Steelworks Closed .& .f'. MEN OBJECT TO WAGE REDUCTION i A dispute has arisen at Messrs. Whitehead and Co.'s Steelworks, Tredegar, by which a considerable number 01 workmen are affected. About eighteen months ago Mr. Whitehead asked the mem to agree to a revision of the wage-rate in the mills on tha ground that he was under a competitive disadvantage as oompa.red with the employers in the Midlands, owing: to the rates at Tredega-r being much higher. The men, many of whom had worked in Staffordshire mills, disagreed with this statement, and it WQ43 agreed that Mr. Tom Griffiths, organiser of the Steel Smelters' Union, a.nd Mr. David Martin, one of the employes, should investi- gate into the rates amd conditions existing in the Midlands, and the result was that they ■were found aoperior to tboee at Tredegar. Mr. Whitehead was dissatisfied, a.nd his suggestion that the question in dispute should be referred to an arbitrator apipointed by the Board of Trade wna accepted rather than cause a stoppage. His Honour Judge Austin, Bristol, 9" at Tredegar to October last as the Board of Trade arbitrator, and after heading evidence from both sides an award was made in favour of the men, Although the award has QlDJy been in opera- tion for about twelve months, Mr. Whitehead now seeks to revise the rates, or to induce the men to accent a. reduction. They decline, as they allege that they have been working very irregularly during the last twelve months owing to the severe depression in trade, and they contend that it is not an opportune time for a reduction, as they had not received any advantage from the awsrd owing to bad times. The exeoutive committee of the S-teel g-tnetten, Union support the man in their resistance to the proposed reduction, as it appeared tanta- mount to a floating of the award of Judge Austin. The works ite Closed down, and the men ^xrmplariin of the action of Mr. Whitehead in advertising for men to oolrry on the mills. A meeting of the men was held art Tredegar on Monday, Mr. Tom Griffiths, South Wales organiser, being' present. The men were solid in their resistance to the proposed redtlt-tion, and strongly resented the aittempt to intro- duce "blacklegs." Mr. Griffiths has written to Mr. Whitehead stating that, the men were prepared to discuss any new prop-.I?s which U.pight have to submit. THE COMPANY'S POSITION. I The other side of the question was explained in an interview by Mr. Whitehead. He pointed out that the company ha.d abided loyally by the decision of the arbitrator in favour of the men, and gave the award a fair twelve months' trial. The result had made it iteoessary for the company to either close their east mills or obtain a revision of the rate from the workmeb. At d meeitr irig of the workmen's representatives they declined to meet the company in any respect, in spite of the fact that no advan tage had been taken during good tirade ftrf a revision of rates provided for in the original agreement. The Company, in full concurrence with Mx. Tom Griffiths, of the Steel Smelters' Union, agreed to give 28 days' notice, but within fourteen days of the expiration of this notice the company issued notice to the workmen informing them that they were prepared to continue running the-mills on the day rates and to start any man who agreed to work under those conditions, pe.nd' a sett?e- ment of the new tonn??e i.. 7. no appli- mtions were received, the m any had w alternative but to take Steps to fill the places of those men who declined. The com- pa.ny's idea in dealing with it thus was to Avoid any stoppage, which, would be detri- mental to the workmen and the company. Mr. Whitehead added that the company had done everything in their power to effect a final settlement, but the men up to the present had absolutely doolinéd t6 open negotiations. The condition Of the sfctfel trade was such that if the works were to be kept going Under the prresewt srysteru of foreign competition the men must be pre- pared to. make some concessions. We are informed that the Coiflpany have decided, owing .to the depression m trade, to resume operations on one shift for the time being. This dispute. we understand, in no way affects the work at the lww mills recently started by the oompariy.

