Swansea Fisheries: Informing Report, At Thursday's meeting at Swansea, of -he Glamorgan Sea Fisheries Committee, Mr. F. H. Glynn Price presiding, Inspector Francis spoke of the cargoes of fish landed, and said the landing at the South Dock Fish Wharf had been fairly con sistent, and only on a few occasions had the daily supply failed. The market would shortly be sunported by the landings of five more trawleTS, which are now building. At the East Fish Market the three steam trawlers purchased had arrived and would1 shortly be at work. The Mumbles sailing 1 trawlers fishing within the committee's dis- trict, had not been so successful ss last year; occasionally they hnd had good catches of scles and plaice in Swansea nnd Oxwich, Bays. Harvest mackerel first made their j anpearance this year towards the pod of Mav, and were in the bay now. When mackerel j was in there was not much "ther fish about. On the eastern side the fishing had been very poor With respect to dredg-ing oysters j 13 boats had taken out licenses. Line fishing had not been very successful, with the ex- ception of bass fishing, which had been good. Mussels were plentiful in Swansea Bay, Ox- wich and other parts of the coast. An fX- traordinarv occurrence had taken plac.\ In August about 3 acre* in extent and abreast of the Sonth Do<^k lock, ad at about haif- ebb spring, appeared thickly cohered with large mussels, and thev Pttrac+ed a large number of persons, wh, soon thinned them, and in the course of about five weeks prac- tically cleared them out. As •"here were no stones near, but onlv bard r'd^e? of sard, >t was remarkable, said the Inspector, how they came to settle there H p htd never seen i mussels before onlv where there were st-ones Some time previous there was a very heavy ground SlPa in the Bav. and possibly they mieht have been washed up by the sea Cockles near Briton Ferry-road were still to be had. I The Town Clerk reminded members of "be accumulated surplus arising from working the Mherv-ahont £ 200—nn<3 mentioned the smaTI number of oyster dredgers compared with past times The Chairman said at one time there were qs mnnv as 260. The Town Clerk said French boats used to come. Vfr Je!! kin Fvans said at nr># timl> Swan- ( wa sn-pplied Colchester and Whitetable with oysters. The Town Clerk suggested a committee should 0.1' farmed to con^der wlWber any steps could be taken to improve thp ovster fis^erv. HTid "Messrs Wm Rpvan, P Molvn- .pnx. J. Evans, and th^ Chairman concurred. TVie committee armointed consists of "MWitts. Tn+t^n. W Bevan. Jenkin Evans, and F. H Glynn Price. Mr. A. Andrews said in his opinion the fact of the mact^Tel keening westward was due to the new dock construction, which had 3]+pred the formation of the current and tide. It had practically rnined fishing en the east side of the river. Why the m^kere] had been so Ion?: n the fhv was due, e thought, to the Ion? spell of easterly wind.

Welsh Automobile Club: Meeting- at Swansea, The Welsh Automobile Club, although a very young organisation, io not a little T-roud of itseif, ior with only twelve months of life its membership has gone up to 99, and continues to make strong head- way. A special meeting was held on Thursday evening at the Hotel Metropole, Swansea, members coming from Swansea, Neath, Llanelly, Port Talbot Briton rerry, Tcnby, and other parts. About 45 were present, and Mr. F. Cory Yoo presided. A vote of condolence was passed with Mrs. Trow and family in their recent be- reovemeiit. The attention of members was drawn to the very dangerous bridge over the river at Bridgend, and the secretary was asked to take the matter up. There was a strong feeling that the edu- cationaJ authorities and the National Union of Teachers should be written to asking th^in to circularise the headmasters of schools to warn children against the game and practice of seeing how close they could ru i to motors as they passed. Many mem- bers gave their experiences of the danger wrought to the children themselves. One member gave an instance where his sitter had a tooth knocked out by a stone thrown by some child, J several of this sort were instanced. The question of unlighted vehicles was I tc.k<-n up, the grievance bcmg connected especially with Mumblas-road, and it was decided to ask the police authorities to en- force the observance of the bye-laws. Ice- cream carts and barrel organs which creep along quietly were said to constitute a great darger (to the hand-pulled vehicles). Other points of interest to motorists discussed were the large amount of broken glass which is left lying on the roads, but whicu were even more dangerous to horses and cattle. Chairman impressed upon the members the desirability of treating the general pub- lic with full consideration, and asked that any case of inconsiderate driving on the par* of any member of the club should be reported to the committee. It was the wish of the members generally that lack of thought should be discountenanced. The hon. secretary (Mr. S. L. Gregor, Swansea) W'\Æ; thanked for services. A smoking concert followed the business, and. many more friends joining, a. very en- joyable time was spent. W

