GOING FOR A HOLIDAY.
lBI COSMOS.] GOING FOR A HOLIDAY. THERE was nothing doing on 'Change yesterday. Let's have a holiday. And so 3ay all of us. This is seriously thought of. At the meeting of the Chamber of Com- merce to-day a resolution is to be proposed to shut up 'Change for a week. If the colliers have not gone in by this time, to extend it to a fortnight. It is not at all improbable that this motion will be carried unanimously. It is obviously not much good to toil down to the docks 2very morning in this hot weather if there is nothing to be done. Shijis can- not be loaded without coal, and there is no need for them to come here. Already some of them have been laid up on the mud, and the crews paid off. Even if a cargo can be obtained bunkers are at a fabulous price, iiid with the prevalence of low freights it is impossible to make a voyage pay. On Change yesterday a small parcel of coal fetched 25s per ton. There is a story to the effect that one captain, Rfter failing to obtain a sufficient quantity of patent fuel, filled up with pitwood. Now the latter will not burn unless it be split, for the bark chars and protects the wood. If this story be true it is another example of the ill wind. Pitwood for the last eighteen months has been sold practically at a loss. Nevertheless, I should say that pitwood is bearer than coal at nearly any price. But !f you cannot obtain the latter, it is obvious you must have something. Perhaps this is dodge to cover a breakage into cargo. z, or When they get well to sea it will be dis- covered that pitwood will not burn, and so he captain will be forced to levy on the freight.
THE WELSH UNIVERSITY.
THE WELSH UNIVERSITY. THE charter of the proposed Welsh University is now before Parliament. The Question to be decided is whether it shall Have the power to grant degrees only to those who attend its classes, or shall it extend its sphere and permit outsiders to ass its examinations. This question should found very simple. The Welsh University will only do its duty by "Making some recognition of the attain- ments of Welsh scholars even when ^hey have not attended college lectures. 6ut it cannot possibly matter to the University so long as its examinations are passed. If it has degrees to bestow, those 'ho can acquit themselves best at the nrdeal will be most valuable to the institu- tion. If it can attract scholars who will be an ornament to the college—and this entirely depends upon the examination why should the University limit its degrees to those who have attended its lectures ? A man from anywhere who makes a mark in ibe world with a Welsh degree will be t credit and an advertisement to the Uni- versity. Nobody will inquire where he was tidueated, but will attribute his attainments 1*0 Wale3.

A WELSH PHILANTHROPIST.
A WELSH PHILANTHROPIST. By the death of Mr Sii aner the Welsh have suffered a serious losa. Ho took a great interest in higher edlT ation in the Princi- pality, and was one of the founders of the Aberystwyth Umversl y College, as well as a life governor. He died in the fulness of years, being close fkpoii 80. He was especially generous with his money towards the various o,iiii -.#ions that benefited his country, and religious, philanthropic, and Political circles among the Welsh in ondon, and here will be the poorer by his death.
A SNAKE STORY.
A SNAKE STORY. IT is true that animals commit suicide, but the story which comes from the Lick Obser- vatory, in America, is on the face of it absurd. It happened in 1888, but as it is in answer to a question which was put in the pages of a magazine two or three weeks ago, the lapse of time is explained. The rattle- snake was three feet long. It had taken refuge under the dome of the equatorial telescope at Lick, and was seized by the professor on duty with a pair of blacksmith's tongs, and with the help of an assistant dropped into a large jar of water. They attempted to drown the animal by in- verting the jar at intervals. At last the snake, instead of rising, as it had always done, to the surface, finding its struggles to be in vain, deliberately curved its neck and struck its fangs deep into its body. There was no flurry or excitement; it was no acci- dent it had all the appearance ofacalm, de- liberate act, and thecreature put and end to itself with the self-possession of an old Roman. Of course from this narrative it must be presumed that the snake killed itself. But how was it to do so with its fangs ? Every- one knows that the poison of a snake is inocuous to itself, and the mere insertion of the fangs would bring about no result. It is more lik-ily that the snake became deli- rious, and inflicted the wound upon itself, in the idea that it was attacking an enemy.