It is an Absolute Lie", I MR. CAPLE CAUSES CONFUSION A Wrangle over Chairmanship I The Cardiiff Corporation met today to appoint chairmen of committees. The Lord Mayor (Alderman Lewis Morgan) presided. There was some opposition to the appoint- ment of M.r. Caple, the vice-chairman,, who is an architect, to the ohairmamehip of the public works committee. Alderman Robert Hughes appealed to Mr. Caple not to allow ihiirieelf to be nominated for the position. There wa.s a strong feeling among the architects that Mr. Caple ought not to oc-oupy that position. No end of representations had been made to him. However much they might regard the integrity of Mr. Caple there was a good deal of human, na-til-re in all of them, and the position in,the town would become intolerable it Mr. Oaple became chairman of the public works committee. The representations that had been made were of an important and substantial character. Mr. Caple declined to withdraw. To adopt such a course would be a serious reflection, .notwithstanding what had been said upon his honesty and oneness of purpose. Finally, he asked as a matter of privilege Alderman Kenwdck whether at x a football match on Saturday, in a very polite manner, he did not ask Dr. Robinson to ,-ote against him (Mr. Caple), as cha-irman of t'he public works committee. Dr. Robinson (warmly): I am not on the committee. I say it is a lie. The Lord Mayor: It is out of order. It is Dot a question of privilege. Alderman Renwick: But you will give me the privilege of denying smell an assertion. I never did anything of the sort. Dr. Robinson: It is an absolute lie. Alderman Ren wick: It is a.n absolute lie. Alderman Carey proposed, and Mr. Morgan Thomas S'eeoiided, the appointment of Mr. A. Sessions, but this wias withdrawn upon it being pointed out that vb-eo same objection from a trade point of view might be levelled against Mr. Sessions. Mr. Jabez Jones thought that Mr. Caple ought to have the opportunity of hi okno,me going to the vote, and proposed him, and Mr. W. Jenkins seconded. Alderman Carey proposed, and Mr. Sections seconded, the appointment of Mr. JabeZ A. Jones, Mr. Sessions remarking that he willingly withdrew, in view of the fea.r that objection might be made against him by the trade. Mr. —organ Tthomas referred to Mr. Sessions' gracious aot, and appealed to Mr. Ca.ple to withdraw. Personally, he would not be able to Bit on the public Tark com7 mittee if Mr. Caple was appointed. The name of Mr. Jabez Jones was then Put to the meeitin ^a-nd everyone voting for him, he was declared eleoted. Mr. Ca-ple was then unanimously elected to the vice-clhairmansihip, but he refused to accept, and Mr. William -10-nkins was appointed to the vice-chair unanimously. There was no alteration made in the chair- manships of the watch, Parliamentary, elec- tric lighting, and tramways and most of the other committees. MUSEUM COMMITTEE. A discussion arose with regard to the chairmanship of the museum committee, Alderman R.enwiok intimatirng that he could not accept the position., in view of the fact that he would not be a member of the court and council of the National Museum. There were ruafi y matters connected with the pend- ing transfer of their municipal museum to the national body which made it very impor- tanlÍ, that the chairman should also be a member of the national body. The Lord Mayor suggested that the appointment be postponed, in order that it ,should be ascertained whether it would be possible to secure a seat for Alderman Ren. wick on the national body. This suggestion was adopted. The first glimmer of fun arose over the chairmanship of the housing of the work;.ig classes committee, which had not met during the pa<4t year, when Mr. Lovat-Frasetr mov",d that Alderman John Jenkins, M.P., be appointed chairman. "The amount of work Air. Jenkins had put in for the corporation." said Mr. Lovat-Fra.ser, "and hie regular attendance on the committees entitled han to some recognition at the hands of the council. (Laughter.) Mi1. Chappell: There are others.' Sir William Crossman was appointed chair- man of the committee, and Mr. Walter Thomas deiputy-oh,irman. On the motdon of Alderman Carey, Mr. J. W. Courtis was apipointed chairman, of the developments committee, the filling of the deputy-chairmanship being postponed. Mr. Lovat Fraiser: What about Mr. John Jenkins? (Laughter.)