LLANELLY CHILD'S DEATH. ] Seven Doctors Called: Curious Case. Llanellv Coroner had a peculiar case to investigate on Friday afternoon. It anxe out of the death of Amelia, Ann Smith- Rex, the five months' old daughter oi John Smith-Rex. of Limekiln-row, Llaneliy. I The Coroner said the child was vaccin- ated on July 29th, and the father subse- quently tailed in a doctor, WJlO mformea him that child's illness was due to the I vaccination. The medica! man advised the tather to call in the doctor who had vac- cinated the cbild. Aiter this six doctor^ were consulted, and the child died on Octo ber 25th. A certificate was given to the effect that death was due to bronchitis. The father, however, was dissatisfied, and in addition to communicating with the police wrote to the Local Government Board, mih the result that that inquiry was be- ing held. It was deemed necessary to hold a post-mortem examination, and some ditii culty was experienced in finding a doctor in the town who had not been consulted. He subsequently ascertained tha.1 Dr. Samuel Williams knew nothing about the case, and he (the coroner) engaged him to mako a post-mortem examination, Dt. Wil- liams would be called, and also the other medical men who were in attendance. John Smith-Rex (father), m answer to the coroner, said the child had been fed from birth on cow e milk, but could only give tne name of one person who ouppiied it— John Rees—who sold them two quarts two days prior to the child's death They did not use anything but condensed milk in the house, and he would swear none of thii had been given the child. When pressed, he admitted tha.t it was stra,nge lie couid not mention the persons who supplied tn0m with the milk. Mrs. Rex, mothei of the deceased, cor- roborated the evidence of her husband. When they received the ceitificate from the doctor it was taken to the pulioe station. She was certain no condensed milk was' given to the child The only nedicme used was thai supplied by Dr Davies. When Dr. Webster called he advised her to seno for Dr. Evans. After the death of the; child, Dr. Davies refused a certificate and j advised her to see wnat Dr. Evans had to say. He directed her to see the police if what the eel tiricate stated was incorrect. By a juror: How many prescribed for .he cluld The Corjner: Six, but only one medicine was given, luckily I supposed. Continuing, the witness made a number cf statement^ that were not in accord with the story given by her husband. Dr. SaUiCel Wiiliams gave the result of his pest-m- rtem examination, and attn- buted death to bronchitis, accelerated by malnutrition. Dr. J. L. D ;vies put a number of ques- ticns to the witness. Dr. Webster said ths,t when called in the parents expressed the opinion that the state of the child's health was due to vaccina tion. It was on that account he d rected the pai-;nts to consult the vaccination officer As two doctors had previously at- tended, he thought they had quite sum- cient medical men He agreed with Dr. Williams a. tc the cause of death Dr H H Rcb rts expressed the sann opinion, and added tiiat tLe mother in ormod bini that the "tlild had been fed on con- densed nulk. The dressing on the arm wheh Dr. Hemmel used and Dr. Davies re- mcved was the praper thing. Dr. J. L. Davies was ca'led and expressed dist greemtnt with Dr. Roberts as to the dieting. The immediate cause of death was bronchitis accelerated by vaccmaticn and malnutrition. The w-tnjss, ,n answer to questions oy the coroner, said he did not consider it ms cuty to inform Dr Hemmel that he dio- agreed to the dressing. He could have re- ferred to the vaccination in making a cer- tificate of death, but refused the certificate. The Coroner also made the observation fhat there had evidently been some feelmg r between the medical men. Dr. Hemme! also gave evidence and said the bronchitis had nothing to do with the death. The foreman of the jury said the Jury were agreed upon that point. The Coroner stated that it would not therefore be necessary to call further evi- dence. The jury found that the child died from tronchitii accelerated by malnutrition.

