THE MOROCCO WAR
THE MOROCCO WAR An Arab Ultimatum "FRENCH TO BE EXTER- MINATED." A caMegram from Casa Blanca Paye that a Sorrier arrived from the Arab Kabyles to see General Drude. He told the French commander that unless the French bin-rendered immediately the Arabs in great force would destroy the French and the town. Ko reply was given to this message.— Neuter. The cruiser Gassini, which has arrived at Gibraltar for coal and provisions, reports ttiat all was quiet at Casa Blanca when she eft, although hostile tribes were mobilising laW-way between that town and Mazag-an, tad it was feared that they would attack he later place.

It is believed that the French olony will be forced to leave the town in few days. GENERAL DRUDE ON THE I SITUATION. special correspondent of the "Temps" q, Casa Blanca has been successful in obtain- klg an interview with General Drude. The French commander was loud in his ffaises of the bravery shown by the Arab Warriors, who, he said, seemed entirely heed- less of their lives by the manner in which they faced the fire of the troops. Up to the present, however, the engagements which had taken place could scarcely be described as scything more than skirmishes, except, perhaps, those of the 8th and 10th met., on both of which occasions the enemy suffered very heavily. It had, be said, been impos- sible accurately to estimate the strength of the tribesmen opposed to him, but it was behead to be about 20,000. Th general went on to say tha.t he was ^rw^+- two or ???s We are promiæd some fighting for the lay after to-morrow," he said" and I hope ,h Promise will be fulfilled. It will be good lor the Arabs to oome into contact with the fire of our batteries, and the prestige of urope will ga-in thereby." General Drude stated that he had not yet received any special instructions with regard to Operations in conjunction with the Spanish troops. He would, however, very willingly fight at their head. Questioned as to the morale of the troops Under his command. General Drude said the fcpirit of the men was excellent. Our one great enemy." he said, is alcohol. It was terrible to see +he quantities of liquor sent to the men from everywhere. I have issued the strictest orders in the camp, but in spite tf all some rascal occasionally manages to get into the lines with the fatal stuff." The troops, however, were perfectly light- hearted, and, in his opinion, tranquillity would speedily be restored.—Central News. JEWS SOLD FOR SLAVES. A n..L telegram, dated Thursday, says tha.t the Jews from Caea Blanca record un- heard-of atrocities by the Moors when they sacked the town. They tell of tortures, hunger, thirst, and outrages upon their wives and daughters before their eyes. The most prominent Jews, kaids, and rabbis are stripped of their clothing, and have a rope round their necks. The Moors are selling them for slaves. It is known that diseen- sions have broken out among the tribes. The rebels are trying to sell their booty, and have declared that the women and girl slaves whom they have taken will be returned to their families on payment of 1^i6oms .-—Renter.

THE RUINED TOWN. I A survey of the town shows that the damage I "lone has not been exaggerated, though the of life may have been over-stated. Rows of shops filled with merchandise a few days ago are now heaps of smouldering rums. Nothing remains. First the Araba Moted the houses, then the 6urviving Jews. After them came the turn of the worst elernen1:6 of the Spanish population, and fin Foreign Legion took aJl that was eft. They have, however, since been made ? ?

REFUGEES IN ENGLAND. The first European refugees from Casa I 1Uanea arrived at Plymouth on Saturday on tho P. and O. steamer Mooltana. Thev were Mr. and Mrs. W. T. Bolton, with two children, and Mrs. Furneau, the latter being a native of London. A terrible story was related by Mr. Bolton, who is practical!tr destitute. "We have lost everything; all in the world Possess, except what little we stand Upright in," lie said. "My wife and little children have uardly clothes. Still, we have e6caPed, and are here to tell the tale." Early on the day a.fter the Frenoh Marines landed Mr. Bolton was given five minutes to cleoar out, and with his family he escaped to the French Consulate, which was the only ""e of safety.