West Wales Assizes HEAVY CALENDAR FOR TRIAL The West. Wales Assizes were opened at Gar- zoarthen to-day before Mr. Justice Bucknill, who last viftitfed the ancient borough when the Boer wer was at its height, and joined in the logal celebrations over the relief of Lady- sm-ith. The oaJendiM- from the three counties was the heaviest on record, and included charges of murder and attempted murder from. LlaneUy, a manslaughter charge from Pembrokeshire, and a bigamy r-aFe from Hia/verfo>rdwest, making twenty-two prisoners in all- His Lordship, tn his charge to the grand jury. of which Mr. Mervyn Peel, Danyrallt, was foreman, said that he read in this morn- ing's papers that it was to be a record assize. Except that with resrard to a few oa., however, most of the work was of a trifling nature. His lordship rewieed the Aberystwyth a&eg^d perjury ca^e in which a brother and sister are charged, and said that there were two other very bad cases. Unfortunately, one wee an alleged murder, and the other was an alleged These cases, of course, were always moat distressing, but. th." jury would have to find a bill in both. The manslaughter case waz one in which Elisabeth Chambers, an apparently respect- able servant, wag confined of a child in per bedroom, all by herself, on the 26th of May. one of the other sei-vamts came b&øk. she informed her of what had happened, and that she had placed the child in the chest Off drawers. The medical evidence showed tha-t the child had clearly a separate exifit- efice, atod that the skulf had been fractured in one or two places. Llanelly Murder Charge Eeferriug to the Llaouelly murder case, in which William John Lewis, a plasterer, is charged with the murder of his little girl, aged three years and seven months, on the 26th of August lasts his lordship, after shortly reviewing the evidence at the police- court, said thaA it wa;, a very extraordinary oase, becrkioe, looking at it as he had been, Eilble to look at it, it would appear to have besn the act of a man who did not know what he was doing. At any rate, that was not a, matter for the .gtand jury to decide. All they fiad to do was to return a true bill. On the application of Mr. LlQIYd Morgan, K.C., M.P., who has beefh retained for the defence, his lordship directed that Lewie shoOkl be eeen privately by a doctor.

I Sequel to a Divorce I THE KING'S PROCTOR INTERVENES The Divorce Court on Monday resumed the hearing of the case in which Mrs. Ma-rtha May Thompson obtained a* decree for the dissolution of her marfia-gre with Mr. Enoch Griffith Thompson, a ship's steward, with whom she had lived a.t Kirkdale, Aintree. aud Walton. The King's Prootor now inter- vened, asking the court to rescind the decree, alleging that material facts had been with- held, and that the respondent had been induced by age-nts of the petitioner to commit misconduct with Susie Burns at Glasgow in order that the petitioner might get a divorce. Mr. Gill, for the King's Proctor, stated when the case oineried that Mr. William Henry Abdullah Quilliam, solicitor, Liverpool, had a.cted for the petitioner in the divorce suit, that a Geoge Evans had been employed by him to make inquiries, a.nd that Evans had met Thompson in Glasgow. Counsel now proceeded to alloee that the misconduct with Burns was brought about by Evans, no doubt acting upon instructions of the soldci- tor, with whom at that time he appeared to have been in communication. Evans after- wards told Mrs. Bnrw, that Thompson had said that he (Evans) had misconducted him- self with her, and that it had caused very serious trouble. He asked whetber she would offer to ma-ke a statement that it was not he, but Thompson. Accordingly Mrs. Burns and her husband went to see a woman sup- posed to be Evans's wife a-nd a m,an who was supposed to be Evans's father-in-law, who was, in fact, the solicitor Quilliam. After diseussion Mrs. Burns said it wae not Evans, but Thompson, Who had