IUnderseliing Question-
I Underseliing Question- OPINIONS ON MR. D. A. THOMAS'S SCHEME. COMMERCIAL MEN AT CARDIFF DOCKS. -+ Mr. J. B. Ferrier, on being asked by one of our representatives to express his views on the scheme of Mr. D. A. Thomas, M.P., to prevent underselling in the coal trade, said, speaking broadly, he was in favour of Mr. D. A. Thomas's scheme. It might require concentration of mind and re-model- ling, but the principle was sound. After all, Mr. Thomas only sought to keep in curtail- ment a matter of 10 per cent, of the output, and that was not much for anybody to keep in check in order to benefit the general run of the trade. The competition that took place was absolutely among themselves, and it seemed to him to be great folly that they should be running counter to each other, when (I, little understanding without combination might give them the benefit, and not only save them from loss, but enable them to make a profit. The trade, as a whole, would deal with the scheme as it deserved to be dealt with, and he was quite sure good would result from it. In point of fact, there was now something similar in existence in the steel plate trade, and the iron companies were acting on the same principle. They had had about twelve months' experience of the arrangement, and, so far as-'he had heard, the scheme was working admirably. What was practicable in the one trade was certainly practicable in the coal trade, where the com- petition was greater. All it wanted was simply a little centralisation Vn manage- ment. Mr. J. Andrews, another gentleman to whose opinion great weight is attached, said "1 am inclined to think that the scheme can, with goodwill and determination on the part of coalowners, be made at all events, the basis of an arrangement that would be beneficial to themselves and to the workpeople, without unduly injuring the general con- sumer. I am inclined to agree with Mr. Thomas that the low prices from which we have been suffering are very much more due to competition among ourselves than to anv competition from North Country or foreign producers. If this is the case, and the adoption of the scheme and consequent increase in the selling price of coal need not necessarily materially reduce the quantity of coal shipped from South Wales, I think it is self-evident that a, real effort should be made to give the scheme a trial. It cannot be denied that the matter is surrounded with very serious difficulties, and that, unless coal- owners are prepaied to put confidence in each other and to act in good faith, it will very probably turn out that nothing can be done. One of the greatest difficulties of a prac- tical kind will, of course, be the settling of the outputs of the different collieries, with the view of arriving at the percentage which each would be entitled under the scheme to contribute. Collieries which have been pre- paring, possibly at very heavy cost, to mate- rially increase their outputs in the immediate future, will naturally wish to have that taken into consideration, and would be slow to accept the actual output of the past as the basis on which they were to stand. But, after all, this is only a matter of detail, and it ought not to be impossible t% arrange for such a committee to deal with this matter as wou-d command the confidence of everybody and ensure fair treatment all round. What- ever may be the issue of Mr. Thomas's en- deavour to get the coalowners of South Wales into a combination for their own benefit, there can be no doubt that, by means of his pamphlet and the mass of valuable information which by great trouble and expense he has brought together, he has laid the whole of the trade Under a very great obligation." The "Financial Xews" says:—There is no difficulty in deciding where Mr. Thomas's proposed limitation of sale had its origin, nor does he pretend that it is original in any other sense than its adaptation to the peculiar and well-nigh unique circumstances of South Wales. His mind has been stirred, somewhat suddenly, to all appearances, by the efforts of the Westphalian