AFTER THE FIGHT. English Miners Settling Down. FAMILIES STARVING. The Press Association Derby corresponden states that the strike is rapidly closing in the Erewash Valley of Derbyshire. The Digby and Manners Collieries,Ilkestone, will resume full work to-day (Monday) at the old rate of wages. As an outcome of a meeting on Saturday of the district council of the South Derbyshire Asso- ciation, the men are to be allowed to resume work at the old rate of wages at the Granville and Coton Park Collieries, Burton-on-Trent, this (Monday) morning.. Shocking Privations. A series of mass meetings of working men were held on Saturday in various parts of South Staffordshire in support of the miners out on strike at Cannock, at which it was stated there were hundreds of families starving for bread and undergoing shocking privations. It was resolved at each meeting to raise funds, and in some districts substantial sums were realised. Miners and Coalowners. The secretary of the Miners' Union (Mr. Thomas Ashton) announced on Saturday that the miners' executive committee will meet at Derby on Tuesday to consider a resolution passed by the Coalowners' Federation. The Military Sent Home. The squadron of 17th Lancers which has been stationed at Alfreton left on Saturday for Canterbury. The fact is regarded as one of the indications that the miners' strike is approach- ing its end. Derbyshire Getting Worse. The feeling in Derbyshire is said to be grow- ing stronger for resuming work where the old rates will be paid. No Surrender at Leeds. The Leeds miners held a demonstration on Saturday afternoon at Stourton, and pledged themselves to fight to the bitter end, even without funds, rather than submit to any reduc- tion of wages. I South Derbyshire Colliers Resume. A telegram from Ashby de la Zouch says Six hundred men resumed work at Granville and Coton Park Collieries in South Derbyshire this morning. It was agreed at a meeting of the South Derbyshire miners' delegates on Saturday that this course might be adopted, the owners of the two collieries in question having offered the old rate of wages. The cessation of work has lasted nine weeks, and has caused great distress and the colliers appeared eager to re-commence. Threats in Dean Forest. Although, when the terms of the agreement which Mr. Rowlinson and his wage committee made with the coalowners of Dean Forest were CGmaiunicated to the men, they were favourably received, it is now clear that a contrary spirit has sprung up. The federation feeling is dominant in some districts, and at Cinderford and Drybook there is a strong opposition to the sliding-scale. Very grave rumours are abroad of meetings at which resolutions have been passed condemning the agent and all concerned in the, to them, obnoxious settlement. It is further stated that Mr. Pickard has been communicated with, and fit was reported that a federation meeting would oe held at the Speech House on Sunday, and that Mr. Pickard would speak. This, however, a.t any rate, did not come off. Extravagant and wholly unjustifiable abuse is being heaped upon the leaders of the men. A meeting of the em- ployers was held at Gloucester on Saturday, and mass meetings of the men are being arranged to further consider the new phase which the malcontents have provoked. Flintshire Still Undecided. A statement appeared in the Liverpool papers on Saturday that the men employed at the Glyn Colliery had resumed work on an offer made by the proprietors of an advance in wages of 10 per cent. The detachment of Hussars billeted at Mold were immediately summoned, and marched, in the bitter weather prevailing, to protect the men who intended to go down from the inter- ference of the strikers. The statement was, however, unfounded.