miscon- ducted himself. Then the fa-ree was gone through of Evans being reconciled to his wife,. Quilliam a-ct.ing the part- of the father. Continuing, cottlise4 said inquiries by the King a Proctor showed that QuiUia.m had left the country, and about, the beginning of the present term had ceased to. practice in Liverpool. Enoch Griffith Thompson, the respondent in the divorce ,ait, in the divorce suit, -wais then called. He deposed to being spoken to by Evans at Glasgow, and said they went to different public-houses, Evans paying for all -drinks. Witness subsequently committed mis- conduct with Susie Burns. He was under the influence of drink when he went to the house. The oaee was adjourned. The decree nisi was to-day rescinded. SUICIDE OF A CO-RESPONDENT. In the Divorce Court on Monday Vivian Abbott Johnson, of Meersbrook, Sheffield, was granted a decree nisi, with the custody ot the children of the marriage, on the ground of his wife's misconduct with Michael Lancelot Neale Sltutte, who, it was stated, committed suicide last July, and whose name had been, consequently, struck cut of the suit. The petition was undefended. It was stated that the parties were m.arried in 1886, and lived at Sheffield in 1904. Differ- ences zlrose between them, and the wife expressed a desire to earn her own living by carrying on a lodging-house at Douglas. Isle of Man. The husband consented, allowing the wife JE1 a week. shutte, however, lived with Mrs. Johnson as her husband, and when served with the divorce papers he committed suicide under tragic circum- stances.

I 4,500 Colliers Idle « 10,000 MORE MAY COME OUT Tho stoppages at the Glamorgan Colliery, Llwynyph. during the past few weeks reached an acute stage on Monday, when the men refused to work and the whole pit was rendered idle, nearly 4,000 men being affected. The dispute is the result of working on wha.t is known as consideration," that is. compensation to miners working in abnor- ma,l places where they a.re unable to ?ain a Jiving wage obtaina-tiie in ordinary circum- stances. The sudden action adopted came as a surprise to the management, a.nd after the men had refused to descend the mine I a mass meeting was held on the top of the Pit, presided over by Mr. John Hoppla. At this the speakers referred to the position in which they were placed, and it was oon- tended that for some weeks past colliers had not received adequate payment for their services, the argument of the management on the other side being that the collieries were not producing sufficient coal to justify t.he wages list already in operation, by the consideration rate, viz., 4s. 3d. per day plus 60 per cent. on the standard. Several men etated that after paying a boy they only had 3s. to take home, owing to being put into places where it was impossible to ea-rn sufficient wages in return for their labour. It was decided not to return to work until the grievances under which they held they laboured w'\O.re adjusted, and a new price- list settled. The dispute affects all the seams where the difficulty in re-a-djustment has arisen. The apea-kers in their addresses spoke in a conciliatory spirit, wit-h a view to make an arrangement possible. At a subf-equcnt gathering a resolution was unanimously paeeed not to resume work until a eettiement was a-rrived at satisfactory to both sides. This decision for the present brings matters practically to a deadlock. The executive council of the o. 1 (B-hondda) District of the South Wales Miners' Federa- tion has been approached to take the matter up to relieve the situation. It is felt, how- ever, that the task is a, difficult one. A meeting is announced for to-piorrow night at l Oaersalem Chapel, Tonypandy, when nibe question will be brought before the com- bined colliery workmen under the Cambrian Trust. BREACH OF CONTRACT DENIED. I On the other hand, from inquiries made we [understand that the company maintain that no breach of