A. bevy of Monmonthshire a.nd Glamorgan M.Pe., who had accompanied him, were in a. saJoon adjodaung the Princea carriage. The train consisted, simply of two saloons, which were beautifully decorated with floral Cutting's and other blooms, and two brake Tans. Mr. Morris, superintendent of the line, was in charge of the train. When the Prince, looking very happy and well, arrived rain was falling in a drenching shower. Lord Tredegar received the Hoyal visitor on the platform, and presented to him the mayor (Mr. Pred Phillips), the high- sheriff (Oolonel Wallis), and the officer com- manding the troops (Colonel Slee). The Mayor then presented the member for the borougih (Mr. Lewis Haetom), the member for South Monmouthshire (Oolonel Ivor Her- hert), the town-clerk (Mr. Newman), the ex- mayor (Mr. Lisoombe), the deputy-mayor (Alderman Clifford Phillips), and the chair- j man of the local committee of the show (Mr. C.

I CORPORATION ADDRESS The party then went outside, amd on a dais in the station approach facing towards Cam- brian-road, the address of the corporation in a handsome casket was presented to tlhe Prince by the mayor. It was read by the own-clerk as foliove:- To Ilis Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, K.G.

NEWMAN, TVwn-clork. I THE PRINCE REPLY His Royal Highness replied as fmlowa:— Mr. Mayor,—I thank you erimoeneay for the kind words of welcome that are contained in the address which you have presented to me. I am especially glad that, as preeident of the Bath and West and Southern Conn ties Society, I have an opportunity of visiting Newport, which I do far the first time since the King conferred upon me the old and historic titfle Prince of Wales. I know that this borough, has not only given the society a ooixklal welcome, but has dome all that was posedMe to coaiduoe to the success of the exhibition, The Princess of Wales is very sorry to be unable to accompany me here to-day, and we both greatly regret that official duties prevent us from availing oafcaelves of the hospitable invitation. which we received from Lard Tredegar, as we had looked forward with much pleasure to visit him on this occasion. I thank you hoaptily for your kind wishes, and I sincerely trust that Newport and its inhabitants may ever eaijoy happi- ness and prosperity. Three hearty cheers were for the Prince. A similar romnd was given for the Princess, and cheers for the King. The band of the 2nd Battalion soutb Wales Borderers played the National An-them as the j Prince took up hiis position on the dais, all present, including the Prince, nncovermg. The Prince, in a short conversation with djord Tredegar, expressed has regret at the -unfortunate weather, and said that flhe paarty might wait for a few mixuntes until the tthower ceased. This was done, and at 11.50 the party IÙ'Ove away to the show ground, his Royal High- ness entering Lord Tredegar's large laxidtan, drawn by four bays, with two outriders. He was accompanied by Lord TredegaT amd Sir Charles Cust. Hearty cheers were given as the carriage passed into High-street and m-ade for the Newport Bridge, en route for theshowyard, There was a reversal of the atmospheric conditions at the Bath, and WeFt of Englmd Show to-day. Yesterday the vile weather in j the early morning gave way to a brighter state of things as the day advanced. To-day the early morning was beautifully fine, but towards eleven o'clock gusty breezes were experienced, and dark, studding clouds were seen on the horizon which betokened a coming storm. At 11.30 the whole sky became overcast with dense masses of heavy clouds, and in a few minutes a terrific storm burst over the show-gronnd. For a space of about twenty minutes the watedy elements fell in a torrential deluge, and all the visitors in the ground ran helter-skelter to the tents and stalls for shelter. It was a most unfortunate happening, for the arrival of the Prince of Wales was expected very shortly afterwards. It was obvious, too, that a great deal more rain would follow. This meant that the conditions under foot would be wretched in the extreme. The turf had been churned up badly by the • thousands of people that had passed over it yesterday, and to traverse the m-»in avenue mMnt tramping tln?-h mul up to t?- ankles. Streaiuous efforts were made by the executive committee to rectify this unplea- sant state of the turf, and during the morn- ing a huge lorry of straw was strewn about the field, thus rendering perambulation through the show more enjoyable. The Attendance It was palpable that there was a much larger attendance an the first day, and, when the rain again cleared about 12.30, the numerous visitors were able to enjoy the exhibits and the judging. Onte of the pro- minent visitors at the show was the Marqu-ess of Bute, who, with Mr. E. W. M. Corbett, left ¡ Cardiff by the ten o'clock train. Another party of gentlemen Who passed the press- R P 'r, viz., room was a sextette of Welsh M.P.'s, viz., Mw--rs. D. A. Thomas, W. Abraham, T. Richards, J. Williams, W. Brace, and Donald Maclean. Welcomed in the Rain I Merciless rain pouring down in torrents failed to damp the ardour of the thousands of people who lined the route from the station to the show ground-& distance of ibout a mile and a half—and the Prince could not but have felt gratified by such a. genuinelp enthusiastic welcome. The ladies of Uskside made a particularly striking show, and,it was a thousand pities that they and their pretty dresses and picturesque hats should have been forced to brave the elements. Fortunately there was a cessation of the downpour when the precession was made to the show-ground, and the gleams of sunshine helped people to forget the discomfort of their drenohing. On either Bide of High- etreet and Caerlecm-road, all along the line, men and boys in a variety of uniforms were standing at "attention," amd all sainted tlhe Prince as he passed by. A numter of bands posted in different places played the sweet, tuneful inrusic of "God Bless the Prince of Wales." From the windows of nearly all the house, large and small, Union Jacks were waved by loyal Usksiders, and there was not a single break in the oantmraity of cheers. Men lifted tBeir hats, and women and children who were not possessed of flags waved their white handkerchiefs, the eoeaIe x being one of lively animajtAon. Of course, there were elaborate decorations in the streets, the flags and streamers flying from Venetian masts, pillars, and wha/tnot, wihile the mottos which spanned the rood here and there were tasteful and proper both in colour and text.

