Tlien lie mentioned Sir George Elliot who commenced aa a door-boy, hut-who, when he-died, was worth something like £ 200,000, and yet who, whenever be met T1i.n1, always argued' that lw was losing money, A great deal of contention folloved in this strain, and the conference lasted, over two hours, and ultimately collapsed upon the fact that the colliery owners distinctly stated that they would not give way, and further stated that, in their opinion, they ougut to reduce the per ceiitage to 7^ in d e la., instead of 8if, because tiiey did not ujak; money. Mr, Morgan added other instances of collieries paving in the old days, viz., Nixcn's, ana the Oct an and Dow- lais Collieries,, and, he remarked, if they paid in those days, he was under the impression that they ought to pay to-da.y. True, the colliery I owners argued that they were working under a I new system, of colliery operations, viz.. the "lone wall" system but Mr. Morgan asked if *he "pillar-anil-stall" system paid better why not go back to it. Then the workmen's representatives had no more to bay, and the whole matter coliapr<ed, the conference coming to a termination without any arrangement being made for resuming tiie proceedings. They had left the e*np&c»y«re to ttI fiheir own oo^isft, They had discussed the question of the umpire, and the fixing of the price at great bsngth on Thursday, when the* workmen's re- presentatives pleaded that in other part*, of the country the appointment at an I .iwMi -wurtajBA MS in Norkhtunberland, Durha^n, and the Mid- land-Coonties.

The ? announoement in the evening papers "that'the negotiations a.t the joint sliding-t«ale committee had collapsed without, any arrange-, me lit having been made for a future confe- rence was read with a good deal of anxiety by those immediately interested in the coal trade, who, although they do not. despair of both aides again coming together- before the notice to terminato the &liding-seale c--1' ires on the 31t of March next, are not :\11, ,uier sanguine of the matter being settb ithout some serious labour troubles. Owing l he nieet- mgof t,he-slidinq.se1-le conunittee heme held in the afternoon the proceedings did not terminate uutil the merchants had: all left the Docks, and many of them who live out of town did not see the result of tlie meeting as published in the evening newspapers. The opinions of two or three individual merchants seen by our representative, however, were that if the men persisted in their deiywidt3 it was pro- baole that a cxrious rupture would take place.

