1 A STOWAWAY 1. 1 Stiaiige Find on 1.34. I RETURNING TO-MORROW. The R 34 safely reacted Mineola, Long Island. on Sunday, at 2 p.m. Greenwich mean time, having accomplished her voyage of more than 3.100 nautical iniles-- or 3.523 ordinary miles—from East For- tune. on the Firth of Forth, in 108 hours 12 minutes. The King sent the following message to General Maitland on learning- the rews:- Heartiest congratulations to yourself and crew of R 34 on your splendid achieve- ment and best wishes for a safe return. Your'flight marks the beginning of an era in which the English-speaking peoples, already drawn together in war, will be even more closely nr. i ted in peace. ONLY 15 GALLONS LEFT. The last stage of the airsaip s voyage yas of the most eventful character. Owing to strong ksiid winds her petrol supply ran short, and she was compelled to send messages for help. In response to nese, United States destroyers were wished to meet her. She announced that ehe would land at Boston, but decided to make Chatham. Then she fixed on Meri- tatik Point, and finally, owing to a favour- able change in the weather, she was able to reach her goal. Her success is ex- plained by a wireless message sent by her commander during the hours of greatest peril :— We are sticking it. When she reached Mineola she had only fifteen gallons of petrol left. OFFICIAL REPORT. The Air Ministry issued the toliovring report yesterday afternoon:— R 34 landed safely at Hazelhurst Field (Mincola., Long Island), at. 3 p.m., British summer time, to-day (JO a.m. New York time). She has thus accomplished her voyage of over 3,100 nautical miles, the longest ilight ever made by any aircraft, in 108 liours 12 minutes. R 34 completed the distance under her own power. The destroyers whicib the U.S. Navv authorities dispatched to her assistance as a precautionary measure, in view of her petrol supply being nearly exhausted, weTs not utilised to. take R 34 in tow. A PARACHUTE DESCENT. I NEW YUKJv, sunaay. I tie E. 34 arrived at Roosevelt j Field and was hovering 200 feet in the I air awaiting final preparations for her reception, Major Pritcha.rd jumped from I the balloon in a parachute, and made a good landing. The crew remain at Mineola for 12 hours to get food and fuel, after which Major Scott has planned to fly over New York City and Washington before com- mencing his return vo\ age.—Exchange. STOWAWAY ON AIRSHIP. I Remarkable Discovery When R 34 Was Six Hours Out. MIA ivJ-LA, baturoaiy (rec. Mon<ta-y>. Six hours after the R 34 left, a stowa-vi-ay j was found in the person of a former mem- ber of the crew named Ballantyne. He had to work his passage, but will not be j allowed to return in the airship. I RETURNING TO-MORROW. MINEOLA, Sunday (rec. Monday). The crev of the K 34. although happy, were haggard and unshaven, and their eyee were bloodshot. It eemed as thougfh the atmosphere were haunted by 5,000 devils/' said Capt. Harris, the airship's weather expert, describing the final journey. General Maitland announces that the return trip will be probably made on Tuesday morning. Major Cooke, navigating officer, said the weather situation in the Atlantic must be investigated thoroughly before travel by air between England and America can be made safe and practicable. U I consider it almcet a miracle we com- pleted the trip successfully," he said, after what we went through last night." At the subsequent lunciheon. General Maitlar-d predicted that within a few years airships five times as large as the R 34. with a liftinf capacity of 280 tons, would cross the Atlantic. AIRSHIP OVER SWANSEA I The sight of a fine airship, b.L.l, pass- ing over Swansea, and hovering over the district for some time, attracted a good deal of attention, the flight being watched bv a considerable number of people. The rumour spread that th_M& ship was likely to deeoend on the out. skirts of the town, but there is nothing so picturesque to witness.