MURDER SYNDICATE. IO
MURDER SYNDICATE. O COLD-BLOODED STORY BY CHIEF ACTOR. I Strychnine in Morning's Milk. Thrilling as was Orchard's testimony yes- terday (wires the Press Association corre- eipondent at Boise, Idaho, this morning), to- day promises still greater excitement, as Orchard will continue the recitation of his career of crime up to the murder of MiE. Steunenbarg at Caldwell by bomb. Almost from the moment when Orchard took up his position oil the witness-stand ho told his story in short, easy tones. Twice the eyes of Orchard and Haywood, the accused, met, and they gazed fixedly at each other. Neither gave way. Before yesterday afternoon's adjournment Orchard, without displaying the slightest feeling, related the story of how he blew up the railway staition at Independence, Colorado. He said that Haywood a-nd others anticipated a split-up in the convention, and if something were done at Cripple Creek they thought that the excitement around there would maske everything go all right, and the delegates would go home. So it was planned to blow up Independence station. He gave Steve Adam. money to purchase powder to be used. On the following night be was informed by Sherman Parker that several members of the convention were coming to Independence to investigate the conditions there, and was told to hold off until they had left. "They left on the Sunday morning," con- tinued Orchard, "aTLd on Sunday evening we placed 1001b. of powder beneath the plat- form, we attached a. wire, and awaited the train's arrival. The train brought non- Unionists. Steve Adams and I both pulled a string, upsetting several bounes of sulphuric acid, which ra n over into a box of giamt caps. Mese exploded the powder. The station was wrecked, and 'twelve or fourteen per- sons killed." Orchard said ttoat after camping for peveral days he went to Denver and met Haywood, Pettibone, and Kirwin, who was now acting as secretary of the Western Federation of Miners. They spoke of the Indefpendence explosion, and Pettibone declared he was well pleased with the job. j I Haywood said it was a. good thing, and everything had gone well in the convention. Orchard told Haywood that he wanted 300 dollars. He said he would send them by Petti-bone, and on the following day Petti- hone gave Orchard that amount. Adams said that he had received 200 dollars. Orchard next related how, when he learned that he was "wanted" for blowing up Inde- pendence Station, he went to Dakota. While there he received a letter from Petti bone, saying that he (Orchard) was accused of the ImAepmdence affail. He then returned to Denver, demanded and received a sum of money, and was sent to San Fransico, with instructons to locate Fred Bradley, formerly maaager of the S-aUlvan and Bunker's Hill Mine, in Idaho. He went to B-dleylo home on the morminir when the mNk vas delivered a.nd placed Strychnine in the-Can. The poison failing, he purchased 1íHb. of gelatine powder, of which he made a. bomb. He arranged it so that when Bradley opened the door it vmuld explode. Asked as to the resul/t, Orchard sai_ d that when Bradley otpened the door the next morning the explosion blew out the front of the house and blew him into the street. After this Pettibone sent 450 dollars to OrchaaxL who made no further attempt on Bradley, as the latter was badly injured. In the latter pairt of his evidence yester- day afternoon Orchard said that before the Gregory murder Parker an-d Davis told him of a plot to wreck the Florence and Oripple Creek train near a. curve in the mountains, where the train would plunge into a gulch far below. Parker said something must be done to scare off the "soabe," who were takwii to the mines and home again over that line. At the time Orchard said he had not been paid for the Vindicator job (the wrecking by dynamite of the Vindicator Mine in Novem- ber, 1903, when two men were killed), and he was without resources. He accordingly decided to tell the railway authorities about the plot, because he wanted his money. He did tell one railroad man, thus preventing a disaster. Moyer, he said, attended the trials of Parker and Davis, who were charged with causing the explosion in the Vindicator Mine and with attempted train wrecking. The witness stated that he frequently saw Moyer a.t that time, and that the latter told him that he thought it was better not to do anything while the trials were Tn progress. The most important piece of evidence supplied by Orchard in the after- noon, however, was has aiecount of how he blew up the railway station at Independence, Colorado, by the direction of Haywood, Potta- bone, Simpkins, and Parker. There was a tremendous crowd of people in the ooart-nooan in the afternoon. So great was tlhe crush that the attorneys connected with the case only succeeded in wedging their way into court with the greatest difficulty, 1 Steunenberg's Murder. Earlier in yesterday's proceedings Mr. Julian Steunemberg related on -the witnes8-Gtaa*d the conversation held with him by Orchard three daya before the murder of his father. Orchard told him he wont-ed to buy some sheep from MT. Steunenberg, and witness stated that his father would return home on the following Friday. Witness was going home with his uncle on the night of his father's death, and was two blocks behind h'5 father when the fatal explosion occurred. Further evidence was given, and then Orchard himself was called. He confessed to being the actual perpetrator of the crime, which is alleged to have been planned by the inner circle" of the Western Federal tion of Miners, of which Haywood was secre. tary. Witness, who stated that his real naane was Alfred Horsdey, and that he was a native of Ca/nada, described how the blowing up of mills and other outrages were planned and carried out by the Federation, and the part he himself had played as the hired mtine- wrecker of the organisation. At the time of the outrage a.t Coeur d'Alene, Stennenberg was a Governor of the State. Witness was offered JS100 for sending a bomb into the Vin. dicator Mine, when the superintendent, M'Cormick, and Milbeck, the shift boas, were killed. Afterwards Hacywood and Moyer asked witness if he could fix up a scheme to kill Mr. Peabody, Governor of Colorado. Witness agreed, and was given a mam na.med Ademis to assist him. They were on Mr. Peabody's trail for three weeks, and oooe failed to kill him because a lady was with him. They then determined to put a bomb under the aide walk, and explode it as the Governor was passing. Adams actually made the bomb, but found a difficulty in placing it in accordance with the plan, which in the end was abandoned temporarily in order to kill Mr. 117te Gregory, a detective in Denver. Orchaid then described the killing of Gregory in Denver. "I shot him thrice myself amd killed him," said witness. Next day he discussed the crime with Haywood, Moyer, Pettibone, and Simpkins, all of whom expressed them- selves as well satisfied with it as a good job." Moyer paid him .£4û. and Haywood later, in Moyer's office, gave him CW, for blowing up the Vindicator Mine.

