DEATH CAUSED BY JUG. The circumstances of a curious accident with a, fatal result were described at West- minster Coroner's Court on Saturday, when an inquest was held on Lily Murphy, aged forty-six,, of Sessborough-place, Pimlico. It appeared that the woman stumbled over a log of wood and broke a jug which she was carrying. A piece of the jug inflicted a wound over four and a half inches long in her right arm. The wound bled copiously, and she was removed in a state of collapse to St. George's Hospital, where she died from shock, following excessive hemorrhage. A verdict of "Accidental death" was re- corded.

HOUSE OF COMMONS RAID. I 116 PERSONS ARRESTED. — As previously advertised, a raid, organised by the ruUitant- section of the Suffragists, was made upon.he House of Commons on Tuesday even- ing, and resulted in a great deal of disturbance. much hard work for the police, and 116 arrest* of persons who took part in the raid. As a preliminary, a meeting was held at Cas. ton Hall. Mrs. Pethick Lawrence presided, beirig supported by Mrs. and Miss Pankhurst and the rest of the deputation. Mrs. Lawrence, who spoke with a good deal of feeling, begged no one. tn hinder the deputation on its departure, and exhorted an present to preserve throe-minutes' silence after the deputa- tion had left. The deputation then, headed by .t'ankhurst, marched into Victoria-street. Enormous crowds had gathered, and there was much disorder. The police admitted the deputation through the cordon outside the Broad Sanctuary and conducted it to St. Stephen's entrance. Inspec- tor Scantlehury here handed Mrs. Pankhursfc a letter from the Prime Minister expressing his regret at his inability to receive the members of the deputation. "I refuse to accept this letter," said Mrs. Fankhurst after perusing it, "and I stand upon my rights as a subject of the King to enter the o House of CmmnOJJK" Mrs. Pankhurst and her companions refused to leave. The deputation commenced struggling 1 with the police, and Mrs. Pankhurst gave In- spector Jarvis a smart smack in the face. Eventually the members of the deputation were all arrested and led from the square. Meanwhile, around every quarter of Parlia- I ment Square individual Suffragettes struggled j with the police and were arrested, followed by I cheering and jeering crowds. There was a dangerous element of roughness apparent in certain sections of the crowd, which in many places was of the lowest and least de- sirable description. Stones were thrown, win- dows smashed, and more arrests were made. Two men and one woman were injured. Through- out the evening, under most trying circum- stances, the police preserved wonderful good temper and discretion. One party of attackers were discovered in Westminster Abbey grounds, and there was an exciting chase of them for about a hundred yards, the pursued women screaming loudly. Shortly after nine o'clock a man in the Cen- tral Hall of the House of Commons shouted out "The women of England are clamouring for He got no further. Bystanders seized him and hustled him out into St. Stephen's Hall, where he was handed over to the police. Stones wrapped in brown paper were thrown through the windows of Mr. McKenna's official residence in Downing-street, and windows in the Home Office, the Privy Council Office, and the Treasury Office were also broken. j| It is alleged that while the mounted police fl| were assisting in arresting some Suffragettes |B a'man in the crowd injured a horse with a pocket 1 knife and made his escape. m Several constables were knocked down in the jl struggle. One was rendered semi-unconscious. fl

CANADIAN IMMIGRATION. Plans are approaching completion for thtt settlement of a large number of British emi- grants upon a large. tract of land in Alberta, on the Canadian Pacific Railway. This new scheme is in continuance of the experiment which has turned out successfully near Prince Albert in the Saskatchewan district, where some thirty colonists have succeeded in proving that under reasonable conditions it is possible to obtain for a man and his family a comfortable living upon a comparritivcly small plot of ground. The scheme as yet is only in its experimental stages, but the amount of land which has been offered to the Salvation Army by the Canadian Pacific Railway Company is almost unlimited, and as time goes on it is intended to establish another colony, probably in British Columbia, and also to facilitate the taking" up of vacant farms on the Atlantic side by selected colonists. The proposal is but a section of a great idea. of populating the vast stretches of country in Canada, particularly in the West.

CALLOUS TAXI PASSENGERS. At an inquest at Westminster on Tuesday respecting the death of Mr. Walter Bayes, aged 77, an artist, who was killed by being knoeKed down by a motor-cab, it was t d that when the accident occurred the ;"vis „ s in the cab got out and walked away wtho i paying their fare. One of them remark 1 that it "was a nuisance." The driver said thnr he ran after the passengers, but they declined to give their names. The Coroner said that these people might con- gratulate themselves, af, all events, upon the fact that they had bilked the cabman. The jury returned a verdict of "Accidental dath," and exonerated the driver from blame.

