CARDIFF V. GLAMORGAN LEAGUE. CARDIFF'S OPENING MATCH. Cardiff opened their season to-day by meet* ing an eleven selected from the Glamorgan League. The weather was gloriously fine, and the ground looked wonderfully well. Cardiff turned out a strong side, and there was every prospect of tall scoring on such a capital wicket. Some of the chosen eleven of the league failed to turn out. the two notable absentees being A. B. Jones and Ha-cker, of Plymouth Works. Oliver Morgan cao-tained the visitors, and, winning the toss. gave the first knock to Cardiff. T. L. Whit. tington and Tudor Lewis opened the innings to the bowling of Oliver Morgan and Jim Williams. The first run came from Whit- tington's bat, and 30 more runs had been added when Delbridge was brought on in place of Williams, whose eight overs bad cost 20 runs. Lewis, who had played very carefully for 16 runs, was beaten by a good ball from Morgan, the first wicket falling for 36. H. B. Letcher failed to stay, and wag out 1 b w for 3. T. L. Whit-tingtoii and Vernon Hill resumed after lunch, and the ex-captain, after start- ing with a brace and a single, hit three fours in succession. The fielding of the League men was surprisingly good, very few runs being given awa.y. The two batsmen looked like staying, and knocked up runs at. a clink- like p?oe. Whtttington played with admirable ease, timing .,nd placing the ball beautifully The total was four runs short of the 100 when Jim Williams returned to the attack, and a crisp cut to the boundary by Bill sent up the 100. Whibtington completed his 50, with- out bavinsf made a mistake, after an hour and a haJf's batting. There were 8tm only two wickets down, and the total had mounted to 124. when J. D. Phillip, who relieved Oliver Morgan, after he h:d bowled twenty. one overs, and taken one wicket. Hill liked the new bowler, and scored eight runs off his first over. He completed his 50 in half as rri,,ny minutes, and then sent a ball from Pmllips over the pavilion. Runs were piled on at a rattling pace, Vernon Hill treating the bowling with scant respect and finding the boundary time after time. At 74 he opened his shoulders to Delbridge, and, miss- in,- ?a ball, had his wickets spreadeagled. 'W-[h7u. ,jington s share at this stage of the total of 157 vvae exwtlv 60. The pace slowed down after G. E. CoTding had joined Whittington. but the latter, who was playing delightful cnokct, livened mat-t?i-s up with a few boun- criolE,-t, which placed him in the position of bop scorer. Bertie Hughes was tried with the s( ¥*r? r\ to no purpose. Whittington went on merrily until he was eleven runs short of his century, and then he spooned a ball to nud-oi). off Delbridge—198-4-89. Cording, who had been joined by T. Miller, brought the total to £ 200 with a pull to the pavilion boundary. Cording was bowled with a full- pitcher from Delbridge at 211. Miller and Guy Thackeray fairly oollared the bowling for a time, rarus coming faster than eveor. Thackeray, who played the right game bv hitting out was bowled by Deltrridge and the innings was declared closed with the tall of the sixth wicket at 247. The League men were given an hour and three-quartersi in which to make the necessary runs The Leaguers made a noor start aga,ingt the bowling of Preedy and Nuh. the former sending down his first over for CanUf{ a?    P"Dfe-%ional. In his second tJtPJ, ]C  hot return from Mulvev, one of the best barmen on the side. and in the third over he bowled Jack Mulvey all over his wicket. Preedy was bit for four by Bert Hughes, bat with his ngxt ball he took the batsman's off-stick. T. L. lvhjtting CARDIFF. T. L. Whjttin..n, c G. Davi-, b Delbridee M Tucior Lewis, b 0. Mom,.n 16 H. B.