DEATH OF THE BISHOP^OF>; LLA^DAPFS WLb E. A USEFUL^ LIFE. It is our painful duty to announce the-death- of Mrs. Oeorgiana JBLing Lewis, wife of Richard,. Bislioy of Lianckitf: whioh took place at the Bishop's Palace, LWidaff, at three o'clock 010 Sunday morning. Mrs. Lewis had been. in failing health for tlie last two years, 11 id, oon- ecqueiitly, was unable to devote 90 xauch tiine as she hithferto had to parochial work. It was only;, on Monday feist, however, that ehe.was taken) seriously ill with an. acute attack of bronchitis. This treacherous disease was overcome, and on Frida-y hopes were entertained of Mrs. Lewis's recovery. The heart, however, was too weak to withstand the attack, aud on Saturday the doctors feared that her life could not be pro- longed for hours. Their anticipation, unfortunately, proved correct, and on Sunday morning she passVd peaeefnily Mis. Lewis was the daughter of Captain John I Lewis, of blio HoiK»ural>le Fast India. Company's Service. She liorn at Kirkee, in India, on the 13t.J¡ of November, 1817. and was, therefore, in her seventy-eighth year. 8h was married to the Bishop of Llandaff (then the Rev. Richard Lewi*, ourate of Denchworth, Berkshire.) in April. 1847. With her husband she went from there to Flax ley., Forest of Dean, and later, about. 48 YiJ ago, to Lampeter-Vclfrey, Pew- brokeshire, the living of which was presented to her husband at t.hat tune. Thf. appointment of Wie Rev. Richard Lewis to the Bishopric of Lhuidaff in 1883 necessitated her third and last removal since he-r marriat.e. lrG. Lewis was aquiet, unostentatious woman, and a faithful and loving wife, These chara.cristic8 did not, however-, prevent her from devoting j, great part of her life to parochial work aud t.he ame- lioration of the condition of those among whom she lived. Both at Denchworth and Flaxley she was greatly beloved, and at La.mpeter Velfrey she did n immense amount of good during the long period which she spent in that parish. It Wa4! with the deepest t'egret that the parishioners parted with one whom they rightly considered a warm-hearted and generous friend. The appointment of Bishop Lt-wis to Llandari increased the responsibilities and, at the same time, extended the sphere of usefulness of the deceased lady. She threw herself into the good work with as much avidity as did the bishop himself, and there was scarcely any religious or charitable insti- tution in the diocecse iin which her valuable services be of use which she did not take the liveliest interpst in. She was for some years president of the Girls' Friendly Society, an association of working girls and young women wno are combined together for mutual he'p, both religious aud secular. Other objects of this society are the encourage- ment of purity of life, dutifulmss to parents, faithfulness to employers, and thrift. Those who belong to the organisation have the pri vi, t8ge of going from one branch to allobheor with- out imrod,uct.iol1. and thus are enabled W obtain faithful friends in strange places. When Aberdure took the presidency of this excellent organisation Mv*. Lewis was appointed honorary president, in recognition of her valuable services, ami that position she held until her death. he was also president of the Llandaff Branch of the Ladies'Home Mission Association, which was formed to minister to the salvation of souls by increasing the number of clergy in the lajrge manufacturing towns, soaports, and the min.ing- and widely-spread agricultural dis- tricts. These are only two of the most nn- portant institutions in which Mrs. Lewis took a prominent part. Durlllg her residence a.t Llandaff she la.id the foundation-stones of eight or nine churches, among them being All Saints', a.t Llniidati" Yard, and the. new aisle of St. Catherine's Church, Pontypridd. For the last few years Mrs. Lewis's health has not allowed her to attend as many functions as she would have wished, but she occasionally opened bazaars and other meetings in a.id of the Church. Among the parishioners of Llan- daff Mrs. Lewis was extremely popular. She was ix-vei weary of assisting tho who were in distress, and it is no exaggeration to say that the was universally bi-loved. The news of her death on Sunday morning came as a great shock to everyone in the city, and at most of the houses the blinds were drawn. At the morning service at the cathedral the organist. Mr. G. G. Beale. played the "Dead Ma.roh," and several among the congregation were visibly affected. The only near relative who Mrs. Lewis lid alive is a half sister, who is the wifo of Colonel Lord, and resides in Londun The only offspring is Mr. Arthur LeW!!> the well-known ban ister, of Tynewydd, Llandaff. Both he and the bishop are, naturally, very greatly upset, by the death, for, although Mrs. Lewis was in advanced years and had been ailing for a. long lime, the end came upon them very (suddenly. FUNERAL ARRANGEMENTS. Nothing definite lev yet been arranged in regard to the funerai, "but it will probably take place on Friday next at Llanddewi-Velfrey, near Narlierth, the bishop's native place, and wher- he still possesses the family stat of Hen] lan. Any friends who may desire to send1 wreaths are earnestly requested to contribute instead the value of the flowers to the mayor's fund for the rehef of the sick and suffering poor of Oar- diff.

PEMBROKESHIRE OTTER HUNT. AMALGAMATION WITH CARMAR- THENSHIRE. On Saturday at tho Tvy Bush Royal Hotel, Carmarthen, Mr. W. J. Buckley, M.F.H., pre- sided over a. largely-attended meeting of sport men held for the purpose of considering the proposal to include Carrnartbenslun* in the Pembrokeshire Otter Hunt. A deputation from Tenby, including the master of the Pem- brokeshire Otter Hounds, Mr. J. Evans, attended to urge the advisability Of carrying ''out the proposal.—Tlie Chairman, who was well received, expressed his willingness, as master of the Carmn,rthenshirc, Foxhounds, to allow the Pembrokeshire Otterhounds to hunt the rivers hunted by the late Mr, W. R. H. Powell, Maerl- gwynne, and which were the recognised sphere of the Carmarthenshire Hounds. In conclusion, Mr. Buckley proposed that Carmarthenshire join Pembrokeshire, and that the club hence- forth be known ao the Carmarthenshire and Pembrokeshire Otter Hunt Club.—Dr. R. L. liiOiuas seconded the motion, which was unani- mously agreed to.—Com mimical ions were then read from various landowners granting the club permission to hunt parts of the Towy, Gwili, Cofchi, Gwendraeth, and the Loughor be- longing to them. It wa-s pointed, however, that with respect to certain portions of she Towy and the Tave some difficulty might be experienced, as rights had been established by other elub«.—A representative sub-committee was appointed to take into consideration the question.