coalowners to raise prices and maintain them, whereby the Westphalian Syndicate has had the gratifi- cation of seeing a number cf coal properties transformed from losing into good-dividend paying concerns. But the parallel ne endea- vours to establish between the circumstances of the South Wales sea-borne steam coal trade and a group of collieries in Westphalia betrays a singular distortion of vision on the part of a Welsh coalowner who s 'lsn member of Parliament. His conclusion that coal prices in Westphalia have and tuive, so far, been kept up mav bf» j Does he, however, really believe that* r returns th0 German colilries^ppe,? „ "ff TOldrng « sofely due to the eifftS,™ I influence of the syndicate or rn^i t- influence of the syndicate 01' coal trust. a.s It would be ca.lIed in the Pennsy lv¡mia, co'a,l valleys? Does he aduaJlv know uothinrr f protective dutiw at °t £ JNorth German ports, 0f reductions of freights on the Gennar 'raH ways to benefit the Westphalian coal pro "ie efforts now being made to in- a- &E 'ft "XT «med further afield, in onJ„ tn British competition? It would be rash, perhaps, to say that it is impossible to hit upon a remedy for the undercutting prac- tices We sh coalowners complain of in mem- bers of their own body, though, when one lemembers how almost every colliery differs trom its neighbour, and how the output of one pjt is raised at half the cost of another working the same seam, thlre would not be too much dogmatism in hazarding the remark. can be no ratlin ess, however, in sug- gestmg that, whatever the "practical scheme" to be invented by the coalowners' committee, "«, ♦ /ounded upon the colliers' suggested terms for an alliance," or on Mr. David Thomas's curious mixture, "made in brermany,' with -an infusion from the antique North thrown in. 1 REGULATION OF THE OUTPUT. To the Editor of the "Western Maii" fiir, 1 he tone ot your correspondent "Coal's" letter shows clearly that what he objects to is not so much Mr. D. A. Thomas's scheme of com- bination, but that his hostility i" a personal one directed against the writer Slim self. "Coal" en- not have taken the troiifble to read Mr. Thomas's pamphlet, for. simple as the scheme ig, fie clearly does not understand it. He speaks of it as a scheme for restricting the output. The scheme only proposes to regulate the output and not to restrict it. Provided the price is a pay- ing one development, and increased outnut can go on freely. "Coal" says that the scheme is simply a. repetition of schemes that have been over and o^er again tried, a.nd failed. Will he give us a few of those cases, that we may judge ior ourselves? Mr. Thomas's book, which [ have received this afternoon, gives a number of ease, where it has bee-, tried and succeeded. The imitation of the vend, in onerstion for TO \rarn'l!' tlle ^ort>h of Ens-land, and into which Thomas goes very fully, had much in com in n w "lH plan. The exceedingly interest- tKo TTel}lor,a,ndum on the anthracite coal trust in mi n 'tates of America with which Mr. basi • 8f ^.?nclu(les his appendices, shows that the >5 ot that arrangement, under which prices advanced 6s. per ton, is very similar. A urn arrangement, again, occurs in the Aus- tralIan coal trade and to mv own knowledge a 8fn+lf1' arran?G,uent exists in a number of trades jj he nresent time. I am not concerned to defend Mr. Thomas, but the suggestion of vour correspondent that he should allow contracts toO be passed by on the chance of his scheme bei ng accepted is a little too ridiculous to paes muster, t he fact that contracts are being taken at low figures by the leading collieries at the present time one would have thought constituted a verv strong argument in favour of combination T COLLIERY AGENT.

RIPE STIUWRETHIUES IN NOVEMBER. Ripe strawberries in November on the rrla.net in the open seem somewhat of an anomaly, and we have, therefore, mudi pleasure in acknow- ledging from Mr. Muir, of Mairgam, a little box of "ripe strawberries, green strawberries, and strawberry blossom from the open-air garden of Mr. William Young, Aberavon."

