MONEY MARKET. I - -I
MONEY MARKET. LONDON", Tuesday. Rather better inquiry prevailed for discounts,but as there is an abundance of money lying idle, rates keep low. Inquiry on the Stock Exchange account was comparatively slight. Banks lent to the House at the rate of 1 to i per cent. per annum for the fortnight. Day-to-day loans were not wanted, and were quoted at to per cent., and thiee months' hills are negotiated at i to iI per cent. Continental Exchanges are ruling rather more favourably to up, but no particular change can be reported. The Paris Cheque rate was telegraphed 25'18. On the Stock Exchange scarcely anything was done beyond arranging account. Stock was not plentiful, particularly in the English Railway Market, where enforcement of fines was not in. K freotieiit. Continuation rates in all cases were light, and it does not appear that there are large differences to be paid thia settlement. True, a considerable rise has taken place in American Railways, but this is mainly a rfflecti-on of the movement reported from New York, and does not represent actual dealings here for a moment. Indeed, Stock Exchange business is very quiet, and it does not seem lijceiy that pay day will bo a busy day. Rome Government Securities were flat. Con- sols fell 116, closing at 99 to 991 for delivery and account.. Reduced and New 3 per Cents, 99g to lool Nc exv 24 per Cents., 87j to 88. A very quiet business was done in the English Railway Market, and butsiight changes occurred. i The tendency was not strong. Heavy lines were scarce on the Great Western and North-Eastern, thuir backwardation being about £ per cent. The revenue statement of th* Manchester,Sheffield,and Lincolnshire Railway shows a loss in nett revenue up to July 19th of 92,110 Great Eastern traffic shows an increase of £105: Great North < f Scotland show a decrease of £ 1,030.

---CLEVELAND IRON MARKET.
CLEVELAND IRON MARKET. MIDDLESBOROUGK, Tuesday.—The iron market WAS a shade better as regarded tone, but in other respects unchanged. The higher rates for Scotch iron have re-acted slightly upon the Cleveland trade for the better. The price of No. 3 was 31s 10id to 32s with merchants, makers quoting 32s 3d to 32s 6d. No. 4 is at 31s to 31s 3d. Warrants show no change, being quoted at the same nominal rate of 32s 9d. Messrs Gonnal's stock is 59,263 tons—an increase of 1,581 tons upon the week.

The finished iron trade is very slack, and short time is the rule at most of the works, while prices keep down. Manufacturers still quote bars at £ 4 15s ship-plates, £ 4 17s; girder-plates, £ 5 angles, 94 10,i. less commission. The steel and other trades of the district show no change.

MORNING GALLOPS. GOODWOOD, TUESDAY MORNING. Although the morning was dull and threatening for rain, the downpour fortunately-held off during exer- cise hours, and as usual a large and influential com- pany paid a visit to the park before breakfast. The horses engaged in the Goodwood Plate did little more than take healthy exercise. The Stewards' Cnp horses. however, were all doing good work. Goldstone, with Wall in the saddle, covered six furlongs at a nice pace, and a similar distance was negotiated by Mate, St. Blaise, Brag, Laeeman. Fulmen, Duke of Richmond, Eastern Emperor, Energy, Satchel, and Pearl Diver but Gurry's, Perrin's, and several other teams did their work on the Halnaker gallop. Althorp, ridden by G. Barrett, and Saucy Boy, steered by Lemaire, covered the Good wool Cup course at a good pace, and no horse could look or move better than Baron Hirsch's representative.

CRICKET. I LANCASHIRE V. SUSSEX. This match was concluded on Tuesday, at Manches- ter, in brilliant weather, the home county winning by 154 runs. Some fine batting was shown on the Lanca- shire side, whilst the Sussex fielding was not very smart. Sussex on going in (with 26a asainst them) started badly, losing one wicket for none, and two for 13 runs. After this Newham and Humphreys played good and patient cricket, and Jesse hit in very lively I style while he was in. The Lancashire fielding was very smart, Royle, Hildyard, Barlow, Briggs, and Robinson frequently distinguishing themselves. Kimble kept wicket in very creditable style. Score:— LAN CAST?