contract has taken place on their side There has been no violation of agreements entered into previous to the combine, and t-hat the same principle adopted by their predecessors has been faith- fully carried out. Again, they assert that no attempt hae been made to approach the new management to adjust any differences, and the stoppage came, a,- stated, in the nature of a fmrprw. Notices were posted a,t the pit-head that full workvmight be resumed last ^Monday) night, but pickets had been posted to stop the miners going underground. MR. LLEWELYN INTERVIEWED. I Interviewed by our representative, Mr. Leonard L Evelyn. the general manager of the Cambrian Trust Collieries, denied that there had been any breach Whatsoever of any contract since the concern had changed hands, and added, Speaking •generally, without having the book before nw-, not a angle man has worked during the past fortnight, after having paid his boy, at a less rate than from 6s. to 7. per dey, whereas in the majority of MLs?s the men ?hwa.ve earned up to 10.?. p?r day, while some of the men Mye earned up to 17s. 6d. per day M colliers." "AUTOCRATIC" TREATMENT. Continuing, Mr. Llewelyn said he con- sidered the company had been treated in a most autocratic and hit.herto unheard-of maimer, and the only explanation that he (Mr. Llewelyn) could offer was that,the col- liers were seeking, by urging an iniaginary grievance, to prejudice the minds of the gentlemen 3T«poiTited by the conciliation board to settle the price-lists of the seams a.t. the collieries. It may be stated in explanation of Mr. Llewelyn's interview given above that, hitherto there have been no price-lists fixed at the Glamorgan Collieries, and that recently it has bœn docid-ed that this shoa'd be done, and, acting upon the instructions of 't'he conciliation board, Mr. T. Orifflt-hs, as representing the owners; Mr. Llewelyn, ae 'repre.entin.g the company, and Jfr, Morrell and Mr. D. Wa.tt.s Morgan, as representing the men, have been making an inspection of the seams with a view of Itrriving at a setfle- merit.

INFURIATED OX AT PORTHGAWLI An infuriated ox caused much excitement at Portboawl this morrrtnig. The a-nimal was being eomveyed by the Great Western Railway to the seaside town to be slaughtered. It did not like its cowfineanent in the van, and when the traiin reached the station its heard was err?eyed with bSood, and it was in a, dafc^eroras state of frenzy. With great difficulty the beast was got out of the van. A heavy Wagon Was procured, to the tail of which a rope was attached and fat-s- tewed rcuad the neck of the animal, while one of its legs was tied to its neck. Six men stood on eaeh side of the bull, and in this way it was safely taken to the slaughter- house, after smashing two windows. The rrxa-re of the bull aroused all the inhabi- tants, and numbers lined the streets.

xitoOO Challenge PSYCHICAL SOCIETY'S OFFER Any spiritualist who is able to count the number of oranges that are rolled out of a basket on a table in the oia&e of the Metro- politan Psychical Society, ew Ycrk. will be given £ 1,000. The Society states "it has been the experience of those offering rewards that wnm alkg-sd mediums pro fessing to communicate v.-ith spirits are a*sked to demonstrate their powers, when opportunities for fra,tid or for telepathy have been eliminated, they are helpless, Q.nd cannot do a thing. But we are open to conviction. We have raised £ 1,000, now in the bands of David G-oldberger, 747, East i 168th-street, to be given to any person who will shut his eyes and by means of the help of a spirit or by any other means will count- a few oranges spilled on a table behind him. The person w-h-o spills the oranges will look the other way for the moment to eliminate the possibility of telepathy." Several hundred persons have applied for permission to t.ry to' earn the £ 1,000, and of all who have endeavoured to count the oranges none has succeeded.

