"ERROR OF JUDG- | MENT." f ————— LORD MURRAY'S APOLOGY. "TRANSACTION OPEN TO CRITICISM." In the House of Lords on Tuesday, ici-d Murray of Elibank anticipated Lord Ampt- bill's motion for a Committee to inquire into the ex-Chief Whip's share in the Maroons pcandai by offering a personal explanation. In this statement Lord Murray said, in øt- fect, that if he had known at the time what he knows now he would have had nothing to do with American Marconis, not only be- cause he has lost money by them, but be cause the transaction was open to criticism, a fact he now realised and ought to have recognised at the time. It was, he said, an error of judgment Bad not of intention, and that plea related not only to his personal transaction in the shares, but to his investment of the party funds- With regard to the latter, be stated he had made good the loss to the party at verv CONSIDERABLE PECUNIARY EXPENSE to himself. He finally asked the House of Xiords to grant him the same deliverance which the House of Commons ha.d granted his colleagues by repudiating the suggestion of dishonourable motives. The Marquess of Lansdowne urged the House to suispend its judgment until it had had time to consider the full effect of Lord Jiarray's confession. of Ctoewe raised no objection to this course, though hinting that the explanation of Lord Murray ought to be accepted as closing the incident. • Lard AmpthiM, however, was not satis- lied; and only consented to postpone his motion for an inquiry until Thursday. He regarded it more essential, after Lord Mur- ray's statement than it was before, that the troth should be got at by evidence t-aken on oath and cross-examination, and de- dared that as the matter stood now it was REPROACH TO THE GOVERNMENT and a dishonour to Parliament. In the end the further discussion of the eoandal was postponed.

FATHEADED POOLS." North Wales Chairman's Insulting Observation. An extraordinary scene was witnessed at the monthly meetin g of the Abergale and Pensarn tirban District Council in consequence of a reference made by Mr. W. P. Morris, the chairman bo the Non- conformist petition against the Welsh Church Bill. In an interview with a re- rrresentative of a local newspaper, Mr. Morris described the petition as the indention of the devil, blessed by the, Bishop of St. Asaph, and believed in by fatheaded fools." Captain Hannah stated that he con- fcidered it was an insult to members of the council that their chairman should say such a thing. The chairman protested that he did not make the statement in his official capacity. I will not attend another meeting while you are chairman," said Captain Hannah. I will not demean myself." Do you call the Nonconformists who signed the petition fatheaded fools?" uked Mr. Perkins. "I do emphatically," replied the man. Then there are 15,000 of them in this dioceee," said Mr. Perkins. Granted that," said the chairman. Seven members of the council then left' the room.

I "WIN OR DRAW." ———— ———— FOOTBALL BRIBERY SENTENCES. IFIVE MONTHS' IMPRISON- i MENT. At Stafford Assizes on Wednesday Pasooe I Bioletti was sentenced to five months' ian- .prifiomnent in the second division in connec- tion with the football bribery case. He pleaded guilty. After some evidence and l argument, the Judge held that prisoner's plea was bad, and the jury returned a verdict by direction to that effect. Thereupon accused pleaded guilty to the. offeaice of bribery, and coun- sel for prosecution, on subm-iJ :ng the de- tails of the offence, said that in giving Pen- nington JB56 to secure tihat West Rramwioh did not beat Everlon ,&r that the matcih was a draw, prisoner tried to bribe the whole team.

Theie were only too many examples of this miserable system of gambling on sports.

NEW SWANSEA POST- MASTER. LONDON POSTAL SUPERIN- TENDENT APPOINTED. I Mr. E. W. J. Arman, postmaster of Reading, had been appointed postmaster of Swansea in succession to Mr. Leonard Jones, who has gone to Plymouth, but at his own wish the appointment was cancelled. It is now officially announced that the post has been given to Mr. R. Pascall, who is the superintendent of the London Postal Service. Mr. Paacall was in 19C8 postmaster of the North-western District Office, London, but beyond this nothing is known of him locally. Our Reading correspondent is informed that it has been decided to improve the position of postmaster of Reading, and that although Swansea continues to be the moire important offioe, the difference ia not suffi- ciently great to make it worth while few Mr. Arman to exchange.