MORE ABOUT ARDLAMONT. Strange Story About the Letting of the Shootings. The Press Association has received the fol- lowing extraordinary intelligence from a corre- spondent at Glasgow :—A sensational rumour has been circulated regarding the Ardlaniont mystery, namely, that a poacher, while col- lecting some grouse, bidden amongst the brushwood, saw the whole of the tragedy in which Lieutenant Hambrotigh was the unfortu- nate victim, but feared for some time to mention the fact because of the possible consequonces to himself. The correspondent adds that the rumour may be absolutely groundlesss, but it exists, and he sends it for what it is worth. Another chapter in the Ardlamont mystery has been opened by information obtained by a Staines correspondent. Mhortly after tiie tragedy Mr. Jeriiiugham, a gentleman occupy- I y- ing rooms at Trafalgar House, Gresham-road, Staines, where Monsoli and Lieut. Hambrough also resided during their stay in the town ill the early part of the summer, received from Major Lamont, the owner of the Ardlamont estate, an application for the rent of the shoot- ings, it being at the time suggested that lie had made himself responsible, for the pay- ment. Mr. Jemingham at once replied that he knew nothing about the matter, and he heard nothing further till Wednesday, when he received a letter from a ttrni of solicitors at Edinburgh acting on behalf of Major Lamont. In their communication these gen- tlemen expressed surprise at the contents of Mr. Jerningham's letter, inasmuch as his name appeared in the lease of the shootings. They allied for a remittance of £ 450, and in timated that Mr. Jerningham would, in the course of a day or tjwro, be communicated with on the subject by their London agent, a solicitor named Pontife*. They also OK- plained that the lease was signed at Bisley Hull. Yorkshire, on the 9th of May last, and that a witness to Mr..Terningham's signature was his own footman. A letter from Mr. Poi' tifex was received by Mr. Jerningham on Thursday morning, and in this the demand for £ 450 was repeated, Mr. l'oiitifex adding that the lease Wits in his possession. In an interview with Mr Jerningham during the morning, the correspondent received permission to make it publicly known that that gentle- ruur has had nothing whatever to do with the iea.se of the shooting, and that if his name app.-ws in the document it is a case of per- sonation and 1ürgopry. Mrs. M onson left Tighnabruiach by the s.s. Lord of the Isles oil Friday, and proceeded to U)"tock. On arrival there, she despatched a bore of cartridges to Messrs. Hobson, gun- smiths, Kipoti. It in understood that she remained in Grwnoclc foi* the night with the object of having an interview with her lWIt- bwid in Greenock Prison on Saturday. A (rreenock correspondent telegraphs that Mr. Mon son's Edinburgh aerent had a long interview with his client on Saturday. Mrs. Mori son, afterwards visited her husband, add remained with him an hour. a.

In Memory of J. P." We uiHleraiaiul that the putehafiB of a. house In Canton, Cardiff, with the fund raised in memory of the late Mr. J. P. Jones was com- pleted on Saturday, and the premises vested in trustees on behalf of the widow and family, rhe amount realised was £900. Messrs. Jotham md Jennings, chairman and treasurer of the fund, attended at the completion of the deeds.