THE CUCKOO AND ITS HABITS.
THE CUCKOO AND ITS HABITS. THE Rector of Cheltenham, the venerable and much-respected Canon Bell, has written to the Spectator about the habits of the cuckoo. He asks whether it is a common occurrence for the bird to frequent the neighbourhood of towns. 1 should say yes, for I have seen it many tunes close into Cardiff. Possibly it does not deposit its eggs in the gardens, as it is said to do in Cheltenham, but then the Cardiff gardens are not so rural as those in the Gloucester watering-place. The old rhyme runs The cuckoo comes in Aprd, 1vr And sings in the month of May It gives us a tune in the middle of June, And then flies away. But this is not strictly the case. The old birds may fiy away in July, but the younger ones do not migrate until the end o ugus or the beginning of September.
IS IT BOUGH ON .THE AGRICULTURIST…
IS IT BOUGH ON .THE AGRICULTURIST ? PITY the poor farmer, or not, as you may view the case. Australia is sending hay to this country, and it is said that B7 per ton will pay for the export. The Journal gives the quantity of hay imported into the United Kingdom during July as 18,636 tons, whereas in the correspondma month of lasfc year the quantity was only 3,614 tons The difference is hardly less marked if a comparison be made between the seven months of the year which had passed when the return was made up and the first seven months of 1892. It shows a total importa- tion of 81,402 tons, against an importation of 29,680 tons. The ^agriculturist that was congratulating himself upon a full stockyard may well despair. As for those who have Jttle fodder—and they are many—perhaps l?y. may not be sorry that hay can be stained from foreign sources.
^ NOTHING TO I'O, PLENTY TO…
NOTHING TO I'O, PLENTY TO SAY, J-HK hot weather has been accountable for a disregard of appearance on 'Change. Men have discarded waistcoats, and ha\ e av environed their bowels with a sash, with the desire to hide the button on the trousers no less than to afford a support for these garments. One individual, more venturous ohan the rest, strolled on in an attire which was light in every sense of the word. He was greeted with the remark, Are you come to scare crows ?" No, was the pregnant answer, rooks." In the absence of business repartee is improving. "How do you find things?" was an innocent query under the circumstances. Oh, generally with my eyes," was the response. *'Well," asked another, "how are you getting on V By putting one foot before the other," was the reply. This is the effect, I suppose, of having nothing to do.

MR GLADSTONE AND THE LIBERATION…
MR GLADSTONE AND THE LIBERATION SOCIETY. We understand that the summary published on Tuesday morning of Mr Gladstone's letter to the Liberation Society in reply to their minute of the 9th inst. on the Disestablishment quest-ion does not convey sufficiently or correctly what the Prime Minister said. His letter was a private communi- I cation addressed to Mr J. Carvell Williams, M.P., honorary secretary of the society, in acknowledg- ing the receipt of the following miuute:—The committee viewed with satisfaction the introduction of the Bill to prevt-nfc the creation of new interests in Church of England offices in Wales, and the announcement of the intended introduction of a similar measure relat- ing to the Established Church of Scotland: regard- ing the action of the Government as an earnest of their intention to deal with. the question of Disestablishment in those countries at the earliest possible period. It having proved to be im- practicable to make progress with theweish, or to introduce the Scottish Suspensory Bill, the com- mittee now express the hope that, in lieu of merely Suspensory Bills, the Government will next Session promptly bring m measures of Disestablishment and j- Disendowment for both Wales and Scotland, They re- gard as specially urgent the demand of the people of the Principality for religious equality, by means of Disestablishment, an{j ara of opinion that neither the pledges of the Govern- ment, nor the just expectations of their supporters, will be fulfilled unless a measure for the purpose occupies such a position in the Ministerial programme for next Session as will enable th Government to carry it through all its stages l" the House of Commons. Inasmuch as the sup- porters of the English Establishment have, in the mteiest Ot uhat institution, resolved to make common cause with the upholders of State-Ghurchism in Wales and in Scotland and are preparing for unprecedented efforts in opposi- tion to the Government policy, it is imperatively necessary that there should be corresponding exertions on tne part of the advocates