PLOTTING MURDER pi Charge Against M r. Watt. "MURDERERS AT 24s. A DOZEN." At Marlborough-street Police-court, London, on Thursday (before Mr. Kennedy) the hearing was resumed of the charge against Mr. Hugh Watt, formerly a member of Parliament for one of the divisions of Glasgow, of having attempted to procure Herbert Marshall, a private inquiry agent, to murder Mrs. Julia. Watt, and endeavouring to persuade Thomas Worley and James Shuttle to kill Mrs. Watt and Sir Regipald Beauchanrp. In the absence, through illness, of Mr. Sims, Mr. Arthur Gill prosecuted on behalf of the Treasury. Mr. Muir (instructed by Mr Frcko Palmer) appeared for the defence. Mr. Muir proceeded with the croes-examina- tion of Worley, who had given evidxenc, at a previous hearing. Witness said he had had a paper stall at Knightsbridge for ten yeajs, and it was a well-established business. When he left the stall he was given L10 compensation, but the stall, in a sense," was carried on at the present time by the man who formerly worked for him. Witness never told that man anything about his transactions with Mr. Watt. With the excep- tion of Shuttle he did not know that anybody had seen witness in the company of Mr. I Watt. Witness was 26 years of age. SOBER AND SANE. 1 Did you treat the proposition that you should do injury to Mrs. Watt seriously?— Well, I should say that he meant every word that he said. Did Mr. Watt appear to be eober?—Yes, every time I saiv him. Did he appear to be sane?—Yos, every bit of the way. What do you think? The proposition he made to you was that you should go to Hampton Court at night, pretend that you were an old servant, and get out Mrs. Seileg, supposed to be the sister of Mrs. Watt?—Yes. I was to get the lady, get her near the river and give her a blow in the stomach, and then rob her. He said he would give ;me £ 10 for the job, but that all fell through so far as I was concerned, and I let him believe that I would get other fellows to do it instead. You seriously thought that for £iG you were to get this woman out and murder her? -Well, assault her. Well, you were either to murder her or do her grievous bodily harm?—Yes, but Mr. Watt said she wore jewellery of the value of £70 ,r of the value of L',1 0 or £80, and that would be a good tiling for me. That was to be thrown in?—Yes. (Laughter.) MURDERERS AT 24s. A DOZEN. Suppose you had done it, what do you think would have happened to you?—I don't know; but I never seriously entertained suoh a thing. In the course of conversation on the subject Mr. Watt said that I could get plenty to do it for 2s. or 3s. each. I told him that I could get others to do it, but I never intended to do it or have it done. You were to act the part of the honest broker in the murder or grievous-bodily-harm trade ?-I have not broke anyone yet. (Laughter.) That is the s,erious proposition that he made to you ?—Yes, I was to get some fellows and take them down. You were to ta,ke down murderers at about 24s. a dozen?—Yes. You were to be the merchant and buy these fellows at 2s. or 3s. apiece, and sell them at £5?-No; I said I would not have anything to do with it. What had you—an honest newspaper seller —ever said to Mr. Watt to induce him to think tha.t you were a hirer of murderers? He thought, perhaps, as I sold newspapers, 1^ might be the sort of person who would do it. Then, because you sold newspapers, you were supposed to be willing to hire murderers a.t about 24s. a dozen?—Evidently that was Mr. Watt's idea,, or he would not have approached me. I thought to myself at the time, "This man usod to be a member of Parliament. He is a- fine man to govern the country. (Laughter.) Witness, further inter- rogated, said he did not inform the police of these propositions because ilothing was done; besides, his word wouldn't have been taken against the word of a man like Mr Wn.tt ANOTHER TO BE "BONE IN." Mr. Watt was always careful that no one should be present to hear tlieit conversa- tions. Witness had subsequent conversations with Mr. Watt in regard to a lady who was living at the Howard Hotel. He said this lady would be living there either in the name of Watt or Seileg, and she must be "done in." The idea in this case was that he should knock this lady down. He was to receive for this zE50 if she was injured, and if it "led to something else" he would be given X,100 and £1 a week for life. He said he would do his best. At the same time he was receiving £ 1 or X2 at a time on account, but was not doing anything. Mr. Muir: You, a respectable working man, take a sovereign or two on account of a murder you never intended to do? Witness: Yes. A great many might have done it, but I had more control over my feelings. While Mr. W.