LAST TEST MATCH.
LAST TEST MATCH. S. Africans' Prospects. I WILL THE VISITORS SHARE HONOURS? The third and last Test match with the South Africans begins to-day at the Oval. It is a match of more importance than many people suppose. Here is the position. Three Tests were arranged between England and South Africa. The first, at Lord's, was abandoned in consequence of the weather, and Eng- land ,which had the game well in hand, was denied the fruits of victory. The result, such as It was, gave ns nothing. It meant everything to the Colonials, however, for they had to win only one of the remaining matches to claim an equal share of inter- national honours. And they very nearly succeeded in the second Test at Leeds. As all the world I fnows, England just scrambled home be- tween the showers by 53 runs. The following are the men who will be in attendance to-day at the Oval:— I ENGLAND. R. E. POSTER (Worcestershire), captain. C. B. PRY (Sussex). G. L. JE&SOP (Gloucester). N. A. KNOX (Surrey). J. N. ORA WFORL, (Surrey). HAYWARD (Surrey). TYLDESLEY (Lancashire). BRAUND (Somerset). BLYTHE (Kent). LILLEY (Warwickshire). HIRST (Yorkshire). RHODES (Yorkshire). SOUTH AFRICANS. P. W. SHERWELL (Tramsvaal), captain. J. H. SINCLAIR (Transvaal). L. J. TANCRED (Transvaal). W. A. SHALDERS (Transvaal). R. O. SOHWARZ (Transvaal). M. HATHORN (Transvaal). G. C. WHITE (Transvaal). A. E. VOGLER (Transvaal). G. A. FAULKNER (Transvaal). H. SMITH (Transvaal). Rev. O. D. ROBINSON (Natal). A. D. NOURSE (Natal). J. J. KOTZE (Western Province). S. J. SNOOKE (Western Province). S. D. SNOOKE (Western Province). Writing in a Sunday contemporary, Mr. C. B. Fry saye:- "I do not think that their (the "oniaw) team is as strong as our best, but the diffe- rence is not enough to leave them with no ohance of beating ns. Far from that. Looking at the South African team quite dispassionately, no judge of the game can fail to recognise that it is strong enough in batting to make on a good wicket, having won the toss, a score large enough to put the loss of a three days' match out of the question; and this against the best bowling which either England or Australia has had during the last five years. Their bowling is curious and unique, and might on its day of days account for amy batting team on any wicket, good or bad, for a very small score. Obviously, euch a. team plays England on level terms, even if the best results of which it is genuinely capable do not happen to appear in any of tahe three test matches." Hours of Play The hours of play are as follows--Fil-st day, commence 11.30, lunoh 1.30. draw stumps 6.30; second and third days, commflhce 11 o'clock, lunch 1.30, draw stumps 6.30.
FISH EGGS AT BREAKFAST I
FISH EGGS AT BREAKFAST I More Nutritious Than Those of Hens, Says Official Report Dogfish, eggs may in course of time oust the familiar hen's eggs from the breakfast- taible and election contests. Mr. E. T. Thorpe, the principal chemist at the Government laboratory, in a. report just issued states that dogfish eggs contain appreciably more nutriment than domestic hen's eggs, and axe therefore a. valuable article of food. Their only drawback is their pronounced fishy taste and smell, which may make them objectionable on the breakfast-table, but all the more effective as weapons at election time. Mr. Thorpe undertook the examination of dogfish eggs in consequence of the depi-eda, tions of the spur dogfish om the southern coasts of Devonshire and Cornwall, amd the efforts that were made to turn thie destructive fish to profitable account. Apart from the possible use of the eggs as food, he thinks that if the supply were sufficient and regular their protein matter and oil might 'be profitably utilised. The dogfish eggs weighs about 3; canoes, and has a thin but tough skm, which acts as the equivalent of the shell of the hem's egg.

CHURCH TOWER JUMP Domestic Ends Her Life in a Curious Way A shocking tragedy ooourred in the village of Saggart, county Dublin, yesterday. A young domestic servant, named Minnie Hunt, wtho had recently become strange in manner, climbed the church tower, looking the door behind her, and sat on the edge of tho parapet shoouting out that she would throw herself if a.n attempt was made to reach her. People remained watching her, horror- striken, until silie suddenJy jumped to the ground. Death was instantaneous, the body being horribly crushed.
FOR LIBERATING A LARK I
FOR LIBERATING A LARK Mr. R. W. Fox-Male, of Plymouth, was sum- moned for the recovery of Li at the Camel- ford County-court, the value of a lark, which, he had liberated, belonging to Mr. Beasley, of Boscastle. Defendant said that, in his opinion, it was a brutal thing to keep wild birds in cages. He offered the plaintiff log. for trespassing in his preserves. He con- sidered the man was asking too muclJ. wlhen he demanded 20s. Judge Granger said that defendant had a.c.ted illegally, and hoped he would not do such a thing again. If a person could liberate birds in the way defendant had done he could liberate all sorts of animals. As a warning to others, he gave judgment for the fuLl amount claimed and costs.
-SAVED 1,000 LIVES_I
SAVED 1,000 LIVES I A new lifeboait for the volunteer crew at Frint-ooi, which arrived from Harwich on Saturday, has been built by voluntatry subscriptions, raised majinly through the efforts of Mr. David Cook, who for many years has been coxswain, of the old boat, the Sailor's Friend. Oook belongs to a. family which has had members in five successive generations engaged in life-saving at sea. His father and grandfather were lifeboatroen, and he bas sons and grandsons with him in the boa,t a-t Frinton. For 140 years the facmil-y ha-ve owned boats and bathing machines, and it is their proud boast that during the whole of that period no one has been drowned while baithing from their machines or rawing or sailing illl their boats. Cook has personally saved without any aid whaitever 105 lives, and has assisted in rescuing 900 others during- his fifty yeara' experienoe as a lifeboatman.