NO IMPROVEMENT. $ Two Fatal Cases at Newcastle. CONDITION OF HAMBURG. The official report issued on Saturday by the Local Government Board states that no deaths from cholera or choleraic diarrhoea have been reported from Hull, Grimsby, or Cleethorpes for the past three days. One of the fatal cases in Malton rural district is regarded as indis- tinguishable from true cholera. Two fatal cases at Newcastle are still doubtful. Newcastie Stricken. The Press Association Newcastle correspon- dent telegraphs that the medical investigation shows that the two deaths which occurred in the east end of the city last week were Asiatic cholera. Every precaution has been taken to prevent the spread of the outbreak. Another Death at Hull. A married woman named Chambers, living in one of the poorest localities in Hull, was seized with cholera on Sunday night, and has since died in the hospital. Her five children were also removed to the hospital, ostensibly for the purpose of receiving shelter, but it is freely stated that they, too, are suffering from the disease. Death from Choleraic Diarrhoea at Carmarthen. Daniel Davies, a groom, aged about 60 years, died at Carmarthen un Saturday evening under circumstances somewhat disturbing. The deceased was taken ill on Wednesday, and the symptoms of his illness seemed so much akin to those of cholera that it was believed that he died from that disease. The fact that his wife, a rather wea-kly woman, was affected much in the same way lent some colour to the belief. Dr. E. R. WiUiams, deputy medical officer of health, on being waited upon on Sunday afternoon, said that Davies died of extreme diarrhoea, accele- rated by disordered kidneys and bodily weak- ness. The deceased's wife, the medical officer said, was recovering. A Gravesend Victim. The Central News states that a seaman named Mudd, who was removed on Saturday afternoon from the steamship Ashbrook to the port sanitary floating hospital off Gravesend suffering from cholera, died on Saturday night. ABROAD. The following telegrams have been received through Reuter's Agency:- Sixty-two cholera cases and 27 deaths were reported at St. Petersburg on Saturday. During the past 24 hours three cases of cholera have occurred at Gameren, and two oases and one death at Hagestein. No fiesh cases of cholera at Berlin occurred on Saturday. Typhus, which has prevailed in the east of Berlin since the 21st of August, is assuming an epidemic character, there having been 129 serious cases during the last month. Hamburg in the Throes. A Central News telegram from Hamburg on Saturday night says:-The cholera appears to have once more assumed an epidemic form in Hamburg, and appears to be making very serious headway. Thirteen fresh cases and two deaths have occurred to-day, but the official report shows that the majority of the outbreaks have been in the suburbs. During the day four seamen on board the Swedish vessel Belize, two firemen on the British steamer Nellie, and four Polish workmen at Hamburg became ill under suspicious circumstances, and the port sanitary authorities had all the cases removed promptly to the cholera barracks at Altona. A Reuter's telegram from Hamburg on Sunday says :—Since yesterday morning seven fresh cases of cholera have occurred here, of which two terminated fatally, as have also seven other oases previously reported. Rumours of cholera cases aboard the steamer Augusta Victoria a.re declared by the owners' agents to be entirely unfounded. She will, however, remain 48 hours at Southampton under medical observation. A telegram from Bilbao says The Govern- ment Medical Board have proclaimed Bilbao an affected port, and, consequently, all vessels leav- ing here for any other port of Spain will be subjected to the special quarantine regulations.

TOMAHAWKED. i A Burglar Commits a Horrible Crime. A YOUNG LADY A VICTIM. A Dalziel's telegram from Sydney on Sunday says =—This morning an attempt was made to rob the Carcoar branch of the City Bank of Sydney. The manager, Mr. Phillies, resided on the bank premises, and at an early hour was aroused by noises of an unusual character. On going out to ascertain the cause of the disturbance he was confronted by a masked burglar, who struck him savagely about the head with a small hatchet or toma- hawk. Mr. Phillips fell dead on the floor, and a young lady visitor, named Miss Cavanagh, who ran to the spot on hearing the manager's cries for help, was also killed by the would-be robber. The manager's wife, who came to the assistance of her husband and friend, was terribly wounded with the tomahawk,, and now lies in a precarious condition. The daughter, who came to her "aid, had two of her fingers chopped off in attempting to wrest the hatchet from the hands of the murderer. After a fearful struggle with the girl the latter made his escape. He made his way to the Church of England vicarage, where he stole a horse from the stable, on which he made good his escape before an alarm could be raised. The police up to the present have had no clue as to the whereabouts of the desperado.

