The Daily Mail" and the Edgar Murder Case.  1 A representative of the Daily Mail called on Mrs. Edgar, at New Brighton, Cheshire, on Friday, and reports the following interview it was an awful shock to me," said Mrs. Eùgar. My husband was killedfright at my feet. Such a big, fine man, too, over 6ft. 2in., and weighing nineteen stoue." And Mrs. Edgar's sad eyes brimmed over. On the night he was killed we had dinner together. After- wards he went out to amuse himself, which he did sometimes in a quiet way, for be was the most sober of men. Between twelve and one o'clock I heard his step coming down the passage. We lived in a place callc-ii 'Flurries- building,' a sort of tenement, so that, of course, there were other people's doors opening into the same passage As he came down the passage I heard a man call out in Dutch, 'En nidtti)a ('What's the talk?') and my husband replied Ikon nidaba' ('I don't know any talk'). The man said some- thing which I did not catch, but I heard my husband say, 'What do you mean by telling me to veetsaak.?' I was not surprised, for it was most insulting. 'Veetsaak' means I clear out,' but it is an expression so low that one would Jiardlj even use it to dogs, The next thing I heard was a cry of I Police,' and my huabaud came into the room and locked the door. He came over to the bed and said, 'Hist! Bessie, they are after me t' The next thing I knew was that a policeman was trying to get in at the window, and that someone was battering at the door. I bad no time to speak to my husband before the door fell in with a crash. A police- man a tall, dark man, stepped inside. My husband did not speak to him, and the police- man did not speak, but the latter had a revolver in his hand, and he just raised it deliberately and shot my husband. He fell in a heap at my feet. I was horribly frightened, and thought he was hurt, and stooped down and asked him if he would have some water. Blood was pouriug out from the region of his heart, and I saw he was dead. Then everything was very confused, but I remember hearing a voice say I Jan (Jones) has shot him,' and that's all I can say." It was said afterwards that your husband was not sober, and that he knocked the other man down," 41 That's quite a mistake. My husband was perfectly sober. The other man was proved to be drunk, and, in fact, he has since drunk him- self to death. He was buried in nearly the next grave to my husband's. The gang the man belonged to were a very low lot, and my husband never spoke to them if he could help it. But the shameful part was afterwards at the trial. I can't remember the name of the judge, but he was quite a young man, only 25. He was smiling and nodding to the people in court as if nothing were the matter, instead of of a trial for murder. Jones, too, was laughing on the doorstep with the other policemen before he came in. Then whenever our lawyer tried to make a point he was told to be silent and ordered to sit down. Everybody was furious, and nobody felt safe, and we were afraid to do much for fear the police would shoot us from cpite and they might have done that for they are the worst scoundrels in the Transvaal. "I was left without a penny, so the South African League got up a Supscription list for me. I know that subscriptions came in from all over the place—fiom Durban, from Salisbury, and from nearly every mine. Those who chiefly got it up were Mr. Dodds and Mr. Webb. I wanted to stay out in Africa, as my health was better there, but all my friends persuaded me to come home, so I came. "The League paid my passage, and said that when I got to England the balance of the sub- scriptions, £120, should be paid me in monthly instalments till I got something to do, as you see I have my little girl to provide for. I was sent to Mr. Hoskirs, in Mincing-lane, London, who gave me £5 to go on with, but I have not had a penny of the other money yet. I only saw by chance the other day in some paper that the balance had been settled on my child. Of course, I am very much upset about the'matter. I should never have come to England if I had thought that I should be stranded here without a penny. At present I am living on my parents, who are old and quite unable to support me. I am sure there must be some mistake some- where." What does the Colonial Office say ?" II Well, I had introductions to one or two members of Parliament, and they were very kind. I wanted to see Mr. Chamberlain, but could not. Sir Edward Grey wrote to say that Mr. Chamberlain had the matter in hand. I do hope something will be done soon. "I know nothing of politics, but I do know the Uitlanders live in terror of the police, and that they want justice, but can't get it." Mr. Chamberlain has since announced, in the House of Commons, that a claim for compensa- tion has been made for Mrs Edgar and her child. i:>

Prolongation of Commercial n Arrangements between Germany and Great Brilain, The German Reichstag on Wednesday passed by a very large majority the third reading of the Bill for the prolongation of the provisional commercial arrangement with Great Britain. CADBURY'S COCOA is absolutely pure, and is there- fore the best Cocoa. It is a refreshing, stimulating drink, and a nutritious food, containing no foreign substances, such as kola, malt, bops, &c. The fact cannot be too strongly impressed that Cocoa must be unadulterated to ensure its fullest beneficial effects. Always insist on having CADBURY'S—Sold only in Packets and Tins—as other Cocoas are often substituted for the sake of extra profit. 3

