THE LATEST MOTOR RECORD. I Motor records come and go, but soon it seems that the rock bottom must be reached. However, in Germany on the new electric railway they have touched the terrific speed of 140 miles an hour; and it is possible that the foolhardy motorist will try eventually to emulate this achievement on the road, despite the fact that it is reported to have been a most uncomfortable and unpleasant sensation. The new motor record, which was only over a kilometre, quite pales beside the other, as it was jnst under 85 mites an hour-fast enough in all conl-ei ence, avid too fast ever to be practicable on the open road. This remarkable time was set up by the Hon. C. S. Bolls at Welbeck, where he covered the HOD, C. S. Rolls on his Record-breaking more. nioasared kilometre in 26 2.5 seconds. lIe was driving astiange-looking torpedo-shaped car made by the Mors Company, and its horse-power was lIO. Mr Rolls is well known as one of the most during and skilful drivers in England or on the Continent, and he has several times set up records,only to bava them taken down by equally adventurous spirits. So it is quite likely that within a short time a fifth of a second will be knocked off his time, and then Mr Rolls will again be on the warpath in search of an even more wonderful record,

STRUGGLE WITH A MADMAN. Details transpired on Saturday of a savage attack upon a Leicestershire doctor. Dr. Garfitt, of Kirby Maxloe, was with his wife spending Friday evening at a friend's house, when Albert Vickley Bishop, clerk, of Glenfield, who had been sent on from the doctor's own residence, asked to see him. Dr. Gartitt had no sooner appeared than Rishop seized him by the throat and dragged him into the garden, where a desperate struggle took place. Eventually Dr. Gartitt overpowered the man, and be was conveyed to Leicester, where on Saturday two magistrates certified him as insane. Dr. Gartitt bad recently to certify a. near relative of the man as a lunatic, and this was doubtless the motive of the attack. "PQ&.

1 THE PROTESTANT ALLIANCE. I i AUTUMNAL CONGRESS AT CARDIFF. I Reception at the Mansion House. The Protestant Alliance, the largest and oldest organisation of its kind in the kingdom, estab- lished by the late Lord Sbaftesbury 51 years ago, to uphold the principles of the Reformation in England, and to counteract the spread of Rationalism, Ritualism, and Romanism, is this week holding its first autumnal congress in Car- diff. Hitherto the Alliance has confined its annual demonstrations to the well-known May meetings at Queen s Hall, and the autumnal con- ference is a new departure, resolved upon owing to the increasing spread of Romanism through- out the kingdom. The Alliance has hitherto been regarded as more or leas a Church of England association, but its members include the leading members of the Free Churches, and it was largely with the idea of dispelling the general impression as to its Church of England character that the strong Nonconformist centre of Cardiff has been selected for this week's gathering. The congress proceedings were initiated on Monday evening by a reception given at the Mansion House to the principal visitors and their hosts by the Mayor and Mayoress (Aid. Ed. and Mrs Thomas), and a large number accepted the invitations issued. The attendance included the Rev. Chas. Stirling, M.A., representative of the London committee Rev. E. Mansel Towns- hend, M.A., rector of Llanvable, near Aber- gavenny Rev. Principal and Mrs Edwards, Mr Richard Cory, Rev. Dr. and Mrs W. C. Minifie, Newport; Rev. J. Tuckwell, London, Mrs Fennell, Newport Mr Edwyn Cooke, New- port Mr D. Christopher Williams, Maesteg Rev. Dr. and Mrs Pugh, Mrs Chas. Davjea, and others. Music was supplied by the members of the Cardiff BJae Ribbon Society, the vocalists being Miss Lizzie Pugh, Miss Neta Morgan, Mr W. E. Carston, and Mr J. F. Proud. In proposing a vote of thanks to his Wor- ship, the Rev. Charles Stirling—who is almost the only original member of the Alliance— declared that Protestantism was in these days at a discount. Tremendous inroads of Romanism were to be witnessed on all hands. Protestants found that their land was being taken from them piecemeal, and Romish orders, cast out by the very sensible French Government, were being received by the less sensible English people, who Beemed imperfectly to realise or unable to realise the momentous issues at stake. The influence of Rome was now so widespread that people seemed ashamed to stand up to speak on behalf of the Protestant religion, with which were intimately connected the liberties of England. By sap and mine, carried on all over the land, especially in connection with the Church of England, and very largely also, j he was sorry to say, in connection with Non- conformity, Protestant principles were to a very, large extent being abandoned, and there was a' tendency to go back to that superstition and idolatry from which at the Reformation they thought they were entirely saved, (Hear, hear.) Rev. Principal Edwards, who seconded, com- plimented the Mayor upon the exceedingly happy I manner in which he had got through his yestx of office. No Mayor of Cardiff had