ADVANCE WALES. — 'v Welsh Doing the Big Thing at Chicago. WE HOLD THE WINNING CARD. It had been intended that the Hon. Anthony Howells, American Consul at Cardiff, should have presided during one of the Welsh days at Chicago, and special permission had been obtained for him from the Secretary of State to leave his post at Cardiff for the time necessary. Mr. Howells's ill-health, however, prevented him carrying out an intention he would have so gladly fulfilled, and he was reluctantly com- pelled to forego the pleasure of attending the great eisteddfod at Chicago. On Saturday Mr. Howells received the following letter from Mr. Apmadoc, the secretary, who did so much to make the eisteddfod a brilliant success I I It was a great disappointment to us to find you could not attend the eisteddfod, but the reason given is sufficient, though we are sorry it was so, trusting you are much better, or wholly recovered, by this time. The ladies' choir of Cardiff reached here on Monday evening before the eisteddfod, and we agree with you they showed 'pluck, will, and determination,' to ven- ture so far from home. We expected to findyou leading them into the city. Our conclusion was. not finding you there, that Secretary Gresham's cablegram had miscarried, but your letter settles that case. The two ladies' choirs at the eisteddfod sang exquisitely, but the Cardiff singers, on account of greater expression, won first prize. It was the finest contest in the eisteddfod, but we wish there had been more choirs to puzzle the people. Seven choirs appeared in the male con- test, and it was a magnificent fight-worth coming across the ocean to see, and no one would have enjoyed it more than your- self — the Rhondda Valley taking the prize on account of deeper expres- sion. The contest between the Rhondda and the North Wales choir was one of the prettiest that anyone would ever wish to wit- ness. Hwfa Mon was in his glory. The reception to Ben Davies, Mary Davies, and John Thomas was princely. The officials of the World's Fair give us credit for bringing into the fair the most interesting and successful exercises of anything that they have had. We have the winning card, and have received their special compliments. Colonel Page came to see me the first day he was in the city, and introduced himself through your letter, and very pleased we were to meet such an elegant gentleman. My son was in the office at the time, and the colonel was coached to the places he wanted to see, and very pleased he was to have a guide. To-day, again, he called to pay his respects and to bid me good-bye. I have sent with him my sincerest regards to the Consul family at Cardiff."

AFRAID TO SPLIT." The Barry Burglary Forms the Subject of a Magisterial Inquiry. At Penarth Police-court this morning (before Mr. O. H. Jones and Mr. John Duncan) John Keeffe, a boarding-house keeper, of 17,Homfray- street, Cardiff; — Griffin, and Mary Harries (a woman living at 4, Mary Ann-street, Cardiff); were brought up in custody charged—the two former with committing a burglary at the shop of the Model Clothing Company, kept by Mr. So Solomon, in Thompson-street, Barry Dock, on Thursday night, and the latter with receiving a portion of the proceeds of the robbery.—Prose- cutor (Mr. S. Solomon) said no one lived on the premises in Thompson-street. He left the place thorougly secure on Thursday evening, when he went home to Cardiff. On arriving at Barry Dock on Friday morning, however, he found the place had been forcibly broken into by means of a window in the back kitchen, the latch of which had been broken. On examina- tion of the shop goods he found about PM or £ 60 worth of goods had been stolen, including about fifteen or twenty suits of clothes, five sailors' bag's, and fifty or more silk handker- chiefs. The eight suits of clothes and other articles produced were his property.—Police- constable Arthur Williams, of the Cardiff Borough Constabulary, said he was on duty about 11.30 on Saturday morning in Bute- street, and in consequence of information re- ceived he went in company with Detective Rankin and Austin to No. 17, Homfray-street, where they found a large quantity of the stolen property in question. The house was occupied by the prisoner Keeffe, who was a boarding- master. Griffin was in the house at the time, wearing a trousers and vest, a part of the stolen goods. They, therefore, took both Keeffe and Griffin into custody. On being questioned, Keeffe said he knew something of the affair but he was afraid to split." Griffin maintained that he had never been to Barry in his life.-Police-const.able James Kassady, also of the Cardiff Borough Police Force, proved the arrest of the female prisoner on Saturday night as she was attempting to pledge a coat (part of the stolen property) at the shop of Mr. C. Follick, pawnbroker. On examining the house where she lived witness found a new vest and trousers concealed in a bag in the chimney.- Prisoners were remanded in custody for a week.

CARDIFF TRAMWAYS. Councillor Jenkins Has a Motion for the Next Council Meeting, At the next meeting of the Cardiff County- counoil Councillor John Jenkins will propose the following resolution That in the opinion of this council the time has arrived for the municipalisation of the tramways of the borough, and with a view thereto that a special committee be formed for the purpose of considering the subject and reporting to the council :— 1.

The powers (if any) possessed by the tramway company for extension of their lines within the borough. 4. The terms upon which the company are pre- pared to transfer their undertaking to the cor-I poration and 5. ^Failing an agreement between the coiyoration r I and the company, the terms upon which the corporation are entitled to compulsorily acquire the tramway undertaking.