The Liberal Party
The Liberal Party SPEECH BY MR. J MORLEY. A CHARY REFERENCE TO LORD ROSEBERY. On Friday night a great Liberal demonstra- tion v as held in the St. Andrew's-hall, Glasgow, the chief speaker being the Right Hon. John Morley, M.P. The meeting was under the auspices of the Glasgow Liberal Council, and Mr. Thomas Mason presided. Mr. John Morley, who was received with ^reat enthusiasm, having briefly referred to the political events of the last two years, went on to say he was certainly not at that time of the day going to explain the general election, 'iuey had a general election, theu they iiati a sessaon of l:'ariU11ltellt, and ill thai session he ventured to think that, though they were cailied a fagged reguiient, being led tlirouyh Coventry, as had been said, by all irishman upon SOllHj otiK'i occasion, they w:_re in a. majority all through last session, except for numbers, and, thcie.ioi'e, he thought, though they were not, as the poet said, "Standing on the top of golden hours," there was no reason why tney shouid despair or why they should be discouraged. (Cheers.) 'the chair- man had referred to the retirement ot Lord Rosebery. It was a good ruie in politics—it was not his phrase—to take every- thing seriously, but nothing tragically. It would not be becoming in h.m to examine or to criticise the reasons which Lord Rosebery had given for taking so serious a step at the particular juncture, but he hoped that he would g:ve offence to no one if he failed to discover beLween his noble friend's views aud those of the great majority of their party on the Arme- nian question so weÜ marked and so extensive a divergence as would compel such a severance as this, and if it were not absolutely coin- pelned, t'uch a step seemed hard to understand. As for the internal difficulties to which refe- rence had been made, difficulties arose in all Governments and in all parties in the arduous conduct of public business, and he would only say that they were like passing disagreements between man and wife, which a wise and judicious public, not possessed of the actual knowlege of all the facts, would be very chary of pronouncing a judgment upom. (Laughter and cheers.) The party owed much to Lord Rosebery for his great services, extending over many years. They had what the cynics called thesincerest form of gratitude, namely, the Lope of some service still to come—(cheers)—and, at any rate, they felt, to use an exclamation of Charles Fox's, "'We know and feel there ie no loss of friends." (Cheers.) He would not enter rnat night upon the question of the leadership, yd the question of the greatest importance was who managed the business of the party i11 the House of Commons, which was the centre of disCtwsion, and which in their party was the only possible centre of Parliamentary govern- nHmr. (Cheers.) Nobody was so senseless as to suggest any change in that quarter. The vigour, the resource, the indefatigable spirit, which some even called audacity, of Sir Win. Harcourt extorted universal admiration during the last session—(cheers)—and he could assure them that there were occasions not a few when on the other side of the House there was not a very sincere regret that party etiquette forbade them to lend Sir William Harcourt for the day- (laughter)—and he, somehow or other, could not manage to lead both sides of the House at once. (Laughter.) There was an idea of relentless competition raging on the Liberal Front Bench, and particularly, by the way. amongst the Scot- tish in embers—(laughter)—but precisely the same idea was circulated last summer as to the Bench opposite them and they were told of that Bench that there were three or four eminent men all lying in dark ambush, waiting till a moment should come when they should cut the throats of one another. (Laughter.) Did any man of sense believe in that ignoble rubbish? And if they took his advice they would not let any they took his advice they would not let any ignoble rubbish lodge in their minds about the Liberal party. He left that question by making the blunt remark, viz., instead of spending their time on talking as to who was to be the leader of the Liberal party, they should do the best they could to see that the Liberal party was worth leading. (Cheers.) The only safe rule for politicians, on whatever Bench they sat, or whether they had got any Bench to sit upon or not—(laughter)—was what was a. long time ago described by a shrewd man as "Do and say what is the best on your behalf; accept what is the right thing to do and say, and treat place and power as accidents, and let thean take the consequences." (Cheers.) That was the rule their Liberal forefathers acted up to twenty or 30 years ago, but then there were despondent souls who thought that the sun of Liberalism had not only set, but that it had vanished altogether from its orbit and would never return. Now, did anybody believe that a Government which began its career with two Bills like the Rating Bill and the Education Bill, so reactionary, gio saturated with the spirit, of cl°>s, and of ihe ascendency of sect, would rule England for ever—(cheers) ■—or Groat Britain? (Loud cheers and laugh- ter,) The