PAGAN'S V. ST. DYFRIG'S. Having played a few village games recently to get in swing, the St. Fagan's team opened their season with the outside world by taking on St. Dyfrig's. The groundsmen had pre- pared a splendid wicket, and left nothing to be desirect from a batsman's point of view. The visitors, having won the toss, elected to take first knock. J. Massage and W. Thomas opened the defence, while the attack was entrusted to Douglas Smith and W. Spiller. When the batsmen had knocked up eight runs Thomas was dismissed. Three runs later J. R. Tait was dismissed. Stone fol- lowed, but soon lost Massage, who was beaten by Smith. Field joined Stone, but failed to stay, having to be content with a hit for two. Stone hit out well all round the wicket, but so far had failed to get anyone to stay with him, Matthews next falling for a duck. When S. Tait joined Stone a useful stand was made, the latter, playing in good style,! was applauded when he had completed the half-century. C. Culvcrwell relieved Spiller when tho score had reached 70, but, though the run-getting slackened, the men kept up their ends well. At 89 S. Tait was run out, these batsmen having brought the total up from 27 before being parted. A. Jones filled the vacancy, and, having scored 4, was sent ba,ck by a "yorker" from W. Spiller. Stone, having placed 73 to his credit without a chance, was bowled by Smith, who had gone on to bowl in place of Culverwell. The re- maining batsmen gave some trouble, but scored slowly, and tho innings closed with the total at 116. At five o'clock Trevor Preece and. C. Spiller went to the wickets to open the St. Fagan's innings. Score:- ST. DYFRIG'S. J. Massage, b Smith 4 M. Thomas, bSmith 5 J. R. Tacit. b W. Spuller 0 A. J. Stone, b Smith 73 r.

I rootbaii. SOUTH WALES AScOOiATION I Alteration in Rules The annual general meeting 01 me ooutn Wales and Monmouthshire Football Associa- tion was held this afternoon at the Alex- andra Hotel, Cardiff, to consider alterations and amendments to rules. In the unavoid- able absence of Colonel Morgan Lindsay (pre- sident), Mr. G. L. Watkins was voted to the chair. Mr. G. Mercer (chairman of the committee) was the first to propose amendinentfi. He suggested to add to Rule 13: "This applies to all games under the jurisdiction and sanction of this association, be they cup or friendly or in connection with any sanctioned league, charity, or benefit competition (Pembroke- shire league matches specially excepted)." This addition to Rule 13 did not require any long speech, and he could not conceive of any opposition. The addition was agreed to. To Rule 17 the words were added (again at Mr. Mercer's suggestion): "Or be dealt with as the committee may decide." It was agreed to add to Rule 41: "Any club failing to comply with this rule shall be liable to a fine of 6s. No argument could bo raised (Mr. Mercer thought) to his proposed addition to Rules 53 and 81: The home club must provide the ball and for the marking of the ground." Agreed. On the motion of Mr. Mercer, strongly supported by Mr. Charles Axtell (the hon. secretary and treasurer) it was agreed to strike out 4 and insert 14 in Line 6, Rule 7. I -n- vmv R.TILES. Mr. Mercer proposed t-he following new rules, which were adopted:— All leagues ehall consist of properly qualified and affiliated clubs. Each league affiliatooto and sanctioned by this associa- tion shall be confined to a. definite area, and ehall neither extend nor a-lter such area, nor alter its constitution or rules without the sanction of this association. Permission for any proposed new league must first be obtained from this association. No affiliated club shall be a member of any league which has not been sanctioned, and which is not also affiliated. AM leagues ehall (forward to the secretary of the association on or before September 1 a return in accordance with form-41) Namo of league, (2) Year of formation, (3) Name and address of secretary, (4) List of clubs. All affiliated leagues or clubs, members of any league, shall have the right of appeal to this association. All previous arrangement and agreements with any leagues, wihich agreements are not in accordance with these rules, are hereby Mr. B. Graham. (Eblbw Va-le Association) pro- nosed some drastic alterations to senior cup competition rules, to alter the system of play. ing the matches .in each round, substitu- ting home-and-avray games instead of the one "knock-out" match, as now played. The adoption of the proposition necessitated alterations to several rules, and tfiose Mr. Graham submitted, pointing to the succesB of the scheme in Cumberland. Only Mr. Graham and another voted for the alterations. _——