Briton Ferry Council Books. At Briton Ferry Council on Thursday evening, Coun. W. Jenkins pressing, me question of Mr. Kemptnorn- account against the Council was mentioned. Mr. M. G. Roberts said as they had sent him a cheque of JS30 they would probably hear no more oi the matter The clerk read a letter from Mr. Kemp- thorne (me late clerk) making application foi account books of the Burial Board, sup- posed to be in his possession. 'ihe le^er stated that Mr. Kempthorne had no books nor moeny be-ongiug- to the Council in his possecsion- He suggested to the Council two alternatives, viz., that they should ask Mr. Eliis, the accountant, where they were, or issue a. warrant for his (Mr 1. home's) arrest. (Loud laughter.) Mr. Branch said that at the last meeting Councillor Jeffreys made a serious charge against him (the speaker), but knowing the I ooiruon of members, he toe., no notice. After considering the matter, and having regard to the publicity given by the press, regard to the publicity given by the press, etc., to Mr. Jeffreys remarks, he felt bound to ask Mr. Jeffreys to withdraw tbe charge and accusation that he had made. Mr. JeSreys I made no charge or any- thing of the kind. Mr. Branch proceeding) Or else he would be compelled to take the necessary skps to vindicate his character. Rather a breezy scene followed in which Mr. Jeffreys, Mr. Branch, and Mr. Ge-hin took part, strong expressions being used and vain attempts were made by some mem- btrs to get a word in. Aid. Hill pointed out that whoever had the books, Air. Aea^pthorne was responsible for them. If anyone had receipts for money which it was thought had not be.-n credited to the Council, let them be manly enougn to produce the receipts instead of tailing about it all over the town. (Hear, hear.) Mr. Branch's amendment to a prior reso- lution that a special committee be ap- pointed to thoroughly investigate the mat- ter was unanimously carried. Messrs. Gwynne, Jenkins, Hill, Jeffreys and Branch were appointed to act on the committee.

Christian Unity at Clydach. Church and chapel are in Swansea Valley so joined in the bonds of mutual affection and appreciation that even variation of views on matters educational is powerless to dis- unite them. This was demonstrated at Clydach on Thursday, tor at least haJf-a-dozi. Noncon- formist ministers attended the consecration service of St. Mary s Church. They w-ere warmly welcomed, and pains were taken to find them good seats. They were even bet- ter provided for than pressmen in this re- spect. Among Nonconformist ministers present were noticed: Revs. T. Valentine Evans, Clydach (Baptist), Hughes, Landoro (Con- gregational), B. Lewis, Llangyfelach (Bap- tist), R. Lewis, Graig (Baptist), E. Jen- kins, Pantycrwys (Congregational), Evan T. Thomas, Ynistawe (Baptist).

WAUNARLWYDD STRIKE. Parents QuarreHing-: Early "Peace" Probable. The latest meeting of the Waunarl wydd parents in connection with the schons strike wa3 presided over by Mr Rees Pees, who was disappointed at the small atten- dance present, by contrast to other meetings. Mr Ben Jones alluded to the martyrs fhat had sacrificed their lives for their iigh+s. and they were cowed by the action of a ^ountv Council in the Twentieth Century. But he was not afraid of them, and he was willing to give his life for the cause of their children's morality. He was sorry to see I their leaders giving in. and they were bound to admit that they had been influenced ty 'he Rev. J Davies, Cadle. The Chairman said he was quite as deter- mined to fig-ht now as at the beginning, but they should not cast the blame on the deputa- tion for suggesting an armistice. Mr Jenkins said the soldiers had lost all confidence in their eenerals whpn the enemy were in that very room. "You went and fought with the other side," he said. (Cries of "Chair, chair.') Mr. Rees Rees vacated the chair and asked them to select atother in his stead He was not going to act "to be made personal abuse of If they were going to split, they were doomed to disaster Mr J. Jenkins Thomas, as one of the deputation, said they thought when at Gowerton that they were doing the best to get the whole thing settled Coun Wm. John hoped they had not come to find fault with each r.ther but that .hey had come to fight the Glamorgan Countv Council He proposed that they keep their children in school until Mr Davies h<>d re- ceived the report of the sub committee re the matter It would be folly on their part to withdraw their children nntil the report was received—Mr John Thomas seconded. Mr George John moved an amendment that they withdraw their children the next morning.—MT Ben Jones seconded. Mr Rees Rees again vacated the chair, and he told them to do as they liked. Coun John's proposal was carried by twenty votes to three and the meeting end xl in a most noisy manner.