SERIOUS PONTYPOOL CHARGE. I Patrick Sullivan, mag-and-bane gatherer was again brought up on remand at Ponty- pool on Saturday charged with unlawfully wounding Benjamin Small by striking him on the head with a stone at Pontypool on July 24. Dr. R. W. Haslett stated that Small was still in the hospital, and was not yet out of danger, through his skull being fractured, and he did not think it likely that he would be able to appear for another month. The Bench granted a further remand, and offered to admit Sullivan to bail if he could find two sureties.

I Love at First Sight I
I Love at First Sight I I PEERAGE AND STAGE ROMANCE I Stage and peerage have oiuce more joined hands in the bonds of matrimony. It was announced on Saturday that Miss Denise Orrne th,e talented musician and vocalist who us now appearing at the Palace Theatre, had married ""apt a in the Hon. John Reginald Lopes Yarde-Buller, only son and heir of Baron Chureton, of Lupton House, Chureton Ferrers, Brixham, Devon. The future Lady Churston is a daughter of Mr. Alfred Smithens, and is a remarkably pretty girl, twenty-one years of age Yesterday she related to a "Daily Horror" representative the history of this latest romance of the peerage. We have been married four months," she said. You see, we wanted the wedding kept very quiet, and only our immediate family friends werfie told about it, and we asked them to keep it private, which they did. We at last decided to let the general public into the secret, and so we inserted the following advertisement in Saturday's pa.p-ers:- Buller—Smit.lier.—On April 24, before the registrar, Kensington, Captain the Hon. John Yarde-BuUer to Jessie, only daughter of Alfred Smither, Esq. "It was a case of love at firstsight. My husband first saw me on the stage at Daly's Theatre, when I was appearing in The Little Michus,' eighteen months ago. Night after night he occupied one of the boxes, and I soon became aware of his constant presence. "Then he was introduced to me by a friend of mine, and we fell in love with each and became engaged. On April 24 we were mar- ried at the registrar's office at Kensington, and that is the whole story. "Oh, yes, I continued to appear at Daly's Theatre, and even on my marriage day I took my usual part as Illyrine in 'The Lady Dandies.' When 'The Lady Dandies' season came to an end I went to the Palace Theatre, where I am now appearai-ng every night. "No, I do not intend to give up the stage at present, at amy rate. I shall continue to entertain the public to the best of my ability, and my connection with the peerage will make no difference to my professional engagements." Miss Denise Orme, as she will still be known on the sta-ge, has had a highly successful career, although she is so young. When she was only fourteen years old she won the Wesley violin exhibition at the Royal Acad emy of Music She followed up this success by winning the open local scholarship at the Royal College of Music at the age of seventeen, the earliest age at which girls are allowed to take part in this competition. Her first -,ppearanc-, on the stage was at the Alhambra in June, 1905. She created enroll a favourable impression that she was immediately offered the chance of three con- tracts, but her father declined to oonsider tlhem. Later Mr. George Edwardes heard about her talen, and entered into a five years' contract with her, paying her C500 at the time of signing. She is now making more than S2,000 a year.

AN EXCITING SCENE AT I LLANELLY. BOY IN A RIVER: FOUR RESCUERS' NARROW ESCAPE. An exciting eoene was witnessed in the river at Old Castle-road, Llanelly, on Sunday. A little boy of seven, named Isaac, fell into lift. of watar and disappeared in a. whirl- pool. A man named James Rees was passing at the time. and plunged in. He secured the lad. but could not get out of the water himself, and two other men went to his rescue. One of these got into difficulties. Finally two brothers, named Richards, appeared on the scene, and landed them safely. Then one of the Richardses became unconscious, and was brought to the bank in a serious state. In all, four men required attention at the hands of Dr. Samuel Wil- liams. Happily, none of them appeared to be the worse for their exciting expeirienoe.
ISIMPLE SIMON RECALLED I
I SIMPLE SIMON RECALLED I Magistrate Amazed at Success of Confidence Trick. Since the days of Simple Sinuofn I have never hoard of such a thing," was Mr. Plowden's comment on the story told at Mairylobome on Saturday by William Stoned- ham, a man of meams residing at Gower- street. Stoneham said he attended the Keanptom Park races, and, having lost on one of the races, he was condoled with, by James Pearco and William Barnard, both strajngers to him. The latter pretended that he "knew a good thing," and finally he went and, according to his story, put C60, including X20 for Staneham, on a horse which won. They told St-oneham that between them they had won £100, and they acoomlj)=ied the proaeoutor home, where he gave them je20. with the idea that Barnerd should go to the Oxford Club (which does not exist) and arirauge the settlement. Barnard failed to return, amd soon after- wards Pearce loft him. The aocused, who pleaded guilty, were remanded.