BABY UNDER A BED.
BABY UNDER A BED. I A SPLOTT MYSTERY I Police Arrest a Widow. I ACCUSED A HANDSOME WOMAN I "Someone Else Is In This As Well As Me." A sensational arrest wae made in the Splott district of Cardiff yesterday afternoon (as briefly reported in last night's Pink Express"). The prisoner is a widow, named Leslie James, aged 42, and she is charged on suspicion with killing an infant two or three days old. The facts, so far ascertained, appear to be as follow: A month ago Mrs. James went to lodge with a Mrs. Wilson at 132, Portmanmoor-road, taking with her a young baby, which is still alive. On Monday Mrs. James received a telegram, a; d said she was going to meet a train. She returned with a, paper parcel, and on Wednesday morning Mrs Wilson, in making the bed, found the parcel between the bed and the mattress. Being suspicious, she opened it, and found that it contained the body of a newly-born child. She at once gave informa- tion to the police. The accused appears to be of superior education. She is -a fine, handsome woman, with fair hair, ig a good musician, and is clever at needlework. I Mrs. Wilson's Statement Naturally, Mrs. Wilson is very much upset that suoh an affair should have happened in her house, but she consented to make the following statement to one of our represen- tatives:— Mrs. James came to me about a month ago, bringing with her a baby girl. apparently about three days oad, and took rooms. The child was fairly well dressed, and Mrs. James gave me to understand that she had her from Bristol. She also had in her posses- sion about CI2 in gold. On Monday Mrs. James received a tote- gram, amd she told me it had reference to a baby, and she bad to meet a train. She left the house about mid-day, and returned in the evening, bringing with her a parcel. She was then the worse for drink. This morning I went to her bedroom and found her in bed. I induced her to get up, and in maikmg the bed afterwards I found a parcel at the foot, between tbe bed and the maffctresis. At ifrst I thought it was a bundle of elot/hes, 'but on examining it I found it contained the body of a Howljwborn baby-girl" "What did yon I asked Mrs. Jaanes what was the mean- ing of it, and she asstsred me there waa nothing wrong, &ud began to cry, I told her I would report the matter to the police, and I did, with the result that she was after- wardg arrested." According to the statements prisoner made to Mre. Wilson, she had been in serrice at Pontypooi. "She was a womran of ccnjeideraMe musical attainments, added Mrs. Wilson, and was well educated. I would imagine that she had been an actress or a governess." "Had you known her before?" Yes, I knew her when I lived in Canton. She then did some sewing work for me." During some further conversation Mrs. Wilson sand that on Wednesday morning the prisoner received a tetter from a gvntleznan in Manchester asking that the child should be boowht too bam as he was golng abroad. Mrs. Wilson thought the letter was from some gentleman in a good position. Accused Comes from PontypooJ The accused Uvea at 55, Georgesteeet, Pontypool, for about three montba. and arched as housekeeper to a shoemaker naaned David Evans. She Wt the town about May 16, aIIld one day before leaving said she was going to Birmingham, as she had had JE300 ktt ber biv ber udcta.