of religious equality in England; especially in view of an appeal to the constituencies on the question at the next Orenenu Election. Mr Carvell Williams will not at present publish Mr Gladstones letter, and perhaps not at all; but we are enabled to give the following extract from ,t, which coaveys the Premier's r71OD4tee,(luJestion before him by bociety Mr Gladstono thinks that, while the present st;rtin contiiitif,sl the time is not favour- able for deciding on the course to be pursued next Session (i.e. the Session of 1894). which will have to be considered as a whole. He recognises, however, that one question to be decided is whether the production of a complete Disestablishment measure will not be preferable Bill » re-'nfcroducti011 ot a Welsh Suspensory

-----..------------SAD END…
SAD END OF A MAGOR FARMER. At Newport Bankruptcy Court, on Tuesday, the UHicial Receiver referred to the death of Mr IaRc Lawrence, farmer, recently of Magor, and against whom bankruptcy proceedings 'had' been instituted. The deceased, who was well known at XSewport and Magor, some tune since left to go to St. Briavel'.s, and afterwards to Tewkesbury go to St. Briavcl',g, and afterwards to Tewkesbury where he failed in business, and his affairs went into liquidation. The debtor did not appear last week at Newport, and a warrant was ordered tor his apprehension as an absconding debtor. But at this time his body must have been lying on Brcderidge Common, as it presented all the appearance of having been there a fortnight or more. The Official Receiver informed the regis- trar of the farmer's end, and it was arranged that tl)e btrikrul)tcy proceedings should cease forth- with.

Day's business was exceptionally dull. Of actual news there was little, but bad June statement of Union Pacific, which had a depressing influence.

THE AFFAIRS OF THE CO-OPERATIVE…
THE AFFAIRS OF THE CO-OPERATIVE SOCIETY. ALLEGED MISMANAGEMENT. THE MANAGER'S HOUSE BESIEGED. STONE-THROWING BY THE MOB. Although the strikers' demonstration at Fern- dale passed over without r. mishap, there was on Tuesday an alarming riot in that town in connec- tion with the affairs of the Ferndale Co-operative Society. It has been rumoured for some time that the society was in serious difficulties, large liabilities having been discovered,of the existence of which the directors, it is alleged, had been previously ignorant. Rightly or wrongly, the shareholders saddle the resjionsibilihy for all this upon the manager, but it is only fair to him to point out that so far no criminal charge has been made against him, and that an effort made to secure a warrant for his arrest has been unsucoesdul for the want of sufficient evidence' to support such a proceeding. The society is now undergoing the process of liquidation, and their extensive premises in Ferndale have been closed. Such a failure in so small a community has naturally caused the most profound sensa- tion. Most of the workmen employed in the Ferndale pits were shareholders in t e concern some holding a single share of the value of JB5, and others interested to the extent of £50, 2100, and 2200. Cash deposits bearing nter est at five per cent. were also received by the society, in addition to the share capital of about £ 14-,000. The members numbered 1,448, and the deficit is variously estimated at between £ 6,000 and 29,000. No authoritative information can, however, be obtained just yet upon this point, as the society's books are now in the possession of Messrs D. Roberts and Sons, accountants, Cardiff, and the investIgation has not been concluded. It is certain, however, that nearly every household inFendale has been affected by the stoppage, for, counting shareholders, depositors, and members, those affected number, it is said, about 6,000. It is hoped that with careiul management the society can yet pay 20s in the JB, but at present there is a natural fear among the miners of the district > that their hard-earned money has all been lost. One poor woman declares she has loat over;6200, and from every' house come reports of serious losses supposed to have been sustained. It is a matter of no surprise under the circum- stances that the people of Ferndale are highly incensed. They will have it that the manager is at fault, and statements of a most sensational character have been openly circulated. The manager left the district for a couple of days a week or a fortnight ago, and then the rumour spread that he had absconded. He, however, returned, and up to Tuesday mbrning continued to reside among the Ferndala people. Last week, the rumour spread that the manager was about removing to Cardiff, there to conduct a business