BAD FOR THE SCOTCH CABBY. Takes Liberties with a Young Lady and Gets It Heavily. A London girl has had a peculiarly un- pleasant adventure in Edinburgh. The story Was made public in a case which came be- fore the local police-court on Saturday. Robert Skifving, a cabman, was charged with being drunk in charge of a horse and cab, also with molesting a girl of twelve, his fare. It appeared from the evidence that the girl arrived by boat from London at Leith about ten o'clock on Thursday night, and hired the cabman to drive her to a friend's house in the Lander-road, a fashionable locality on the south side of Edinburgh. Instead of doing so the cabman drove the girl about the town for two hours, on Several occasions getting down and going into the cab and putting his arms round her neck. Ultimately her cries drew attention. A policeman was called ahd the cabman arrested. The police drove the girl to her destination about one o'clock in the morning.—The cabman was fined L2 or twenty days for being drunk, and sent to gaol for 40 days for molesting the girl.

SERVANTS AND SMALL-POX. Quaint Advertisement in a Last Century Newsheet. Dr. LankestHr finds in old newspapers ad- vertisements which show that small-pox was so common that people advertised Tor ser- vants who were "over" :t, in much the same way as we now advertise for a 'dog "over" olvl distemper. He quotes the following — "Wanted, a man between twenty and thirty years of age, to be a footman and under- butler in a great family: he must be of the Church of England and have had the small- pox in the natural way. Also :t Woman, middle-aged, to wait upon a young lady of great fashion and fortune; the woman must be of the Church of England, have had the small-pox in the natural way. very sober, steady, and well-behaved, and understand dress, geting up bice and fiTle linen, and doing all things necessary for a young lady that goes into all public places and keeps the best com- pany.—Enquire of the printer of this paper.— Oct. 1st, 1774."