MnI. James told Evans that her Irushand, wbo was a first mate, had died at awt ami tt,.at she had two children, who were living with her stepmother—a woman in. a good position Mrs. James, who came to Pontypool from Cardiff, was given a. good character by Evans. PRISONER REMANDED. I Someone Else Is In This." I Leslie James (42), was brought up to-day (before tlhe Stipendiary, Mr. T. W. Lewis) charged on suspicion with feloniously killing and slaying a.n unknown female child at Cardiff on or about June 5. Detective-inspector Pavey said that about 2.30 on Wednesday afternoon he went to 132, Portmanmoorioad, and on going into the bedroom on the first floor saw prisoner lying in the bed dressed. At his request pri- son-er got up amd he examined the bed. Underneath the mattress he saw the body of the child, wrapped up in a. toweL The body was removed by Police-constable King to the mortuary. Then prisoner was told she would be taken into custody on suspicion of causing the death of the child. On the way to the Moors Station she said, I am not going to stand all tho blame for this; someone else is in this as well as me. She was detained and subsequently was charged and made no reply.

The question was whether there W'aIS øvtidence upon which the oou;nty- court judge could property find that the dearth of the man was caused by an accident arising oot of or in the course ot the employ- ment. The caarae of death was strangulated hernia, but he said that the hernia was of old otampdlug. Medical evidence was caused on boftfh sides.