The much discussed Newport Llanelly game was agtin brought on at a commit-tee meeting of the Newport Club on Monday night, when it was decided to suggest to the Llanelly C-lub that the match be annulled ajid blotted out of the reoords. C. M. Pritchard's Knee Again. It appears that the injury which C. M. Pntoh-ard sustained while playing for New- port against Gloucester on Saturday last. is serious enough to confine him to the house for the present. Unfortunately, it is an injury to the s<m? knee which has given him so much trouble for th? pa?t couple of ^easoue. Cardiff v. Neath It was expected that after what happened 111 Saturday's game with Swansea the Cardiff committee would make some changes in the team to meet Neath on Saturday on the G110II ground, but no such changes were made at usual weekly meeting on Monday even- lng. except that J. Poweil Wâ. re-instated in the place of Ernie Harding, who sustained a. very serious and painful double frac.it#re of the shoulder. The final selection will he me from the folici-ipg;-Back. II. B. Winfleld; tni-ee-quarter backs, E. Gwyn Nicholls. L. M. Dyke, R. A. Gibbs, J. L. Williams, and D. Furness; b»if-baeks, Percy Bush and W. L. Morgan; forwards, Fred Smith, D. Wwtacott. J. Brown. J. Pug-sley, J. Casey, W, Casey, J. PoweiJ, E. Gaecon, D. Pike, and G. Yewlett. It may be taken as a oertaint-y that Gwyn Jucholls, on account of the injury to one of the sinews of his thisL, will not be able to turn out. but whether Gibbs or Furness will take his pla-ce in the centre is a matter which will not be finally decided till la.t.er iu the week. Penarth v. Newport In thfis match at Newport on Saturday the Cakside team, as selected on Monday night, will be as followsBack, F. W. Burt; three- quarter backs, M. Baker, Alf. James, J. P. Jones, and Stanley Williams; half backs, T. II. Vile (captain) a.nd W. J. Martin; forwards, E. Thomas, P. Waller, E. Jenkinc G. Stnitp. J. E. C. Partridge, C. A. Evatt, A. J arm an, and A. Hockey. Rough Play in Football. A Cardiff correspondent who signs himself "A Disgusted Spectator" has addressed the following letter to "FerweTd," with the request. that it should be published:— After having seen several football matches lately, one is compelled to ask the Question as to whether Welsh football is not deteriorating and prize-fighting taking its place. Undoubtedly, we aj-e going back to scenes worthy of the old cup days, when men fought with their fists and feet. The matches played between Swansea and Oar, diff and Swansea and Newport a.re abso- lutely the roughest that I have ever wit- nessed. Is it any wonder that friends across the border who saw the ma.td1 between the Wallabies and Llanelly simply shrug their shoulder; when you mention Welsh football? Why cannot the game be played as it was the or six years ago, when it was a pleasure to witness a first-class match ? Prom my own observation I have no hesi- tation in blaming referees for allowing brutality to proceed in these games, and should like to know why it. -is impossible to obtain a first-eiass referee, who would worn the reavers on entering the field and after- wards order them off for dirty play. If Wales cannot furnish us with good referees why not go to the English Union? We have had several good men from them in the past, including that sterling referee, Mr. E. 13. Holmes, of the Midla-nd Counties." LLANDOVERY COLLEGE V. SHEE BONNE SCHOOL.

LOSS OF TH g PHYLLIS GRAY COASTGUARD AND LIGHTS: THE I CAUSEr REMAINS A MYSTERY. I The Board of Trade inquiry into the loss of the Phyllis Gray was concluded at Barn- l stap1e on Monday*. Additional evidence ha.ving been given as to the appearance of the.pars found near the wreck. Captain "Wilkinson (representing the Adnii. ralty) said tiha-t he would like to draw the court's attention to the statements by Mr. Soar-es, A,.P., that the vessel came ashore with her uresis up, and that the wreck was ¡ discovered by a boy. There WCKS no evidence to prove the first contention, and it had been paoved that Ooastgruaa-d Holmes and a farmer had seen the wreck and were tallying of it previous to the boy arriving. Mr Hedderwicfc (counsel for the Board of Trade) said that more importance had been attached to the Quest-ion ^relating to the coa.s"g'ua,rd. through the intervention of Mr Soares. He did not- complain of the inter- vention, but whilst it was very desirable for Q. member of Parliament to protect the interests of his constituency, it wa.s no less desirable that undeserved censure should not. be attached to the body of men who had for half a century discharged in a most admirable manner a duty not originally imposed upon them. The court found that there was no evidence of lights or distress signals being shown, that the look-out was good and continuous, and that it was impossible to say the exact, ¡ oaose of the loss.