OUR LONDON LETTER. [From Our Special Correspondent.) Th-ere is a general agreement that Mr. I terbert Samuel thoroughly deserves his pro- 1 tiio'.ion to Cabinet rank. Though cccapara- lively a young member-he first sat in thss i He use of Commons in 1902—his abilities ha ve been long recognised, and since he became a Minister he has developed into a debater oi the front rank. He is one of those 1 Ministers who make no enemies, and an gratulations upon his appointment from all parties in the Com norst. VI. Samuel's most notable achievement so has been the piloting- of the Children' Bill through the House. I The resignations of Lord Fitzmaurice zir, di Mr.. Buchanan have come at an awkward time for the Government, arid tbi-Y can. ill spare Lord Fitzmaurice from the Iliyase o.f Lords. At the same time there does not j .-appear to be any ground at all for the rumour that dissatisfaction with the Binlg-et had anything at all to do with his reaigfna- tion, or that of Mr. Buchanan from the TJnder-Seoretaryship for India. Ill-health is ,the reason given for both in the official com- raunication, and it is no doubt the true reason. Mr. Buchanan has been absent from his place for some months, and Lord Fitz- maurice, who is the brother of the Marquis of Lansdowne, has been suffering considerably during the last few weeks, and his medical advisers have ordered him complete rest. The Master <of Elibank, who has been the Scot- tish Whip, goes to the India Office to succeed .Mr. Buchanan. A good many new peerages have been (Created since the present Government took office at the end of 1905, a fact of which they have been not infrequently reminded when the question of U ending or mending" the House of Lords has been mooted. The latest- list of honours, however, contains no names rof new peers, but a multitude of smaller honours, conferred as rewards for party or public service. Since the stage began, to figure in these periodical lists it has been merely a question of time before a knight- hood would be offered to Mr. Tree, and the enthusiastic reception which the popular ;aetor-manager received when he appeared on the.stage at his splendid theatre on the even- ing of the day of the announcement leaves no doubt of the public opinion that the honour was richly merited. Journalism has several representatives in the list, on" of whom, Mr. H. W. Lucy, the famous Gallery "hand," is almost a national institution. In the last few years the great railway companies carrying suburban trafiic have been hard hit by the competition of trains and motor-'buses, and every year the direct tors have had to deplore a loss of revenue 'rom this cause. Rather late in the day, the Great Eastern, who" are perhaps the greatest -Sufferers, are taking steps to try to stop the decline in passengers and revenue and to induce some of those who have left the trais .for the tram to come back again. The method they ai-e adopting is the obvious one of reducing fares so as to compare more favourably with those charged by the tram- ways and the 'bus companies. There are, of course, other things besides cheaper fares which tell in favour of trams. There is a more frequent service, for one thing, and the ears pick up and set down passengers nearer to their residences than any railway can do- But the railways travel faster, and. the travelling is more comfortable—except wen fifteen passengers are crammed into a com- partment designed to carry ten or so. Be- sides reducing fares, the Great Eastern are going to try what can be done by a more frequent service between certain points, and it is possible that these improvements may get back for them some of the traffic which they have lost. The new Victoria and Albert Museum which the Ring opened at South Kensington on Saturday has cost a million plillnda to build, and it is by a long way the most im- posing building among the museums of London. Its construction has been in pro- gress since the late Queen Victoria per- formed her last public act of laying the foundation stone inst over ten years ago. The style of architecture is "a free Renais- sance," that being' the style which admits of the introduction of the largest amount of window-space—an important consideration in the case of a museum. The interior decoration of the huge pile-it contains a mile of galleries, and the courts cover an acre and a half—is superb. Some of the col- lections are already in place, but as the re- moval has only been in progress since the be- ginning of the year, there is still a great deal to be done. When this work is completed the treasures of the Museum will be magnifi- cently housed, and the plan of arrangement will enable them to be viewed by the public to much greater advantage than hitherto, and the Museum will certainly take its place;, as one of the greatest attractions of London. Few members of Parliament were more popular with their fellows than Sir Alfreii Jaeoby, whose death took plaee -last w«ek- His place in the affections of members of fhg i House of Commons W..3 secure, for he had found his way to their hearts through fcfte dining-room, and that way, as the cj nits .'?! us, is alwitys t-he surest road to the heart of an Englishman. As Chairman of the Kitchen Committee, Sir Alfred made many improve- ments and innovations which contributed to the comfort and satisfaction of hungry and thirsty legislators. He took his duties seriously, but he had a sense of humour which enabled him to amuse the House with his answers to questions upon the quality of Whisky, the price of strawberries, or the age of a spring chicken. Colonel Loekvmod, wltv* has been acting for Sir Alfred lately, is lik, him in that respect, as was proved when he announced recently that in consequence of lite .w taxation a halfpenny would tm gat on the price of a glass of whisky, but that member- could get over the difficulty of the hai-penny by ordering two glasses instead of one. One of the most important of the inin subjects which have been discussed at the Imperial Press Conference is the charge made by the cable companies for Press messages. The high rates have made it nexi to impossible for any but news of the very greatest importance to be cabled at anything like adequate length, and awkward misunder- standings have often arisen between the Mother Country and the Dominions owing to a, condensed report of a speech, or a sentence or two torn from the context, beiLg Sashed beyond the seas. An announcement of the I utmost importance was made at one of the final meetings of the Conference, to the effect that the Pacific Cable Board has agreed to reduce by one-half its charges for Press messages, while New Zealand, and probably Australia also, will do the same in regard to their terminal charges. The most interesting announcement, however, was made by Ni r. Marconi, who as good as promised wireless communication between this country and Canada within a few months at the rate of twopence per word. A. E. M.