ever done better. (Hear, hear.) The vote was carried. The Dangers of the Day." "Tbe Dangers of the Day" formed the sub- ject of the opening conference of the Protestant I Alliance autumnal congress at Cory Memorial I Hall, Cardiff, on Tuesday morning. The weather was wet and stormy, and the attendance was ¡ consequently very small. The Rev. James Baillie, Cardiff, who presided, said they were not I at all wishful to interfere with the worship of the Roman Catholics. The endowment of the I Catholic schoolsout of the rates and the immense j influx to England and Wales of foreign monks had greatly accelerated the power for pro- I selytising. The Catholics claimed for their in- j stitutions a certain immunity from inspection which ProtestantB resented. Freedom was j always curtailed under the power of the priest. The Rev. J. Tuckwell, M.R.A.S., in an address on "RationalIsm." said it wf.s penetrating the I churches and theological colleges, and under- mining the steadfastness and strength of Eng- lish Protestantism. They knew what Romanism was, and that its purpose was to keep the people 1 in darkness. Rationalism was the more danger- I ous and subtle foe, bpt it was as impossible for I' one to help human nature to higher levels of thought and life and character as the other. The Bible was not contrary to reason—there was no antagonism between revelation and reason. Rationalism t It was a misappropriated term < He (Mr Tuokwell) "Lnd those about him were better rationalists than the infidels, atheists, and agnostics. It had been commonly aupposed l that there was an antagonism between modern I Christianity and science, but science, treated I properly, was a ministering handmaid to the I Christian religion. He challenged the world to find a single mistake in the first chapter of i Genesis. It was written before geology or natural history were studied, before Laplace I formulated the nebula of hypothesis, and yet it was in strict accordance with every accredited fact. Why ? Because it was written under Divine inspiration. Mr Walter Walsh, F.P.His.S., author of The Recent History of the Oxford Movement," said the evilscomplaine] of by the Rev. Mr Tuckwell extended to the Church of England and tbe FrerChurches. He had a very painful proof j of it a few years ago, when a sermon at St. Luke's, j Berwick-street, London, opened with You must get rid of your old-fashioned notions about the Bible. People eay it is Infallible; it is nothing of the kind; it is full of blunders," This same; preacher also said, We are told there was a Re- j surrection. So there was, but it was only in the imagination of the Apostles." He (Mr Walsh) published the statements, which were not made by a Ritualist, but by a Protestant. Mr Walsh, then gave an address on Ritualism. He first dealt with the dangers which arose from the way in which the Bible was treated by the Ritualists, the ecclesiastical burglars, who were responsible for tbe discord and division in the Church of England. Another danger arose from the con- 1 fessional and idolatry iu the English Church, as shown in the adoration of the sacrament, the sacrifice of the I mass, invocation and worship of saints, and the setting up of images. Idolatry more gross did not exist among the Hottentots than among the laity and clergy of the Church of England, and they had this idolatry in perhaps a dozen churches in Cardiff, where it was especially dan- gerou8. The bishops enjoyed their own privi- leges, and were content to cut off a few boughs from the Ritualistic tree but they left the tree standing. As Protestants, however: they would have that tree uprooted and thrown into the Pope's weed garden. Ritualism was dangerous because it gave rise to superstition and anarchy in the Church, every member being a law unto himself. It was also dangerous to the children, as evidenced by the Education Act. The Chairman said that even the Pope himself had to confess, but the Ritualistic clergyman was not necessarily 'bound to confess to anybody. In the afternoon Dr. Minifie (deputation secre- tary), in the absence of the Rev. C. H. Spurgeon, preached the congress sermon, PUBLIC MEETING. Councillor Robert Bird, J.P., piesided over a public meeting at the Cory Hall in the evening, and was supported by Mr Richard Cory, J.P., Principal Edwards, and others. The Chairman expressed sympathy with the aims of the Protes- tant Alliance and his readiness to assist Protes- tantism. The Rev. T. J. Longhurst (Weston-euper- Mare), in an address on The Bible and the Priest," said the New Testament particularly did not recognise the priest in any official or ex. clusive sense. If Christianity needed any priests Jesus would have appointed them, aud defined their/ functions and position in the Ohuich beyond all controversy; but He had done no such thing. The most expansive and conquering periods of the Christian Church, as well as the purest and most spiritual.were the first 200 years of its existance, when there was no official atJd organised priesthood. The third century was a period of decline it was then that priesthood arose. The fourth and fifth centuries were periods of scandalous vice it was then that priesthood