I BOWLING OPENING OF THE MACKINTOSH GREEN. The Mackintosh Bowling Green was opened this afternoon in glorious weather by Mr. F. Vivian. Amongst those present were the Lady Mayoress (Mrs. Hughes), Mr. John Thomas, Mr. E. Rodway, Mr. T. Roberta, Mr. S. Tresider, Mrs. Caetle Robinson, tOO Rev. aiifl Mrs. Oetaean, Peaiarth, and others. Mr. Vivian, im opening the gTeen, said bowls had almost been unknown in Wadea until a few years ago. Now it had made rapid strides, and was ooming into popular favour. He commented upon the excellent record the club had had for the past two yearns. It was the third time the champ iou- ship had come to Cardiff, and the record of the club for the last year was :-Pla,yed, 18 gaones; won, 16; drawn, 1; lost. i-a very excellent record. He regretted tho absence of Mr. Sidney Sparks, and also the mayor, who was unable to be present; but the mayoress had kindly consented to attend. The Rev. Sutherland moved a vote of thanks, which was seconded by Mr. Jotham, and carried unanimoueiy.

Soon afterwards three men were quickly disposed of by smart work in the field by the visiting team. The eoaro in the second round mounted r&pkUv, Cornlsix, Fish, and 1-ianlltngs tihUnung & four eaofe. Poor work by the visitors enabled Fish to piay lhavoc, two 4'e being a,ga.tn regist-erwi in his favour. M han the score had reached 64, F.

STORES SCAKOFTLJ I Dismissal of Mr. RESIGNATION NOT ACCEPTED. Two Newtons Also to Go. A meeting of the Cardiff Health Committee to further inquire into the scayen gins depart- ment and the receipt and distribution of stores was held at the Town-hall Lirs aI<.or- noon. It was expected that Mr. Woosey would attend to make answer to the several allega- tions that have been made against him during the inquiry, but before the meeting commenced it was reported that he had gone off in a huff." This subsequently turned out to be correct-at any rate, he did not appear when called. Subsequently a letter was read from Mr. Woosey resigning his position. MR. WOOSEY ABSENT. The Chairman opened the meeting by say ing: I think Mr. Woosey has been invited to attend this meeting this afternoon in order that he may be further examined in refe- rence to this inquiry. If Mr. Woosey is here we shall be very pleased to have him present that the committee may proceed with his examination. Mr. Chappell: He is not here. Mr. Cornish (chief committee clerk) then left the room to call Mr. Woosey, and, returning in a minute or so, said, He is not here, sir." The Chairman: I am not much surprised that Mr. Woosey is not in attendance to-day, although we carefully sent him an invitation to be present. As I came up the stairs into the office Mr. Woosey came running after me and placed in my hands this letter, saying at the same time that it was his resignation. Under these circumstances I feel strongly, having regard to our inquiries-I have made up my mind for some considerable time past -there is only one course open to the com- mittee, having regard to the facts that have come before us. I feel a very serious duty devolves upon me, and I have not the slightest hesitation in proposing this resolu- tion:- Having regard to the unsatisfactory and contradictory statements made by Mr. John Woosey, the superintendent of the health (scavenging) department, during the progress of this inquiry; to the admis- sion by him and discovery by this com- mittee of an improper method of ordering goods and certifying accounts for pay- ment; to the unseemly manipulation of the wages b'1ok; and to the inefficient and care- less administration disclosed by the in- quiry, it is resolved that he be dismissed from his position forthwith, and that his salary cease from the da.te of such dis- missal. Resolved: That the chairman be desired to ask leave of the council on Monday next to have these proceedings read and dealt with thereat. Councillor Renwick seconded the resolution moved by the chairman. ANOTHER SECRET DIVULGED Councillor Chappell, speaking in support, said he did not see himself how he could do otherwise. He thought it better for every- body. Their confidence in Mr. Woosey had been misplaced