of his own. When Ijhis became known the excitement increased, and the enraged members vowed that he should not be allowed to take a scrap of furniture away with him. A close watch was kept day aud night upon his house, and the progress of the packing-up process inside was followed with interest. On Monday night two furniture vans from Cardiff appeared in the town—one belonging to Messrs Burrows and the other to the Messrs Perrin. This was the signal for aggres- sive operations. A huge crowd congregated around the manager's residence soon after mid- night, and kept their vigil through the weary hours I of the night. The crowd, strange to say, con- sisted mainly of women and children, and the exe- crations of the former were by no means pleasant to the ear, Soon after four o'clock on Tuesday morning the house was literally stormed. Showers of stones were hurled at it from all directions, and soon every window pane in the front of the building were smashed to pieces. Despite the close watch kept, the manager succeeded in making good his escape, for in the early hours before dawn he was met tramping along the road "J.direction of Pontypridd. Police-Sergeant Menhennick, fearing a riot, telephoned for assist- ance, and with the morning mail In- spector Davies and a force of nine men arrived on the scene from Porth. followed at nine o'clock by a body of 12 men from the Pontypridd Police-station. With such a display of force at command, the men in charge of the vans concluded that the removal of the furniture could be easily accom- plished. But the crowd, now reinforced by the miners. who. bad stopped work, had reached vast dimensions, and things looked decidedly threatening. The vans, which hitherto had stood by the Commercial Hotel, were now brought through the crowd, and placed in front of themanager's door, a force of three mounted constables clear- ing the way. A loud cry of exe- i burst forth, and in a moment the air became darkened with huge stones, which came flying from all directions. The poor horses received cruel b ows in this way, and several constables had their helmets knoeked off. The crowd gave a cheer and then the shower was repeated, the stone-throwers being for the most '?r''j^VOmen anc' children. Our representative, standing on the wall in front of the board schools, was in full view of the scene. The constables repeatedly plunged into the crowd in an attempt to catch the stone-throwers, but so well was the assault managed and so carefully were the offenders shielded that not a single capture was made. Supt. Jones, who was in charge of the police, had a conference with several of the directors of the society, and as a result resolved that in the excited state of the eople it would be exceedingly unwise and risky to make any further attempt to remove the goods, and the vans accordingly were ordered away, the crowd hailing the victory with a series of frantic cheers. We understand that proceedings will be taken at the Pontypridd County.court to-inor- row on behalf of the members with a view of ascertaining whether the manager can legally take away the furniture. The Ferndale people declare they should be sold for the benefit of the society.
TO THIC EDITOR.
TO THIC EDITOR. • 'T am very sorry tcfind by this evening's issue of the Echo that serious rioting has taken place at Ferndale. This, in the face of the demon- stration this morning, is apt to mislead public opinion, and I here desire to distinctly state that none of the visiting miners had any hand in it in fact, their conduct throughout was worthy of those who have had cultivation and education. Mr Superintendent Jones, who was present during the whole of the mass meeting at lerndale, will fully bear out my statement.—I am, &c., CHAIRMAN OF THE MASS MEETING. August 15th.

ANTICIPATIONS. The meeting on the Mandale Bottoms was commenced to-day in the most successful manner, and, with the exception of some heavy rain at the outset, the weather, if very hot, was pleasant, There was an immense attendance, eclipsing, it is said any previous meeting at thite venue. The Stockton Handicap fell to Enniskillen, a 5 to 1 chance the favourite. Chesterfield, running third, while Senaputty separated the pair. The other important race of the day was the Wynyard Plate, which fell to a moderately backed candidate in Ilium, who defeated the favourite, Gahngale, by three parts of a length. I fully expect the quality of the sport to be sustained to-morrow, and with two such events as the Hardwicke Stakes and the Great Northern Lager on the card, the racing will be full of interest, Some of the following mav lirove successful _n Mandale Selling Handicap—WHITE OOCKADE.