VERE GOOLD CALMER. I WILL NOT BE TRANSFERRED TO I AN ASYLUM. The Public Prosecutor at Matrseilles on Saturday received from the prison authori- ties a more satisfactory aoooumt of Vero Goold's condition. He passed a, good night and was less excited. Despite the efforts of his counsel to make it appear that the accused is out of his mind, the judicial authorities do not propose to transfer him to an asylum, baliieving that his violent out- breaks are merely the effect of his crime, and in no way indicate ineanrty. Mxs. Goold is also reported in good health. The victim has now been identified to the satisfaction of the examining Tniajgisbnafce as Mme. Emma Levin, widow (nee Alquist), 48 years of age. As a result of a further search at the Villa Meniaiin, where the murder was com- mitted, the examining magistrate (M.

There is no district in the Prin- cipality more typically Welsh and more loyal to Cymrio aspirations and institutions than the populous area of which Swansea is the hub, and, given fine weathetr, everyone antici- pates an immense, if not a record, gather- ing each day of the week. It is believed that 15,000 people ca-n be comfortably accom- modated in +he substantially-built wooden pavilion in Victoria Park, and it is gratify- ing to know that, even if the "hoavens are telling" in sulky moods, the visitors will be well protected inside the structure. There is an air of eager expectancy about the town that smacks of enthusiastic scenes to follow. Appended is a time-table of the principal events during the week:— MONDAY: 3. 0 p.m.-Op-eni-ng of Arts Exhibition. 7. 0 „ —Cymmrodorion Society. 8. 0 „ —Mayor's Reception.

Welsh Arts and Crafts I The exhibition of arts, crafts, and industries of Wales, whioh has been arranged in connec- tion with the Eisteddfod at St. Gabriel's Church-hall, near the Victoria Park, was opened on Saturday by the Countess of Ply- mouth in the presence of a. number of local notabilities. Mr. Moy Evans, chairman of the committee, presided, and in addition to the countess there were on the platform Lord Glantawe, the Mayor and Mayoress, Mr. and Mrs. D. Harris, Sir John T. D. Llewelyn, the Hon. Odo and Mrs. Vivian, Sir Griffith Thomas, Mr. W. Graham Vivian, Mr. Glyn Vivian, Mr. T. J. Williams, Mr. William Walters, J.P., and Mrs. Walters, Mr. R. E. James (vice-chairman), Mrs. T. D. Griffiths, Mrs. Picton Turbervill, and Mr. William Thomas (Lan). On the floor of the hall a large crowd bad assembled. The Countess of Plymouth, who was heartily cheered, deolJured the exhibi- tion open. She said she thought such a movement as that should be encouraged and assisted by all those who had it in their power to do so. She hoped they would forgive her if she said that the greatest interest attaohed to all that which could be adapted for beautifying one's own home and daily existence, and sho thought all those who could should turn their talent into useful, practical channels rather than to the purely ornamental one. A picture or piece of sculpture or woodwork or embroidery was such that few could arrive at to perfection. But it was possible for them all who tried tneir hands at any of the crafts and arts enumerated in the catalogue to make their own homes bright and beautiful, not by filling them with ordinary ornaments, but by making those things which were of daily use as good as possible in shape and colour. Simplicity and solidity she thought were the two chief things to be borne in mind. Nobody could say it added a ctharm to life to have chairs which, although they were covered with plush, were not solidly or well made, so that if anyone sat down suddenly on them they gave way; a fiowerstand, excessively orna- mented, which upset at the slightest touoh; or tables to much carved that they caught one s drees as one passed by. The thing was to get the shape and colour of the articles in use as good as possible, and not of unpractical or unsuitable shape. Furniture, or pottery, or woodwork, or clothes, or anything else, if of unpractical shape, had never been made more suitable or beautiful by mere ornamen- tation, for that only complicated it. She 8K W beautiful lace before her. She thought that was one of the things they shou.d encourage as much as possible, so many people oould make it, and it went far towards beautifying life. In conclusion she expressed her thanks for their kind reception. Breton Delegates Arrive I Gallant little Brittany" will be well represented at the eisteddfod throughout the week. Her distinguished delegates, eighteen in number, arrived at Swansea on Sunday evening, and they are delighted with the warmth of their reception.