becamedomioant, Theirschools should never pass permanently into the hands of men who set the authority of church, or catechism, or creed above the supreme authority of the Word of God—(applause)—and so gradually substitute in those schools the priest for the Bible. (Ap- plause.) They had again to fight the battle of the Reformation. Mr Walter Walsh delivered an address on The Jesuits; their Treasonable History in Britain." He said that all the old bad prin- ciples of Jesuitism were revived in the foreign monks who were jupt now settling down in Eng- land and Wales. As Protestants they were quite willing to give civil and religious liberty to all Roman Catholics, but they must be careful not to give political liberty to men who would use their power to rob Protestants of their liberty. (Applause.) The Rev. C. H. H. Wright, D.D., Ph.D. (London), said he" was conscious of a great change in the attitude of a large number of pro- fessedly Christian people towards the Bible. This was because the Bible was not read as much now by ordinary people, and because it ceased to form that substantial part of education which it did half a century ago. The teaching of the Bible should be left more to the parent and less to the teacher. (Hear, hear.) Protestantism was faced with the perils of indolence and ignor- ance, and it was time that Protestants bestirred themselves. During the evening the Cardiff Bice Ribbon Choir rendered selections of music. RITUALISM AND PRIESTCRAFT. The New Jesuitical Danger. How our campaign against priestcraft and error may be improved was the discussion at the breakfast-conference of the Protestant Alliance at the Y.M.C.A., Cardiff, on Wednesday morning. The chairman (Rev. Charles Stirling) said that Romanismiand idolatry were insepar- able. The Pope, stepping into the power of the ancient Roman Emperor, made religion a means to an end, and the confessional was his greatest instrument. Papacy had sway in the House of Lords and Parliament; shortly after the Corona- tion the King and Queen paid a complimentary visit to an institution founded by the evicted i?rench Jesuits, and since then the King had been received in audience by the Pope. Again, | there were 80 Irish Catholics in Parliament cap- able of bringing almost any Government to its knees. The Church of England, which was to be the means of saving tbe cotmtry, had become the chief instrument in the hands of the Pope for subjugating the country. And how was it that all over the land Nonconformists worked side by side with Catholics? Was it not that many were politicians first and Protestants afterwards ? Their forefathers dealt with Romanism br dis- enfranchising the Papists and passing penal laws which drew their teeth. It Popery remained unchecked civil and religious liberty^ would be stabbed to the heart. To check it might cost a civil war, but they should remembar that their forefathers suffered martyrdom. Dr. MacGregov said that Ritualism was Paga- nised Christianity. There was scarcely a Romanish doctrine that was not found in the Ritualistic party. If true evangelical Christian- ity failed in England it would fail in America. The Education Act was daring, deliberate, treacherous. Education in the United States was liberated from priestcraft. The Rev. Mansel Townshend emphasised the necessity of home education in the Bible, and then he put in a plea for Mr Balfour. He believed tbe Prime Minister intended to do some- thing for Protestants bv the Education Act, but his hands were tied, and he could not accom- plish all be would have liked to. Still, Mr Balfour had placed an enormous power in the hands of the laity, and especially of the educational authorities, to control secular education. If that power was wisely used tne authorities would soon put a stop to a large part of the Ritualistic and Romanish poison which was being instilled into the minds of people. The Chairman said it was a grief to him that the Liberals of South Monmouthshire had chosen a Catholic (Colonel Herbert) as their candidate. Instead of electing Catholics to Parliament they should get rid of them altogether. Dr. Wright stated that Romanism should be exposed from every Protestant pulpit. The Par- liamentary representation of Ireland was scan- dalous, ani if reduced to its proper proportion the Romanjshelement would be largely expunged. Mr Walter Walsh urged the better utilisation of the Press, and pointed out that Roman Catholics were spending large sums of money in training journalists. The Rev. J. Tuckwell thought that Bands of Hope and Christian Endeavour Societies should be used to tight Ritualism and Roman Catholi- cism. Principal Edwards said that where the Welsh language was strong Protestantism was safe. Romanism came in only with the English lan- guage, which was gradually getting the upper hand in some districts. Cardiff was a centre of Ritualism, and he was pained by the absence from their meetings of local clergymen. Sergeant Barker (Saltmead, Cardiff) considered it a serious omission that they did not expose that in which, as Protestants, they did not be- lieve. The children should be warned against Roman Catholicism and Ritualism. Mr Richard Cory