Swansea Waterman's Language Criticised, 0 —^ Porrtardawe Council met on Thursday, Mr. J. Griffi t; is presiding The Surveyor reported that Pwllbach water supply, Ystalyfera, was nearly dried up. Wern was consequently supplied inter- mittently. Cljdacb srupply ran short on Tuesday. The water is to be turned off each day between 6 p.m. and 12 noon. Allt- wen district had also been s»hort during the past few woeks It has since been discovered tha+ a main burst in Tames-strcet, Pontar- dawe, when a large quantity of water leaked. Mr. L. W. Francis said the language used by the Swajisea waterman to the Pon'ardawe waterman a short time ago when he came to Pontardawe to turn off some water, was quite profane and unworthy of any man. L was of the lowest class possible.—The Sur- veyor is to ap] roach the Swansea borough engineer on the matter. Estimates were received for the cost of lighting Swansea-road, Trebanos, by acety- lene gas—Adjourned. Clydach members recommended four addi- tional lamps for Vardre and Penybank.— Several members thought Clydach was flooded with light, while Trebanos was in darkness. Two lamps are to be put up at Clydach. Mr. Howell Harris, Cwmgoree. applied for a slaughter-house license.—Granted. Regarding the four dilapidated cwellings at Park-street, Brynamman, the owner had not complied with the request of the Coun- cil. The doctor is to report. Depositing of refuse at Pwllywrach, Gwaun-cae-gurwen, had been stopped by the G.W.R. Co. owing to the extension of their line.—It was decided to obtain an estimate with regard to a portable dust destructor.

Shipowners' Negrligrence Act, 1905 A meeting of Trade Unionists represented on the Trade and Labour Committee, for amending the raw relating to workmen in British ports obtaining compensation from foreign shipowners for personal injuries, appointed ten years ago, was held at the Maritime Hall, Poplar, London, on Inurs- day evening, to celebrate the passing of the Shipowners' Negligonce (Remedies) Act of 1905, into law. The Act gives the power of causing the arrest oi a 6hip when a workman (such as a. ptevedore) sustains personal mjuries in the course of his employment by the negligence of it6 masteT or crew. Mr. Gosling (L.C.C.) presided, and there were present Mr.. nder- son (the secretary of the committee), Sir H. Samuel, M.P., and Mr. D Brynmor Jones, K.C., M.P., who have had the Bill in charge for several sessions, and whose efforts were crowned with success this la.st session. A vote of thanks was enthusiastically passed to Sir H. Samuel and Mr. Lrynmor Jones for their work in regard to drafting the Bill, conciliating opposition, and pilot- ing it through Parliament. A beautifully illuminated address was pre- sented to Mr. Brynmor Jones "as a mark of appreciation of the invaluable service ren- dered by him to British workmen engaged in the shipping industries of the United Kingdom in the promotion and passage of the Shipowners' Negligence (Remedies) Bill." A similar address was presented tOo Sir H. Samuel.

Fforestfach Sunday Trading Pro- secutions. A number of small shopkeepers at Fforest- fach, as elsewhere, make a little harvest by Sunday trading. During the last year or ^o these people have been induced much against their wishes to close. Some of them approached Coun. Thos. Hopkins, chairman of the Western District of Miners, and he, after making enquiries, came to the conclusion that the local police did not act entirely upon their own initiative in the mat- ter, but were influenced by representations made by persons in the neighbourhood. In the interests of the small shopkeepers in the district most of whom are aged widsws and peroons\vbo have been disabled through acci dent, Mr. Hopkins communicated with the Chief Constable of Glamorganshire (Capt. Lindsay) and received the following reply — "Dear Sir,—I have given no special in- structions re closing widows' or other shops on Sunday in your district.—Yours faithfuiy, Lionel Lindsay, Chief Constable." The foregoing tells its own story.

Swansea's Water Bargain with Pontardawe. At Pontardawe Council on Thursday, Mr. John Griffiths presiding, Mr. John James moved that steps be taken to provide public lighting for Caegurwen by electricity, and moved that a small deputa- tion arrange with the Brynamman Supp'y Co. for the best terms possible. Messrs. Herbert Llovd, Jno. James, Hargreaves, the Clerk and Engineer were appointed as deputation. It was deckled that Mr. Herbert Lloyd should attend the conference of the District Councils re water supply, at Neath, on Nov. 8th. Mr. John Griffiths was deputed to seal the agreement between the Council and Swansea re water supplies from Cray. The agree- ment stated that the Corporation was at liberty to stop the suppiv at any time, the annual supply to be not less than fifteen mil- lion gallons of water, unless limited by the Corporation, and that 8d. per 1,000 gallons be paid. The agreement is to be in force for five years.. Mr. M. E. Morgan, Ynisgenon Cottage, Godregraig, was appointed clerk of works and buildings inspector.

