Atkinson proceeded agamst William Price, Llewynhentiy, for an offence against Sections 29, 50, 75, and 90 of the Coal Mines HgulatlOn Act. There were si summonses There were also four cases against Thomas Prothe- roe, Old-road. Mr. Kenshole appeared to prosecute on behalf of the Treasury and the Home Offrce, and Mr. Powell, N eath, de- fended. Mr. A. Ivor Parry, Pontypridd, watcher the proceedings on behalf of the relatives of the men killed by the explosion. The case outlined. I In opening the case for the prosecu- ¡ tion. Mr. Kenshole said that tne sum- monses in the lirdt case were taken out I for failure to provide proper ventilation and keeping the airways and working l places free Irom inflammable gas. In October last an explosion occurred at the Glynea Cohlliery, which resulted in the loss of eight jives. The fireman, who could have told the bench all that occurred, had since died. It appeared that some of the men were working ¡o pholes, and were rather slow and the ventilation being neglected, an explosion resulted. He pointed out that Mr. Protheroe. the under manager, was the chief shareholder in the com- company. Mr. Vyer Lewis, senior inspector of mines, sai dthat he made an examina- tion of the mine after the explosion, I and found a quantity of gas up to the point where the explosion occurred. The Verdict. The magistrate considered that there I was a distinct breach of the regulations on the 6th November, for which Wm. Price was responsible, and in that case they inflicted a fine of £ 10 and costs. The other charges against him, and also the other charges against Thomas Protheroe, were dismissed on payment of costs. Mr. Powell, And what about the case against Mr. Protheroe ? Chairman: We dismiss the case against him as agent. Mr. Powell: But my friend pleaded guilty on his behalf. Chairman: We dismiss all the cases against Mr. Protheroe on payment of costs.

WELSH" RUGBY CUP. I RESOLVtN KNOCKED OUT OF COMPETITION I BY LLANELLY, LLANELLY, 8pts.; RESOLVEN, nil. I The Scarlets emerged victorious xic-m their Welsh Cup-tie with Reaolven -at Stradey, yesterday afternoon, whom *i ey defeated by eight pointe—one converted goal one try to nothing. The ground vas in a rain-eodden condition, but neverthe- less the game was keenly contested, and was pleasantly witnessed by the few hun- dred spectators present. The Scarlets gained their victory after a hard tuesle, for the Blue and Blacks proved to be a etiif opposition. There were many periods wnen Resolven gained the ascendency, and Uie Scarlets' hopes of victory were often in jeopardy. The homesters were leading ft the interval by a try scored bv J. L. Thomas after a forward rueh, which 4 ac unconverted. Joe D.3.viea failing in the attempt. PROMINENT JN THE RUSHES. Previous to his score J. L. Thomas, along with Dai Hiddlestone, were promment in another forward rush that almost ended in a score. After Llanelly's score the visitors made determined efforts to equalise, :t.,d up to the interval they held the Llanelly goal in danger, and frequently experienced hard lines in not registering a score. Vheir efforts were checked almost at the i;«t momente, .and line-oute were held within a yard of Llanelly's goal-line. The Scar- lets, when the interval came, could con- aider themselves fortunate in maintaimng their three-point lead. GOOD FOOTWORK. I For the most part it. w.M a dribbling game, and excellent footwork was contri- buted by both forward lines. The Scarlet*' forwards excelled their opponents both in ecrummaging and in open play. Resolven's weakness in front, however, was lessened- ,,ind not eo evident by the defence of "hen three-quarter line. They were not. how- ever, while making use cf their opportu- nities given too much freedom by the hone backs, who brought off many fine tackles. Joe Davies. the Llanelly custodian, -aved hie goal nicely on one occasion by tripping bis opponent and spoiling whit would -.ave been a lovely try. REPLICA OF THE FIRST HALF. I Play, in the second half. was not dif- ferent to that of the previous half. The players also were none the lew fagged. and the game until its close w.M hotly con- tested. The best piece of play in the ,ame was that which led up to the ecoring of Llanelly's second try. Gathering the I all a little over the twenty-five line, Watta made a brilliant run tb rough T, bunch of opponents, and when confronted by lie visiting custodian he passed to Sid Wehber The latter immediately transferred to Rhys Davies. who scored one of the best tries seen at Stradey this sea-gon. ind to the amazement of the Reeolven supporters, md even the visitors themselves. Extra points were added by the Rev. W. T. Havard. Until the final whistle t-he Scarlets did r.ot lose their superiority, and for the list fifteen minutes they played with greater confidence Reeolven had to admit defeat to a moet skilful side. but not until after a stiff fight did they make an exit out of the Welsh Oup competition in ita third round.