expressed his antagonism to Home Rule. Every staunch Irish Protestant knew that Home Rule would soon be followed by Rome Rule. Many Nonconformists would go to gaol rather than pay an iniquitous school rate for the teaching of heresies of the worst kind. A Meeting for Women. A meeting for women at Cory Hall in the afternoon was presided over by the Rev. Charles Stirling, who said that in the Roman Catholic schools it was taught that he (the speaker) and his friends in the audienca were accursed here- tics. Some gentlemen in Cardiff who called themselves Roman Catholics had written a letter calling upon the voters to help in the municipal elections candidates who would support the in- terests of Rome. As Protestants and Noncon- formists they had allowed schools to be put upon a system which was antagonistic to civil and religious liberty. In a contemporary that morn- ing the Church of England and the Roman Catholic Church were placed together on a com- mou interest. It was an awful condition of things when men did that, as if there was not a tremendous and bloody record against the Church of Rome. as if that Church had not shed the blood of their forefathers like water. Had Rome ever retracted one single syllable of her persecuting tenets, or expressed sorrow for the abominations of which she was guilty in the past? The late Pope impressed upon hia priests the necessity of inculcating the teaching that heretics who were obdurate after two admonitions were to be handed over to a secular tribunal to be exter- minated. Was that charitable ? And yet Pro- testants were charged with oncharitableness be- cause they dared expose the wickedness of other people. Mr Walter Walsh said they should beware of every clergvman in Cardiff who called the com- munion table an altar. The Catholic priest was particularly anxious to get children to the con- fessional, which was the abomination of all abominations. The Rev. Mansel Townshend, referring to the foreign Jesuits now settled in this country, said a number of young girls were being inveigled into certain con- vents with the hope of sustenance and work, and kept there a.3 miserable, unhav-py, unpaid slaves, and without sufficient food. Was nothing to be done for such as these ? It was a, shame that the Unionist Government, which wielded a gigantic power, expunged from a useful measure a clause which wtuld have helped them to remedy this condition of things. That was done through cowardice, because the Government were threatened with the opposition of the Irish Nationalist party. In the present state of affairs they were liable to have their children kidnapped and imprisoned in convents which did not come under inspection. The Perils of Protestantism. "Protestantism, its principles, its perils, its prospects," was the subject of the speeches at a young people's demonstration at Cory Hall on Wednesday night. Councillor F. J. Beavan, J.P., who presided, said Protestant sentiment needed rousing in Cardiff(hear, hear) — where the spirit of sacerdotalism was almost rampant. The fascination of sacerdotalism seemed to ba\e created a spell in the town, and had been fatal to much of its Nonconformity and to much of its religion. Principal Edwards said they had little to fear from Popery pure and simple. The danger was from within the Church of England, and from such secret societies as the Holy Cross," formed to restore tbe confessional, the Order of Corporate Reunion, formed to have reunion with Rome, and the English Church Union. Lord Halifax, the head of that union, said, We wish for union with Rome. We wish for nothing so much." The English Church Union had a membership of over 4,000 clergymen of the so- called Reformed Protestant Church of England, and yet not one had raised bis voice against the sentiments of Lord Halifax. (Shame.) The Rev. J. Tuckwell. after replying to the criticisms of a local contemporary, said Pro- testants objected to paying money for Catholic schools to spread the detestable Roman Catholic doctrines among Protestant children. (Applause). The Rev. Dr. Minifie (Newport) said that Romanism, once kicked out of England's back- door, and now arrayed in the guise of Ritualism, was boldly walking up John Bull's front step and wiping its dirty boots on his best Axminster. It was time they again showed the intruder the back door. (Applause.) Ritualism was calling from the grave the ghastly superstitions of the past. Romanism was bent npon stamping out Protestantism. Protestants did not intend to be stamped out—(applause) —even though they were to be hung upon Mr Balfour's educational gallows and made to pay for the rope. Rome was taking large doses of Anglican cough- mixture manufactured by Lord Halifax and Co. (Laughter. I But Rome wa3 consumptive, and when the patient died he knew some one who would sing Praise God from whom all bless- ings flow — (applause)—and this was the epitaph be would write Here lies one of the greatest tyrants that ever cursed God's earth the foe of freedom, the enemy of education, the antagonist of righteousness, the murderer of countless men, women, and children, the master- niece of Satan. It's end was pieces." (Applause and laugbtei.)