-i;t,t was willing to give me money I was willing to take it. I thought it would teach Mr. Watt a lesson. Did it never occur to you to get this agree- ment for payment for murder in writing p- If I had been as "wide" as you perhaps I should. If I had been on the make" I should. (Laughter.) Then you were not "on the make"?— Well, I was to a certain extent, and I made altogether 950 out of the transactions. SIR REGINALD BEAUCHAMP. Mr. Muir then cross-examined the witness as to his connection with the witness Shuttle in these transactions. W itness said that Mr. Watt suggested that he should dress up smart," enter the Howard Hotel, where Mrs. Watt was supposed to be staying, go into her room, and knock her down and chloro- form her. Witness would not undertake this job, but thought he might get Shuttle, who never had the heart to work for a living or the heart to thieve for a living." Mr. Watt said he wanted a man who had done man- slaughter. Mr. Muir: I suppose there were no mur- derers on the market. (Laughter.) Then another proposition, I understand, was made to you?—Yes. There was Sir Reginald Beauchamp. He was described as a totter- ing gentleman, who only wanted knocking down and he would be "all right." For that I was to get CZ50. Mr". Muir: But, surely, thait ought to have been cheaper—knocking down a tottering old man? Witness: Well, perhaps, you are used to driving bargains. I don't know. (Laughter.) Mr. Watt said to me that X250 would put me into a nice little business, and that then I should have £1 a week to fall back upon. He said that would give me a good start in life. Mr. Muir: And only a murder at the begin- ning of it. (Laaghter.)-Well, that is what he wanted me to do to got -a start in life. And he meant it, of course?—Yes, it was serious so far as he was concerned. There were others he also wanted "done in"—lots of them. LUCRATIVE CONNECTION.. Why did you break off this lucrative con- nection ?-Weil, I thought tbat, as he found I was not doing something, he might be coming upon my track, so I washed my hands of the whole business. You thought he might be putting a 2s. murderer upon you? (Laughter.)—Well, as I knew so much, I thought that, perhaps, he would think it best for me to be out of the way. The first time I thought the proposi- tions of Mr. Watt were those of a lunatic was when he wished to have 80 many "put away," and then I thought he was going "off his head." I had thought before that he was a most calculating scoundrel. Then it never occurred to you that it had its humorous side?—It is not much humour if a man goes telling you his business in this fashion. THE KING'S NAME BROUGHT IN. At the afternoon hearing a witness, named Lightfoot, of Leith, desired to deny the evidence he had given at a previous hearing. He had stated that he heard a plot between Marshall and M'Kenna, the private detec- tives, to ruin Mr. Watt. That he now wished to withdraw. The witness went on to say that he had known Mr. Watt for several years, and that he met him in Hyde Park in August last. At that interview a man described as Lord Kiiilcch, or somebody with a name like that, was present, and they went to a public-house for a drink. There he was instructed to state to the magis- trate that ho had overheard the plot of which ho had spoken. He was to have 15,000, for his work. Watt and the other gentleman I said that the case was to be hushed up by order of the King, who was a friend of Lady Violet Beauchamp. Amid sensation a letter which witness wrote to Mr. Watt was read. In the letter witness said he could clear Mr. Watt. Witness remarked that the letter wa.3 written at Mr. Watt's OWin dicta- tion. Witness went on to say that in response to a telegram from Watt, which witness received at his home at Thirsk, he came to town, and dined with Mr Watt and Lady Violet. Mr. Watt then asked him to give the evidence which he had already related in court. Mr. Watt suggested that he should go to Canada, stating that he would not be wanted at the trial. Witness got £21) from Watt, £18 .10s. from the "equerry," cund was] and a. Government berth for, life. a I CASE HAD, TO BE HUSHED UP." Mr. Gill: Was anything eaid about the magistrate (Mr. Kennedy) who is trying the case?