SPORT OF KINGS. The Defeat of the Triple Crown Hero. FUTURE EVENTS. NEWMARKET, SUNDAY. With the meeting of two such champions as Isinglass and La Fleche, it was no matter for wonder that, despite- the heavy sbowers of rain that fell during the night and early morning, a big crowd was seen on the New Barns on Saturday. The only disappointing feature was the numerical strength of the field in other respects the race was worthy of its best tradi- tions since its inception in 1888. Only three, Isinglass, La Fleche, and Raeburn, received any attention in the paddock, as Lady Caroline was generally accepted as being out of her class. The other three each came in for plenty of support, and in each case connections were very confident as to to the result of their candi- date. The 13 to 8 betted on Isinglass came to a slight fraction on just after the hoisting of the numbers. La Fleche came in for plenty of sup- port, whilst Raeburn, evidently benefited by his long rest, stripped in perfect condition, and from 7 to 1 was qciekly backed down to 9 to 2. The race itself can be described in a very few words. Lady Caroline dropped behind almost in the first few strides, and Loates went on at once to the front. Before reaching the distance he was seen to be at work on Mr. M'Calmont's colt. Holding his own with La Fleche he was, how- ever, rapidly overhauled by Raeburn, who, just opposite the principal enclosure, came out and won very cleverly by half a length. Of course, one can be wise after the event, and point to Mrs. Butterwick's victory and the fact that Raeburn was reported to be a stone better in his trial that the St. Simon filly. I pointed as much out during the week, in fact, but, on the other hand, I .remembered the defeats inflicted on Raeburn during the earlier part of the season, and felt justified in again pinning my faith on a colt that had hitherto done every- thing that had been asked of him. Even now I can hardly believe that the race is a true indi- cation of Isinglass's merits, for all public form speaks to the contrary. Indeed, we can almost feel assured that Mr. M'Calmont will now let his colt run in the Cambridgeshire, in which event he will have to concede Raeburn 31bs. more than on Saturday. Whether he will accomplish this task or not remains to be seen, but at any rate I should certainly be in favour of Isinglass were the pair to maet next month. Should Mr. M'Calmon decide not to run his colt for the Cambridgeshire there will be a chance for them to come together in the Champion Stakes in the second October Meeting. The surprise experienced by Raeburn's victory did not stand alone on the afternoon's programme, for in the opening event the down- fall of Aumbry was a, big blow to backers. Looking at her running behind St. Hilaire and Sempronius on the previous day, and again at her performance in the Prince of Wales's Nursery at Doncaster, it seemed a real good thing te support her to beat the moderate lot opposed to her. The Saturday Handicap looked very open, and it was there- fore not to be wondered at that the fielders bad much the best of it when Totley, starting at 100 to 8, won very easily. The vic- tory of Sydenham and Keymer gave backers a bit the best of it at the close, but taken all round the closing day was certainly far from being in their favour. With the Lancaster Plate disposed of we should now see some speculation on the Duke of York Stakes, which will be run on Saturday week. It would not surprise me were Llanthony pulled out for this race in preference to the Cambridge- shire. and with 8st 31b on his four year old back I have a great liking for the chances of Bates's candidate. Suspender's preparation has been hampered considerably by the hard state of the ground. The Smew is reported to be going very well, whilst Avington. who is not over- burdened with 7st., still keeps his position at the head of the quotations. For the present, taking a couple, I shall declare in favour of AVINGTON and LLANTHONY. The only move of importance in connection with the Cesarewitch market has been the shuffle with I'Anson's candidate, Newcourt having now been made a better favourite than Self Sacrifice. I mentioned only laat week the probability of eur hav- ing a puzzle to untangle in this quarter, and it looks as if such will be the case. The pair will not be tried previous to the race, and both will, I understand, run on their merits. I Prisoner still stands firmly at the head of the quotations, but there is a doubt as to who will ride- him. Brandy still finds supporters, although at the finish it may be that Molly Morgan will prove a dangerous candidate from this establishment. In- surance and Theobold are a couple of whose well doing I have received excellent accounts, whilst Hanover Jack, despite his little ebulli- tion 01 temper the other day, is going through his work in a very satisfactory manner. Judging- from the work he is doing, Prisoner has not yet commenced his preparation for the long event, whilst Pickering is confident that Lady Rosebery was not seen at her best at Doncaster: and since the announcement that Morny Cannon will ride her she has been introduced into the betting, although meeting Prisoner 011121b. worse terms hardly gives one much encouragement to fancy her chance. The principal events for the current week will be the Great Foal Stakes at Newmarket on Tuesday, which looks at the mercy of HAR- BINGER. For the great Eastern Railway Handicap OATLANDR has a chance, whilst ADORATION or ESMOND may account for the October Handicap on Thursday. nf ed The Press Association is officially informed that Isinglass has been strucktmt of all engage- ments for this year.