THE LATE MR LECKY. A Favourite of Ireland. By the death of Mr W. H. Lecky Ireland loses the most eminent of her literary children, and one whom, perhaps, in her heart of hearts, she most respected and admired. His was a varied career-rather more strenuous, perhaps, than most people are wont to believe. Born near Dublin on March 26th, 1838, of an old landed family, he passed from Cheltenham to Trinity College, Dublin,where he graduated. His brilli- ant inttllect developed early-he had written The Rise and Influence of Rationalism in Europe before he was thirty, a masterly work, but scarcely with the elements of durability. The h History of Europoean Morals from Augustus to I The Mr W. H. Lecky. I Charlemagne followed., Under curious circum- II stances it was quoted in the House of Commons by Mr Samuel Smith, when the author was a member. Then came his great work, History of England in the Eighteenth Century (1878- 90), and his Democracy and Liberty (both works which will probably stand the test of time). As an historian, especially as an Irish historian, Mr Lecky is above all praise, in that he was scrupulously accurate and just, It should ever be recollected that all parties in Ireland spoke of his historical work with praise—surely a marvellous tribute. The closing years of his lite brought him full into the public gaze, for he entered Parliament in 1895, easily defeating a Conservative lawyer who stood against him. Probably his resolute anti-Home Rule attitude since 1886 won him his seat, till failing health drove him to retire early this year.

MRS DAY'S PRISON FARE. Her Diet and Literature. Mrs Frances Mary Day, who was sentenced to six months' hard labour at Exeter on Thursday last for cruelly ill-treating her little daughter, was medically examined in Exeter County Gaol on Monday with a view to ascertaining what class of labour should be assigned to her. It is under- stood that she is considered capable of perform- ing what is known as ordinary prison labour, and that she will be given task-work in the shape of knitting, sewing, &c., with an occasional turn at the laundry. This labour differs but slightly from that given to second division prisoners, but in the latter case there is no compulsion to perform the whole of a specific task. Her prison food this week consists of half a pint of porridge and four ounces of bread for breakfast, and the same for supper, with the addition of half a pint of cocoa. For dinner she is allowed half a pint of soup, two ounces of beef, and four ounces of potatoes, alternated with pud- ding, pea soup, and potatoes. Next week the gruel allowance will be increased to one pint. In tbe first two months the literature provided for her is confined to a prayer-book and hymn-book and an occasional tract. After that, if her behaviour is good, she may have a book from the prison library twice a week. She is described as bearing her imprisonment with sullen resignation. -U- U

Mr Yelverton, late Chief Justice of thebebamau, has been approached on the matter,and is proceeding at once to Great Wyrley to make further investi- gations.The chief points of the criticism which is directed against the case are, firstly, the summing-up of the preeiaing Judge,and,secondly, the ignoring of the strong evidence of an alibi which was tendered by the defence.