It was feared that, owing to the unpunc- tuality of the steamer, the visitors would not be able to journey to Swansea until to-day (Monday), but by a little diplomacy the deputation from Wales were able to obtain facilities of travel to Reading, and the Lon- doa boat tradn being delayed an hour at Southampton, to atop at Basingstoke, this enabled the party to catch the Paddington train to South Wales. The Bretons were dis- appointed that the Sunday trains did not pass through Bristol, seeing that Madame Moeher, the mother of Brittany" and grand- daughter of the celebrated Welsh-American writer, Jonathan Edwards, was waiting there to join them for Swansea. By another stroke of luck, however, the tele.gro,ph overcame the difficulty, and at Severn Tuaiinel Junction the party were delighted to find Madame Mosher, who is a. venerable, wliite-hadred old lady, awaiting them. Their greetings to her were most profuse, and their happiness at the com-I pletion of the deputation was verv evident,. WELCOME AT CARDIFF. At Cardiff another reception, worthy of the occasion, had been arranged, Alder- man Robert Hughes (president of the Cardiff Cymmrodorion) having invdted the members of the council of the I society and others to be present to meet the train at 5.45 o'clock. The alderman was suppo-rted by Dr. Prichard (vice-presi- dent of the society), Mr. T. Lovell (treasurer). Mr. and Mrs. J. Austin Jenkins, Father Hayde, Dr. Treasure, Mr. Dowi Michael, Mr. J. D. David, Mons. and Madame De Gwelis (son- in-law and daughter of Prof. Bar bier); Mr. J. Price Powell, Mr. and Mrs. Evan Jones, Mr. J. Treharne, Mr. J. Evans, Mr. J. Phillips, &c. When the train approached the platform the Bretons, who had probably been acquainted of the arrangements by Ooohfarf, waved handkerchiefs through the windows, and were delighted to distinguish the group of Cymm-rodorioTi amongst the crowd on the platform by the red dragon bannerottes which they waved in return. There was a rush and a quite informal shaking of hands all round, after which Mons. Even led the singing of "Hen Wlad fy Nhadau," the chorus of whioh waa repeated and token up W_ev-j,o- Xreant, DARING THE* EXDTETNIENT of the moment some of the party were induced to risk the losing of the train and stand at the upper end of the platform to be photographed for the Western Mail," after which Alderman Robert Hughes, speaking in Welsh, introduced the Cymmrodoarion and hoped that the visitors would have a very pleasurable time in the Principality. Mons. Jaffrenou, replying in excellent Welsh, thanked the Cardiff Cymmrodorion for their cordial greetings and hearty wel- come. The Marquis de FEstourbeillon replied in French, his lordship remarking that he was deIi?M? to meet the Welsh of Cardiff again. He added that he had never forgotten the warm welcome he and his compatriots received at their hands dtmng the 1897 Eis- teddfod, and he had ever since had a warm place in his heart for the Principality and its residents. A warning whistle brought every- one baok to the compartments, and the journey was renewed. I SWANSEA AT IAST. On arrival at Swansea, shortly after eight p.m., the Bretons were met by a large crowd at the station, it having been bruited abroad that they were en route from Southampton. They proceeded at once to the Eoyal Hotel, where they were received by ma,ny of the leading eisteddfod officials, and subsequently sat down to dinner, which they were much in need of after their long, tiresome journey. Two of the four ladies of the party are noted Breton singers, and a third is an accom- plished pianiste, and they will probably give a taste of their quality at the mayor's recep- tion this (Monday) evening. It is also hoped that they will have opportunity of gratifying their Welsh friends on other occasions during the week. The president, the marquis, and others of the deputation were interviewed at the Royal Hotel, and they all agreed that they had had a pleasant, but tiresome, journey owing to the slow Sunday trains, but they were all in good health and spirits, and looking for. ward with eager anticipation to the eistedd- fod meetings. MR. LLOYD-GEORGE HOPES TO BE PRESENT. A telegram of inquiry sent to the Board of Trade offices on Saturday brought the follow- ing reply:- Mr. Lloyd-George away to-day. Ho hopes go Swansea unless unavoidably prevented by Parliamentary exigencies.-ClaTk. CYMMRODORION GATHERING.

The Swansea Cymric Society held a suc- cessful meeting on Saturday, when a lecture on "Cymry in America" was delivered by Mr. William ApMadoc, the secretary of the famous World's Fair Eisteddfod and director of music at the Chicago High Schools. The story of the Welsh in the States began, he said, with the liberty-laden Mayflower, m 1620, there being Welshmen on board that vessel. Still, he went further back—as far back as the twelfth century, declaring that the legend of Prince Madoc ap Owain Gwynedd sailing out of Aberffraw and land- ing in America was true. .r'I rTT"'1r"I"r'1o Ax .r J-u.UAJN15 JH (JK Tilii, 1909 I GATHERING.

The deputation will be accompanied by Sir John Williams, Bart., and, probably, the lord-lieutenant of the county (Sir James Drummond, Bart.). The deputations will be heard at 4.30 p.m. on Thursday. The applicants, in addition to Carmarthen, are London Welsh, Llandrindod, and Aberyst- wyth.
BEATIFIC BELFAST. I
BEATIFIC BELFAST. I Belfast is beatifically peaceful. The ladies in Falls-road caught a couple of soldiers in charge of a transport wagon on Saturday night and beat them with pokers till they fled squealing, but otherwise everything is I serene. Nine-tenths of the strikers went back io work on Saturday, and the balance will follow suit this (Monday) morning. It is understood that the city authorities, with commendable sagacity and forethought, are considering the advisability of pulling up the existing footpaths and re-paving them with flags too large to be dug out and used as ammunition. The Very Rev. Father Convery, who took part in repressing the crowd on Tuesday night, asked at St. Paul's Roman Catholic Church on Sunday for the prayers of the congregation for the repose of the souls of the dead. He declared that the trouble had been brought on the city by a few rascals and hooligans, whose entire object was loot and plunder and the destruction of property. The police, he said, are the guardians of law and order, and must be supported, and they must be also allowed to return to the district in peace.