through hie mismanagement. He was anxious to support the resolution for this reason. Mr. Woosey had bolstered up his position in a very cowardly way in making statements about himself and Alderman Jenkins that were absolutely untrue. He and Alderman Jenkins had never been in his office together. They had never been invited to his office, neither had he been invited to go there by himself, save once, and that was some time ago. He had only had conversation with Mr. Woosey there in tho chair, and on the landing, and be had kept that faithfully from his collea.rea. as he (Mr. Woosey) had asked him to do. He did not intend to keep it a secret any longer. Mr. Woosey said to him: For God's sake, Mr. Chappell, make it as light as you can for me! Mr. Chappell replied that no one could help him, but that he would have to make a, clean breast of it. No one on the committee oould give stronger support to the resolution than he did himself. Alderman Jacoba then read Mr. Woosey's letter of resignation. Park View, Penhill-road, Cardiff, May 6, 1905. To the Chairman a.nd Members of the Health Committee.—Gentlemen,—I am in receipt of Newton's evidence, and, as I was not allowed to be present when same was ta.ken, and several other witnesses were examined in my absence, I consider I have been most unjustly treated after 24 years, service with one irregularity. I, therefore, beg to tender my resignation in accordance with conditions of my ftppoitment (one month's notioe).-Yours faithfully, J. WOOSEY. Mr. Renwiok: I would like to say that when we decided to see Mr. Newton I saw Mr. Woosey, and suggested to him that he should go &lso. He said. "I am Not Going, All I want is a oopy of the minutes, so that I could put them before my solicitor." The Chairman: I thought when it was dis. cussed that we d-ecid3d not to invite him. Mr. Renwick: I never mentioned it to the committee. I told him afterwards that the committee had decided not to ask him, and Mr. Woosey said he was not going. The Mayor: I should like to point out that Dr. de Vere Hunt had colled in Dr. Vacheil, and after consultation it was decided that it waa of the greatest importance that New- ton's evidence should be taken. There waa all the difference in the world between an arrangement of that sort and taking a man's depositions. WOOSEY & NEWTON DISMISSED The resolution was carried unanimously. The Chairman: I really think, after care- ful consideration, that Newton has lied to this committee, and directly misLed the com- mittee. He made statements at the previous meeting which were contrary in character to the evidence he gave us on Thursday, and we cannot retain him any longer. If we did so it would be a gross injustice to ourselves and unfair to those who would have to deal with him hereafter. That being so we have no alternative but to dismiss him. I there- fore move the folowing resolution:— In view of the contradiotory statements of Mr. George Newton amd his acknowledgement of the improper ordering of goods, it is resolved that he be dismissed from his posi- tion forthwith, and that his salary cease from the date of such dismissal. Mr. Chappell: I second that. The Chairman: Any observations? Nothing being said the resolution Was put, and carried unanimously. Mr. Chappell: It Ï8 not any question of spite, but we have Suspended Newton s Son who was in charge of the motors. He admitted that he was not a fititer, and something must be done, if not already done, to employ a competent man to look after these motors. This young man has made statements which are not consistent with w-hat has been proved. He is not a trained workman, and, therefore, not oompetent to liold that job. I move that he be dismissed and that hiB salary oease from the date of his dismissal. Dr. Smith eeoonded, and the resolution was carried unanimously. The Chairman was then authorised to bring the minutes of this meeting before the council on Monday next. Mr. Chappell: I take it the resolution will be the same as the others, and take effect forthwith. This was agreed to. DAVEY REINSTATED. Mr. Ohappell said they would have to make drastic changes, and he thought Daveysboould be reinstated, but in a reduced position-at a workman's wage instead of a foreman's wage. He had not been summoned to that committee, but he had attended voluntarily every time. He was now still walking the streets under suspension at 55s. a week. At the last