SOOTH WALES FINANCE. (Cardiff Account Day, Sept. 29th.) Saturday, Sept. 23rd, 1899. There has been very little business stirring in the local market to-day, as might have been expected on the last day of the week, and following on such an unsettled period, but the general tone of the market was better on what is considered the im- proved outlook of affairs in South Africa, as well as in regard to some local labour disputes. Rails have been a neglected quantity, but a general belief prevails that just about bottom prices have been touched. Coal Shares claimed a shade more attention, but with- out eliciting much business. Ebbw Vales were dealt in at 91lr, and the quotation closed better at that level. The im- provement is immediately due to the reported settlement of the company with their furnacemen. Bland's Shares have been dealt in at 18s 6d, the same as last business, and Spillers' and Bakers' Ordi. nary at 12 y4, the middle price. Bute Dry Docks show a farther improvement of at 16%. Mining Shares showed a slight general recovery, but dealings were on a limited scale. Chartereds were dealt in somewhat freely round about 2*. The following changes in value are noted in the official list of the Cardiff Stock Exchange:— Rise—Ebbw Vales -fg, to 9^ Bute Dry Docks y3, to 16%. There are buyers of Ben Evans' Ordi- nary; Bute Dry Docks; Ebbw Vales; North's Ordinary. There are sellers of Barry Deferred; Ben Evans' Debenture Stock; Penrikyber Colliery Ordinary International Coals. Ben Evans and Co., Ltd.'s Interim Dividend.—The transfer books will be closed from Oct. 2nd to 10Mi (both days inclusive) when the dividend will be paid. RHONDDA AND SWANSEA BAY RAILWAY. With respect to a report that has been pub- lished regarding the work of the Consultative Committee appointed by the Rhondda and Swansea Bay shareholders to consult with the directors and report to the shareholders as to the possibility of reducing the working expenses and increasing the traffic, the chairman of the com- mittee (Mr T. E. Stevens) writes expressing surprise at references which have appeared in a contemporary. He says the secretary of the com- mittee has not yet completed his repot t, but when completed it will deal chiefly with economies which, by a revision of the train service and other Means he recommends, and which the committee will consult the directors upon at a joint meet- ing to be held shortly. The committee," he adds, have not yet pac before the directors any tecomrnendations, and there is nothing that can be styled drastic in the proposed recommenda- tions of the committee. The committee does Dot see any gravity iu the position of the com- pany." NOTTINGHAM EMPIRES. The report of the directors of the Nottingham Empire Palace, Limited, has jnst been issned. Itstat--s:-The business during the year has been very satisfactory, and on the conclusion of the first six months the directors were able to pay an interim dividend for that period at the rate of 10 per cent. per annum. The balance of profit brought forward from last year,after deducting the sum of zEIC,5 voted to the directors at the annual meeting, was Z579 183 4d. In dealing with the profits for the cnrrent year, the directors have resolved to asply £ 1.000 in reducing the balance of preliminary expenses by that amount, and to allow JE725 3s 5d for depreciation of furnishings, &c., being at the rate of 10 per cent. In addition, all repairs and renewals have been charged to I revenue. Under the agreement between Mr Stoll and the company he is entitled, in the event of the proposed dividend being paid, to an add4- tional sum of 1250 to his salary of V500 (due only if 10 per cent. has been paid to the shareholders), and the directors have debited this sum in the profit and loss account. After giving effect to these and all other deductions (including debenture interest and the amount of the interim dividend) the balance of pront is £ <^297 15s 5d. The directors recommend that a dividend should be paid for ths second half of the year at the rate of 15 per cent. per annum, free of income tax. This will absorb a snm of X,3,742 10s, leaving a balance of C555 5s 5d to be carried forward, subject to such amount as the shareholders may vote to the directors, other than the managing director, for their services daring the year.

LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE. LONDON, Saturday. Money has continued very abundant, consequent on the good business done in discounts by the Bank of England of late, and short loans, after being last at 1% to 2 per cent. in the early hours, could be borrowed at 1 per cent. in the afternoon. Business has been quiet m the Discount Market, and rates have ruled steady at 3ï\- to 3% per cent. for three months' bills. The Bank of England has done a fair business in discounts, owing to a slight relaxation in political tension. Stock Markets have to-day shown a more cheerful tendency, as it is hoped that President Kruger, after the receipt of Mr Chamberlain's despatch of last night, will be disposed to accept British pro- posals. Fresh business has, however, been limited, the improvement being largely due to the closing of bear accounts. Favourable rumours respecting the acquisition of Delagoa Bay by Great Britain have also not been without their good influence upon the market. Consols have been firm, closing, however, below their best at 73 advance for money and account. Foreign Bonds have been quiet but firm in tone. Portuguese have improved on favourable rumours respecting Delagoa Bay. Spanish and Italian have also closed higher. Home Railways have shown a firm tendency at a slight advance on few purchases to cover recent sales. American Railways have experienced general improvement on better New York prices and in the expecta- tion of a good Bank statement, Grand Trunk Railway Stocks have closed higher on speculative purchases. Mexican Rail- way First Preference receded y2. South African Mines have shown firmness on the improved political outlook and on pur- chases to cover recent sales. West Aus- tralian Mines have also improved. The market for Home Government Securities was firm, and Consols rose for both money and account at 105 34 and 104 respectively. Rupee Paper was unchanged.

They won't cure bad debts or bad temper though they often prevent the one and improve the other, for bad temper is often the result of ill-health, and bad debts and good ones are made through a wage-earner's health. They won' cure corns. No, but they WILL cure Indigestion, Wind in the Stomach, Liver Complaints Biliousness, Spasms, Sick Headache, &c. This reads like a miracle" I owe a debt of gratitude to you for the benefit I have derived from taking your Wind Pills. I have thought that I could best discharge that gratitude by sending you a testimonial. Eighteen months ago I had an attack of Influenza. I took Doctor's medicine for several weeks, but got no better. I continued ill for several months, suffering from Flatulency and Pains in my Chest. I resolved to try your Wind Pills, and in three days I was much better. I suffered for years from Biliousness, but thanks to your Wind Pills I scarcely ever have any pain in my Chest or Bilious- ness. Wishing that all who suffer from Indigestion, Flatulency, and Liver Complaint may derive the same benefit. You may give my name and address to any inquirer."—Signed W.Y.L.

This Story was awarded the iso Prize given by the Proprietors of the Cardiff Times and South Wales Weekly News" to encourage the writing of Welsh fiction. A Maid (VI- Mona is a stirring romance of the twelfth century, one of the most stirring periods of Welsh history, and at the same time one of the most difficult to deal with from a historical point of view, and one with which even the keenest student of Welsh history is least acquainted. Yet the period furnishes some of the wildest romances of wild Welsh history, and the fact that 00 novelist has hitherto seized upon the epoob may be explained by the singular difficulties which have led even the best of Welsh his- torians to deal in the most meagre fashion with it. The most notable Welsh figures of that time were Gruffydd ap Rhys ap Tewdwr, the last Prince of South Wales, and bis Queen G wenllian, daughter of Gruffydd ap Cynan, the King of North Wales. Gwen- Ilian stands forth prominently as one of the most heroic figures in Welsh history, and con- temporaries with her were such notable charac- ters as the Princess Nest, the Welsh mistress of the Norman King Henry Owain Ap Car- digan, the arch-traitor and renegade Lord of Cardigan; Duke Robert of Gloucester, so intimately associated by birth and marriage with Wales Gruffydd ap Cynan, the most remarkable of the Kings of North Wales the famous Welsh barcl Meilir and the families of De Londrcs and De Windsor, two distinct Norman types, each of which exercised their influence upon the Welsh. All these highly interesting characters move through the pages of the story, which centres round the heroine Gwenllian. Her romantic meeting with Prince Gruffydd, her devotion to her lover and his people, her life of adventure amidst the most striking scenes of Welsh and Norman warfare, and her ultimate martyrdom afford the theme of the narrative. Recognising the difficulties with which the authors have had to contend we must admit with the adjudi- cators that they have produced a work of great value historically and educationally to Wales, whilst giving us a story of the most thrilling interest.