RITUALISM AT ABERDARE. TO THE EDITOR. Sia,-I should feel obliged if you would allow n.e to say a few words upon Ritualism, which I see is now being discussed in your paper, and which your correspondent, Another Railway- man seems to be thoroughly wrapped up in. Having been a Churchman for the last 40 years, and being compelled now to leave it through the introduction of what I call pantomimic per- formances in the Church, I cannot but feel strongly on the matter. Your correspondent seems to think that only those who belong to the Church (Catholic, as he calls it, but it should be the Church of Christ) have a chance of heaven, This is insolent presumption. What is the Church of Christ ? Have not the churches of Scotland, Germany, Russia, and even the Coptic, all seceded from the Church of Rome, and all wor- ship with a different form from that of the Church of England? What right has be, therefore, to say they alone are right,—I am, &c., A. 0. ATTWOOD. Nightingale-atreot, Abercanaid, July 27, 1888.

DEATH OF SIR MOSES MONTEFIORE.
DEATH OF SIR MOSES MONTEFIORE. Sir Moses Montefiore died at half-past four on Tuesday afternoon, at his residence at Ramsgate. The Ramsgate Town Council, which was sitting at the time the news reached them, broke up in consequence of the sad event. An order was given for the Town-hall to be draped in black, and the mayor intimated that he would summon the council to attend the funeral. SKETCH OF HIS LIFE AND WORK. The venerable baronet was born on the 24th Oct., 1784, a year later than the recogni- tion of American Independence, and consequently has died in his 101st year. Mon- tefiore, the town from which the subject of this sketch derives his name, is a little place of some two thousand, nestling on the eastern slope of the Apenines. It was from a family of English Jews of Dutch descent that i- Montefiore the elder had taken a wife, and the son born while Jews still suffered from galling and degrading ordinances has lived to see his fellows seated in the British House of Lords and Commons. His long tenure of life has been mainly devoted to the service of mankind. Nor does the fact that he has mainly given his time and wealth to the assistance of his Hebrew compatriots in any way detract from the credit of his position. It is natural that the work to which he gave himself should have been chiefly with a view to relieve and assist those who were his kinsmen after the flesh. But although his charity began at home, almost countless acts of unsectarian benevolence have become known. Every Mansion House subscrip- tion list contains his name; nearly every secre- tary of a benevolent society knew his tine Italian hand and eligible, though occasionally tremulous, signature. His year of office as Sheriff of London, now nearly half a century ago, was distinguished for the large collections made for city charities. His local benefactions to the poor of Ramsgate won him unbounded popularity, and the clergy of all the religious denominations were con- tinually bia almoners. Sir Moses Montefiore, in all, made seven visits to Palestine for the purpose t of relieving the pressure of want felt by bis fellow Hebrews. In Palestine lie endowed hospitals and almshouses, set on foot agricultural enterprises, planted gardens, dug wells, constructed aqueducts, and ibuilt synagogues. The last of these pilgrimages was in 1875, when he was already at the age of of 91 1 The earlier visits were made in company with his wife (she was Judith, daughter of favi Bareiit Cohen, and the sister of Judith united the families of Montefiore and Rothschild by becoming the w ife of Nathaniel Meyer Rothschild). In 1835 a Board of Deputies of English Jews was formed, of which Mr Montefiore was chosen presi- dent, and his operations were henceforth mainly carried on in that capacity, though no less at his own expense. In 1838, immediately after being