present GOvernment hfld contraeteJ all aJliancc with the Church of England. A historic person of his acquaintance assured him that from the days of King Charles 1. there had been no active political alliance between the Church of Englancl and a political party but that that party had been rained when it attempted to pay the price for that alliance. (Cheers.) Yet he did not desire their oppo- nents to pay the price that King Charles T. paid1—(laughter)—but the price they would have to pay. (Cheore.) They were not to suppose that because the Liberals were in a minority they ooulddo nothing. They could not get all they wanted, but by vigilant watching, by criticising, and by encouraging the better current and checking the worse current, they would make what was pretty good rather better, and then they would be travelling no inconsiderable distance along th'3 road which they wished to go. That was the work they had to face. More important work had to be done outside the House of Commons. The Lilnral party was going to live, and not going to die. (Cheeks.) 1 hCT were to persevere and not to be clis- couraged by i;l,o less of one election, and they were to be satisfied if they advanced the, ship of humanity one further yard. A correspon- dence had been going on on the sn bject of Ireland, and the point of it was. if they threw their Irish friends overboard, they would come to a more comfortable port. It wras further said that the moment wa.s opportune for the Liberal party re-considering its attitude on the Home Bule question, and that the Irish members ought to be told that Home Rule was adiourned indefinitely unless there was unity in the Irish party. There was one thing, at any rate, on which the Irish party were agreed, and on which the majority of the Irish voters were agreed, and that' was they were in favour of some form of self-government. (Cheers.) There was no quarrelling about that. Then, if the Irish members and Irishmen elsewhere tlum in the House of Commons struck them sometimes as beinsr unreasonable and impracticable in their ideas, they should remember that it was their system of government which had made Irish- men whrvfc they were. (Cheers.) He was there that night to say that the demand far Home Rule arose Íl'0I;1 tho necessity of the case. (Cheers.) They could not breed in Irishmen a sense of political responsibility unless thev gave them what was the correlative of responsi bilitv, which was power. And. more, they would not touch, move, or pacifv that national sentimsit. which they in Scotland respected, except they sent a great current, of liealthv national and politica,! life through Ireland, and they could only do that by extending to Ireland the same principles of self-government which had made the people of these islands in its three national departments and Colonies sound mem- bers of a great Empire. (Cheers.) All the promises of his Liberal Unionist friends, he hoped, were not mere hypocritical subterfuges to avoid Home Rule.. He would like to see their alternative noliov in operation, and he would like to see how it. was taken by ihe Irish members and by those who sent the Irish mem- bers to the House of Commons. While thev were sitting there discussing great public, ques- tions freely, the curse of Ireland, the secret rural sociptips, &c.. remainpd, and was now working, and its baneful sources of demoralisa- tion were more and more active. Thev were not to forget that they were acquiescing in a continuance of a state of things, though easy and confortable to them, which was extending oocinl demoralisation in Ireland, and which if it was not dealt bv them, would assuredly have to 1.16 dealt with by their successors. (Cheers.) A Royal Commission had just made a tremendons admission. They said if Ireland were treated according to her fair taxable capacity in relation to Great Britain she ought to pay not what she now paid (one-twelfthh but that she ought to pay one-twentieth. That, was to say that she paid between two and a half million pounds per annum more than, according to her relative tax- able capacity, Flhe ongoht to pay. But the answer they got was, "Ah! but you give a great deal back to Ireland for the large expenditure." That was an admission which would raise a good many questions before thev were many months older. Dealing with the Armenian question, he said he was amused at the manner in which the Under-Secretary for Foreign Affairs had re- ferred to the subiect. He said that their feeling with regard to the massacres at Constantinople might be compared to a man who looked out from his window and saw a volume of smoke and ran to the fire station and gave the alarm, so that the con- flagrathn woulù noh "pread to h111 own home. That was very smooth and very picturesque, but, so far as he had observed history/ the smooth and the picturesque were generally false and misleading. The Under Secretary's description did not represent his feeling at all. (Cheers.) The feeling was deeper. It was more than a difference,,of creeds and faith—it was humanity. (Cheers.) He would not deal I' with the Cyprus Convention—they would hear of that in the House of Commons. (Cheers.) There were other sources of national duty besides treaties, as binding as the most sacred parchments as were ever eealec^ In alliance -?