Buccaneer is to be sold at Doncaster without any reserve. Medicis, engaged in the Grand Prix de Deau- ville on Sunday next, was on Monday despatched to Fiance from Newmarket. Baron de Roth- schild's colt is very fit and well. The Queen of Italy, having a desire to improve the condition of the submerged tenth in the southern kingdom, is setting about the business in a practical way. That is to say, she is at. tempting to reform the- ragged little children of the gutter. They are to be rescued from the streets and taught some useful trade. The Scotch players engaged by Notts and th# Forest IT.C. have returned to Nottingham, and the recruits are expected this week. Collins (Newcastle West End) and Stewart (late Ever- ton) have arrived o join the Forest F.C., and practice begins in earnest by both teams this week. Ragimunde has grown into a nice horse, and should win one of his autumn engagements. Madame d'Albany is on the walking list, and the Manton two-year-okis are a very moderate lot. Ninety competitors started on Saturday evening in the great amateur cycle raca from Paris to Brussels, including a number of Belgians. One of the latter, a mason of Verviers, named Andre, carried off the prize, reaching the Belgian capita) at a quarter to six yesterday afternoon. He aGo complishea the journey in 19h. 55min. Admirers of Phocion for the St. Leger will not fail to remember how lucky John Watts has been with chance mounts in the great Yorkshire classic. Had it not been for the death of a relative of the Duke of Portland, Watts would, of course, have ridden Raeburn. Last year, when he rode La Fleche, Orme, in the same stable, was the most fancied, whilst two years before he bestrode Memoir, after once declaring for St. Serf, and, after having the choice of the two, only decided to ride the mare at the last moment. To this day Tom Loates thinks St. Serf would have won the race but for a scrimmage at the bend.

Among Read's, hits were eight 4's, two No. and three 2'8. liockwood made a few good hits, but at 456 he was finely caught and bowled by Giffen with the right liand. Jackson was loudly cheered en passing Stoddart's score. When Macgregor left Jackson was two short of his 100, and the greatest excitement prevailed as to his reaching the number. However, he settled the matter with a grand drive for four. Immediately afterwards he was run out, and the innings closed-at five past one. Altogether England were batting for seven hours, and Jackson's magnificent 103, which extended over two' hours and twenty minutes, included thirteen 4's. Giffen took seven wiekets for 128 runs. Australia went in at 1.25, Ban- nerma.ii aud Lyons facing Lockwood and Mold. Lyons was clean bowled at 30, Trott pulled a ball on to his wicket at 31, and one run later Bannerman was di^wssed. On resuming at 2 45 the attendance had increased to nearly 15,000. Further disasters quickly befel the Australians, Graham being caught at the wicket at and Gregory out leg before wicket at 40. Giffen w:<s taken at the wicket at 48, tills being McGregor's third catch in the innings. Bruce and Trumble stayed together for some little time, but at 57 'i rumble had his off stump bowled down by Briggs. McLeod was. easilv caught at mid on Turner was bowled at 69, and Blackliam, after making a desperate attempt to force the game, was run out by Jackson and Macgregor, the innings closing at four o'clock for 91, an extremely poer total o» such a fast ground. Briggs 'and lockwood bowled admirably for England. Having to follow on against the formidable majority of 392, Australia went in a second time at 4.25, and Bannerman and Bruce put on 54 for the first wicket. Bannerman and Giffen played extremely well, and put on runs at a good pace. Score at the close of day's play ENC LAND. —1st Innings.