CAREER OF CRIME. GeHge Carter, alias Curtis, 38, who at Bed- ford Quarter Sessions on Tuesday was ordered I eighteen months' hard labour for stealing a bicycJe, has an amazing record of crime. In April, 1907, a warrant was issued for his arrest for deserting his wife and four children. The following month, it was stated, he made the acquaintance of Miss Cheeseman at Guild- ford, and proposed marriage. He was accepted, but absconded with £130, which he obtained from her. He went to Bath, and, representing himself as .i de tect, ve, obtained clothes and then went oN on a bicycle. At Bridgwater he lodged at the White Hart, 9 1 in the name of Arthur Scott. He talked about purchasing the hotel, and entered into negotia- tions with some local agents. He borrowed money from the landlord, paid £ 14 10s. into a Bridgwater bank, and obtained a book of twelve cheques. He altered the amount shown to his credit in the paying-in book from £ 4 10s. to £ 114, and altered the name from Arthur Scott to Arthur Weston. At Liskeard, in the next month, Carter was introduced to a magistrate, who cashed a I cheque for him, which was dishonoured. The I same month he was at Falmouth, where he ¡ passed two worthless cheques.. After doing a similar thing at Weymouth he went to Clacton-on-Sea, and victimised Mr. George Carrington, whose cousin he claimed to [ boo At Brightlingsea he cashed two worthless c At Doncnster Curtis joined the Liberal Club, and after disposing of a hired bicycle, went to StraJford-on-Avon, and introduced himself to I the Liberal agent as a member of the Doncaster Club. and rfiend his services as canvasser for I the Liberal candidate for Parliament at the c-lection then in progress. He was supplied I with a bicycle, and then absconded. TS

J REMAHKABLE CAB FATALITY. j An inquiry was conducted at Westminster on Tuesday with reference to the death of Mrs. < Florence Elizabeth Mary Gibbs, aged 45, of Broekley, wife of an inspector of works in the City of London Health Department. On Friday afternoon she, with two lady friends, took a four-wheeled cab for the purpose of attending a reception. The vehicle was pro- ceeding along Park-lane, and was about to turn into Hertford-street, when the horse suddenly bolted, and, returning to Piccadilly, crashed into the railings of the Green Park. The cab was smashed, and the horse had to be killed, but the cabman was only slightly hurt, while her lady friends escaped uninjured. Singularly enough, neither of these ladies knew how or when Mrs. Gibbs left the cab, but it was evi- dents frem marks found in Park-lane that she jumped out opposite No. 7. Mrs. Gibbs died in St. George's Hospital shortly after her ad- mission from the effects of a fractured skull. The coroner observed that it was one of the most remarkable accidents he had ever heard of. The jury returned a verdict of H Accidental death," and exonerated the driver.

FIRE CAUSKD BY DOG. 1 Two remarkable stories of dogs are related in connection with recent outbreaks of fire. In the first incident the animal met a painful death. A Kingstown (Co. Dublin) gardener had washed his dog with paraffin, and as it basked before the fire a spark set its coat alight. The poor creature fled in terror to a store room, where it ignited a quantity of inflammable matter. In a few moments the fire rot beyond control, and threatened the lives of three other families in the house. Before the fire brigade arrived the place was gutted, and though none of the (ecu- pants were injured, very little furniture was saved. The second story concerns a fire at Norman- ton, where John Henry Adams, the caretaker of the town club, with his wife and child, would have been suffocated early on Tuesday morning but for the alarm given by the howling of their j pet dog in a burning store room. M Attracted by the dog, a police officer broke 1 open three locked doors and went through th8 flames to rescue the three human occupants, the dog being found half dead endeavouring to get air at the partially raised window.

Eight brilliants were sold in Paris for £ 40,324. The most important of the gems, known as the Blue Hope diamond, was knocked down to & local dealer for L- 16,000. It had been expected to fetch £ 60,000.
