???    £ 00,000 LOST J I rvilSS TALBOTJS GENEROSITY. WHAT WORKING Dr P3RT TALBOT PITS m li4"40i.VED. LAW CflURTS SEQUEl.1 In the Chauc»ry Division to-dav Mr. Justice Joyce coul:uuoiI iiio h?arin,j of the action which is m mg brought by Lord Ashbv St. Ledger against Emily Charlotte To Unit, with regard to a mining lease at. jjlangyutvyd. Plain- tilf's acsion was to,- damages tor alleged breach oi a coveixaa- to constinue wor- king. This morning his Lordshjj) asked Mr. Upjohn, K.C., tm: t-he defendant. wiietht;r client ntsaul to work the mine again. Mr. I pjohn Tor the moment we have stopped working. }' Lordship: Mr. Upjohri: liecavsse Miss TalLot has lost £ '90,000 in ,!u> last iive or six years. Miss Talbot herscli cvner ot. about 700 acres. She let that to a man named Lindley, who?e titie to her le<\sc, became vested m The Jones's. 'lhe Joneses did not work the colliery, and she had to bring an ejectment. Then it boraxne a question oi closing the iiary, where there weiv some 500 or tiOO iorkpeople, and they elected a deputa- tion which wont tD her and said, "Xow.j rou are a rich lady, a great lady to the leighbou; hood, are you as a I-c,iilt .his ejectment going to throw oOO men aut of work! Mi*s Talbot said. I won't; I will take it on myself. Miss Talbot's Generosity. I She therefore continued the working of her own coal, and in connection witri j which she had to t«ke? the working of two ,siiiall pil.,6, the Toaer Mine and' the plaintiff's. Mis:> Talbot has worked j them, year aiter year, at a- loss of seme-1 times £ 12.001) and sometimes £ 13,000. Over five or six yean; the loss on work- ing alone has been just under £ÔO,OOÜ,. and if you add to that the capital ex- penditure she has had to make by way of plant and development, the total Joss is £ 90,000. Of course lalbot iN a rich bdy, but —— oke. Mr. Upjohu No, and she put the matter into the hands of her mh-isers, and under their arh-ice dIe werking was stopped pending the arrival 01 better t.mtft. His Lordship: Times are good, now. Mi. Upjohn: Coal sells tor twice as much now as it used to. His Lordship: Ot course vou are a1- na-s having trouble with your work- people Mr. Upjohn: We think it will sell for twice as much again, and then we I will be able to work, if not at a profit at least, not at a k-ss. I An Agreement Dropped. I Proceeding counsel said that lozers ) had agreed to drop the agreement on the understanding, and it the working was commenced again they would go on with the agreement. His Lordship: Why does this not pay. Is it not a first ratA coal? Mr. [pjohn said it was a good coal stittx a great many diiffculties. The I great dithe,ilty was the inclination of the seams which enormously increased the; quantity of small coal, and limited the output. Of course there were times when small coal could be sold at re- munerative prices, but the defendant was advised not to go on working at present. The plaintiff, however, stood on hfs rights. Miss Talbot accord- ingly now said to him, "You won't meet me in any way, although I went into this from philanthropic motives, and although you are one of the great lr.nd- | owners of the district and a heir and so on I His Lordship: And a Government official. Mr. Upjohn: Yes, a member of the Ministry.—"You won't help me. Xow do your worst. What your rights are vou will have, but I am not going to submit to a payment of £,W(J, in order to be quit of this liability." H is Lordship's Suggestion. I Proceeding, Counsel said that Lord St. Ledger claimed damages amounting tooting of Miss Talbot j never working the mine again, and he supposed his lordship also wanted his j coal back again. His Lordship: What part of Glamor- gan is this in? Mr. Upjohn: Not far from Swansea. His Lordship: It occurs to me that you are prepared to submit to an enquiry as to damages up to now. I think It w ill have t(,' go to s<-m-o i in par- tial engineer for that purpose. Mr. Upjohn: Of course we invite an open enquiry. We sav the damage." are nil. Proceeding, counsel suggested that if the question of damage.s were to be referred, perhaps the most con- venient course would be for the judge