George Davies (27), labourer, of No. 4, Williams-place, Swansea., was on Saturday working for Messrs. J. and D.

Pastor's Pronouncement from the Pulpit. Friction exists between some of the mem- bers of Seion Welsh Baptist Church, Mor- riston, and the minister (the Rev. J. Gim- blett), and matters rea2hed a climax on Si cday evening, when after the service Mr. Giniblett told the members of tne church thit some would try to starve him if they could, and that he was being persecuted by a few. The announcement caused consider- able astonishment amongst the members, an-i, to use the words of one present, they came like a thunderbolt from the pulpit. Inquiries go to show that difieiences exist between some of the members and the unn- ister, who has been at Ssion ior three years. Twelve mouths ago Mr. Gimbiett, who now resides at Cwmrhydyceirw, tendered three months' notice, but before the expiration of tbe period withdrew the same. Mr. Gimblett during his ministry at Seion has done gpod work, which is freely recogniscd. It is to be hoped that the dif- ferences, which appear to have no serious foundation, will be removed, and Mr. Gim- blett continue the work which he has so much at heirl. As an instance of the work hi has accomplished, Mr. Gimblett has dur- ing his pastorate of Seion succeeded in clear- ing off 6800 of the debt of the chapel. Mr. Gimblett was away from home v. hen a "Post" representative called at his houee on Friday afternoon, but Mrs. Gimblett stated that by far the greater number of the church-workers were with her husband in his work, and it was only a small minor- ity with whom differences had arisen. She further stated that one or two members had applied for transfers to the Baptist Church at Cwmrhydyceirw.

FRENCH COUNTESSS DIVORCE SUIT, Husband Denies Charges of 111- Usage. In the Divorce Court on Friday, further evidence was given in the suit of Anna, Countess de Hamel de Manin, v. Gustavo Leon Albert Count de Hamel de Manin. A servant stated she heard quarrelling be- tween the parties at Scarborough, and she afterwards found the countess lying on the floor of the hall in an unconscious condition. Mrs. M. A Sbeoherdson, who in 1894 let apartments to the countess in Esplanade- gardens, Scarborough, said she remembered the occasion of a disturbance between the countess and count. She found the countess unconscious on the bed, and petitioner re- mamed in that condition an hour and a half. The countess afterwards complained to wit- ness about the count. The glass of the door was smashed to atoms. Mr. Robert Clayton, Woentbournc Park, said the count had consulted him about hiB affairs. Witness said that Rose Spilla-ne had made a statement to him that when she went to the count's house for a situation, he (the count) oommitted misconduct with her after giving her something to drink. The count had told the witness that Rcse Spillane was essential to his happiness, and that he loved her too deeoly to part with her. The girl had been in the count's service a-bout three years. Counsel, in opening the case for the count, sa-id he bad one of the oldest titles in France. With regard to the counter-allegation, coun- sel said it was alleged that in 1895 or 1896 the countess committed adultery with a, young man in Paris. Count de Manin, the respondent, said he was born in 1847, and had lived III England since he was six years old. His father first came over here during the period of the Revolution. Witness denied the allegations of cruelty, and said, "I swear before God I never put a finger on any woman to hurt ber." k Justice Bargrave Deane here remarked it was no use witness talking like that. He (the count) had been convicted at the police court of assaulting a woman. Continuing, witness said that because he would not let the countess go out while in an excited state, she pushed him through a plate glass door. He then lost his temper, and took hold of hcT arm to prevent her striking him She afterwards fell down. While in bed someone said she _waa rncon- scious. He disputed it, al;^T °ountess opened her eyes and said, "Yes I am; yea I am." (Laughter.) (Proceeding-)