FIRE AT CARDIFF I
FIRE AT CARDIFF I An alarm of fire was received at the Cardiff Fire Brigade Station about nine o'clock on Sunday evening, and on proceeding to Bridge-street Superintendent Geen and his meri found the premises of Mr. Sidney Smith, fruiterer, ablaze. The shop was well alight, and the flames had already burst through the door. A hose was attached to a hydraait close by. and a good supply of water extinguished the conflagration in about half an hour, but not before the shop a,nd its contents were destroyed. The house, which was seriously affected by the heat and smoke, was insured. Mr. Smith and has wife and ohild had left home about seven o'clock, when everything was a.ppa- rently safe. It was rumoured, however, that there was a child in bed in one of the upstair rooms, and Superintendent Geen and his men, gallantly battling with the flames and smoke, got in through an upper window, and satisfied themselves tha.t the supposi- tion was not well founded.

I All-Grades Movement
I All-Grades Movement MR. BELL AND MIDLAND CHAIRMAN Mr. R. Bell, M.P., general secretary of the Amalgamated Society of Railway Servants, addressed large meetings of railwaymen at Peaistone and Mexborough on Sunday, and spoke on the all-grades movement and the demand for official recognition of the society by the rail-way companies. He said that the arguments of the com- panies for refusing to meet the men's repre- eentative^ would not bear discussion. It was said that the society did not represent the whole of the men. It did not, perhaps, exactly represent the majority of those concerned in the great national move- ment, but it represented a sufficient number to make it a powerful organisation, and it w.as not going to be ignored with paltry arguments. Out of 220,000 men employed in the various grades, it had 92,0C0 members. If the railway companies believed the society to be helpless and hopeless, they would some morning wake up and find themselves deluded. Mr. Bell replied at some length to the speech which Sir Ernest Paget delivered at the Midland Railway meeting last Friday. He said he had never claimed to represent the whole of the men, but he did represent those who were members of the Amalgama- ted Society of Railway Servants. He was willing to negotiate for his own members only, and to pgree that concessions should apply to them only. But the companies would not take up that position. With reg.ard to another organisation having approached the company and having repudiated any connection with the Amalgamated Society of Railway Servants, Mr. Bell said that body sailed under false colours. It called itself a Trades Union, but its people had gone out of their way to wreck the move- ment inaugurated by the Amalgamated Society. Sir Ernest Paget had referred to deputations interviewing the directors and officials, and to matters being settled in that way. But how were those deputations received? The directors simply listened to them, and did not discuss matters, and the men went away without knowing what they were going to. get. They were claiming to be represented by others, so that when a thing was finally done they would know exactly what they were going to get. Sir Ernest stated that the society said the rail- way servants were afraid to go to the com- panies lest they should be marked men. Mr. Bell replied that he had never 6add this, and it was not the society's argument. But there were strong facts to bear out state- ments of that kind. Having said tha.t there was more discontent on the Midland to-day than there 'had be-ea for half a oe<nt«ry, Mr. Bell referred to the letter of Guiard Stevens, and contended that it helped the movement by endorsing what the society had said. Sir Ernest Paget's figures about increased wages would mislead the public without further exaggeration. Mr. Bell concluded by advising the men to go on with the policy they had undertaken. It was their right that he, or anyone else whom they chose, should represent them to their employers. A rail. way strike would be one of the worst things that could happen, .1rd the leaders would do anything they could to avoid such an extreme measure. Immediately, however, tha.t their right of representation had been conceded all fear and apprehension of a atrike would go aside. If a calamity occurred, the responsibility would rest upon the directors, for-the men were demanding a just right, and they were going to have it. RAILWAYMEN'S MEETING AT SWANSEA. t A meeting of railwaymen was held at the Working Men's Club, Swansea, on Sunday, Mr. G. Beynon presidinig. Mr. R. Bell, M.P., general secretary of the Amalgamated Society of Eailway Servants, was prevented from attending. Mr. W. 0. kitehell, (Midla/nd Eailway) said the local superintendent had stated his intention of albolisihiing the eight-hour day for shunters and placing them on ten hours. The men had protested against the proposal. Mr. W. E. Evans (Midland Eailway) said the