A WHITE ELEPHANT i ON HIS LAST LEGS. i 1

EBENEZER IN A TEMPER. The Teetotal Magistrate and the New- paners. TO THE HDITOB. SIR,-Another glaring illustration, if such were needed, is supplied us in the leading! article of your contemporary on Wednesday last, entitled Breakers Ahead," of how that paper is constantly found trimming from one side to the other, giving evidence of its disposi' tion to wobble with almost every issue, its policy, as usual, being to hold with the hare and run with the hounds." A good title fer this paper would be Mr. Facing-Both-Ways, that is, if you can apply the term of Mr." to a paper. During the last fortnight this has been the case about every other day, until, without: exaggeration, it has become a common practice and a common failing. This cannot be said of the Western Mail at any rate, for, with all its faults, it is honest and fair, speaking forth the words and voicing the feelings and principles in which it believes, and which it is anxious the people should share and espouse, The rubbish which is so often retailed in the columns of your contemporary has long since become the subject of remark, but I want more f especially to remark upon the attitude struck in the leader of Wednesday last, called Breakers Ahead." The editor, in this case, seems to ge considerably out of his way to assail, assault, and insult the Executive of the London Auxiliary of the United Kingdom Alliance in the prosecu- tion of the work it has set itself to accom- plish. I do not take this matter up because I happen to hold the posi- tion of district superintendent of the United Kingdom Alliance, much less have I been asked or told to reply to Breakers Ahead." I feel the meanness of any paper which can, and is constantly found, playing "fast and loose," "ducks and drakes" with great principles and subjects of the most solemn and vital importance, and it is because they condescend to stoop so low that I feel con- strained to criticise their action. Of course, as a paper and an editor, they have both the advantage of me and can have the last ward, nevertheless, I do not shirk or shrink frem call- ing attention to what I take to be their un- warrantable action. The terrible drink plague of this country is well known to be the greatest curse with which we have to contend, for by it we are brought to the verge of ruin. The curse is still rampant in our midst, and the plague well nigh as bad as ever, so much so that judges, recorders, magistrates, and others are constantly found uttering their warning voice against it. And because the United Kingdom Alliance seeks to stem the torrent of this evil and lessen the misery, crime, and vice occasioned thereby, your contemporary launches out upon them in language more strong and stern than choice and polite regarding the resolution they passed as a piece of impertinence, insolence, and those who passed it as "masterful spirits only fit to be thrust aside, and told to mind their own busi- ness. This sort of talk is very fine and nice, indeed, and it is high time for someone to call attention to and challenge the wisdom and good taste of it. Temperance people never got any help, or but very little and very rarely, from the South Wales Daily News, and they need not expect to. Still, that is no reason why they should be allowed to heap abuse upon us and the temperance cause, and we stand idly by looking' on, but not utter- ing a word of protest or remonstrance. I am bold to dispute the premises laid down by your contemporary when it says, speaking of Mr. Gladstone's recent letter on the liquor traffic question, that it waB a sufficiently re-assuring letter to encourage all true and rational pro- Gladstone's recent letter on the liquor traffic question, that it was a sufficiently re-assuring letter to encourage all true and rational pro- moters of national temperance and sobriety," &c. It was not sufficient, especially in the face of the Newcastle programme and the promises made in relation to this class of legislation. Whether it be acknowledged openly or not, nevertheless the temperance- party is the back- bone of the Liberal Government, and it ill be- comes any Liberal organ to fling in the face of the temperance party the offensive words, Tell these masterful spirits to assert their own views." Tall talk this but let the Liberal paper of Cardiff, and the Liberal press of this country, as well as the Liberal party every- where, know that, make light of it or not, the Liberal party will have to reckon with the tem- perance party yet. And. more, they will have to listen to their cry and yield to their demands. It is only fer the temperance party to do as Herbert Gladstone advised them some few years ago to do, viz., "To make their voices heard above the rest," and when they do this—and they can do it whenever they unitedly determine— then they will be listened to in spite of the advice, the taunts, and the jeers of the South Wales Daily News. Lord Randolph Churchill calls the drink traffic a devilish and destructive trade." Hence, from a Tory point of view, tke sooner it is got rid of the better. It is true, in a sense, that the Liberals defeated the "Com- pensation Clauses" in the Local Government Bill during a Conservative Government, but it is equally true to say that the combined efforts of the temperance party of this country were instru- mental in bringing about this happy result. What we want is fair-play and no favour." We ask no more. We will agitate until we take no less, and, whether the South IFalds Daily Neits be for us or against us, we go on regardless of the Wobbling spirit they evince and the offensive terms in which they speak of and treat the temperance party.—I lttn; &c., Clevedon, Sept. 21.