—Yes, it was told to me that Mr. Ken- nady knew all sbout the case having to be hushed up, and that both Mr. Muir and Mr. Kennedy were in it. (Laughter.) Witness further questioned, said that, according to instructions, he wrote to Mr. Freke Palmer stating that he knew sufficient to clear Mr. Watt from the charge which had been brought against him, and that he could communicate with him at a certain place in the North of England, which he mentioned. That letter was written to Mr. Palmer on directions given him by Mr. Watt. In answer to this note, Mr. Palmer replied, If you are in London I shall be glad if you will give me a call." Witness proceeded to say that he had general interviews with Mr. Watt at his house. On one occasion when he went to Mr. Watt's house at Knightsbridge he was introduced to a gentleman, who was described to him as Mr. Rufus Isaacs. (Laughter.) He, however, afterwards found out that this gentleman's name was Bernard Abrahams. Witness did not know that, how- ever, until the day after he had given his evidence. "PERSONS IN HIGH PLACES." I in answer to turwier questions, said that he went through his evidence four or five times after he had given it. Abrahams was round about" at the time, and Lady Violst was also there. He was during this time given plenty of champagne a.ud brandy, for he was getting a little nervous. Mr. Gill: Was anything else said in the course of the conversation?—Yes, a lot; but, as the names of persons in high places were mentioned, and certain things were said, I would rather write it down. The Magistrate: I don't think we need keep anything quiet. Everything should be open and above board. Witness further volunteered .the statement that when he found he had been deceived by the statements made to him he almost went down to Scotland Yard. He had, how- ever, from that point made up his mind that he would state what he had just stated if the case went for trial. Mr. Muir said the evidence they had just heard gave rise to a. situation which required careful consideration by Mr. Palmer and himself. There were. however, one or two Questions he might put. Mr. Muir then questioned the witness as to his association with Mr. Palmer in the matter. In reply, witness said that Mr. Palmer did not know anything about these interviews and conver- sations with Mr. Watt. Mr. Palmer had been perfectly straight, and had warned them that it was no use giving any evi- dence that would not stand, thorough inquiry. ORDERED NOT TO LEAVE THE COURT. r I I Mr. Gill: I hope you will give orders lor Lightfoot not to leave the court. The Magistrate: Yes; he must remain. Mr. Gill: I must ask you, under these circumstances, not to renew bail. The Magistrate: I do not see any reason, beoa.use I think Mr. Watt will be sure to come, and that is all that hail is intended to ensure. Mr. Gill then mentioned that the wit- nesses Worley and Shuttle h'ad been molested by the "other side." The Magistrate: That might alter the posi- tion if it could bo proved. Evidence was 'then given on this point, but the Magistrate said he did not think it was proved that those who had molested the witnesses were the agents of Mr. Watt. He should not, therefore, take any actton. but if anything were done to the witnesses they must communicate with the police. The case was then adjourned till Friday, the 27th inst. The defendant was admitted to bail on the same conditions as previously.

Exciting Canton Scene. I SHOP FRONT SMASHED IN I A runaway horse, attached to a cart, did extensive dama-ge in Alexandra-road, Canton, this morning. The cart was slewed against a shop window as the horse tried to clear the corDer of Atlas-road, and the shop front was completely smashed in. The wheels came off the cart, and the horse, which received several cuts from the glass, was held fast. The scene was an exciting one in the extreme, as the horse kicked and struggled to get free. Ultimately the animal was pacified and taken off to a, vet.