BRADFORD, Tuefiday.-Play was vesumed in charm- ing weather at Bradford this morning at 11.40 in the presence of a large company. Webbe and Lucas, who had scored nine overnight for Middlesex with- out loss against the Yorkshire innings of 234, were opposed by Smith and Peel. Kuns came steadily, th^uirh Wet)be was obviously uncomfortable with bmith'- bow-ii)g. Lucas, however, appeared to appreciate it so at 36 'vL ziin w.-igii t took the ball, and witji the total unaltered got Webbe caught at slip. Scott joined Lucas, aud the 50 want up at 12.35. Peel, who had given way to Hirst, resumed at 67, but Wainwright at last tempted Lucas to drive, and that batsman was caught at long-on at 68. With Foley in, Smith displaced Wainwright. Foley was batting altogebber 35 minutes for seven when at 91 he was bowled. O'Brien ctiiie in, and twice drove Hirst for four, which sent up the 100 at a quarter to two. Then there was a double bowling change, but without result up to luncheon. On continuing after the interval, at ten minutes to three, Wainwright and Smith shared the attack Scott hit vigorously and completed his 50 as a re.sultof an hour and 50 minutes' play. At 139 Peel superseded Smith, and nine later Scott was caught in the deep field O'Brien was out at the same total as Scott, and at one hundred and sixty-nine Rawlin and Ford were dismissed, while at 175 Henery left Hearne and Burton made a useful little stand and added 16 runs before the former was caught, at mid- off at 191.

NEWPORT BANKRUPTCY COURT.…
NEWPORT BANKRUPTCY COURT. Ab the above court on Tuesday-before the Registrar (Mr H. J. Davis)—several debtors appeared to undergo public examination in bank- ruptcy.—John Doherty, surgeon dentist, said he began practice at Newport and Bridgend about nine years ago, and subsequently opened a practice at Pontypridd. His original capital was > ^?ktor stated that in 1892 he had a three racnths illness, and that as a result he lost his practice. His wife and children had also had senous illnesses, and subsequently his wife died, all of which increased his financial embarrass- ment. In July he resolved to file his petition in bankruptcy, when it transpired that the debtor's »et..assets amounted to £ 25 13s, whilst the li68 ^272 leavi«g a deficiency of SjMO ij>s. 1 he examination was ordered to be closed. INSUFFICIENT APPRECIATION OF LITERATURE.— David Davies, bookseller and newsagent, Aber- earn, told the court that he had been insolvent for several years. He had opened businesses at Abercarn, Jibbw Vale, Crumlin, and Newbridge, but had not been able to make both ends meet. Starting fourteen years ago with a capital of £10 he found himself, when the petition was filed, in July, with property valued at L45 9s, of which £ 36 15s 4d was owing to secured creditors and unsecured creditors held claims amounting to j3460 19s, with but £8 13s 8d to pay them. Mr Davies, like Mr Doherty, had suffered from illness, and also had had his wife and children Ill, and the wife bad subsequently died. Depression in trade was also given as a reason for failure. —The court closed the examination. FAILURE AFTER FIFTEEN MONTHS' TRADING.— John Llewellyn Davies, draper and outfitter, Risca, opened business in March, 1891, with a capital of JB180. In June last debtor submitted his affairs to an accountant, whose report con- vinced him that he was insolvent, and he imme- diately filed his petition. The assets were estimated at j6548 10a, and the debts to C507 3s 8d—a deficiency of L158 12 8d. The bank- rupt attributed his failure to bad trade and over- buying.-The examination was ordered to be closed. A MONMOUTH BAKER'S AFr.&IM.-Ilie last case was that of John Iteece Prothero, of 65, Monnow- street, Monmouth, baker and confectioner, who filed a petition in bankruptcy last month on finding that his liabilities exceeded his assets by £236 11s Od, the assets being L36 19s 9%d, and the gross liabilities, JB267 5s lOd. Debtor com- menced business on his own account in 1890 with a capital of J650, which was lent him by his mother. Debtor found the competition keen, trade depressed, and his own capital insufficient, and therefore failed to make his way. The debtor had offered a composition of 5s in the JB which some creditors accepted, whilst others refusing a petition had to be filed. The examina- tion was closed.