Llanellv Carpenter's Shop Gutted An alarming fire occured at King's-square, Llaneliy, on Thursday evening. At half-past ten o'clock dense volumes of smoke were ob- servvd in Stepney-street and the adjoining t hcroughfares, and the pedestrians were puzzled as to where it proceeded from. It soon transpired that a carpenter's workshop was ablaze in King's-square, on the river side. At ftrst there was only a smouldering fire, but it soon burst into fame, and fanned by the wind the outbreak a&sumed serious pro- portions. A strong force of police, under Inspector Rogers, and the fire brigade, were promptly in attendance, many of the men putting in an appearance a few minutes after tne alarm was raised. At the outset it became ap- parent that the building and etock wa.s doomed, and the firemen directed their atten- tion to preventing the fire from spreading. Unly separated by the river, which is about 20 feet wide, were the back premises of the business houres in Stepney-street, ar-d within 12 feet, on the other side, was a cottage, whilst there were also dwellings at the other end. There waz therefore the dangei I of the fire spreading m many directions. Fortunately a plentiful supply of water was obtainable, aad after battling with the flaires for three-quarters of an hour, the men got the fire fairly under control. From a cLifitance it presented a pretty sight, and could be seen in many directions, attract- ing a large crowd. The premises and stock were completely destroyed, and it is not known whether any insurance had been effected The occupier was Mr. J. Israel Jone6, builder and con- tractor. The employes left work about 5 p ni., and when P.S. Dunn passed the pre- mises about 10.15 the place presented its usual appearance.

Cockett Schools Renovation. During the last eighteen months consider- able alterations have been made internally and externally to St. Peter's Schools, Cockett in complIance. with the requirements of the County Council. The water supply and sanitary arrange- ments have been brought up to date. In *he mixed departments a partition has be*n added in order to provide separate class rooms. The liea/'ng of the schools has been entirely rene^svj upon modern principles. Previously the windows did not afford effec- tive light Now. however, the apertures have been enlarged, and frames inserted, affording ample light. The infants' lobbv has been enlarged, and made more easy of across.. The total cost of the improvements is about j3500 Sir John Llewelyn contributed £2.3 to be devoted to sanitation. Rev 0. Roderick, vicar, has put forth all his ener- gies to obtain the requisite funds, and equal credit is due to the managers for the per- severance they have shown m executing the demands of the Council, under considerable disadvantages.

Williams said no matter what was the ultimate decision of the Gower As- sociation, he should accept it and work cor- dially for the Liberal Association's nom- inee. The result of the Government's pol- icv was that there was less money for new industries, which were much wanted, and less money to purchase the necessaries of life The prosperity 0f the Mumbles de- pended upon the prosperity of the local in- di strics. Protection was sure to diminish the ability to buy. Our sea-carrying trade in 1902 was 877 millions; in 1903, 889 mil- lions and in 1904, 901 millions—aJi evi- dence that it was not going to ruin. America, under Protection, no longer took tho second place, ii! the maritime list; she was a very bad fifth. He was in favour of extending the Compensation Act to seamen, fishermen, ca'odrivers, and all classes of workers in all departments. (Hear, hear.) W hat was wanted in regard to the housing question was better terms for purchase, at lcwer rates of interest and for longer per- iods. In conclusion, he said if he became :heir representative he would support all measures for the general welfare of th 3 masses.. Mr. C. W. Slater (solicitor) asked whe- ther Mr. Williams was unreservedly in fa- vour of absolute popular control, with the entire absence of all denominational te6ts. Mr. Williams said he was in lavour of popular control and all appointments being open to all, without any religious tests at all (Applause.) In answer to turta-i questions, he said he was in favour of pub. licly acquiring waste and idle Lands to be cultivated for the use of the people. e mentioned in that wnnection that 34 mil- lions worth of timber was imported every year, and if they cultivated those idle lands it would be a great assert, to the nation. "I did not expect to see so many here to-night," said the chairman "Things are working up a bit in the Mumbles. Rev. S C. Pinch proposed a vote of thanks to Mr. Williams. This was second- ed by Mr T. Jones (Southend), who said 1L. Williams would make the best repre eentative. voice Not the subject. Mr. T. J. Williams, in reply, said there was sufficient room to fight the election without going into personalities (Hear, hear.) lIe should conduct his campaign °n politics, and although he would riot, indulge personalities he must defend any question concerning his position. The previous evening Mr. John Williams, speak- ing at Treboeth, made reference to the speaker being a barrister. He was a bar- rister, but he was still a very large em- plover of labour, and his interests were con- cerned throughout that constituency in the employment of labour. it was not long since he purchased the Beaufort Tinplate Works. He had had no great desire to go back to the tinplate industry, but want was at that time very great in Morriston— pinched children and women were seen in the streets—so he took action and pur- chased the works, which he was glad to _J.Y were going well to-day. (Applause.) "I am a labour capitalist," he con- cluded.