released from the onerous duties and the responsi- bilities of the shrievalty—having been knighted during his year of office — Sir Moses and Lady Montefiore started on their second voyage to the Holy Land. In 1840 a third visit was prompted by tho need of some vigorous and effectual interposition, owing to the bitter fire of persecution through which the Jews were called to pass. After this ensued a brief period in the career of Sir Moses in which he and many of his fellow Jews in England were engaged in a conflict of opinion and action. Holding deeply-rooted orthodox views, he opposed the reform" Hebrew party, who. led by the Goldsmids and some members of his own family, now constituted the synagogue in Berkeley- street. While he has always professed himself conservative, Sir Moses Montefiore promoted progress among backward communities of Jews, as in Palestine aud Poland. He, however, always urged gradual progress, and advo- cated respect to constituted authorities, both deprecating and fearing sudden cl"llIges. In 1845 events in Poland called the adventurous couple to Russia. The Emperor Nicholas had some three millions of Jews brought beneath the Muscovite rule by the conquest of Poland and Lithunia. In his haste the Czar neglected the policy of toleration, and sought to assimilate the Tews to the Russians by carrying off their sons in jreat numbers to serve in the army and navy. The conscription was enforced with great severity, md when those who lived near the frontier sought to escape into Austria, Prussia, or the Danubian Principalities, a ukase was issued ordering all Jewish families living within fifty versts of the boundaries to be removed to the interior of the kingdom. Intelligence of these oppres- sions was no long in reaching England. [n the .Intry weather of February and March, 184b, Sir Moses and Lady Monte- lore travelled to St. Petersburg, occupy- ng more than a month on the journey, n compliance with the philanthropists' request, le ukase was first suspended and then aban- doned, and tbe Emperor g»ve every assurance bat the general treatm^at of Jewish subjects nould Lie moderated. The next few years were pent in ^peaceful labours at home in superintend- ig Jewish education, in securing the insertion of roper ciau>ss for the protection of Jewish mar- i'tages in the Marriage Act, and in general co- f>eration with other benevolent men of his own lith. Famine in Jerusalem followed quickly in be train of the outbreak of the Russian war, and he MonttSorns were again in Palestine in 853. On titsir way thiough Constantinople, >y the aid of Lord Hiratford de Red- liffe, a firman was procured from the ultn authorising the purchase of land. 'n the territory thus acquired Sir Moses built se Touro almshouses and a windmill. He oened a girls' school and an industrial school, ad had tbe public slaughtering place removed f;m the Jewish quaiter of Jerusalem, where oU had been suffered to accumulate from the dvs of Caliph Omar, to a place without the city. Iraddition to these works of practical useful- ne?, agricultural colonies were planted at Safed an Tiberias. Other visits to Jerusalem in futherance of these several projects took place in '.849, 1857, and 1866. The year 1858 wit- nd an abortive attempt to rescue Edgar Moiara, son of Jewish parents, who had been surrptitiously baptised at Bologna, and was rc. tainU by the Roman Catholics to be trained as a monl He sustained himself mainly upon milk and prt wine, sometimes varied by a little soup, or br(kd and butter. In middle life he smoked, but lany years ago ceased to use tobacco. Anoter old custom, which he observed till a littleover 20 years ago, vr&a to wear the long blue coat with gilt buttons which was the ordinry dress of a gentleman in his youth. His frillei shirt and his Sedan chair are also relics of the olen times. He completed his 100th year on Fridar, October 24th, 18&4.