VALKYRIE. Lord Dunraven's Trip Across the Herring Pond. A Dalziel's telegram from New York on Saturday says:-Lord Dunraven upon his arrival here to-day was interviewed by a Dalziel representative with regard to the prospects of the Valkyrie in the contest for the America Cup. He said, "I trust the Valkyrie is in good condition. I am certain she has not been seriously injured by the stormy trip across the Atlantic. She is too staunch for that." Lord Dunraven went on to say, The Valkyrie has just as good a chance to win as the Vigilant. The Vigilant is a very fast boat, but so is the Valkyrie. I think what the captain of the Spain said is true. He saw the Valkyrie make 70 knots in seven hours under a jury rig in a heavy sea-way. She has made much faster time than that in her racing, but I must decline to tell you just how fast she has gone. There is not much difference between her speed and that of the Britannia. The Valkyrie is superior in windward work, though she is good in light airs, and fast in a gale. She is only fair in moderate wind. She is an excellent sea boat. I cannot give an opinion on the relative merits of the Vigilant and the Valkyrie, because I have never seen the Vigilant, although I would like very much to witness her performance. The Navahoe is a good boat, the best you had on this side, when she was turned out. The Vigilant and Colonia are. of course, improve- ments on her."—With regard to his tour through America, Lord Dunraven said, "I do not expect to make any hunting trips through Canada, I shall not have time." Visit to the Vigilant. The Earl of Dunraven (says a Dalziel's tele- gram) paid a visit to the cup defender. Vigilant, on Sunday, and expressed the opinion that she looked like a very fast boat, and likely to give the Valkyrie all she could do to beat her.

CAMPERDOWN. Destroyer of the Victoria Ashore at Malta. POSITION MOST DANGEROUS A Central News telegram, dated Malta, Monday, says Her Majesty's ship Camperdown, while on her first trial trip after repairing the damage she sustained in her disastrous collision with the Victoria, went aground at the mouth of the harbour here this morning. She lies in a dan- gerous position. The dockyard tugs Sampson and Hellespont are rendering assistance in order to tow her off. Cause of the Accident. A Reuter's telegram from Malta says the accident was due to the breakdown of the C&mperdown'R steering gear. The spot where the ironclad has grounded is not regarded as dangerous, and it is expected the vessel will be easily re-floated. The Official Message. The Central News states that the Admiralty have not yet received any information with refe- rence to the Camperdown from the admiral in charge at Malta. They, however, have received a message from a private source confirming the stranding of the Camperdown and giving her exact position. From this message they state it is unlikely that the vessel is in a very dan- gerous position. They believe that had her position been serious they would have had news from official sources before. Floated. A Lloyd's, telegram from from Malta, states that the British ironclad Camperdown is afloat. The Camperdown, which forms one of our Medi terranean squadron, is a steel barbette vessel of 10,600 tons displacement. and was constructed at Ports- mouth in 1885. She is 330ft. in length, has a be:1m measurement of 68'5ft. and draws 27'8ft. of water. Her indicated horse-power is 11,500, with a speed of 17" 1 knots an hour. The vessel's arUlalllent consists of four 67-ton guns, six breechloaders, nineteen quick- firing and seven machine guns. Later Details. A telegram from Malta, in the second edition of the Times, says :—Aa the Camperdown war leaving the harbour at 9.15 a.m. her helm be came jammed, the ship ported, and she stranded opposite the Barracca entrance to the harbour. Her bows are fast aground on a rocky bottom in 25ft. of water. Her bows rose 2Jft., and they are 20ft. from shore. The ship is not leaking, and the sea is calm, with light southerly breeze. The Admiralty tugs are assisting.

DYNAMITE USED. Five Non-Unionist Seamen Killed si 'Frisco. A Central News telegram from San Francisco on Sunday says :—A terrible dynamite outrage, supposed to be the work of Trades Union sea- men, was perpetrated here this evening. A bomb was exploded against a boarding-house in which non-Unionist sailors lodged,^ with the result that the building was wrecked and of its occupants killed on the spot. Four other men sustained such frightful injuries that three of them died shortly afterwards, and the fourth man now lies in a critical condition. Three prominent members of the Seamen's Union have been arrested on suspicion of being concerned in the crime, and the police are searching for others.

THE BATH MYSTERY. Police are Put in Possession of Impor- tant Clues.

THE RECENT STRIKE. Rocking Stone Committee Again in Conference at Cardiff.