SWANSEA CHAMBER OF COM- MERCE, Monthly Meeting. I Swansea Chamber of Commerce met m monthly meeting on Friday afternoon, Mr Ja-s. Livingston presiding. The following were elected new members M.asfii>^ H. G. Bail, J, J.apjes and p. ft. Rees. i; Tho President said the agitation original mg with the Chamber with respect to the lighting of the Prince of Wales Dock had proved effectual and was being dealt with practically, Mr. Brown (the contractor) having been instructed to instal the neces- sary lights. The Secretary (Mr. E. P. Jones) reported with reference to the taring of coal trucks that it was arranged that a deputation o: shippers shuuld mftet Mr. T. H. Rendall, chief goods manager of the G.W.R. that day, but thu conference haJ been post- poned until Nov. 1st. -\1 r McKinnon, Canadian Agpnt at Bris- tol recently came to Swansea and leH sam pie* of coals pent over by the Canadian Manufacturers Association showing the coa; now used there. The Secretary said the idea was that the Canadians would Le glad tc give an oppor- tunity to coal-sellers in the Old Country to supply the sa-me, given equal quality and satisfactory prices. Mr. McKinnon saw a number oi shippers, who were now 'eft to take the matter nn. Mr. McK-innon had promised to obtain a list of the principal coalmerchants, which would be forwarded to the fjicaivsr. (Hear, hear.) Mr. W Howell brought up a question of telephonic delay to various plaoes, especi- ally t<. London. The matter had become very serious during the last few months. The postmaster had written respecting the delav of a message, and saying it was due to pressure on the trunk linc. Additional trunk facilities, including a direct London wire were being provided, which wouid materially assist telephone communication fron- Swansea. Mr. Howelle said his re- niarks applied equally to Liverpool, New- csstle, and Glasgow, and he thought they should urge for the provision of a direct lino to Newcastle. Mr. Howell then ailud^ ed to the delay of outgoing telegrams, and said he believed a great deal was caused in the Swansea post Office on account of there not being a sufficient staff to dea.1 with tele- giams when things were busy. He propos- ed that the secretary be ^ru'^dto ^'lt'e to the postmaster and ask for better facili- ties and suggested including direct tele- phone to* & W«oI, «Hl ^iTaS-ei- to tho cWrman, Mr. Howell sa.d Cardiff were much better off as regards t^l^Pho"10 seconded, and said it seemed Vhim when a Swansea telephone f'iven they had to wsit until all the C rdiff calls were satisfied. He instanced, ti with telegraphic delav. how a fixture had been lost because a Cardiff op- eirt>6 telegram h-anded in three-quarters T>Tr' n hour after the one from Swansea, ar- "j ed at Newcastle half-a-n-hour beiorc the Swansea wire. The motion was carried. \jr R. L. Sails brought forward the ie-tion of shunting delav bv the Royal In- Jti'tion, and he instanced delays when one wanted to catch the one o'clock train. He had seen loads of 17 wacrons a'ld the shunt- ing in short sections, which meant consider- able delav to peonle who wanted to get across. In -act, he had seen men and w" rn: OJ creeping underneath in order to catch trains. • Xt was decided to bring the inconvenience betore the Harbour Trust.

Mr, Daniel Evans' Affairs. The public examination cf Ml. Daniel Evans, solicitor, of Crown Honse, -;no No 9, Wheat-street, Brecon, was held at Mer- thyr, n Friday Mr. R T. Leyson, Swan- sea, repre—-ted the trustee, N'. Plews, barrister. Debtor said three receiving orders bad been made against him, the first in Octo- ber 1902. Their cause was tororgh his having been in such a bad state of health for years that he was unable t. attend to business. Official Receiver: I suppose &6 far back as October, 1902, you were unable to pay a debt due to Messrs. Vu. Leeoar uad Morris? Debtor, who seemed very wea and waq so affected by hie position that he wept openly, replied that he had ample property then, but he was absolute) v not !r a state of healtb to attend to hi& business. He was trying his best to do eo. Eventually, I think, you settled with sev- eral of your creditors, and the petitions were withdrawn? Yes, sir. Debtor, continuing, put gross liabilities at £ 29,001, and secured liabilities £ 21,36S. The deficiency was £ 2,418 9s. 5c He had kept no books of account through increase of business. He attributed los. tc his es- tate of between £ 3,000 and £ 4.00C to the "reckless disposal" of part of his property by the mortgagees. Every per- hat he had received from clients had be.: n invested in property.