They complained o. ill-treatment by the officers, and of insufficient iread, but it was not true that there was any ground for these complahts. A project was entertained to "ipolish off be whohof the officers and run the ship ashore. )n the 1th April the second mate was induced o go foward, and when his back was turned tie prisoier struck him on the head with a batchel from he effect of which he died twelve days aterwardi One of the seamen, on seeing what wis done, threw himself overboard.

PRIZE DAY AT LLANDOVERY COLLEGE.
PRIZE DAY AT LLANDOVERY COLLEGE. PRESENTATION TO THE WARDEN. The annual distribution of prizes at Llandovery College took place on Tuesday. In the morning the Rev. G. W. Gent, of Keble College, Oxford, preached atLlauding at Church. At 12.30 a large number of the friends of the college gathered in the hall,among those:present being the Rev. Chan- cellor Phillips (who took the chair), Ven. Arch- deacon Edmondes, Revs. F. J. Jayne and G. W. Gent: Messrs D. Pugh, Mauoravon; J. Jones, Blaenos W. Jones, Llwyngroes George Jones, Ystrad T. Jones, county treasurer, Llandovery; and a large number of ladies. The Rev A. G. EDWARDS read a statement of the work of the school during the past ten years, from which we make the following extracts :— Having mentioned various improvements to the fabric and the number of endowments, he pro- ceeded to say :-During the ten years from August 1st, 1875, to August 1st, 1885, the number of boys who had been under education in Llan- dovery school is 512. The average age at which the boys entered the school was 14 l-5th years. Out of these 512 boys, 321 were the sons of Church people, and 191 of Nonconformists. It is a significant and stubborn fact that more than one-third of the boys attending the Llandovery School during the last ten years have been the sons of Nonconformist parents. (Applause.) The subsequent history of those out of the 512 who had left the school, and who had actually or practically entered upon a career, is as follows, viz. :-53 have gone to Oxford or Cambridge 64 to business 53 to the Church 44 to the medical profession 35 to the law 23 to agriculture 21 to banks 13 to the colonies; 12 to the scholas- tic profession 10 are chemists; 7 are sailors 4 are in the army; 4 are engineers 2 are Noncon- formist ministers and 9 are dead. Having detailed a lengthy list of honours and distinctions gamed by the school from 1875 to 1885, whatever (the warden continued) might be the value of those results, they had been obtained without any material assistance or very friendly countenance from Government, or Government committees, or any such bodies. The CHAIRMAN distributed the prizes as fol- lows ;— OLASSICS.-Form VI.-Foi-m prize, n. E. Leigh history prize, R. E. Lnigii Cefnfaes prize, H. E. Thoina., scripture prize, J. E. Jones.

The CHAIRMAN paid a high tribute to the ability which the warden had displayed in his arduous position, and said he had no doubt he would be equally successful in his uew sphere. Mr J. JONES, Blaenos, moved a vote of thanks to the warden for his services during the past year, and Mr T. Jones, county treasurer, Llan- dovery, seconded, and the motion was carried. The WARDEN feelincrlv acknowledged the assist- ance which he had received from the various assistant masters. Mr It. E. LEIGH, one of the scholars, then read an address from the past and present pupils of the school to the warden, in which testimony was borne to the zeal and solf-sacriiicing activity with which the Itev. A. G. Edwards had laboured for the school, and many eood wishes expressed for his continued success in his new sphere of labour, and then presented Mr Edwards with a time-piece, two handsome candelabra, and a pair of entree dishes as an abiding remembrance o days which would never be forgotten by the pupils, and an expression of gratitude for the interest taken in them, not only while in school, but afterwards continued to those who had left. The WARDEN briefly acknowledged the gift. Mr A. E. THOMAS, on behalf of the present members of the school, presented a complete edition (in 24 volumes), of Thackeray's works to Mr E. M. Roderick, B.A., assistant classical master, who is about to leave Llandovery College. Mr RODERICK having acknowledged ths gift, the proceedings terminated.