The Education Question. FREE OHURCH COUNCIL'S AIMS. We are authorised to state that the following is the scheme for national education approved by the Education Committee of the National Council of Evangelical Free Churches, of which it is complained an inaccurate version was published in a London morning paper on Mon- day 1. That the system of national education shall recognise only one type of public elemen- tary school, viz., schools provided and controlled by a public education authority. 2. That denominational school buildings, if re- quired and suitable for use as provided schools, may be rented or purchased for the purpose of elementary education. 3. That all schools maintained by public funds, whether by rates or taxes, shall be under the sole management and control of representatives appointed by the method of popular election. 4. That there shall be adequate provision for the training of all teachers of public elementary schools free from theological and ecclesiastical tests, and under the sole management and con- trol of the popularly-elected education authori- ties. 5. That existing training college buildings, if reauired and suitable, may be rented or pur- chased for the purpose of national training colleges. 6, That no ecclesiastical or theological tests shall be applied in the appointment of teachers of public schools or training colleges. 7. That no distinctively denominational teaching or formulary shall be given or used in public schools in school hours, but simple Biblical instruction maybe given according to a syllabus. Attendance at such instruction shall be subject to a conscience clause. 8. That the foregoing provisions shall also have reference to secondary education as far as they may be applicable. The Monmouthshit'e Scheme. The Provisional Education Committee appointed by the Monmouthahire County Coxncil sat at Newport on Monday to further consider the draft scheme under the Education Act for the county, the scheme being based upon the Welsh model scheme. Tbe committee fixed April 1st, 1904, as the appointed day," and agreed to recommend to the County Council that two directors of education be appointed, one for elementary education at a salary of X350 to 4450, and the other for secondary and technical educa- tion at a salary of iC450 per annum. The com- mittee also recommended the appointment of a finance clerk for the new Education Department of the county. MASS MEETING AT CARDIFF. Speech by the Rev. J. Hirst Hollowell. A weil attended meeting held under the auspices of the Grangetown Liberals was held at the Forward Movement Hall, Grangetown, on Tuesday evening. Ma George Dobson pre- sided, and was supported by the Rev. J. Hirst Hollowell, Councillors P. J. Beavan, S. Robiu- sou, John Jenkins, A. Sessions (Liberal can- didate for Grangetown), Mr J. E. Turner, the Rev. Watkiu Williams, and others. The pro- ceedings throughout were of the most enthu- siastic character, After the chairman's open- I ing address, which was of a rousing descriptian, the Rev. Watkin Williams moved a resolution thanking the Progressive members of the Car- diff Council for their stand in the interests of unsectarian education, an3 calling on all lovers of liberty and fairplay to secure the retara to the Council of the Progressive and Unsectarian I candidates. He urged that the question was the most important with which County Councils had to deal, and stigmatised the Educa- tion Act as an iniquitous measure. Councillor Sessions, in seconding, quoted statistics calculatej to show the hollowness and one-sidedness of the Education Act. The Rev. J. Hirst Hollowell declared at the outset that a Government that got up the Cocker ton judgment was the enemy of education. (Cheers.) In Wales 805 sectarian schools had been placed upon the rates of the Principality, while the management was left almost entirely in the hands of the sects that did not pay for the sup- port of the schools. Mr Sessions' opponent was raising the cry that the Cardiff Council had delayed in putting the Act into operation. Well, it was a very bad Act, and that being so, delay in putting it into operation was a very good thing. (Laughter.) Wales was getting under the Act in a very Celtic manner, and be hoped they would get quite under it. (Loud laughter.) Mr Dixon had told his bearers that in opposing Mr Sessions he (Mr Dixon) was standing irrespective of creed or party. (Laughter.) He (the speaker), did not see any substance in that confession, it was a kind of language of which he did not recognise the rtccuracy. The Bishop of Llaniafi at a recent diocesan conference had referred to the morals of Nonconformists. He itbe speaker) ventured to say that the code of morals of Dr. Clifford was as good as that of the Bishop of Llandaff; in fact, he should put it as being rather higher. (Cheers.) What about the morality of smuggling tho wear and tear amendment into the Education Act as the Bishop of Manchester did ? He ventured to say that a man with a delicate sense of honour would not have been connected with that operation. (Loud cheers.) Then, again, the Bishop of Llan- daff bad sneered at political Nonconformity. Why were they political ? It was because they as donconfonnists had to dissent from a political Church. (Loud cheers.) Proceeding, the speaker gave instances of the style of teaching which was often heard from Church people-teaebing for which Nonconformists were, under the Educa. tion Act, expected to pay. At Bradford they had to pay the salaries of teachers in St. Mary's Catholic Schools who were members of a Catholic brotherhood, who did not themselves receive the salary which was handed over to this Catholic brotherhood. (Hhame.) The speaker, in conclusion, delivered a telling and eloquent defence of the action of the passive resioters. On the motion of Councillor S. Robinson, seconded by Councillor J. Jenkins, a hearty vote of thanks was accorded the Rev. J. Hirst Hollo- well. The proceedings closed with a vote of thanks to the chairman.