2- THE EX-KAISER. Holland Ready to Surrender Him. The tribunal which wdl try the ex- Kaiser will, it is understood, be ab- lutely free to inflict on him any penalty which they think fit, even death. There is no truth in the statement so widely ciroul.ated that the consent of the representatives of the United States waf, only obtained to the trial-of WLhelm II. on the condition that a death sentence was not to be passed. THE JUDGES. lection has yet been made, but it is under stood that in each, case the choice will fall upon the ohief of the judiciary in i each country. If this be 60, Great Britain will be represented by the Lord I Chief Justice (Lo d Reading); France by the President of the Court of Cassation, and America, Italy and Japan by the Presidents of their Supreme Courts. The trial is to take place, as has al- ready been announced, before five judgos, one each from Great Britain, France, the United States, Italy and Japan. No 6e- The demand for the surrender of the Kaiser has been made to the Dutch Gov- ernment jointly by all the Powers of the Entente. HOLLAND'S ATTITUDE. The attitude of the Dutch Government is understood to be that, while protestimg as a sovereign Power agains; what is felt to be a breach of the right of asylum, it doer, not feel itself in a position to resist th £ demand of the Powers. The Imperial criminal will, there eeems 110 doubt, be handed over to the Br^ish Authorities, Holland making clear her spleition in the matter. ■

ROW IN CHAPEL. Drunken Spree-and What it Cost. 11 At Abera-v-on on Monday, foui- young men, Ivor Jenkins, Joseph Griffiths, 31or- gan Matthews, and T. Davies, Pontaiydy- fen, were fined t-3 lis. &ach under the Places of Worship Aot for indecent be- haviour at Sardis Chapel, Pontrhydyfen. Supt. Ben Evans, who prosecuted, said the defendants were returning from Naaifch a,bout midnight on Saturday, June 15th, when they pushed open the door of cjar- dis Chapel, went inside the on a pel, bore leaves out of the Bible, and dId other daituige iriiide and outside the building, and behaved in a most improper manner. On going to the ohapel on bunday morn- ing the deacons and minister discovered wha thad occurred. Supt. Evans sa-id that in a civilised oQuntry he would have thought that what had happened would bave been reported to. the poiioe, but nothing of the kind was done, as, he added, it seems such iiduct is tolerated there, as the reaccas a,'H minited had seen the four young ni-tL'l and had settled thé whole thing for But, continued, Supt. Evans, happily the local ooijistafble reported the matter to him, and he took proceedings. The dhape.L officials declined to give any infor- mation, and it was only after witness had summoned tJhem and gave them the usual conduct money that they came forward. The first witness was the Rev. dames Williams, the pastor of the chapel, who said that the oover of the English. Bible was torn and the globe a lamp was broken. Lot Jones, collier, said he was on the way home from Neath at midnig'ht. when he heard a row in the chapel. On investi- gation he found the defendants there. Jenkins was playing the organ, and tixe others were sitting down singing. On his approach they ran away. Oateide he found some torn Bible leaves. Wm. David, one of the deacons, denied having refused to hand over the torn Bible to the police fo<r production in court. It was the congregation who had declined. An enwpty flagon of beer, he said, was found in the chapel. Subse- quently defendants met the officials of the churcii and paid -85 damages. When charged defendants adaautted having been in the chapel, and aid they I were under the influence of drink at the I time. Mr. Wehjle, for the defence, expressed regret, and said that three of the defend- ants had s&rved' in the Army.

Its arrival was awaited by a large gathering, ipelufi- ing General Hanneiean (representing iking Allsert), ses-eral other Beigian ofh- ] ciaii and high British, French, American ] and Belgian oifioers. j The scene was strikingly impressive as j the coihn, borne by eight British soldiers, i was conveyed from the train and placed j upon a gan limber, the troops presenting j I aims, and a military band played tlx; i British National Anthem as the proces- sion began to move off through th* thronged streets towards the Scheldt, es- ocrteti by a Guard of Honour, represent- ing French, American and Scottish mgi. inents. All the street lamps were draped with crepe, and the great bell of the Cathedra' was tolled. J A tfalque had been ereow at the I harbour, and here prayers were recited, | and then General Hannstean. in the r.um^ of the King of the Belgians, pinod on the Union Jack which covered the coffin thi: I Cros of the Order of Leopold. j The body was afterwards taken GSL j board th? destroyer, which at the moment 0:1 its departure was saluted by a salvo, of guns, while troops presented arms and bands played the British Natmal Anthera. ] Th«> destroyer then left for .Flushing, where she anchors for the night, and pro- j ceds to England in the morning. ¡