At the Swansea Town-hall on Tuesday a Board of Trade inquiry was opened for the pur- pose of ascertaining the circumstances attending the loss of the barque Talca, of Swansea, owned by Alderman Tulloch and others, which left Eng- land last November on a voyage to the Cape, and has not been heard of since. Mr J. Coke Fowler acted as judge, and lie was assisted by Captains T. Besley and W. Parfit. Mr Herbert Monger was clerk of the cotirt Mr Ravenhill, instructed by Mr Edward Strick, appeared for the Board of Trade Mr Robinsou Smith for the owners and there were also pre- sent Mr Wales, her Majesty's Inspector of Mines; Mr Aston, Lloyd's surveyor and Mr Dixon, Bo ird of Trade surveyor. From the statement of Mr Ravenhill, it appears that on tho 18th November the Taica left Swansea, with a cargo of 660 tons of coal, for tho Cape. with a crew of 12 hands, and she had not been heard of since sicrhted outside the Mumbles. When sliesailpcl was, according to the owners, ia good trim, ana the result of an inspection by the Board of Tracls surveyor, who had since died, boro this out. She was Jaden with coal from the Ocean Colliery-a. coal of a semi-anthracite character, which threw off a great deal of gas, and necessitated careful ventilation. In this case, however, the evidence did not point to spon- taneous combustion. There were ventilators fore and aft, but he was unable to give further par- ticulars about her because the specifications and drawings were lost. A point worth considering was that soon after she sailed a heavy gale was encountered.Mr Tulloch, in h s examination, said the vessel was in a thoroughly seaworthy condition when she sailed, and that she was pro- perly ventilated.—Mr Wales gave evidence as to nature of the coal from the Ocean Colliery, and said it was not of tho nature which would cause spontaneous combustion.— Mr Evans, of the Ocean Colliery, said the barque was loaded between November 7th and 14th with coal cut from the four-feet and nine-feet veins, and that the weather was during both the time of cutting and loading fine. He agreed with Mr Wales that there had never been a case of spontaneous combustion in South Wales laden coal vessels. -Evidence was given shewing that before her last voyage the Talca was examined, and it was recommended that her ventilators should be slightly enlarged, and a report was put in, from which it appeared that the late Board of Trade surveyor had examined the barque the day before she sailed, and discovered that the ventilators had been en- larged, though hardly to the extent recommended. -Mr Batchelor said lie built the barque 17 years ago for Messrs Cory Bros., of Cardiff, from designs supplied by them. She had a canoe bottom, and was intended for the copper ore trade. On her first voyage she had 250 tons of ballast, and so nearly capsized that the captain said he would have nothing to do with her. He feared she was, on her last voyage, loaded too deeply with coal.-Evidence was given by the pilot and coal trimmer, and the inquiry was ad- journed.
THE TRADE DEPRESSION AT DOWLAIS.
THE TRADE DEPRESSION AT DOWLAIS. Work was resumed on Tuesday morning at all the Dowlais collieries, and for the most part the men who have been idle since Saturday have returned to their former employment. Some, however, who suspected that the stoppage would last throughout the week did not go to Cueharris station yard on Tuesday morning, and conse- quently could not be conveyed to the pits, some of which are more than- six miles distant from Dowlais. It is, however, confidently expected that every man will be at work on Wednesday. The families of the colliers do not attempt to hide their satisfaction at the resumption of work, far they have not forgotten the terrible effects of the depression which prevailed during the winter of 1877. Although work has been resumed there are many persons who believe that the last has not yet been heard of the crisis, and they believe that the men will again be placed on the short week system.

A CHESTER MISER. An inquiry before a Crown Commissioner was held at Chester on Monday relating to the property of Abraham Price, who died without having made a will, leaving property of the value of nearly £ 1,000. Abraham Price, better known in Chester as Abraham Hodge, the miser," was for many years in the Chester police force. On his retirement he opened a second-band bookstall in ono of the recesses in the ancient rows of Chester, which was much fre- quented by Americans and visitors. Every investigation to discover his relations has been fruitless. The jury found that Price died intestate, and all his property goes to the Crown.

.-----------BRISTOL REPORTERS…
BRISTOL REPORTERS AND THE TOWN COUNCIL. On Tuesday the Bristol Town Council met to consider dock and other questions, but their meet- ing, for the first time within memory was unre- ported. Recently the reporters' desks, which have always given insufficient accommodation, have been moved to a position near the back of the room, where correct hearing is almost impos- sible. Members of the council at once called attention to the inconvenience of the seats, bnt no alteration was made, and a letter to the Mayor failed to bring a remedy. The reporters accord- ingly left the room in a body on Tuesday until better accommodation is given. The council's proceedings will probably be unknown to the public.

Bearman and William Giles, Hull, smackmen, to five years' penal servitude for brutally ill-using a Russian Fin named Jacob Mailty, on board a smack on the North Sea. The evidence disclosed hotrible cruelty, and it was only when the prisoner's feared the Fin would die that they desisted.—Justice Wills said a sailor's life afforded exercise for great heroic power, but sometimes it was made the means of converting ships into a terrible hell.