- with France, they had a bloody war with Russia I 40 years ago, and twenty years ago they went very near tlireatening Russia with war if she attempted to do—what? The very thing which they were now, cap in hand and almost on their knees, going to Russia to beg her to do. (Hear, hear.) Whatever might be the right or wrong of the Cyprus Convention, he said that that deliberate closing of their eyes to the blighting misoliief3 and miseries of the crumbling Turkish Empire—that holding back of the hands of Russia., right or wrong—imposed upon them a duty and obligation of the most direct pos- 'I sible kind, and which, in the form of their international conscience, do what they would, they could not di\ :.st themselves of. He noticed that Britain the one day gloried in splendid isolation and the next meekly pleaded for European concert. Public opinion had been given on the Armenian question, and he was never afraid of public opinion. Mr. Gladstone at Liverpool had said that duty neither required nor permitted that they, for the sake of even the great object they had in view, should place themselves in a condition of war, nor should they take measures which should plunge Europe generally into a state of war. As to that, he did not believe that there was any difference Another course was separate coercive action with Lrithh guns, .ships, and men at Con- stantinople- lie could quite understand that the old Adam in them would be gratified if the old Adam in them would be gratified if that were possible, but they were told by the Chancellor of the Exchequer on Cabinet re- sponsibility that if they were to do that they would be met, not by one Power, but by two Powers at Constantinople. If the Govern- ment declared that war. so. he was afraid they must put back the Old Adam to his case, and try to see what else could be done. (Laughter.) Thev were w'thin three days of a declaration by the Prime Minister upon this subject. But Mr. Morley hoped his lordship would have better ground to stand upon for his hopeful- ness than lie had a year ago. (Hear, hear.) He was persuaded that until compulsion was applied they need hold no further meetings, and they might shut up the Turkish Reform Department of the British Foreign Office. He was one of those who believed that they were on the eve of a tremendous battle. He was never in a hurry to believe in the Millennium, and he was equally slow to believe that the battle1 of Armageddon was at hand. (■.iear,^hear.) The time was coming when a wise Foreign Minister would take steps for C'oming, to a good understanding with France upon the subject of Egypt. Such an under- standing was not impossible, and the effect of it would be that they would go into the councils of Europe with olean hands, and the qffedt io>f, such a cleaning of their hands would be to give them additional moral weight in these council He was not one of those who said they should disarm themselves. Great Britain had enormous strength; she had vast resources and unconquerable courage, therefore, he urged, let them rely upon those things, for they were strong enough not to be afraid, and they were nob afraid. (Cheers.) If they did not succeed in inducing the Powers along with themselves, or along with France and Russia, to put pressure upon the Porte to put an end to those crimes and prevent mis- chief being oarried to the paint of extermina- .t on, then he said tine Great Powers would stand disgraced., and Great Britain baffied, baulked, and frustrated, would drink a more bitter cup of humiliation than had ever crossed her bp*- When he said that the Dongola expedition was gratuitous, wanton, and in- fatuated he was astonished at his moderation. He submitted that their continued occupation of Egvpt would be a source of military weak- ness if Britain were ever In conflict with Euro- pean Powers. Lord Beresford was a brave sailor, but rather a quarter-deck kind of politician, and he said with marine sim- plicity and marine frankness now they were going to stop in Egypt for good, and that Egypt was for them. They liked their quarter-deck friends, but they must remember that utterances of that kind from a man in Lord Beresford's official position attracted attention abroad. official position attracted attention abroad. Now was the moment for diplomacy, and if it were not carried out our children would have to pay the account, but he hoped the Liberal party, which was not going to die, would take good care to do the best that it cculd with all the lights at its command to improve the condi- tions of our people, to satisfy those aims and aspirations to which he had referred earlier on, where so many grave issues were at stake, when so many questions were burning, where the risks were so momentous, and that they would remember that there had been great statesmen in this land—Lord Aberdeen, their country- man Sir Robert Peel, and now Mr. Gladstone —who advocated a policy of right-doing, and that was the policy, cost what it would, which the Liberal party would be wise to embrace. (Loud cheers.)
BRITISH SOUTHTFRICA COMPANY.