Prices ob. tained were Heifer beef 6d, per lb., cow beef 5d. 2 per lb., wether mutton Sd. per lb., ewe mutton 6d. 2 to 7d. per lb., lamb 8d. to 9d. per lb., cows and 2 calves J612 to JE15, yearling cattle X8 to XIO, two- year-olds £12 to £ 15, sows and pigs JE7 to L7 10s., and stores from 25s. to 30s. NEWPORT CATTLE, Wednesday. -U su Lil supply, and last week's quotatious were well maintained. B.st beef, \)1.d per lb secondary quality, Sid to 6d best wethers, 7 £ d to 8d ewes, 6d to 6d veal, 7d to 8d lamb, 8d to 8id; porker pigs, 9s 3d to 9s 5d per score. NEWPORT CORN, Wednesday.—Small attendance, farmers being mostly engaged in haymaking operations. Consequently the market was quiet. Wheat, barley, and maize was 3d to 6d per quarter dearer on the week- Oats and beans were unchanged. Fines (flour) sold at 22s per sack. NEWPORT CHKESE, Wednesday.—About 14 tons were pitched, and everything was cleared at satisfactory prices. Good attendance of buyers. Caerphillys, 36s to 42rper cwt.; fancy dairies, 436 to 45s doubles, 44s to 46s truckles, 50s. CHEPSTOW WOOL FAIR.—This annual fixed fair was held at Chepstow, on Thursday, and was well attended by buyers and sellers. Messrs. Davis, Newland, and Hunt had received between 6,000 and 7,000 fleeces, which they had stocked in large tents in the butter market, and which proved a great convenience to all concerned. The wool was all in good condition there was a rapid sale, but the prices were low, ranging from 5d to 7d per lb. One lot only reached 7id. This was an average of Id per lb. below last year's prices. MONMOUTH WOOL FAIR.—Messrs. Nelmes and Poole's fifth annual wool fair was held at the Cattle Market, on Wednesday afternoon, and proved a great success, considerably more wool being sold than in previous years. About 12,000 fleeces were sold, and of these nearly 8,000 were sent in by Mr. R. N. Jackson, of Blackbrooke, Pontrilas. Buyers from all the great wool centres attended, including representatives from Bradford, Leeds, Hereford, Heckmoudwite, Cheltenham, Abergavenny, Chepstow, etc. The prices obtained were a fair ruling average. Welsh wool fetched from 4ld to 5d per lb, Shropshire, from 6d to 7id, and a small lot of lambs wool 4|d.

Collapse of the Cockett Tunnel. On Monday night, the Cockett Tunnel, on the G.W.R. main line near Swansea collapsed. Soon after 7 p.m. about fifty tons of masonry in the tunnel fell, blocking both up and down lines. The day was a particularly busy one with passenger traffic, owing to the Barnum and Bailey Show at Swansea, and during the day 7,000 or 8,000 excursionists had been conveyed to that town. Two return excursions had just passed down when the disaster occurred, rendering the line impassable for further traffic. No loss of life nor injury occurred happily, and arrangements were quickly made to convey the remaining passengers from Swansea to Llanelly and down-line towns by the London and North Western Railway, and it is probable that the temporary service over the London and North Western line will have to be continued for a few months until the tunnel is again made perfectly safe. The Great Western Railway Company give notice that, in consequence of the temporary obstruction in Cockett Tunnel, the Swansea and Llanelly train service will be conducted by the London and North Western Railway. Several trains will be discontinued for the present, and the times of those now running will be materially altered to suit the new circumstances and to meet the various connections.

I Chandos-Pole Divorce Case. On Wednesday, in the Divorce Division, before Mr. Justice Barnes and a special jury, the case of Chandos-Pole v. Chandos-Pole (Craven inter- vening) was set down for further hearing. It was the petition of Mrs. Kathleen Annie Chandos- Pole, of Kiddington Hall, Woodstock, for the dissolution of the marriage on the ground of the alleged cruelty and adultery of her husband, Mr. Samuel Chandos-Pole, The misconduct alleged was with Mrs. Craven, wife of the Hon. Rupert Craven, whose maiden name was Miss lues Broonji She intervened in the case and denied the charge. The respondent also filed an answer denying the charges. Counsel engaged in the suit are Mr. Carson, Q.C., Mr. Barnard, and Mr. Bayford for the petitioner; Mr, Willock for the respondent; and Mr. Bargrave Deane, Q.C., and Mr. Alfred Lyttelton for the intervener. On the case being called, Mr. Lyttelton said he regretted to inform the Court that his learned leader (Mr. Bargrave Deane) was confined to his bed unwell, and would be so confined throughout the day. He had just received a note from Mrs. Deane to that effect. The case was adjourned until Thursday, and again adjourned.