The engine, of which a sketch is here presented,has iust been comphted at the Hoben- zollern works at Dnsseldorf, and is designed for shunting in explosive factories. Ia steal of carry- ing fire in its own boiler it is filled with steam from stationary boilers, and when so charged is capable of several hours' work. The first warm- ing up occupies half an hour, and subsequent re- charging can be done in a quarter of an hour. T^o Kevv Geiman Steam Engine, which haa no Pire. TLe appBMtos is SO simple that an unskilled work- man is able to look after it. The absence of fire in a place where dynamite or gunpowder is being handled is the reason for the invention of this tvpe of engine, which is known to engineers as the Lamm Franc system. It is said it costs just bait as much to work it as an ordinary steani locomotive.

By a Cardiff Solicitor Yonupter.-We have not the information you de. sire. Write to the respective offices for the pair- ticulyrs. There is no standing rule as to height. Trevethic.-Railway locomotives were attempted by Blankinsop (1811). Blackett (1812), Hedley (1813). Dods and Stephenson (1815), and others, but it was not till 1829, when the Liverpool and Manchester Railway was opened, toat the modern high-speed locomotive was used, and George Stcphenson'e Rocket was then run. Richard Trevethic in- vented a high-pressure steam engine and a road locomotive, and it was the idea of the latter that was afterwards adopted and developed by Stephen. son. South Wales and Ghamberlain's Fiscal I Fad. TO THE EDITOB. Sir,-The inquiry so far as the staple in. dustries of South Wales are concerned is pro- gressing most satisfactorily. 1. The tinplate authorities, much to Mr Chamberlain's] surprise, have proved that Free Trade, instead of raining the industry, has saved it. 2. The fact that our coal exports have doubled within so comparatively brief a period leads masters and men alike to cry Hands off," and to demand the removal of the coal tax, which in its incidence bears so unfairly on this district. 3. The iron and steel trade. A great deal ia made of the few works that have been closed down. What are the facts? Steel has been supplanting iron. In 1886 the make of puddlad bars was 1,616,701 tons in 1902 it waq, 988,278 tons, a decrease of 628,423 tons. But what of the steel trade ? In 1886 the make of open-hearth steel was 694,150 tons, whereas in 1902 it waa 3,083,288 tons, an increase of 2,389,138 tons. And what is still more remarkable, the profits of tha iron and steel trade, which the Protectionists tell us is going to the bad, we learn from tb« 46th report of the Commissioners of Inland Revenue that the actual profits of the iron and steel trade were 11,840,350 in 1896-97, compared with £ 5.380,418 in 1900-1 and X6,600,263 in 1901-2. Daring the last two years there have been profits hitherto unknown in these industries. But what of the dumping" that we bear so much of ? Last year we made 8i million tons of pig iron, but only a quarter of a million of pigs was imported. A large portion of this was from Sweden, a high quality, absolutely necessary for the manufacture of the best quahty steel, which we export to all parts of the world. Another largr portion, 155,595 tons, we imported at Ð 13s, whilst we exported over a million tons at E.3 4s 9d per ton. Bnt it is said we imported It million tons of iron and steel in various stages of manufacture. True, but it was used very largely for the manufacture of wire, tinplates, galvan- ised sheets, rivets. Ltc., and largely exported to all parts of the world, industries whieb de. pended to a great extent on this import of cheap material. It is necessary, as that great authority Sir John Kitson says, I I for the welfare of the iron and steel trade that we should be able to go into the cheapest markets for the necessary raw and semi-raw materials, and so furnish employ. ment for labour and return for capital." We agree with the editor of the "Spectator," who says the princely motto Wake up in our technical education and methods of manufactaea is a much nobler and worthier one for English- men than the craven Protect me, ob, protect me.' ~1 am, &c., LEWIS WILLIAMS.

PRINCESS LOUISE AND WELSH EDUCATION. H.R.H. Princess Louise of Schleswig- Holstein, who last week took so active a part in the promotion of tbe Welsh Industries Exhibi- tion, has just manifested the deep personal interest she feels in the progress of Welsh education by gr&ciouslv consenting to patronisa and formally open next summer the grand bazaaf then to be held in aid of the extensive bailding fund of the Abergele County School, the accom- modation of which is being practically doubled. This is the first of the county schools established under the Welsh Intermediate Education Act whose marked progress has necessitated such an extensive addition to the original school buildings. A novel feature in connectieu with the opening 'Say of the bazaar will be the performance, as a matinee, by the pupils of tho school of anew historical play "Caratacos." This play, baaed on the Roman conquest of Britain, has bean specially written for the occasion by Mr Beriah G.