BRITISH SOUTHTFRICA COMPANY. A MILLION MORE SHARES ISSUED NOISY PROCEEDINGS. An extraordinary meeting of the British South Africa Company was heid in London on Friday to consider a resolution authorising the directors to increase the capital to £ 3,500.0u0 by tli& crea- tion of 1,000,000 new £1 shares. The Duke of Abercorn, who presided, said that by the unex- pected native rebellion in Rhodes\a rInd the out- break of rinderpest exceptionally heavy expenses had been thrown upon the company. The £ 500,000 cash in hand last February* and the £ 1,250,000 debenture moneys raised in Julylast were exhausted. According to estimates by Lord Grey, the company's admirÔstraator m Rhodesia, the increased capital proposed would meet whatever further exceptional outlay was necessary, and carry them on to the end of September, 1897. They proposed to allot the 500,000 shares now issued at 22 among the share- holders pro raita, but they had thought it right to ensure the success of the issue by making underwriting arrangements respecting 300,000 of the shares. Further, the underwriters re- mained liable for the whole of the 300,000 until 200,000 had been taken by t.he shareholder.

He jnoved that the capital be increased by the :treation cf 1,000,000 new £ 1 -The Duke of Fife seconded the motion.—Mr. De Pass said he considered that in underwriting the shares the directors had adopted a course detrimental to the company's interests. (Cheers. )—The Soli- citor to the company said this matter ought to be discussed on the next resolution.—The motion was then carried unanimously.—The Chairman then proposed, and Sir Horace Far- quhar seconded, :L motion that the underwriting arrangements referred to be approved.—Mr. De Pass again objected to the underwriting arrangements, amid great noise. The proceed- ings then became uproarious, someone shouting for the. names of the underwriters.—Ultimately the resolution was defeated by a large majority. —The Chairman then observed that he relied upon the shareholders to take up the shares offered.
BISMARCK AND HIS STATE SECRETS.
BISMARCK AND HIS STATE SECRETS. THE OBJ i'Xlil GPTHE PRINCES REVELATIONS. HIS HATRED TC^ARDS ENGLAND. The Berlin correspondent of the "Stan- dard,' telegraphing on Thursday, says; — The Czar has ordered that all the documents Connected with the Russo-German secret Con- vention, which are unknown to him, and are either in the Russian State archives or in are either in the Russian State archives or in the possession of the family of Count Shuva- loff, the Russian Ambassador in Berlin in laaO shall be laid before him immediately in order that he may study the whole sub- ject. I also hear that the German Emperor contiiiA's to be highly indignant at the recent wisclosures, and that Count Herbert Bismarck, who arrived here to-day in order to confer with his brother. Count William, is equally annoyed by them, and especially by the fact that some of the papers accuse him of complicity. The "Daily Telegraph" Berlin correspon- dent says;.—The publication of the revela- tions in question, was a deliberate and care- fully-prepared stroke of policy on the part of Prince Bismarck, who himself admits it, to counteract the efforts that he believes are being made to bring about a very close and intimate understanding between Germany and England at the expense of the possibility of a similar state of affairs with Russia. His object is to force German policy away from England into the arms of Russia, by what his tools who are assisting him call "a, brutal but carefully-delivered stroke." "If," savs Prince Bismarck, in effect, "if it had not been for the Anglophile colour applied to German policy immediately aft-er my dismissal, Russia, would never have come to an understanding with France on the firm basis that supports the alliance practi- cally now existing between that country and France." Prince Bismarck is. in reality, now more than he ever was a, dire foe to England. He shows it wheiwer he can, and there seems to be a prospect of another press campaign against exalted personages of Eng- lish blood. It is also stated by an indi- vidual having personal intercourse with the Prince, that the Czar has already given him to understand that he distinctly approves oi the course he took as regards the publication of the recent revelations. Prince Bismarck states positively that both Count Kalnoky md Signor Grispi were not only cognisant of the understanding in question with Russia, but, further than this, they made no protest whatever against it, and he backs up this insertion by adding that, should it be denied, tie is prepared to adduoe evidence in his possession to prove his statement.