BUYING THEIR OWN j LAND. { CURIOUS TRANSACTION AT! LLANELLY. I THE CROWN AS HARD BARGAINER. The President of the Board of Agncol- ture has given a wnttm reply to a question put him by Mr. Chae.

Thomas and Co. have enjoyed the adrvant- age of being allowed to tip on the 1a.nd of- fered and on othar foreshore land (of gireaAer extent) for some yeairs under the Crown lease mentioned, and it is considered that the rent reserved by the lease will not be more than reasonable for the area tliat 'will re- main held under it a fter the sale.

"WELSH CHICAGO P 1 SWANSEA AND COLD STORAGE. PORT'S POSSIBILITIES. MEAT MAGAZINE OF THE WEST. (Special to the Daily Post.") I In view of the great possibilities con- tained in the cold storage scheme upon which the Swansea Harbour Trust have re- cently decided to embark, the following ar- ticle by Alderman Morgan Hopkin will be read with interest, Aid. Hopkin having a knowledge of the meat trade that is second to noboay 's in the dista-ict:- The Swansea Harbour Trust, upon the re- I commendation of Air. Law, the general man- ag er, iMve decided to erect in the King s Dock die of the iargesv coid stores in the United Kingdom. It means that the Trust intends to foster a great import trade, which, in the opinion of every commercial man, is the most important feature in the policy oi every dock authority, and the cer- tain indication of permanent prosperity. But why was Swansea selected for such a scheme, because, aftar all, the Trust would not commit itself to such an important un- dertaking, involving the expenditure of so large a sum of L,50,000 or £OO,())(), unless they had some assurance of the success of the venture 1 That assurance has oome from ONE OF THE LARGEST COLD STORE I SYNDICATES in the Kingdom, which has ii-ndettaken to run the concern. But in what way can Swansea hope to attract that gigantic and ever-increasing traffic which is now being handled by London, Liverpool, Southamp- ton and Avonmouth to her docks? Swan- sea, horn its geographical position, is one of the nearest ports in the United Kingdom to the Argentine, which is the chief source of supply of beef and mutton. Swansea can give dock facilities second to none in the handling of ocean steamers of large ton- nage, and Swansea can give those tines, after discharging their cargoes, an outward cargo and bunker them with the best Welsh steam coal. Those are points that are bound to weigh I IN FAVOUR OF SWANSEA when our cold stores are complete. In order that the public may thoroughly grasp the full meaning of this scheme, it is necessary to point out one or two things. It is never for one second tbought that Swansea and its immediate district would consume the beef and mutton that would be brought, probably every two weeks, into those stores. Swansea, is considered by the most competent authorities to be the best distributing centre in the West of England, because in front and behind the stores there will be three great railways, namely, the Great Western, London and North-Wes- tern and Midland. As soon as the steamer is berthed the meat will be railed to every market and industrial centre in the king- dom. What is required from tihp lnsible heads of those railway companies is favour- able rates so that the best meat in the world can be sold to the people at the lowest price. With the exception of Argentine and some ports on the ooast of Brazil the great Continent of South America is almost unknown, but with the construction of I THE PANAMA CANAL the agricultural and mineral wealth of that, vast region will be developed, and Swansea, by its courageous policy, will thus rcai) the fullest advantage of this Oceanic waterway of the West. But it is not only beef and mutton that vill he hand'ed at those stores—it will be every food product-, such as butter, cheese, bacon, lard and fruits of every kind. New Zealand and Australia will take the fullest, advantage of the facilities offered them, becanse the steamers will take to oui bret hren in those d istant Colonies thousands of tons of tin plate* which are constantly re- quired by them. And. speaking of tin- plates, the countries of the Western side of South America., which will be brought so near to ii-q bv the openine of the Panama Canal, will provide another market to otir manufacturers of tinplates and galvanised sheets. One of the things which has probably never been thought of. but as quite within the Yange of "practical politics," is the es- tablishment of A CANNING FACTORY alongside the cold stores. As is well known the great canning factories are mainly situ- ated in Chicago, where it is sand the Yankees eat all they can, and can all they can't." But to-day the canners of Chicago are turning their eyes to South America, be- cause the United States can barely produce en?u?h beef and mutton to feed their own people. What does it mean? That every box of tinplate will have to be carried to Buenos Ayras for that purpose and brought back to t ?i. country, whereas, situated as we are in the centre of the tinplate indus- try the prospect of establishing a canning industry in Swansea is by no means remote. And the resultant effect upon the political economists of our country, when they realise that the nation, 8.9 well ae our Army and Navy, are being supplied with beef and mm- ton canned in Swansea and nort Chicago, can. well be imagined. But the ultimate success of tMe scheme in a great measure depends upon the co- operation of labour. If the several Unions that handle out dock traffic will give it their support, by the expeditious discharge of the cargoes brought to the stores there cam be no possible doubt SUCCESS 13 ASSURED. Swansea is destined to be the great ocean part of the West. Let us all work in every way to build np, not only this, but every business scheme that comes our way. Swan- sea has often been spoken of as a town of lo«t opportunities. Do not let us lose this and it will be safe to prophecy that in the wake of this enterprise scores of others will epmng up, and then ow two million pounds dock will soon be too small for tbú line?-. of ateairoers entering crar port, and the prophetio utterance of the late Lord Swan- pea will come true. With all sincerity let 08 wish prosperity to the King's Dock Cold Stores. ALT). MORGAN HOPKIN.

