BOY KILLED. j 1 Mumbles-Road Tragedy. A distressing accident occurred on the I Mumblee-road, near the Recreation Ground, at St. Gabriel's, Swansea, on I Thursday night, as the result of which, a little boy named Frederick Austin (6), of I 61, Rodney-Street, died at the Swansea Hospital at 11 p.m. ROLLED UNDER TRAIN. j The little lad, who lived with his grandfather at 61, Rodney-street, was playing on the Prom on a do, and it is -sur- mised that he must have rolled down the bank on to the railway line just as the Mumbles train was passing at about 8.45 p.m. on its way to Mumbles. It was difficult to extricate the poor little sufferer, and in order to remove him it was found necessary to detach part of the train at about the centre. The lad's let's were very badly crushed, and his head was also injured. After receiving first aid he was taken to the Hospital in his car by Mr. Seldon. Here the extent of the crushing was revealed, and he passed awav as stated. CROWD OF SYMPATHISERS. A large number of persons were on the Promenade at the time, and a crowd of sympathisers watched or assisted in the effort to get the little boy from his position under the train. His groans were distressing to hear. The police report states that no one actually witnessed the acc:<k-nt, and it is surmised that' deceased came down the steps from the Promenade, getting on to the line just as the train passed. The first coach, it is stated, passed over his legs. A sad fact: is that the little boy'e father "Was killed in France.

SCALE ADOPTED. I Swan sea Electrical I Engineer's Increase. I A meeting of Swansea Electricity Com- mittee was held on Thursday afternoon, Ald. A. Sinclair presiding, when the question of the application by the Elec- trical Engineer for an inorease in &ala.ry was a pa in considered. The Chairman paid that a similar appli- cation in London was now a matter of arbitration, the finding of which had not yet been published. The question was whether they were to await that av,?N which would no doubt be accepted as f basis throughout the country, or antici- pate it by granting the scale. Air. James called attention to rome cor- resnondence which he said had been with- held from February to June from the Electrical Committee. MINISTRY OF LABOUR. Mr. Dan Jones said they were informed that if they did not go into arbitration the Ministry of Labour could make an award. There had been a difference of opinion as to whether the Ministry of Labour had a right to make an award. Mr. James repeated his oompla-int that, something peemed to hare been withheld from the Electrical Committee; he did not know who was responsible. The Chairman pointed out that they conlrl not have an arbitration till both sides had asked for it. They (the com- mittee) had not 8sh'd for arbitration. They now had either to confirm the scale or ask for arbitration; bA saw nothing but one of these courses. There had been no application for arbitration from any body but the London Electrical Station. Mr. Ball suggested that if the electrical engineers did not have their demand con- ceded they might withdraw their labour. What had happened with the bottom dog was now being done on top. The Chairman: I don't think it has gone. so far as that. DIRECT ACTION." Mr. Ball: It's a question of direct action which the workers are condemned for B.ing. The Chairman did not a,gree. The Elec- j trioal Association was not, a trades union. | Mr. Ball urged that calling it asso- elation was caKH>uP.a<r» tfyc same ps tie T ■ Mr. James was in fajItr of A dêtljon here without, reference t.) London. They had a man with the full respottw-bility of th tmm. and they should consider it from that standpoint, ani not allow any outside interference. Tie held that no Ministry of Labour and no arbitrator could carry this out if the committee failed. The Chairman said tht-re were three courses open to thecomlllittee-to agree to the scale, to take no notice, or ask for I arbitration. He pointed out that there were two associations of engineers, and -rr>]v one bad put forward n claim. SCALE ADOPTED.

Although nothing c-oneerning it has, as I yet, b-aen made public, the miner, of I South Wales have been negotiating for an increase in the wage-rate of piece-workers, who, of course, are mainly the coal- cutters. They demanded an advance of 15 per cent. in the piece-work rate: 6o as to place their earnings on the fame basis uude.r the 6-hour day system as rhey were under the 8-hour day arracgSJlfPfrr; Til?* Coal Controller was appealed to, and he decided to award to them an :1. crease of 10 per cent., which is regarded as inadequate to meet the changed condi- tions. This is the principal subject to be dealt with by the conference on Monday, and future action will depend upon the deei- sion of the delegates when fissembled.

His Honour, entered compensation for £ 125, and ad- journed the apportionment. David Edward Davies, of Llandebie, a discharged soldier who bad lost a leg, ap- plied for the payment out bf about £ 130, being one-half of compensation in court for him and his sister.

fAOTCR COLLISION. Ammanf^d Cvclist Claims Damages. The snm of t7r), nrisirg out of a pnr- tilcuJarly violent collision between a motor car and a bicycle, was claimed at the Ammanford County Court., before his Honour Judge Lloyd o r, Thursday, by Dd. Davies, residing at Trapp, agtinst The.?. Davies. owner of car, Ammanford. Mr. T. C. TTurlev was for the plaintiff, and Mr. IV. L; Smith j renreserited the defendant. Mr. Hurley stated the plaintiff vni eveling homewards from Ammar.ford on j February 21st last, about 5 p.m., and when opposite Coronation-terrace, on Llandebie-road. de-fend-mt came nlnng at a rapid pace in his motor car on the wrong side of the road. Plaintiq endea- voured to avoid a collision hv keeping as far as he could on the left hand side of thie road, but the car crashed j into him. He was shot fliroii,7,, the glass screen on to the car. and carried along six or seven yards, bleedinrr nro. fuseL- from two gashes on the haad. The bicycle was passed over and smashed to bits. Plaintiff said it was one of the widest roads in the district, and he. < enld see the far coming along on the wrong side for about 150 yards. THE DEFENCE. -1 The defence was that the plaintiff was j on the wrong side of the road, and de- fendant on his proper side, blowing his horn, and going at a steady pace. Plain- tiff kept on, and defendant to avoid run- ning him over, swerved over, but the I plaintiff did likewise, crossing over right in front of the car, Mr. Smith said there was every reason why defendant should not be on his wrong side, as some years ago his license was suspended for being drunk in charge i t)f a metfor car. As he had been deprived of his livelihood, an appeal on his behalf was made to the Fom« Office, and the license was restored to him a few months before this accident. It was natural to expect, that h*> now should Juve taken the ¡ greatest possible oare. Defendant told his Hono-ur that he I crossed to the wrong side of the road to i oblige plaintiff. Hs always did that when he could not have his proper side, DANGERS OF POLITENESS. 1 His Honour: I should advise you to change your plan ,or ebe you will find I yourself in trouble again. You ought to have *odjusted your speed so that no in- jury was possible. j Mary James, Garnant. one of the pas- sengers in the car, said they were on the proper side, and the plaintiff staggered I ahIlg on his wrong side. knowing not which side to turn. The hearing was adjourned.