SOUTH WALES TEMPERANCE ASSOCIATION. LIVELY PROCEEDINGS AT THE SWANSEA CONFERENCE. The annual conference of the South Wales a.nd Monmouthshire Temperance Msociation was resumed at Mount Pleasant, Swaneea., on Thursday, Mr. W. L. Daniel (president) in the oha,ir. Resolutions were paesed expressing grati- tude for the religious awakening which had placed fresh obliga;tions on the Churches to make total abstinence a condition of mem- bership; and urging authorities to deal with the subject of scientific temperance instruc- tion in schools. The Rev. I. Rees (curate of Foohriw) sug- gested that to make Church memberehip conditional on total abstention was laying down a condition not existent in God's Word. and the Rev. Tertius Phillips said that, if carried out, such a condition would break up the great bulk of the Churches. TRADE BRIEFS. The JSev. liees, Evans (Llanwrtyd) moved a resolution that as friendly effort bad failed to prevent Welsh members of Parliament who were barristers from taking briefs from the "trade," all temperance friends must be exhorted to endeavour to provide as candi- dates those who pledged themselves against supporting the drink traffic in or out of the House. The Rev. T. Morgan (Skewesn) said that every minister who received financial assis- tance from those in the "trade" was equally interested. (Cries of "No.") Mr. Phillips: Oh, yes; any minister who receives money in supply fees or any other way is affected, although not to so great a degree. Loud cries of dissent followed this. The Rev. Mr. Parry (Llansamlet) protested against the statement that ministers received money from the "trade." He would not preach a sermon to help a publican get a licence, but if a publican dropped 6d. into the collection-plate when he was preaching against his trade he could not help it. Air. Phillips said he did not wish to reflect on his brethren, but, personally, he had never received a, penny from any member of the "trade." Perhaps he ought to have done so, but, as a matter of principle, he had not. I There wera calls on Mr. Phillips, and he withdrew any insinuation. The resolution was carried by 27 votes to five. A COMMITTEE FOR WALES. r The Rev. Tertius Pniiiips moved the follow. ing resolution, which was carried:— That all candidates deserving the support of the Welsh electorate should declare openly in favour of (a) amending the Licensing Act of 1904 in such a way as to repeal the compensation clauses, or limit their application to a reasonably short period, and restore the unfettered power of the licensing authority in dealing with all licences, not excepting the pre-1869 Beer- house Licences; (b) direct popular veto, and separate treatment for Wales; (c) amending the Welsh Sunday Closing Act on the lines of Mr. John Herbert Roberts's Bill, including Sunday Closing for the county of Monmouth; (d) placing all clubs where intoxicants are distributed under the full control of the licensing authority; and (e) closing all places where drink is sold or distributed on all election days, whether Parliamentary or municipal. That a consultative committee, represent- ing the religious communities and temper- ance organisations, be convened at a cen. tral place for the whole of Wales at an early date, to give effect to the above re- commendations. Speaking to a resolution on the connection between lunacy and drink, Dr. RJIys Davies, Swansea, said there were in Glamorgan 1,135 people in asylums, Z5 per cent. owing to drink. When they got an asylum for Swan- sea, he hoped it would be put on Town Hill, where it could be seen, as a permanent warn- ing of the intimate relation between insanity and alcohol. EVENING MEETING. I A well attended public meeting was held in the Albert-hall in the evening, and was presided over by the Lord Bishop of Llandaff (Dr. Pritchard Hughes), who appealed to all lovers of the nation's welfare to deny them- selves the little comfort they might get from a drink for the sake of others. He had been an abstainer for 29 years, and he advised them to try it There were two classes that kept the drink trade going-first, the large number of people anxious to make a lot of money, and, secondly, another large class who wanted to have drink and didn't want to spend the money to get it. Little could be done with these pecple, but it was the duty of every man to help the uplifting of every class in the community. "Don't wait for legislation," said the bishop; "begin at once.