eight hours was granted by the direc- torate in March, 1833, and if they accepted the ten-hours day now they would be work- ing against the national, all-grades move- ment. Mr. G. Payne said 30s. was the maximum for shunters, but at Swansea tihey were only getting 28s. For the extra two hours they would get the 30s. but the increase was only at the rate of 2d. per how., instead of 7d., as now. Mr. J. Williams, assistant general secre- tary of the Amalgamated Society of Hallway Servants, upheld the reason- ableness of an eight-hours day for the Midland shunters, and said, instead of having increased hours, the men should be going in for reduced hours. (Hear, hear.) Speaking on the all-grades movement, Mr. Williams asked them not to allow the tone of the railway meetings of the past fortnight to act as a barrier in their just demands. At five half-yearly meetings the directors had attempted to justify their refusal to the men because, they said, a sister organisation had appealed not to recognise it. A sister organisation, forsooth! It was nothing short of a bastard. (Applause.) After questions had been asked, a resolu- tion was carried protesting against the sug- gested alterations by local officials on the Midland Railway at Swansea, and asking the directors to receive a deputation on the matter. A+ ALIrGEADES MOVEMENT. ??  .11 me Car- diff Branch of the Am?Jgamated Society of Railway Servants, representing 1,500 mem- bers, on Sunday a resolution was cajried that the time had arrived when definite action should be taken with reference to the recognition of the officials of the society, and a ballot of the members taken if necessary.
ISOUTH WALES COAL TRADE.I
I SOUTH WALES COAL TRADE. I THREE HUNDRED MEN TO GO OUT I ON STRIKE. At the monthly meeting of the No. 1 (Rhondda) District of the South Wales Miners' .federation, held at the Washington Tem- perance Hotel, Porth, on Saturday permis- sion was given to the workmen at Perulull Colliery to tender notices to terminate con- tracts, with a view to having certain griev- ances remedied, which were not specifically mentioned. Mr. D. Wafle Morgan pointed out that only four or five or the men were dissatisfied, but, notwithstanding this, the whole of the colliers were prepared to lay down tools to support one another. Throe hundred men are affected. Referring' to the present rates of wages, Mr. D. Watts Morgun urged the importance of lodge committees obtaining a minimum percentage merged into the standiard wage. This would disabuse the public impression in some quarters not conversant with the coal trade that colliers were getting enormous wages. A prevalent idea was that, because the percentage was 5Z! per cent-, men were getting twice as much as hitherto. They always contended that the standard was much too low, and the minimum percen- tage should be added to the standard, so that the wages should start from that point. At present when a man earned 20s. on the standard under the agreement in force he was entitled to 26s. What they wanted was that the latter figure should be the standard of the per- centages, and the subsequent percentages correspondingly reduoed. This would be better for the men, as the fluctuations in the wages would be minimised. There was again a tendency to increase rents and the neces- saries of life, but these increases were not taken off when the higher percentages dis- appeared, the workmen being thus "pinched" both ways. He understood circulars had been sent out by employers in which it was intiniat-ed that an important point in the Aoi would be fought regardin-g the weekly compensation to be paid to boys under 21 years of age earning less than 20s. a week who met with a mishap and who would bo entitled to IDs. a week. They had oases in hand which, if not settled, would be entered for action in the county-court. Another matter for present consideration was that at some collieries men were allowed to work without being regis- tered under the Mines Regulation Act. Unless this clause in the Act was insisted upon it would be difficult in case of accident to prove a man had been working in a par- ticular colliery. NON-UNIONISTS IN THE DOWLAIS I COLLIERIES. Since the 1st of Atngmeit, when notices to terminate oomit.raots were given, in by the men working at the Dowlais Oollieries because of a number of non-Unioniets and defaulters working in the pits, things have progressed towards a. peaceful termination of the difficulty. The number of non- t'niouists and "old offenders" has been reduced to seventeen. There are still aborut 120 to 130 colliers who are defaultets for small sums. MAESTEG COLLIERY DISPUTE. I With regard to the dispute as to the pay- ment of certain men at Coegnant Colliery, Maesteg, Mr. J. P. Gibbon (North's agent) referred the matter to the manager, who saw Mr. Hartshorn, the miners' agent, during Saturday, but they failed to arrive at a settlement, and the partioolars will be referred to Mr. Gibbon.