Industrial Risks.I
Industrial Risks. 18 NEW DISEASES SCHEDULED I Rise in Insurance Probable, I In the exercise of his powers under the Workmen's Compensation Act, 1906, the Home Secretary has promulgated an order adding no less than eighteen diseases to the schedule (already containing six) enumerat- ing the diseases in respect of which compen- sation is payable. The following are the additions to the schedule:- L Poisoning by nitro- aond amido-deriva- tives of benzene (dinitro-benzol, ajiilin, and others), or its sequelae. 2. Poisoning by carbon bisulphide or its sequelae. 3. Poisoning by natrons fumes or its sequelae. 4. Poisoning by nickel carbonyi or its sequelae. 5. Arsenic poisoning or its sequelae. 6. Lead poisoning or its sequelae. 7. Poisoning by Gonioma Kamassi (African boxwood) or its sequelae. 8. Chrome ulceration or its sequelae. 9. Eczematous ulceration of the skin pro- duced by dust or caustic or corrosive liquids, or ulceration of the mucous membrane of the nose or mouth produced by dust. 10. Epitheliornatous cancer or ulceration of the skin or of the corneal surface of the eye, due to pitch, tar, or tarry compounds. 11. Scrotal epithelioma (ohimney-oweepal cancer). 12. Nystagmus. 13. Glanders. 14. Compressed air illness or its sequelae. 15. Subcutaneous cellulitis of the hand (beat hand). 16. Subcutaneous cellulitis over the patella (miner's beat knee). 17. Acute bursitis over the elbow (miner's beat elbow). 13. Inflammation of the synovial lining of the wrist joint rjid tendon sheaths. Of the above the following relate particu- larly to the coal-mining industry:— Nystagmus: An eye disease affecting miners over thirty who work in thin seams, and who have to strain their eyes in an oblique upward direction. Beat hand: The result of friction of the pick in the hand, and inoculation with an infective poison through an abrasion. Beat knee and beat elbow: Simila/r to beat hand, produced-by kneeling, or friction against elbow. Inflammation of the synovial lining of wrist joint: A form of sprained wrist. Inflammation occurs not through accident, but through a long succession of jars to the wrist, due to working a piök: in hard coal The diseaees numbered 9 and 10 in the list occur among those who handle or use pitch, tar, or tarry compounds. Fuel workers are especially liable. The disease commences with the appearance of small warts, and if unoared for develops into cancer. There is no reason to believe that any of the above disaaees are prevalent in South Wales on a large scale. But their inclusion in the schedule of the new Act must of neces- sity affect the relatione between employers and insurance companies. It will tovohje the re-.a.djœtment of the premiums of insur. seisces, and as in some cases the terms for insurance under the new Act have already been arranged, the promulgation of the order is likely to give rise to some incon- venience. The matter is-one of extreme impofrtanoe to the industries affected, sauce it enormously widens the area. of risk and threatens, even, tually, to sand up the cost of iaasaranoe to a very high figure. It may be pointed owt that disease offers greater facilities for ma&Jgetring than acci- dent. The Home Secretary, however, has made no modiflearfions, as he is entitled to do, in applying these new diseases. Having regard to the possibility otf maCkigering greatly increasing, it is surprising that the Home Secretary has not limited compensa- tion far beat hand beat knee, and beat elbow to cases lasting ovear three wee&s, no ooanpensasticai to be paid tn respect of the first fortnight. As the order- stands, it is cer- tainly of serious imiport to the industries affected, and is lokeiy to have the effect of gresutiy increasing the rates for insurance.

I Powder Vessel Blown Up SEVENTY PERSONS KILLED The "Petit Parisien" to-day publishes further details of the blowing up of a vessel off Saris in a telegram from Tunis. The journal says the vessel, which is supposed to be of Greek origin, in blowing up destroyed several vessels which had approached her. There are 70 killed. The fishermen are searching for the corpses. An inquiry into the affair has been opened at Tunis.

A JUDGE'S IMPRESSIONS Lord CEirien, the Lord Chief Justice of Ireland, in his charge to the jury in a libel case in the Four Courts, Dublin, said that when a professedly religious man came into the box and made a parade of his religion, he (his lordship) looked at the jury, and the jury looked at him, and they hardly believed a. word he said.