NEW TREDEGAR CHAMBER OF TRADE. I Tbo Isew iTeaegar una.moer or Trade have decided to form a mutual plate-glass insur- ance society. It was also resolved to press forward the matter of connecting the town with the roadway to Tredegar by a new route via Abertysswg, and thus avoid the neighbourhood of the slip, which, it is stated, is not quite .tree from eubeideaoes.

KEMPTON PARK. I Starters and Selections. KEMPTON PARK, Friday Morning. After the conclusion of yesterday's pro- ceedings at Leicester, the racing forces divided, one-half going to London for the Kempton Park Meeting, and the other half travelling to Liverpool and Manchester for the Haydock Park Meeting. Of course, the most important fixture is Kempton Park, where one of the best programmes ever formulated by a, racing executive has been put forward for the meeting which com- mences here to-day, and the gathering, which has always stood high in the estimation of the public, looks like well maintaining its prestige. The weather outlook is fairly promising, and all fears on the score of going can be instantly dismissed. All the stabling is already bespoken, so that large fields will be the order of the day. The rich Imperial Produce Plate stands otft as the prime attraction, and for this some of our best juveniles will be seen under silk. However, the issue seems confined within narrow limits, for on public form garoella should take care of nearly all his opponents. At Manchester Sarcella gave Albert Hall 191b and a beating, form which would hold Gorgos and Canterbury Pilgrim filly abso- utely harmless; but when one takes into con- sideration the fact that this race has been more often won by on outsider than a favourite (especially from Fallow's stable), it would be wise to try and look for the winner elsewhere, and an imy endeavour to do so I shall take DAME AGNETA COLT.

CHURCH REPAIR WORK. INTERESTING BAZAAR AND FETE AT ABERGAVENNY. OPENING CEREMONY PERFORMED BY LADY LLANGATTOCK. Lady Llangattock opened a bazaar on Thursday at the Town-haJI, Abergavennj- in aid of the Llanvapley Church and R-ec- tory Repair Fund (Deao Williams' Memo- rial). There was a large and distinguished gathering, over which Mr. Codrington Craw. shay, D.L., J.P., presided. The spacious hall had been prettily decorated for the occasion. The Chairman introduced the Rev. E. Man- sel Townshend, M.A. (the rector of Lkin- vapley), who read the financial statement. La.dy Llangattock afterwards declared the bazaar open. She said she considered it a privilege to be present, and to have the pleasure of opening that beautiful "Fairy Tale" Bazaar and Fete. All her sympathies | were with the work for which the bazaaj had been arranged. She felt sure all preseat knew how hard the Vicar of Llanvapley hixl- worked to get his church in good repair, and for his magnificent efforts they were there to help him defray the great expense of the work. It was always a great satisfaction to Lord Llangattock and herself to take part in any ceremony which aided the restoration of one of their old churches. In these days, when their lives were crowded with so many interests, it was imperative that they should guard against losing sight of the needs and claims of their Mother Ciiureh. How often, they heard it said that they belonged to the greatest Empire in the world, and they were proud that they belonged-to this great Em- pire, proud of its greatness, but did they ever pause to think that the basis of their national greatness might be their religion and the Church to which they belonged and which they could not prize too highly? In conclu- sion, her ladyship trusted that the Vicar of Llanvapley would be rewarded for his loyalty to his Church, and thanked the workers for their kind and generous assistance towards making the bazaar a success. (Applause.) J Colonel Maneel proposed a vote of thanks j to Lord and Lady Llangattock for their courtesy and the kindly interest they took I in the bazaar. Whenever there was anything: to be done in oonneetion with military, 4 clerical, or national matters they were always ) t.) be found. (Applause.) j Councillor J. C. Gwatkin (the mayor-elect), } in the abseuce of the mayor, seconded, and J Lord Llangattock suitably responded. I The Rev. E. M. Townshend proposed a vote of thanks to the patrons, and mentioned i specially that Lord Tredegar was the first to  give a donatiQD, Lord Llangattock, Lord Aber- gavenny, Colonel Mansel, and Mrs. Newton Jackson following in rapid succession.