I King of Detectives.
I King of Detectives. HEAD OF THE FAMOUS PINKERTON AGENCY DIES SUDDENLY I A terror to criminals the world over has been removed by the sudden death of Mr. Robert Allan Pinieonton, the great investi- gator of crime and head of the famous Ameri- can detective agency which bears his name. Mr. Pinkerton, who was 61 years of age, and had for more than 40 years been engaged in tracking down thieves and murderers, died on boaxd the North Gorman Lloyd steamer Bremen, which arrived at Plymouth on Satur- day. The Pinkerton agency to-day are prepared to provide at short notice from one to a thousand detectives to engage in any work. Their system is said to be more perfect than r any in the world, and even more far-reach- ing than the Russian secret service. One of their triumphs was the recovery of Gainsborough's Famous Painting I of the Duchess of Devonshire, stolen from Messrs. Agnew's galleries in Bond-street in 1876. For twenty-five years Pinkerton's worked on this case, piecing together evidence, and gradually drawing the net around the clever thieves who had stolen the treasure, until in 190i the then representative of Agnew's firm travelled to Chicago to receive the painting from Mr. Pinkerton's hands. In 1894 the great strike at the Carnegie steel works, near Pittsburg, saw a mixed army of employes holding up the works, erecting barbed-wire entanglements, and setting up Maxim guns. Pinkerton sent out an army of detectives, discipline won the day. and the strike came to an early end. In more recent days Pinkerton's figured largely in the great murder trial against American labour leaders in Idaho. It was one of the leading members of the agency who received from Harry Orchard, a member of the Miners' Union of Colorado, the Dramatic Confession which was one of the sensations of the case. Their representative visited Orchard in his cell, but for a long time he refused to be drawn." Then, when his health was broken and he had grown nervous through sleeplessness, the detective suddenly broke in upon him with the words: "I wonder what your old mother will think when she reads of the fix you are in." This is said to have so touched Orchard that he afterwards made to the detective a confession, which took three days to write down, and which formed the principal evi- dence against the alleged murderers. It is only fair to say that the statement was dis- credited by the jury. Pinkerton's have been engaged to guard the lives of Presidents of the United States, and even Scotland Yard have great esteem for the agency, for when Kobert Allan Pin- kerton and his brothers were in London three years ago the chief of England's home of crime detection gave Robert Pinkerton a silver cigar-case.
MONKEY ON RACECOURSE !
MONKEY ON RACECOURSE Swims the Thames and Makes for the Grand Stand Racegoers assembled on the Olewer Race- course at Windsor on Saturday were sur- prised to see a strange visitor in the shape of a monkey swim across1 the river, and make its way to the grandstand. The animal, which had escaped from cap- tivity at Monkey Island, an up-river resort, was chased by a number of constables, re- captured, and subsequently returned to the owners. The monkey escaped on Thursday night, and was not long in creating great havoc in the gardens of several of the riverside mansions. Stubbornly it resisted all efforts at re-capture, and swimming across the Thames continued its depredations in gardens on the other side of the river. On Saturday the pursuers were rewarded with success. Monkey Island derived its name from the fact that one particular room in the hotel then there, was painted with pictures of monkeys.
MYSTERY OF A NUNI

Inspector Ford said that when she was found sleeping out at nights in the Italian quarter he handed her over to the priests of the Italian colony. She refused to remain, and he took her to the workhouse, but she would not stay there. It was thought that, without knowing a single word of English, she had oome to London to seek a certain lady whose name alone she knew. It being stated that a French doctor had declared her to be a victim of mental aberra- tion, the magistrate remanded her to the mental ward.

IOBITUARY.I
I OBITUARY. I MU. GEORGE REYNOLDS, NEWPORT. A large number of friends, not only in Newport, but throughout South Wales, will regret to hear of the death, which took place at Weston-super-Mare on Sunday, of MT George Beynolds, head of one of the largest drapery and furnishing establish men ta at Newport. Mr. Reynolds' death, in the zenith of his manhood, will be very deeply deplored by the ever-increasing circle of the Boys' Brigade and its offshoots. During bÎ6 scholastic days in Glasgow Mr. Reynolds waa thrown considerably into con- tact with Professor Dnnnmond, under whose magnetic influence he developed a very warm attachment for a.ll social and religious work. When he returned to South Wales in early manhood he became the founder in the dis- trict of the Boys' Brigade, which has grown throughout South WaJes chiefly by his early instrumentality to very large proportions. About eighteen months ago Mr. Reynolds had a eerious illness, which greatly weakened his heart. He had just recovered sufficiently to return to business when, about a fortnight ago, he went over to Weston for a change, and saw a good deal of the operations of the Boys' Brigade there encamped. On Thursday last, however, he became very ill again, and his brother-in-law (Dr. Hamilton, of Newport) went over +~ see him. It was realised that Mr. Reynolds was in a very serious condition, and he was removed to a nunsing home. He was anxious to return to Newport with his wife and three children, but it was deemed inadvisable to ttjw that step, and he died on Sunday morning.

W Higgs will be found riding this week at Wolver- hampton, Folkestone, and llun-t Tark. In reference to the report that, owing to a failnra on the part of the gale, the rider of Pendennis. one f i:: :;¿t¿: f:thheR:l J;1dît was dragged by the tape from the saddle, we are advised ttot the mishap was occasioned by rendeoinis jumping into the webbing ana through no fault of the machine. An exciting sc,ne was occasioned on Windsor race- course shortly before racing was resumed by the appearance of a large monkey, who, after crossing tde nvex, mads her way towards the stands. A number of constables took up the chafe and eventually secured the intruder, who, having been regaled with fruit from the stall in the rc*<erved enclosure, was con- veyed to the town. The animal exhibited no signs ot either fear or ferocity.