SANTA CLAUS
SANTA CLAUS ? AN APPEAL TO THE SYM- PATHETJ<5 PUBLIC. Another week has flown by, and "Santr. Claus" finds a nice little sum of over L60 standing to her credit, or nearly double the total recorded a week ago. Some very gene- rous donations have come in, and to all kind contributors, whether of much or little. Miss Lascelles Carr tenders her grateful thanks. It will be seen that much remains to be done, for this time last year £ 115 had gone into "Santa's" coffers, so thai this year we are seme £ 50 behind wha; we were in 1895. There is, therefore, great need of active and vigorous offers, and "Santa Claus" would urge on her friends and sympathisers everywhere to come forward and do it NOW. Let us see if by this time next week we cannot dimmish the discrepancy between '96 and '95! If all put their shoulder to the wheel, how easy it would be! Just think for a JHoment, reader. You would not miss a shilling very much, would you? Well, if during the next week one thousand ''Evening Express" readers were to forward only one shilling tiach, that would be no less than £ 50— £ 50 nearer tha goal, the attainment of which is so earnestly desired by each and all of us. Below we give the list of prizes offered to our oolleotors; likewise our principal helpers, divided into three battalions, viz., the collectors with books, the collectors with boxes, and the kind friends who are aiding us with money in vary- ing sums.

THE BRATT DIVORCE CASE.I
THE BRATT DIVORCE CASE. The hearing of the Bratt divorce suit was resuiiT-d on Friday morning, when Mrs. Bratt, the respondent, agam went into the witness- box, and was questioned by Mr. Gi'l. 00,• of the counsel for the husband. Mrs. Brat*: said that one of the gentlemen whom she met when she dressed and went out again 011 certain nigiht was a Mr. Leverson. ller hus- band had an objection to Mr. Leverson, and on one occasion had struck him. Leverson did not lend her money- He might have borrowed JB800 for her. Counsel produced a letter, in which the writer commenced "My dearest," and went on to say "he did not wish the addressee to be under any obliga- tion to him," and ended with the words, "1 know you will pav me back. If you cannot. I shall never ask yout again." Asked whether she recollected this -letter, Mrs. Bratt did not answer. Questioned as to whether she recollected her husband kicking ¡ the writer out of the house, she said she was not in the room. Witness, continuing, said she. paid a money-lender, from whom the money I was procured, f200. She raised :£2SG on jewellery, and also money on plate. Counsel produced a second letter, and witness said she received it from a gentleman, who travelled by the same hoat from Dublin. The writer addressed witness as Dearest Gracic," and iisked her if the remembered the armchair, and reminded her to be careful.—Mr. Carl Cole, a reminded her to be careful.—Mr. Carl Cole, a musical agent, called for the respondent, de- scribed a. remarkable scene, when Mr. Bratt came into 1h; room, broke up i card party, inii threatened to strike Mrs. Brati with a stick, ending by carrying her out. of the room.—Mr. Wiliani Henry Sinclair, a company secretary, said he had heard Mr. Bratt call his wife a "dirty cow" amd a "bitch."—Mrs. Oldham, mother of the respondent, said she had seen the petitioner box the respondent's ears.—Mrs. Bratt, re-called, said she had certainly never been guilty of any impropriety with Mr. Lever- ?am -c.Ti.—Mr. William Thomas, Lovell, an :totor. awore that he had never misconducted himself with Mrs. Bratt or been in her bedroom.—Mr. Kenneth Macdonald said he visited the respon- dent, but ^jsolutelv nothing improper occurred. He nevir had the curiosity to ask wlmther she was married or not. He saw children at the flat, but did not then form any opinion tas to Mrs. Brad's position.-The case was again ad- i .io-mrned, i V
America's PresidentI
America's President UNDOUBTED RETURN OF MR. M'KINLEY. Although there is a question as to the measure of his majority, there is no doubt that Air. M'Kinley has been elected President of tee United States by a substantial figure. The differences of opinion as to the actual figures cannot be definitely settled until the actual returns are officially issued. Most I authorities still award Mr. M'Kinley 277 votss, although Senator Jones, after a con- ference with the Bryanite managers, has issued a statement upon the contest, and also a bulletin, in which he claims that the final official returns will show that Mr. Bryan has secured 190 votes. The latter has sent a message of congratulation