FORGING AHEAD. I PRIMROSE LEAGUE IN WEST I WALES. FINE MEETINGS AT NEATH AND SKEWEN. The newly-formed Gwyn Habitation" I of the Primrose "gus is certainly not allowing the grass to grow under its feet. The inaugural meeting held at Neath in December has been followed by a good deal of hard work, and the four wa.of the habitation are fast getting into effective working order, while propaganda work is to be ibi-axt-ed forthwith on thorough lines. On Tuesday a crowded meetmg was held -zi t the National Schools, Skewen, under the presidency of Mr. J. G. Moore-Gwyn, J.P. It was enthusiastic, too, and not the least ENCOURAGING "SIGN OF THE I TIMES" was the presence ot such a large number of Nonconformists. The chairman was sup ported by Mr. J. E. Moore-Gwyn, J.P., oi Duftryn, the ruling councillor, Mr. Theo- dore Gibbins, Mr. David Williams, Mr. J. E. R. Thomaa, Nii-. Tom Williams, Rev. J. C. Beynon, Rev. T. Jones, Nl-r.

Moore-Gwvn J.P., presided over the Neath meeting, which was held at the Constitutional Club. This was purely L: s was pujfJy a business gathering, which decided (1) to hold meetings monthly :n every ward; (2) to r>rooe?d artivelv on a PAMPHLETEERING CAMPAIGN; (3) to make a house to hoase canvass of the district; a.nd (4) to hold socia.l gatherings, with political addresses, as frequently as possible. Among those present at the Neath meet- ing were Mffl. Moore-Gwvn (dame presi- dent). Mrs. Theodore Gibbins (treasurer), Mr. Theodore, Gibbins. Mr. H. Lancaster, and Mr. 1. B. Rowlands.