Members use the-se corridors for various purposes. 11 is a favou- rite place with some for writing their letters. On the occasion to whioh I allude either poor Sir Wa.lter was too deeply immersed in his letters or had fallen into slumber so profound that he did not hear the question put, and when, therefore, he got down to the lobby below, he found himself among the Trish—at that poriod in the epoch of their fieroe.se, mast desperate, ami most reckless fight :1!f.tin"" oootcion. The Irish all loved Sir Walter, and he loved them, but they hated each other's politics, and a peri amidst the myrmidons of Beelzebub could not have felt more horrified than Sir Walter when he dci-eeuded with the small group of Irish representatives. When Sir Walter wasa greeted with the usual cyclone, and saw whence it came, he knew he was a lost man! But he was too dogged and brave an old boy to yield even in th extTlJlet 110111.. He rushed up the stairs again, took refuge in one of the "m«*.ms of escape whic h are known to the House, and looked the door. Mr. Power, the Chief Whip of the Irish party, when standing at the table to deliver the numbers, made report to Mr. Speaker Brand that 'there was a. member in one of the division lobbies who had not recorded his vote, and Captain Gosset, tile then Sergeant-at-Arms, was ordered to pro- duce 'the missing man. Accompanied by the whipe he ascended the -•♦airs, and with his sword struck the door of "the means of escape," and cried. "Come out, Sii Walter Barttelot," and out Sir Walte- had to pome. The procession was re-formed, and down it descended to the House. Poor Sir Walter with shame, ht miliation, and rage- was trembling, and disturbed. And then, with gmit solemnity, he had to account for himself to the Koeaker, and at laèt, was allowed to get to his seat. I don't know that anybody would have laughed if MI. Chamberlain had been obliged to go through the same ordeal, for he has not ninny friends; and, besides, his ignominious retreat was from his own friends and his own move; Sir Walter Barttelot was simply running away from a mi stake and from his enemies. -=

THE RAILWAY COMMISSION. THE GREAT WESTERN RATES AND CHARGES. IMPORTANT APPEAL. On Saturday, before tht. president of the Rail- way Commission (Mr. Justice Collins) the Great Western Railway Company made an important application in connection with the proceedings taken against them by the Mansion House Asso- ciation in Railway Traffic in reference to the company's rates and charges from 'Loudon to the various towns and places on their lines. The, application by the Mansion House Association affects every trader on the Great Western system, but for tho purposes of this preliminary application rtam prii.cipil towns wore cited, among- them Bath and Bristol, Exeter, Cardiff, and in another I branch of the company's system, the city of Hereford These places cover the extremes of the lines, and thereby comprise the whole of the company's lines in respect of their rates and charges. Sir Richard Webster, Q.C., M.P.. with Mr. Cripps, Q.C.. and Mr. Ernest Moon apiiearcd for the company; Mr. Balfour Browne. Q.C., and Mr. Whitehead were fur the MaiUtiou House Association.—Sir H. Webster said this wa-s an application by way of appeal from a decision for the registrar declining to ve the company particulars of complaints as to rates. The application by the Mansion Hr use Association against the company con- tained seven paragraphs, and what the company asked for was rliat the names of the traders com- plaining should 11(" furnished by the association as representing those traders.—After a long dis- cussion the President pointed oui that the diffi- culty was that the Commission might be called upon tj inquire irto thousands of issues p* to the rates charged under 'he different clauses. I He e-tme to the conclusion, however, that- the applioation must be dismissed, and if Mr. Hal- four Browne, at the hearing of the application, should cross-examine any of the witnesses, it might then be considered whether he should be tied down to a reasonable number of iferticubrs. —The appl "cation of the railway company was dismissed, and, the point being one of great importance, leave to appeal was granted.

THE ELBE DISASTER. DIVING OPERATIONS ARRANGED. A MELANCHOLY INCIDENT. The Berlin correspondent of the "Observer" sa,y-; ,It has been decided that, in spite of all difficulties the wreok of the Elbe shall be examined. The North German Lloyd Com- pany has engaged three German, three English, and two French divers for the operation. The I main purpose of the attempt is to recover tJle. valuable postal jwoperties which went down with I the ill-fated steamc It is estimated that these represent a sum of no less than £ 18,000 alone. The work will last about eight days. A sum of 10,000 marks has been allotted for prizes for finding money and other valuable* in the wreck. The sea. ia, however, still too stormy for diving. A {PATHETIC INCIDENT. A gentleman arrived at Nordenham by the steamer Ems who lost his wifw and three chil- dren in the Elbe. A curious incident marked his homeward pa.wsagt>. At; his request the ¡ captain of tho Ems slowed down on passing the place of the eatastroph^ and the bereaved pas- senger threw overboard a large wreatii winch, to ensure its sinking had been weighted with lead. The RoyaJ Orchestra, under Dr. Muck: the Royal Cathedral Choir, under Professor Bccker, I and Fran Ka.tharina Klafsky, of^ tlw City Theatre, Hamburg, gave a splendid concert on Saturday evening in tb« new Reichstag Palace for the l»enefit of the wives, children, and rela- tives of the vie time of the catastrophe. MORE BODIES RECOVERED. One of the Folkestone fishing-boats, on arriv- ing at port on Saturday, reported pioking up the body of a man wearing an Elbe life-belt.