meeting he told the mayor what then appeared to be a falsehood, but there was an explanation. Young Newton had parted with the key to Davey's son without letting the old man know. By resolution of the committee Davey and Parsons were ordered to be degraded, but that had never been carried into effect by Mr. Woosey. On the suggestion of the Mayor, it waa resolved that Davey be reinstated. An instruction was then given to the borough engineer to carry into effect the committee's previous resolution. The Mayor: What have we done with the letter of resignation? Mr. Chappell: I move that we acknowledge the receipt of it, and say that we passed a resolution prior to it. The Mayor: That Mr. Woosey be informed that prior to the reading of this letter he was dismissed. Mr. Chappell said there were other matters into which, no doubt, the committee would be anxious to inquire. The department was thoroughly disorganised. The borough engineer was carrying out its super- visBcn without any ufltsvictions to remedy > a single ttrnw. He thought they ought to consider a stock-book which Mr. Ha-rpur was preparing, and consider also who should be placed in charge of the stock. This might be dene before the inquiry was concludcd, as every delay maant expense. Mr. Davis: A sub-committee was appointed to inquire into the system of books and form a new system. The Chairman: At this next special meet- ing that I will call, we will discuss all tbeee matters. Mr. Davis: We appointed this sub-com. mittec The Chairman: We have had enough of sub. committees. For goodness' sake, don't talk about them. Dr. Smith suggested adjourning the meet- ing as there were two raembers absent. Councillor Nicholls suggested that the next meeting should be held on Thursday at three o'clock, and tins was agreed to. The meeting then adjourned.

WH., AT DOES IT MEAN? Strange Action by a Councillor. '-EXPRESS" COPY BOYS LOCKED IN A ROOM. Our Reporter Obstructed A singular incident occurred at the beginning of the Cardiff stores inquiry this afternoon. Three Express boys were sent to the council chambers, as usual, to bring copy from our reporters to the office. While they were waiting for the proceedings to begin Councillor Dr. Smith came. to where they were standing, and said Come with me downstairs to the members' room. The boys followed him downstairs, and plac- ing them in the room, he said: Stay for a minute till you are called, and, leaving them, closed the door. The boys tried to get out, but found the door was locked. When our reporters had copy ready there were no boys at hand, and it was only after a search which laated a few minutes that the caretaker found them in the room. Our readers will, of course, appreciate the importance of oopy being expeditiously con- veyed to the offioe, and how such act-ion as that of Dr. Smith's would interfere with our arrangements. It will be interesting to know what explanation Dr. Smith has to offer. When we had ascertained the facts from all the boys, we despatched a couple of our reporters to look for Dr. Smith and invite him to explain, but up to the time of writing he has not been found. HALLKEEPERS STATEMENT. In reply to questions by one of our staff, the hallkeeper (Mr. Ashley) said that Dr. Smith called to him from half-way down the stairs and told him to put the boys in the members' room. I MR. GREEN'S STATEMENT. I When asked about the circumstances by one of our staff, Mr. Greem (the haJJ porter) said the boys were brought down ana put in the room, and afterwards the hall-keeper (Mr. Ashley) inquired where they were, and, being told they were in the members' room, let them out. I WAS THIS ANOTHER ATTEMPT AT DELAY? Just after the meeting Wa.6 over Dr. Smith attempted to prevent one of our reporters leaving the council chamber and accused him of having his gloves. The reporter, who had a. strong notion (which afterwards proved correct) as to the identity of the man who conveyed the boys away, simply brushed Dr. Smith out of the way and told him to search for his gloves. As a matter of fact, somebody did throw across to the Evening Express reporters a pair of gloves, which were immediately placed on a window sill behind the plaoe where they were sitting. AN UNPLEASANT IMPRESSION. In view of the known desire of some of the membero of the committee to keep the in- quiry pnvatte, the incidents described above leave a very unpleasant impression.