£ 100 CLAIMED. I
£ 100 CLAIMED. I MR. COUTTS ATTRIBUTES MISHAP TO I "ACT OF GOO." (Continued from Page 1.) Mr. Coutts' Defence. I Mr. Coutts addressed the jury. He expressed his sympathy with the mother and the little girl. If sympathy anj personal help could havo met the o.'A a it would never have )('en brought into court. He submitted that he could not be held legally liable. There was no lack of superintendence; the police have to answer for that. There had been no lack of care on his own part, because when the canvas truck proved inadequate, be had a timber truck made; Further, a big heavy stone had been placed in the bottom of the truck, making j, absolutely safe so far as any ordinary accident was con- cerned. He suggested that the acci- dent was caused by what is legally known as "an act -if God" and that neither he nor his servant could be held liable for it. Concluding. Mr. Coutts said that when the little girl was in hospital he did his best to alleviate any trouble or suffering in the home. He sent his general manager up to give a Sttle as- sistance. Here Mr. Edwards interposed, and His Honour informed Mr. Coutts that he must confine himself. in his address to the jury, to the evidence that had been offered. Mr. Coutts thereupon reviewed the evidence that had been given about the Hospital in his motor car, which he said was likely, though kindly meant. to convey a wrong im- pression. The case would not have come into court but for the straightened circumstances in which he had recently found himself. Summing Up. His Honour, in gumming up, said that if the jury considered the construction of the truck was such that it could have gone over in ordinary weather, or even in an ordinary storm, that would be negligence. If conditions were ab- normal, that, of course would lie an- other matter. If they decided that there had been negligence, then the only question left was that of damages. The jury retired to consider their verdict. E25 Damages. After nearly hair an hours retirement the jury found for plaintiff with L25I damages.

-- A TEST CASE.
A TEST CASE. .———— W- ———— THE IMPORTATION OF ARMS INTO IRELAND. v COUNSEL'S CRITICISM. Belfast, Wednesday. The question of tho legality or other- wise of the action of the Government in seizing and detaining arms and ammuni- tion at Belfast came before Mr. Justice Boyd and a special jury at the Assize Court here to-day. The plaintiffs in what is a test case are Messrs. Adam Hunter and William Hunter, trading as gunsmiths, in Bel- fast as Hunter and Son, and the de- fendant, is Mr. R. H. Coleman, Collector of Customs in this city. The plaintiff's claim is for the return of eight packages at arms which they allege were wrongfully seized, and £ 250 damages for trover and con- version. In the clternative they claim that they suffered damage by reason of the defendant converting to his own use and wrongfully depriving the prin- cipals of the use ot the goods. In his defence the Customs Collector, after traversing the alleged cause of action, pleads that, in December last a Proclamation in Council was issued by the King, prohibiting the importation of arms into Ireland, aA(i otlrat, the de- fendant actsti in contravention of such proclamation, hence the forfeiture of the goods. Mr. Stephen Ronan, K.C., for the plaintiffs, said that in the ordinary course of business towards the end of last year his clients ordered some cases of guns from Hamburg. While the goods were on the way the two pro- clamations wpre mad e by the King in Council, one of which prohibited the importation of arms into Ireland. The point for the judge to decide would be whether there was power to make a, sp^pial limited proclamation applying to Ireland only. Jf his Lordship decided in favour of the plaintiffs, then the jury would merely have to assess the damages—the value of the guns at 7s. 6d. each. If the conduct of the de- fendants could be upheld, it meant that the Government of the day could at any time stop the import trade into any port they liked-cott.on into Liverpool, tea into London, and so on. Counsel matte a lengthy speech in support of his contention. An Amusing Episode. I The Irish Attorney-General caused much laughter, when a juryman asked to see a certain document, hy remark- ing that the jury had nothing to do with it. When Mr. Ronan took him up he replied, You have said so your- self!" (Laughter). Later on an altercation took place between counsel, whereupon Mr. Ronan said he could understand his learned friend being a little sore in this great case. The Attorney-General: It is not a great case. It is a farce from beginning to end-a political farce before a. Bel- fast jury. Why did they not bring it on in Dublin? (Laughter). (Proceeding).

These were words uttered at the a* i ual meeting of the Gw.aJ.ia Provident Au.çja. tion, ajid so important is this utterance that great prominence should be .riven it. For seven years this association has i eett tstemdily plodding its way, and ;tlth, t;;Il the promoters have been anxious a toward their subscribers, they themselves are even surprised at so early a eu.rees. THe b<'(,4)oo elation to-day is mentioned ir; al"n<«t every house, and certainly rhat neede no intro- duction to the Swansea public. 3-u. we miy ask, why has it made sueh rnl-.id strides, and why hae it proved so sxtcc ful?