to make a declaration whether thai plaintiff was entitled to damages on the footing that he had lost 8011 the .royalties pajable during the lease owing to the defendant's eonduct, or whether the plaintiff was only entitled to what- ever damage he had suffered at the date; of the payments into the court by the defendant. Then a rather nice question I as to cmtt, might arise. Base of Plaintiff's Claim. Mr. Hughes, K.C., for the plaintiff, flaid his client had been distinctly in- formed that the defendant had no in- tention w hatever of working the mines further, and it was on. that the plain- tiff based his claim for damages on the fooling of the repudiation of the con- tract. After Mr. Upjohn's statement he could not persist in asking for damages on that fooling. hV would suggest that he should have the costs of the trial and that the costs of any inquiry as to damages might be re- served. Inquiry Ordered. In the end his Lordship ordered an inquiry as to what damages the plain- tiff had suite red, to take place before an engineer to be agreed upon by the j Mtfties. or. failing that, before the li I 11-efLre?e. ?r, ( c),, ? I sA-ere re- f?nci'?1 R?tcree. All costs were re- | served.

WIRELESS WORK. ■ — P33T O¡fIGE SFfiDIAL AND A STATE i CABLE. A sitting of Royal Dominions Com- mission. which has already sat in Aus tralia and is visiting South Africa in the New Year, was held in London to- day, for the purpose of hearing evid- ence. Mr. Crabb. C.B., second secretary to the Post Office, gave evidence respect- ing cubic communication with various parts of the Dominions. He was not aware, he said of any agreement among the cable companies which might tend to kern up the rates. The Post Office, it was pointed out, were of opinion that from a commercial point of v.ew the provision o 1a State I cable across the Atlantic was not at present justifiable. The deficit would be about ;L20.000 a year if it carried the present Pacific traffiv at the exist- ing rate. i Bepiying to further questions witness said ([Ie developments of wireless tele- graphy no doubt contributed to the opinion of the Post Office that the pre- sent time was inopportune for estab- lishing a State cable. There was a de- sire in every way to consult the British Dominions overseas, but the cutting of rates bv wireless telegraphy, and the possibilities of serious and 00 in- terruption in cables must baconsidered in connection with the question of an Imperial cable.

Dorothy Thomas, aged nine years, said thit a fortnight ago she went with her feioter to the blacksmith's shop. On her way she paosed some boys near Park-lane, a.mon gwhom were the two defendants, who assaulted her. When t-he reached home she complained to her mother. Davies: How could you identify me seeing that, it was dark? Witness: I linow you by your voice. Maggie Jane Thomas, as^d 11 years, sister of the last witness, said the defendant's did nothing to her except run after her. Ou returning she Beird her sister ecreaming, and the defendants were catching hold of her. It was tight enough for her to identify the defendant* The Clerk (to Supt. Jones) The charge is onl yone of common assault. Supt. Jonets: Ye6; because very likely it was only horseplay on the part of the defen- dants. j Marffiret Jane Thomas said that when her daughter returned home she was crying and she made a complaint. TRIED TO FRiUHTEN GIRLS. P.C. D. Davies said he charged the de-fen- dants with indecently assaulting Dorothy Thomas. Jenkints said, I aid not do it," but. when hie mother threatened to thrash him, he said, We only pulled onr oapt. over our eyes to frighten them." Davies said, I crid not do anything. Baden ran after the little pri'rt and oaughi hold of her I tried to stop him." Griffith John Davies repeated the state- ment- he made to the con-stable, and Jenkins said he had nothing to say. Jestyn Daviee. oouein of one of the defen- dants. said that Jenkins tried to frighten Dorothy Thomas, but Dia-vke did nothing. The Bench found both defendants guilty, and after reprimanding them their parents were bound over for 12 months to see that they are of good behaviour.