DIVIDED VILLAGE, SCHOOL STRIKE AT PONTY- EATES. A report presented to the Carmarthen- fiihire County Education Authority an Thurs- da.y disclosed a school strike at Pointyeates, which has two (schools—one in the LLaneiiy distract and one in Osui-morthen. The formes' school was overcrowded, and the ohikLreai from the Cairmiairthen side were turned out. The Carmarthen school then proving also overcrowded, the children from the Llati- elly side were turned out. The parents resent these actions, alleging that both schools aire insufficient. The chil- dren evicted to the number of 40 are now going to neither ecliool and the parents flatly decline to send them. The stiiik-e has so feur extended over two weeks. The whole difficulty has been caused by an ammigeiment made at the last meeting of the county education committee by which tJhe village has been divided inito two parts. The ohi'dreai living in the houses above the post offioe were told off to attend the upper school, arid the rerraaining children were to attend the olwer school. The parents have takien strong objection to this arrangement, which came into force this month,, and things canne to a climax on Thursday, when a nmnlber of children pre- sented themselves at the lower school in- stead of the upper school. They were re- fused admission. The matter haas been taken up by a deputation of parents, who, it j wsus thought, would wait upon the Car- marthenshire Education Committee at Car- marthen on Thursday. No deputation, however, appeared. The only reference to the m.a.ttar was made by the Rev. A. Fuller Mills, who a.sekd if anv headmaster bad THE RIGHT TO REFUSE A BOY ADMISSION to a school unless he was guilty ol aome- thing. The Clark said there was an arrangement wheueby dhildren within a certadn area were limited to that area by reason of there not being suffiLiorA roam in the other school, with the object of pereventing overcrowding. Steps are being taiken with a view to an aniica.ole settlement.

MORE VALLEY GARDEN CITY HOUSES. Yatradgynlais Council met on Thursday, Mr. J. W. Morgan presiding.

It was decided at the fame meeting tha.t a de- putation should meet the Midland Co. '& re- presentatives on the spot re the clay pond crossing.

There will be a special gathering of lnen next Sunday afternoon in the Y. M. C.A. Llewelyn Hall, to be addressed by the Rev. D. Akrill Jones, M.A., Vicar of Skebfcy.

ROSIE BEGARNIE, &6 "Lady Betty," in The Pearl Girl," at the Grand Theatre next ween. Next week, London's very latest and greatest musical comedy success, "The Pearl Girl," will visit the Grand Theatre Swan- sea. Mr. Robert Courtneidge, who has been responsible for so many successes, is sending his principal company of this dainty and pretty musical play. It is now playing to crowded and enthusiastic audiences at the Shaftesbury Theatre, London, where it has attracted and ch-armed thousands of de- lighted plavloe-ro. Mr. Courtneidge is giving us something to marvel at-pretty girls, daintily gowned in the very latest Parishions, gorgeous scenery and wonder- ful effects of light and colour; ear-haunting melodies, dances which charm—alj going to make a lovely, lively spectacle rarely equalled in the annals of musical plays. The full Beauty Choruses, numbering 60, have been specially chosen, and the augmented orchestra is under the direction of Mr. James Lowe. The production has just that setting which the tast-e of the i-noment demands- rich in colour, yet always artistic. A story with a tangle—music with a swing, a host of charming girls, all go to make the most wonderful creation placed on any stage. It may well indeed be a wonder if there is a vacant seat at the Grand Theatre next week.

I TRAWLERS I TUSSLE. SWANSEA CREWS' ORDEAL "IZAAK WALTON" AND BIG OIL-TANK. There were no signs of the Swansea traw- ler Ixaak Walton and her oil-tan 7 I which she had picked up off tlhe Msih coast. Further details show that whilst other trawlers oame to the steamer's assistance, the Swansea boat was the only one which stuck to her task. Me&srs. Neale and West, of Cardiff, re- ceived an intimation from Lloyd's on Tues- day moaning that the company's trawler Nogi and two otb&r trawlers were render- ing assistance to an oil tanker which had lost her rudder, 45 miles frouth-west of Queenstown. Very bad weather was re- ported, and the trawlers were endeavouring to tow the damaged vessel into Queens- town. Lloyd's Que ens town correspondent tele- graphs that the steam trawler Apley ar- rived there and reported the Dutch tank steamer Rotterdam, Amsterdam for New York, about 75 miles pMth-weet of Queenstown, at noon on Saturday, with the rudder gone, with the steam trawler Izaak Walton (Swansea) endeavouring to steer. The Apley met the Rotterdam at midnight on the 12th. The Apley towed and the Izaak Walton steered, but owing to bad weather the Apley parted.. The Apley afterwards left the port to search for the Rotterdam again. I THE PICTON CASTLE. I Exhausted Crew Arrive at Swansea. The Picton Castle arrived at Swansea on Wednesday morning from Falmouth after her Tecord tow of a disabled steamer from I Cape Finisterre. The trawler which is in oommand l of Capt. W. H. Fletcher, picked up the Ludwig Groedel, a steameT of 2,964 tons register, on Friday night, and after an arduous voyage towed her into Falmouth. The Picton Castle bore the marks of a I PROLONGED BATTLE WITH THE WAVES. but the trawlers of the Castle Trawling Co. are fortunately constructed on very sturdy lines, and trawlermen maintain that the Picton Castle and her sister ships will live in seas w here other vessels could not. The orew, after being paid off, were glad to rapidly disperse to obtain much-needed o b tun mijel-i-riee d e d rest—a luxury which w.-ia deni-ed them during their strenuous week-end.