MOTOR-CAR SMASH. I ALARMING CARDIFF ACCIDENT A Doctor Tossed into the Air A collision between a motor-car and some cyclists took plaoe at Cardiff on Friday after- noon. Mr. G. A. Seccombe, of Queen-street, wae making a trial run in his new car, having for his driver a man of some years' expe- rience. The car was travelling past the power-station in Newport-road, when a bunoh of seven or eight cyclists were seen riding in the same direction. Mr. &eccombe's driver sounded his signal horn, and tne party of cyclists divided, some keeping to the left and others to the right. The oar slowed down, but just a-a it got abreast of the riders one of them, Mr. Stibbs, manager of the Ediswann Electric Light Company. Westgate-etreet, seems to have turned to get to the left side of the road, and the car knocked him down. In trying to avoid Mr. fstibbs the car also came into contact with Dr. Macaulay, of the Cardiff Infirmary. Neither was seriously I injured, and after being taken to the infir. mary. Mr. Stibbs was able to proceed home. MR SECCOMBE'S STORY Mr. Seccombe said: We were going along the Newport-road, and saw seven or eight oycliste in front, some on the extreme right hand, some on the 1-eit. We blew the horn in order to get thoea on the right hand side over to the left, so that we might and approaohed them elowly, and intended to paas between the two groups. We were almost up level with the cyclists, when one of the men cn the right attempted to cross in front of our motor. In crossing, our motor struck him and knocked him down, and in the effort to avoid him we went into Dr. Macaulay arfd knocked him down, and then the motor came to a. standstill at onae. We found that Dr. Macaulay was a bit cut, and I took him myself down to the infir- ma-ry, leaving the first man, who did not appear anuch hurt, to follow on. He was accompanied to the infirmary by a police- man, and a little later, after his injuries had been dressed, went home. I Shot Into the Air Mr. Huggins, one of the cyclists, who escaped uninjured, told a reporter:—"Mr. and Mrs. Stibbs were going to Newport, and I picked them up by the power station. Soon afterwards we heard the horn of a motor-car behind us, and we were then within a few feet of the other cyclists. I turned to the left, so that the others might go on the right side, and they went so much to the side that they were actually in the gutter. Somehow or other the oar also turned the same way as they dSd. At that time I was near the middle of the road on the left, and Mr. and Mrs. Stibbe well on the right side, so that there would be ample room for the car to pass between us." "But why did you take the wrong side, Mr. Huggins?" our representative asked. "Well, there were 60 many of us, and ae there was nothing coming down the road, I knew it would be cafe, so I went on the oppo- site side. Whatever caused the car to go on the near side I don't know, I am sure. The car went right up on the pavement and nearly into the field." "Was it going very fast?" "Well, I should say between thirty and forty miles an hour-& good epeèd-but then the road was straight, you know, for a. long distance* In reply to further questions, Mr. Huggins said that Dr. Macaulay, who seemed to be the first struok, was shot into the air by the force of the compact- H^ fell with his machine, &nd the car caught him a seoond time and lifted him. Mr. Strbbs's clothes were torn to rib- bons, and his bicycle was also damaged. Mrs. Stibbs was not injured, but was very much upset and frightened. Dr. Macaulay, when seen by our represen- ta.tive this morning, aippeared to be making ste&dy progress towards recovery. He was lying in bed with his head swathed in ban- dages, and seemed rather weak from the I shook. He hoped to be up in two or three ?ya-