Beferring to the subject of smoking, his IxKrdship said there were some people who acknowledged gladly that they smoked because they thought filM the possession of minor vices indicated that they had not larger ones.

CONVICTS CAPTUREDI ! -————.
CONVICTS CAPTURED I ————. Found in a Fowl House. I INTERVIEW WITH RUNAWAYS j "Bedraggled Atoms of Humanity" I After 28 Iiotitb' libefty-NvMch must have been more miserable than any imparison- ment—the two Dartmoor con-viote were re-captured yesterday afternoon. They but- rendered at discretion to General Hunger, and were drrven back to prison with all the honours of war. The story of the escape has already been told in the Evening Express." Two young convicts, Thomas Ellis amd Alfred PaJish, botii twenty-one yean-s old, and both serving three and a half penal servitude, broke away from a oaxting gang at 9.50 on Tuesday morning, and disappeared into the thiok fog before the aetonished wairdera oould give ohaee. As quickly as possible the other prisoners were bundled into ssdety. Then warders were turned pell mell on to the moors. Every road was watched, the railway statlon6 were guarded, on every ridge was posted a. sentinel. But so dense was the fog that pursuit, was out of the question. Hour after hoar went by. Drenching night su-ooeeded cheerless day. Bleak wintry dawn rose OIl the moors and chilled them with his icy blasts. Still, the warders remained at their posts. Suoh was the position of affairs when I arrived at Portsmouth on Wednesday morn- ing at ten o'clock (says a correspondent of the "Daily Chronicle"). I started for the moors on a car, and on the very confines of the town peeked the first sentinel. Poor man! He was but doing his duty, but how incon- gruous he seemed on the great glorious moorland, radiant with the first touch of summer. On the way to Princefcown we passed many such a spectre, now lurking beneath a rail- way axd4 sometimes beating about in the heather, but-and how ludicrous it was!— —always an easy mark for every eye to see. In spite of the organised pursuit by "all J the Kind's horses and all the King's men," it feli to a plain farmex, by name jonn French, who lives at Had-ttarnds Farm, Poet- bridge, to capture the runaways. At two o'edoa yesterday afternoon French went to his cottage. Finding that the door was locked, he decided to wait for his wife, who waa collecting eggs. In the Fowl-House I A few yards away was the hens' house, and suddenly there was a tremendous hullabaloo amongst the fowls. "A rat or a dog," thought the unsuspecting farmer. He walked towards the fowls. But as he moved forward, the bom door slowly opened, and out into the daylight stalked two startling figures—two bedraggled, drenched, muddied men, hatless, etockingless, their teakh obattering with cold. For a moment the three stood stock-still. The fanner was the first to find his tongue. WMüt ee be doin' 'r said be. LookSRg for --U-ng to eat, mister," replied Parisii. "Aye," said his companion, "we haven't had a bate for 24 hours." Just then Mr. French, whose moorland wits had begun to revive, saw sometfJiiQg in Parisii s hand tbt.t made him feel oo. It W'II.S a lwavy' rraty, blunted billhook. What er ee doin' with that? Hadn't ee better give it to me?" he sa.id. Almost imconsciously Parish surrendered the hook, and at a sign from French the two limped painfully into the kitcihen. Tbcwe they potineed on and utterly annihilated six cups of tea, eight pieces of bread and butter, and several pieces of cake. At the other end of the t,.bl,A the end nearest the door—sat Frencii waiting for hie wife. Their Appetites Appeased mesi drew their chairs up to the fire, and soon «nga^txi in eaobeuogiDg views on advant, age of sleejirng dry as compared willi tIbe d--&ats of a ooudh. of wet beathw.