to Mr. M'Kinley, and Mr. M'Kinley has issued a manifesto, in which he says the victory is not of a party or a section, but of, and for, the Avhole American people, and that not the least of the triumphs of the election has been the obliteration of sectional lines in the Re- public. A Dalziel's telegram from New York states: —The "Herald" says it can state with autho- rity that there is no disposition on the part of the Republican leaders to increase the present tariif except in so far as is necessary for revenue purposes. Mr. M'Kinley himself has considerably modified his views on this pomt. and, while still obliging to ihe doctrine I of Protection, is not now an extremist, especially as he finds tlxe party leaders opposed I to extreme measures. The Democratic leaders are busily occupied in. planning a re-organisa- tion of the party. The leaders in New York intend to work on a broad and liberal basis, so that all DAnocrats can unite against Republican organisation in the State. They will spend two years in restoring order in the party ranks, and will then try to capture the Legislature and elect a governor. ONE HUNDRED AND NINETY CLAIMED FOR BRYAN. The Central News Agency, telegraphing from New York on Friday morning, says: Senator Jones, after a conference with the Bryanite managers, has issued a statement upon the contest, and also a bulletin, in which lie claims that the final official returns will show that Bryan has secured 190 votes. In his statement, he eulogises the brave fight made by Mr. Bryan. The result of the election was, 'he declares, due to coercion, intimidation, and corruption by money power on the part of their opponents. He asserts that, though they are defeated, the party will continue to struggle until the American monetary system has been established upon t.he basis which their plat- form has foreshadowed. MR. M'KINLEY TO MR. BRYAN. A Reuter's telegram from New York 011 Friday says :—Mr. M'Kinley has acknowledged receipt of Mr. Bryan's courteous message of congratulation. He thanks his late opponent, and begs him to receive hji; best wishes for his I health and happiness. IVlr. Bryan, who is re- ceiving pledges of support, will continue to fight for free silver. GREAT REVIVAL OF BUSINESS. A Reuter's telegram from New York on Friday says -Reports received from all parts of the United States show that never before has the revival of business following the Presidential election been of such magnitude and so wide- spread as at present, and never previously hall so many industries and business enterprises been affected. Mills and factories which have long been idle are already re-opening. This re- newed activity is nowhere more apparent than illl the South and West. SPECIAL INTERVIEW WITH MR. M'KINLEY. Message to Engla.nd,-The Policy of Tariffs. Hhe "'Daily Telegraph" correspondent- at Canton (Ohio) had an interview on Friday with Mr. M'Kinley. He ivrites: -Refercring to the situation, the President Elect, speaking in a tone almost of solemnity, said:—"We have parsed through a campaign, full of momentous issues. Now it is over, one feels its vast respon- sibilities. In the aggregate they seem over- powering—too much for the mind to realise; butl have felt much, of late, the profound im- portance of principle with regard to this vast issue. At a time Ike this it is a great consola- tion for one who desires to do the best for his country, and not merely for any pa.rty, to have the consciousness of being unbound by preju- dicves or pledges, and of being without auy object but the general welfare. The vctory is admitted and complete. It resembles the Unionist triumph in England. Recognising my obligation to the Gold Demo crates, who left their party to save the country, I am bound! to hold, as I have said in my message to Mr. ITanna, that the victory is not to a party and not to a section, but is a triumph of and for the whole American people." Mr. M'Kinley declined my invitation to dis- cuss the tariff in principle or detail. But tie admitted his preference for changes calculated to protect the industries of the United States and to secure the removal o'f duties upon all goods not produoed here—the prlncipe, in fact, of reciprocity, which was developed in the Bill of 1892. Having hinted that I would gfiladiy send a message from the President Eleot, he said — v "Not directly from me, but you may say that no words better express my feelings towards England than 'Peace on earth, good- will among men.' Let me add that the manner of the Presi- dent. Elect was genial, pleasant, and, indeed. cordial.