INSPECTOR JOHN REES DEAD. Familia Fig vrt! on Swansea Tram- ways. The death took place with painful sud denness, on Thursday night, at the age ot 62 years. of Mr. John Rees, the chief :n spector under the Swansea Improvements aind Tramways Company. Mr. Rees had been abtmt his usual duties during the day, but about nine o'clock he called at Dr. YV. Morgan's, Adelaide-street, for a bottle of medicine because of indigestion At half past 01:11: tie left by thE: Mumbles train for his residence at Blackpill, Mr George Davies, the statiunmaster at Rutland-titreet. I acoompanymg him down. At Blackpill the two said "Good Night," Mr. Rees ueing then apparently in his usual health ano spirits. Nor was anything very unfoward observed as the inspector partook of supper and afierwa'ds retired to rest. About 11.30, p.m., Mrs. Rees, however, went upstairs and then found her husband seriously ill. A medical man was immediately sent for, but when it got rumoured about among the passengers of the 12 midnight up-train that Mr. Rees was ill, it was observed that Dr. Frank Thorns was on the train, and, witb the consent of the passengers, the train put back to Blackpill, but it was now too late as Mr. Roes had passed away, pre- sumably from syncope. Deceased, it may be added, had not beeO well of late, as he had been grieving over the death of his little grandson, yi mg Owen (the son of Mr Owen, tailor, Oxford-street) of whom hs wa* particularly fond By rea- son, both of his calling and his rare geni- ality, the late Inspector Rees was among the best known men in Swansea. Brought up at Killay, he became ngaged with the Mumbles Railway when a youth 17 years if age, and remi>n<x3 in the same emplov for the rest of his life-45 years—being the oldest officii connected with the railway. He saw all the marked improvements as- sociated with modern railway travelling, witnessing the greatest chanse of alJ from the old horse car to the present admirable steam service. And when the trams were introduced into the town he was appointed the inspector, and was again privileged to witness the electrical conversion and exten- sion of the system of a few "ears ago. It was with especial pride that he was able to take part in the centenary rejoicings of the passing of the old Mumbles Railway Act and his reminiscences at that time helped to form ap interesting chapter in local history. He leaves a widow and eight grown-up children (four married and kmr single.) One of his boys is in the otilr.? of the Swansea and Mumbles Railway Company. With the bereaved family the deepest sympathy will go out horn a large circle of warm-hearted friends.

Swansea Metal Exchange Quota- tions. Attention 1*5 drawn in a contemporary to tne variance of the officials quotations of the Swansea Meta1 Eschajige with the figures at which business hacs been quoted elsewhere. This refers particularly to tinplates. In Tuesday's officiai quotations, Bessemer steeJ cokes were quoted 14s. to 14s. 6d. On ihe London and Liverpool metal markets the pnce was !& 9d. to 13s. The Swansea Metal Exchange authorities, in answer to a letter pointing out the differences, explain that market quotations are made to cover the cost of production on the basis of the value of the raw material, and the quotations of tinplates given are quite inadequate to cover the extra cost, while buyers are withholding orders, as they have repeatedly, to 'bear' the market, and dictate terms and condition to the producer, who should be the '}nly source from which value of their production is made. There has always been (continues the reply) a difference between the prices quoted by sellers on Swansea Exchange to those of the buyers in London and Liverpool, who are seeking to dominate over the pro- ducer, who only has the right to fix the mar- ket price. As another illustration of the variance of quotations published, patent fuel may be mentioned. This was officially given as 12s. 6d. to 13s. 9d., whereas Swansea's pa-tent fuel is selling at 113 6d., 'Lnd a great deal has been sold below that figure. Again Rubio ore is quoted at Swansea at 15s., y(,t at Middlesboro' recently from 18s. to 136. per t..n.. h.w>.Q paia.