And what ie the basis upon which the association is worked ? shortly it is this: Any man of sound health. between 16 and 50 years of ago, without entrance fee of any sort, mey be admitted as a member of the Association, and take up any number of shares, from one-half to Six. under a. prescribed table of oontribu. tions, which are, calculated on the hisis oi one penny per day per lunar month for each share held up to the age of thirty years, and after this period an increase of one half- penny per lunclr month annually. In otheJ words, a member between the age of 16 arri 30, holding, aay, one share. pay", 2s. 4d. pet month; at 40 t.he contribution is 2.s. 9d., and at 65 only lIS. Otd. per month more. Thus it will be seen that, all members are paying each year for their own risk at their par- ticular age, and the slight additional charge annually assured an equal apportionment of surplus income at all ages. The equal apportionment, is, -nne might say. a speciality, and clearly siKvws thfl reasons why this association deeervee alj support. The apportionments might be set out as followe: (1). From 5s. to JM per week during sick- ness between the ages of 16 and 65, payable from first day of sickness. (Z). A easin-gs fund enabling members to accumulate a. sum of money a,t compound interest, withdro.,wable in full at 60 or 66. (V. Loans to members out of their savings fund, repayable by instalments with interest at 4, per cent. per annum. (4). Advances to members for house pur- chase, repayable. by instalments spread over one to 21 years; and (5). Deceased member's account not reach- ing L5 is made up to that sum before being paid over to their representativee.. A young man at the age of 16 subscribing; for one share, and remaining a member for 50 years. can by means of this admirable system look forward to having at least £ 240 to his credit at the end of that time irrespec. t-ive of any sick pay he may have received How few men of M can to-day ?ay they have thM um to t,he credit of their banking account, as a result of saving a penny per day. and yet at the game time have had » provision in periods of sickness? On Tuesday evening, at the seventh annual meeting of the association it NizA clearly shown that thessociety is upon a. sound footing, and, incidentally, it may l e expected that more pleasant surprises wil be made known in the very near future. so excellent are the workings. There xtts quite a. large attendance at the meetin; but, unfortunately, the president (Mr. D. Villiers Meager) was not present, and the chair was occupied by Mr. T. H. Williaon. A letter, however, was read from the preei. dent, in which he said that the fact a' sick pay remains so remarkably low amongst the members showed not only care in management, but also the amount of in- terest every member must take in the suc- cess of the association. The combination of advantages the members had in the op- portunity of obtaining good security for money invested, the opportunity of obtain. ing loans if required, and also of being in- jured against sickness, taken together with such excellent results as had been attained in the past indicated an equally flourishing future career. < The annual report submitted by the general secretary. Mr. W. Nichols, showed that in the accounts for the year ended December 31st, 1913, there was an apportion- ment of 29s. per share, and compound in- terest at the rate of 5 per cent. had been placed to the credit of each member's ao- count. Sick pay only reached £ 37 8s. 5d.. and the total of the accumulated balances of members now stood at £ 1,846 Us. Id., in- vested in good securities and on deposit in the bank. The report went on to show a table I giving the amount standing to the credit of members who have been connected, with the association during the eeven years of its existence, apart from any sick pay they may have received, the latter, together with all expenses of management, being pro- vided out of the common fund before the yearly balance is -MIIOM-ted £ s. d.

RISK TO PATIENTS. *
RISK TO PATIENTS. MR. BROOK'S WARNING TO SWANSEA HOSPITAL MANAGERS. At the monthly meeting of the Swan- sea Hospital Board of Management on Wednesday, Mr. F. W. Brook referred to a minute relating to the question of the status and privileges of anaestha- tists and drew attention to the serious s.tate or affairs in the hospital, saying that for two months they had been without an anaesthetic at all. He pointed out that the resident surgeons had to spend more time in the opera- ting theatre than before, and the board was asking for trouble in not getting the anaesthetists appointed at once. It was a scandal if patients could not be treated when they ought to be treated. Colonel Morgan said the Chairman of the Board would be back on Wednes- day, and a special meeting would be called to consider the matter; Mr. Brook asked why they should in- cur risk for another week. Mr. Goldberg: We are not in a worse position than we were before, if we ad- journ it for a week. Mr. Brook: But you are. There are more hours spent now in the operating theatre than before and resident surgeons are being kept out of their wards and the casualty wards to a greater extent than ever. A case may crop up to-day or to- morrow, and what reason is there for waiting to carry out what the Board has already fiecided to do? After further discussion, Mr C. Tuck- field pointed out that the minutes had been passed before Mr. Brook came into the board-room, and that he was out of order. Mr. Brook said he agreed that he was out of order, but if a scandal cropped up between them and the time the anaethetist-s were apDointfd, the Board would be responsible. He had given them warning. Col. Morgan (chairman): I will in- form the chairman of this Board that it is the pleasure of this meeting that a special meeting shsjild be summoned for next Wednesday to consider this question.