| MOTOR-CAR TRAGEDY? 1 8 ————— A SPANISH CHAUFFEUR IN J I THE DOCK I ICharged with Causing Death of; a Boy. I Rocco Carnalba5, the Spanish chauffeur, in the employ of Mr. Hildebrand Harmsworth, was again to-day brought before the Hemel Hempstead bench on a charge of causing the death of William Henry Clifton, aged four years and a half, in the village of Markyate, on April 18, by knocking him down with a motor-car, of which he was at the time the driver. Mr. F. Harvey Murphy again repre- sclnt-ed the Crown; Mr. Arthur Gill defended prisoner. Mr. R. D. Muir watched the pro- ceedings for Mr. Hildebrand Harmsworth, and Mr. F. Willis-Durrant appeared for Messrs. A. Garbett and Mr. A. Richards, who wore occupants of the oar at the time, and who are electors in the Parliamentary Division (South Shropshire; 1vr which Mr. Hildebrand Harmsworth is a candidate Superintendent Frogley represented the police. Mr. A. H. Longman again presided over a full bench. The accused was escorted to the town-hal: shortly after ten, and took a seat in front of the barrier which divides the public from j die officials of the court. Carnalbas, who it of a quiet and unassuming demeanour, oon- versed for some moments with his solicitor. A new legal representative appeared in the person oi Mr. H. A. Statton, who hcid a. brief on behalf of the Highways Protection League. The court was again crowded. Before evidence was called a point was raised as to whether witnesses should remain in court, Mr. Hildebrand Harmsworth being for the first time present. The result of the consultation was that Mr. Harmsworth and several other persons who had been sitting on a bench a.t t-he back of the oourt retired. Mr. Murphy at once called Edwin Cooper, labourer, who, it will be recollected, was for some time under examination before the Markyate coroner at the prolonged investiga- tion last Monday. Some time was spent in eliciting from witness the exaot spot from which on April 18 he saw the approach of the motor along the main thoroughfare of Markyiate village. The oar was going vary fast." It made one signal by the horn, but," said the witness, I oouid detect no reduction in speed as it came up to me. One of my horses gave a jump, but nothing out of the way. I b-eard someone call out some seconds &!ter the car passed, I did not hear the horn again sound. A male and female voice called out. I saw a man named Durrani, and he was the m"J1 who shouted. I saw no other woman there except the aunt of the boy, Mis Clifton. Durrant was shouting aild whistling. I ran in front of my horses, and. looking back, I saw a boy lying in the road. A Breeze Did you see the car stop?—No. As far as you could see did it slacken speed? —I saw no difference in the speed, and I watched it for half-a-mile. If it is suggested that the car stopped 50 yards away, is it true or false? Witness (emphatically): It is false. Did you eee anybody stand up in the car? —I did not. lir. A. Gill: I never made any such sugges- tion. Mr. Murphy (to witness): You were at the inquest on Monday, and you heard that sug- gestion. Mr. A. Gill: I never made it, and I object to the introduction here of anything that took place at the inquest. Mr. Murphy: You put that upon me, and for that reason I ask the question- Mr. A. Gill: I repeat I made no such sug- gestion. The Chairman (impatiently): Never mind, gentlemen, let us get on. Mr. Murphy (to witness): At -any rate you said no person in the car stood up, or held up his hands? Witness: No. Further examined, Coope said that a motor- car had since been pointed out to him. To the best of his belief it was the same, but he could not swear positively to it. lie saw the child picked up, and there was blood j lying in the road. lie did not notice either of the occupants of the car look back, A surveyor's assistant (Mr. T. A. Light- body) was called to prove a plan, from which it appeared that the width of the roadway where the child was killed was, from & cottage indicated on the one side to the edge of the green on the other, 27ft. Sin. Mr. A. Gill put some questions to the previous witmee6 for the purpose of ascertain ing tiie exact spot at which hie team. of horses drew up after the motor had disappeared. Witness knew tà., child by sight, but did not on this occasion notice him or any other children on the grass beside the roadway. You would not like to Ba.1 the candid not slacken its speed as it approached you?