FartunasbeJy for Prineetown, the suspicion lasted oniy a momerit. An excuse, pat on tOO tip of Mr. fioenoh's tocogne, sooothed the other's fearc. It was at this juncture that I happened WPoa this ex traordtnary tea. party, after floundering through as magnificent a stretch of bogiand as ever swamjped all Irishman outside his own country. Did anyone ever see such wrecks as those two convicts? Cropped and unshaven, ragged and soiled, the very crows would have fled affrighted from them. Both Were Without Boots, Ellis had no gtookings, and Parishlis feet pro- truded tbirough the ragged edges of his leggings. What sort of a time have you bad?" said L Parish replied in a monosyllable, ".Rotten." The conversation was obviously flagging. I ventured another observation. You nearly got away." "Ah," replied Ellis, has eyes brightening. -and we would have dome, too, if we d had our own way. But what could we do? I'll tell you what it is. Sleeping on bogs aim comfortable. We're simply soaked to the skin. Look 1" And he caught hold of his drab" trousers with a bruised finger and thumb. The ooarse cloth was almost pasted to the skin. But we had a run for it," he continued "Mile after mile we went until I thoughit we had done something like twenty. But thls chap 'ere," pointing to French, "eays woonly done six or seven. "Every few yards we fell into bogB and pools. When we were not running we had to lie down on the daaiyp g-rocad--& bit o' orl rite, wasn't it, matei" I a&ked how they managed to escape. Ellis said they just dashed away regardless of the musket shots, a.nd as musket shots. as fired by prison warders, are like builerts out of a guspipe, the firing oaused them little anxiety. I trod on very delicate groumd when I aeked the next question. "Did you pbeaa your escape daring iecre»- tion?" There was aitenoe far a. moment, and then Parish turned on me a pair of feverish, bleary eyes, and multkwed, or ralher growied. ma,t,s telling." -Well. tefl me," I rejoined, "bow did you manage to get oway so ezoibl?- "We just made up our minds on the gpur of the moment," said. ElMs, "and ran for u." I Prisoners Again Pitratfe was fast going to teH me more of 'his erperiemoes, when his taile was cut short by a tread on the gravel beyond the door that made even his corpped hair stand on end. Two dark Jorsns 100med on the thres- hold, amd a voice that filled the tany kitchen with dismay, aadd, Wedl. mates, had eacragh?" On the convictfr" behalf Mr. Frtaioh. play- fully declared that there was no place like prison for hungry men. There was a quick movement. Snip! snap! went the braoeleta. and. that was how Dart- moor caane into tie own again. To take a. pair-ho*ee wagonette and drive the prisoners to Prmcetown was a ramtter of little diffiewty. All the way to prison warders and convicts laughed and joked with a good humour that was a sight to behold. A Hamipatead holiday jaunt could not have been memer. When it caane on to radn the warders took off thedr cloaks and cowreri the prisoners. And when at last Prineetown was reached, men, women amd children crowded out of their cottages to cheer. Such waving of hats and handkerchiefs! Such enthusiasm! But not for those two poor bedraggled atoms of hnma.mt.y- jpor uutfm uue iron gates of Dart- moor-a,nd an appearance before the governor.

When Sir George Donglity-'s Select Cbm- I mit-tee of the House of Commons to-day resumed, the coneideratiion of the propoeaJs (for railway extensions in South WaJÆs. the Chairman said he had received a number of letters from private individuals giving him i advioe as to whai. dtiouid be done with the varjous Bills before the Oommittee. Some of the letters were anonymous, and others were signed, but as far as he was concerned they had aJl been consigned to the waste basket and been burnt, but he must say that if there were any more of that kind of thing he should send the letters to Speaker, and take his advice ae to the proper course to [ pursue in the matter. (Sensation). Ma-. Balfour Browne, on behalf of the Bar, concurred in the chairman's strictness, and agreed tiiat the proper course would be to place the matter in the hands of the authorities of the House. After an argument between counsel ae to the best course in order to save time, Mr. Balfour Browne addressed the Committee on behalf of the Alexandra Docks and Railway Oompany, Newport, against both the Barry Bill and the Joint Committee's Bill, whioh, he contended, constituted a. matter of life and dea-th to Newport, which had in the past been in the hands of those great mono- polasts, the Great Western Company, and which had in the past resulted in such injury to the port. While at the other ports there had been competition between other railway companies at Newport, there had been no competition at all, and the result had bee nthat rates charged to Newport were higher than those to other ports in pro- -portion to the distamce. Newport was being deprived of its geographical position on land, and traffic given to other ports which alyeady had a geographical advantage by water.