7" HIS BROTHERS8 MONEY Swansea Man's Breakdown and the Result. For obtaining money by fause pretences from Messrs. Cox and Co., bankers, Arthur William BTazel, Swansea, was I sentenced at Bow-street on Saturday to six months' imprisonment in the second division. Mr. R. O. B. Lane, prosecuting, said I hat a telegram was sent in the name, of rofendant's brother asking for money to e sent to St. Ives. The sum of S35 was and later further sums of £ 40 and -50. Accused, arrested at Dorchester, said: Thrre e-re times when I lose my will-powel., and on these occasions my actions are unaccountable." Major Brazel bad written to Messrs. Cox stating that his brother, the defen- dant, bad held i>. responsible position at the Ministry of Lfebour, gaining a very high reputation for his abilities, but for three or four years had been a -.euro-" c/ anxiety to his relatives on accoun, of his heavy drinking. Defendant left Swansea on May 28th on a salvage steamer, not being heard of again until his arrest. Counsel said he had suffered from re- ligious mania and alcoholic poisoning, He had a wife and three children.

f PfHCE OP M!LK. '1 I Some Phases of the 9d. per Quart Question. Despite the effort f/I. the Swansea Food Control Committee to keep the price of milk for July at 7d., and the ruling of Cardiff and the Ministry in London that the figure should be Rd., the public have after all to pay 9d. The increase wbe permitted by the Food Controller upon the representation of the producers that the amount allowed to them, even with the retail price at 8d., was insufficient to make the business of dairy farming a paying one. Even the Milk Commission and the Consumers' Council admitted the justice of the claim. Swansea Committee does not stand alone in its attitude, and it has now been joined by Carmarthen and Llanelly, both of which committees feel with Swansea that a protest should be made to the Ministry. The action of the Controller is one I that calls for the strongest protest," de- clared one South Walian to a Leader" reportt,r. It is in marked contrast, to the firm attitude taken up by the ate Lord Rhondda, who would not allow him- self to be stampeded by any pressure. The idea of 9d .per quart at the season of the year when milk should be plenti- ful makes one dread to contemplate what the winter prices will be." I VENDORS NOT BENEFITING. I The extra profit, it should be added, does not go to the vendor but to the farmer. As Mr. H. Davies (secretary of the Swansea Dairymen's Association) told a Leader" reporter, the natural attitujb of the dairyman is to sell milk as lo? as possible, for the lower the price the greater the consumption. The farmers' difficulty is due to the early drought, which spoilt the grass crop," added Mr. Davies. I have just heard from one of nxy faxxners that al- ready he has to resort bo oil-oake fqr feeding purposes, witich is an unheard-of thing in July. The or e tiling fcbie feuwjwi;« ws it t t1..t lnH:êlt9d. per Jt serious i proposition for her to face, and in some instances the consumer is meeting the diffienlty by cutting down supplies. This is a very serious matter in families where 1 there are many children, but necessity "admits of no choice in the matter.

r THE JOY LOAN. i Swansea Passes the L500,000 Mark Swansea's War Loan Campaign catai- menced in earnest on Monday, wixon the'i Savings Centre and information bureau opened at cjaUsbury Mouse for purcnases of £5 bonds and (in conjunction with the 1 borough treasurer's office) the supply ox information on all aspects of the two loans. As compared with the remainder of the country, Swansea has done pretty weli, for the £ 500,000 mark was passed on Sat- I urday. Swansea's financial standing and the town's response in inous loans justifies the hoW that when subscriptions close a week hence the total wiU h&Y** reached E2 000,000. The Mayor and t1: borougll. treasurer (who is secretary of the Patriotic War SavKigs Association) j are leaving no stone unturned this week to impress, by interview, the necessity of mobilising every available pound for the easing of the national financial position —and the credit o-f the old borough.