"SEEMS OUTRAGEOUS." I CORPORATION'S PHOTO- GRAPHERS' BILLS. I Swansea Finance Committee met oa I Thursday, Mr. H. Macdonnell (chairman) presiding. I LL'JCK-WINDING DANGERS. I The Chairman, in connection with the ac- count of Messrs. Webber and Son, for wind. jing the public clocks, drew attention to the danger accompanying the operation at St. Thomas' Church. The platform was nar- row, unprotected, and quite wobbling. He suggested it, was worth Ald. Colwill's while to try it. Aid. Colwill Very well. The Chairman added that it was very uih safe for the Corporation contractors. I "MOSES LEE." PHOTOGRAPHS. Two bills for photographs startled Mr. Holmes. They were. £ 2S 16s. 9d. from Nly. Osmund Vanston and 95 5s. from Mr. Jack Lewis. The photographs were taken in con- nection with the Moses Lee litigation. Mr. Holmes: But shall we not get the oosts back? The Borough Account-ant (Mr. Ashmole): I am afraid we shall not get anything back. Mr. Holmes: It seems outrageous. The bills were passed. I A RECORD COLLECTION. The Borough Treasurer, in regard to his statement of receipts, said that so far as col- lection of rates was concerned last montbi was a record one; they had never collected so much money before in a single month.

STOMACH TROUBLES. Stomach troubles always tend to become worjse if neglected. The occasional head- ache or pains after eating, which trouble you now, may scarcely seem worth atten- tion, but 1. wenty months hence, if you neglect them, you may be numbered amongst the great army of dyspeptics, whose daily toil becomes almost intolerable through charm ic headaches, pains iftev eating, flatulence, biliousness, constipation, languor, sleeplessness, and depression. It is easier to prevent than cure, therefore act promptly, now, and take Mother Seigel's Syrup daily, after your m-eals. It is a herbal remedy, made from more than ten varieties of roots, barks, and leaves. You will find, as have tens of thousands before you, that it has a most beneficial effect upon the stomach, liver, and bowels- Forty years of world-wide suooesses have proved it. You can prove it, too.

INCOME-TAX. The Borough Treasurer said with regard to his statement at the last meeting that crver LI,OM had been saved on Income-Tax, to avoid any misunderstanding he wished to eay that he had had no difficulty whatever with the Income-Tax surveyor. Having made the necessary claims for rebate and &et-ofh, the surveyor satisfied himself that they wero correct and allowed them. If claims had been made in previous years they would have in a similar manner been al- lowed, without doubt. The surveyor had! met him most fairly in all those matters, and the fact that these claims had not pre- viously beea made and allowed was not due to- his department in any way. FINANCIAL ADJUSTMENT AWARD. Regarding the award of Sir Hugh Owen re the financial adjustment of all the Gov- ernment grants between the Glamorgan County Council and the Cardiff and Swansea Councils, it was reported that in consequence of the award having been given beyond the stipulated period—a point Sir Hugh Owen had overlooked—it was necessary that an application be made to the courts to make the award valid. The County Council sug- gested, in order to avoid the expense of going to the courts, that a mutual agree- ment be come to between the three bodies concerned. The committee concurred.