I National flank of Wales. The Master of the Rolls, the President of the Probate Division, and Lord Justice Romer, had before them on Wednesday, the appeal of Mr. John Cory, of Cardiff, from a judgment of Mr. Justice Wright, of the 7th of December last, upon a misfeasance summons, taken out by liquidator of the bank, for the purpose of having it deter- mined to what extent, if any, Mr. Cory ought to be held responsible for the failure of the bank., Sir E. Clarke, at the commencement of his open- ing statement, was asked by the Master of the Rolls whether the case could be brought to an end by Saturday, as after that the Court would for a time be differently constituted. The learned council replied that he was unable to give a pledge to that effect, but he would do ,r5 his best to shorten the case. Sir Edward Clarke said it was an appeal by Mr. John Cory, from a judgment of Mr. Justice Wright, upon a misfeasance summons, which the learned judge had found against Mr. Cory, upon one point. The misfeasance charged was of three kinds first, the payment of dividend out of capital; secondly, the making or sanctioning of improper advauces to the directors out of the fuuds j of the company, whereby a loss had accrued and thirdly, the sanctioning of improper advances to customers, and allowing overdrawn accounts and debts to continue where it was reported that the debtor was insolvent, or otherwise unable to repay, j The court adjourned until Thursday.

The Gleaner. I LET HIMSELF OUT.-A good story is told of Luigi Lablache, the singer, who was a giant in size. He was very generous and a lover of jokes. At one time he was staying in Paris at the same hotel ( with Tom Thumb. An English tourist, who had been making strenuous efforts to meet the latter, one day burst into the great basso's apartment. Seeing the giant before him, he hesitated and apolo- gized. I was looking," he said, for Tom Thumb." "I am he," answered Lablache in hi. deepest tones. The Englishman was taken aback. He must have been a trusting soul. "But," said he, "you were very tiny when I saw you yesterday." "Yes," said Lablache; "that is how I have to appear, but when I get home to my own rooms I let myself out and enjoy myself," Then he proceeded to entertain his guest. A PROFESSIONAL CYCLIST DIVORCED.—In the Divorce Division on Monday (before Mr. Justice Bucknill), Mrs. Fanny Michael, of Aberdare, sued for a divorce from her husband, Mr. James Michael, a professional cyclist, on the ground of desertion and adultery. The suit was undefended. Mr. Pritchard, who appeared for the petitioner, stated that the parties were married on the 13th of March, 1896, at the Registry Office, Cardiff. It was a secret marriage, and, no doubt the respondent married petitioner for her money, for her father, who had died intestate, left CIO,OOO, of which she would be entitled to one-third. At the time the parties thought that the petitioner would come into possession of her monyy when she was eighteen years of age. They lived a few days in London together, and then the wife went to Wales, while her husband went to Paris to fulfil an engagement as a professional bicyclist. He came back in Ang., 1886, and the wife saw him in London. She then told him she could not have her money until she was 21 years of asfe. He went away to America and returned in 1897, and then, and at a later date in 1898, he declined to live with his wife. Adultery would be proved with a woman which the respon- dent met in Cardiff, and another woman in London. —The Judge granted petitioner a decree nisi for the dissolution of the marriage. WILLIAM HANCOCK AND CO. (LIMITED).—At a meeting of the directors of William Hancock and Co. (Limited), held on Tuesday morning, it was unanimously resolved, subject to audit, to recommend that a dividend for the half-year ending 31st of May, 1899, be declared on the preferred ordinary shares at the rate of six per cent. per annum, and on the deferred ordinary shares at the rate of eight per cent. per annum, and to carry forward a balance of £ 1,280 19s. 2d. This dividend makes, with the interim distribution, fijd per cent. for the year on the deferred ordinary shares, as against nine per cent. for the previous year. The difference is due to the loss of trade caused by the strike. SUPERIOR EXPERIENCE.—The Globe gives the following: Tiae imaginary invalid who fancies be has had all the diseases in the books or, at least all the interesting ones, is not often an amusing person to a physician, but now and then a valetudinarian of this sort affords the faculty a good deal of diversion. A man of 60, who had been a grumbler all his life and had long made a practice of changing his doctors on the slightest provoca- tion not long ago called in a young physician who bad gained a considerable reputation. He was telling this doctor what he thought was the trouble with him, when the doctor ventured to disagree with his diagnosis. "I beg your pardon," said the patient in a haughty way. "It isn't for a young physician like you to disagree with an old and experienced invalid like me And he went out to seek another physician."