—No, I would not. Mr. Murphy: Did it or did it not alacken? Witness (rubbing his chin hesitatingly): No, I don't suppose it did. (Laughter.) Mr. Hildebrand Harmsworth was next called. He was conspicuous in a. dark grey suit and light green tie, and it waz notioed that Carnalbas wore a necktie of the same hue. Replying to Mr. Murphy, Mr. Harms- worth said he was the owner of the motor- car No. A 384L Oaraaibafi had been in his employ fourteen months, and had been down in the Wellington Division—where witness wae the Unionist candidate—with the car for aibout two months. He gave instructions to Mr. Groom (his secretary) that the car was to be sent back to town on the 17th of April. He did not then know Messrs. Garbett and Richards. Mr. Murphy: Were you aware until this event happened that they had in fact oorne up to London on your carP-No. I first heard of it from my chauffeur on Wednesday, the 19th. that there were two gentlemen in the car. It was (witness continued) in a. newspaper that I first saw there had been an accident at Markyate. I saw Carnalbas on the 19th, and I said I hoped be had been in no acci- dent. Prisoner said, Oh, no." I asked him who was in the car on its journey up, and he then referred to the two gentlemen, whose names I did not know. Previously, I learnt from my secretary that the two passengers were Messrs. Garbett and Richards. This was late on the Wednesday night or early on the Thursday morning. I telegraphed to them, and I did not mention to Oarnalbas the substance of the telegram. I. however, asked him if he had been in an accident, and he again denied it. It was in oonsequenoe of his saying Se left Coventry at three o'clock on the 18th tha.t I sent telegrams to Messrs. Garrett and Richards. I did not com- municate the substance of their answers, but I gave instructions fo:- turther inquiries. Eid you get anything definite about the matter from anybody until Saturday, the 22nd?—No. What was the source of the first informa- tion?—A newspaper gave a description of the car, and I thought it was very similar to mine. I went to the Euston stall, ana there saw Carnalbas and Me&srs. Garbett and Richards, with their solicitor. In oon se- quence of the oommunicatons they made, I asked the prisoner, "Why did you not tell me this before?" Caxnalbas replied that he had a recollection of touching a child between Dunstable and St. Albans, but he did not associate th&t incident with th: published accounts of what happened at Markyate. The prisoner further stated that a boy ran out from behind a haycart., and that at the time the speed of the motor did not exceed ten or twelve miles an hour. The first step witness took after ascertaining the facts was to communicate with Scotland Yard. Before retiring, Mr. Harmsworth de- sired to inform the bench that this matter which he did his best to clear up, had been a great grief to him. He expressed his sorrow at the mother's loss of her child. Mrs. Maod Louisa Timberlake and George Rose Puddephatt were next cabled. The last- named, who is a carrier at Markyate, has already given his evidence before the coroner. His appearance in court to-day was interest- ing, principally by reason of the fact that he identified Mr. Garbett, who came into court for the purpose of giving the witness an opportunity of saying whether or not he was one of the occupants of the car. Mr. Gill, in cross-examining, asked witness, with more than a suggestion of satire, if the car was not going 45 to 50 miles an hour. To this, witness replied, If any one knew the truth it was going nearer 60. (Laughter.) I never saw a car go like it before." Puddephatt was followed by Miss Clifton, the child's aunt, who repeated her evidence given before the coroner. Miss Clifton has appeared most distressed all through the pre- I sent investigation, and was attired in deep mourning. During the cross-examination by Mr. A. Gill A Painful Scene occurred. MJss Clifton. Bank into a, otadr and sobbed violently, the Chairman considerately suggeeted that the court might adjourn for ha?-M-hour. Md Mim Clifton was aesist?d from the t?wn-h&u by the MIW=,. private door. By the time court resumed, after luMbeca at 2.30, Mias Clifton had euS- ciently recoTered to be able to answer eome further questions of counsel. Carnalbas was committed for trial, bail I beinf allowed.
