Strange & Lonely Life' I BROTHER OF INDIAN ASSASSIN SPEAKS I Last night a representative of the Daily Chronicle had an interview in London with tbe younger brother of Madar Lal Dhingra. A quiet, smooth-cheeked, slimly built youth, he offered a striking- contrast to the rugged- faoed Indian who now lies in Brixton Prison charged with the amazing assassinatione a,t the Imperial Institute. His only resemblance to his brother, indeed, is that he wears a pair of gold-rimmed spectacles. His eyes grew dim as he spoke of the crime. I It is terrible," he said, with evident dis- ii-ess. "I cannot understand it at ail- I feel it very, very keenly." I asked him how long he had been in England. °, About a year." he said. My brother, you know, has been here over two years.' Have you seen him frequently since your arrival?" No, we have met very, very seldom. I have seen scarcely anything of him. He met me on my arrival in England, but since then we have been almost like strangers to each other." Why did you not live together?" Because he did not want me-that is all." Do you know of any reason for this?" Well, he always liked to be by himself. When we were in India, together he never made a companion of me. He was very re- eerved-exceedingly so. Altogether he Wail I Very Peculiar in His Habits I "When did you see him la.st?" About two months ago." \Yhat did he say?" "Wi,, did not speak." "Has he Writ,tell to you from time to time?" "No", he never wrote. So I have- seldom known what he has been doing. In my letters hove I have occasionally mentioned him, but I have never had very muoh to t II." "So I may take it that you do not know whether he ha,s had any companions or not?" "No, I do not knem at all." "Did you know that your brother in India had written to Sir Curzon WyLlie respecting Madar P" "No, I did not. "You, of course, were not present at the Imperial Institute last Thursday night?^ "Well, I had on invitation to the 'At Home,' but I was unable to go." I then asked him how he first heard of the assassinations. With quivering lips he replied, "When I went out after breakfast on FiVlay miming I saw a placard that there had been some aBBaSBinations by an Indian in London. With just ordinary curiosity I went into a shop a.nd bought a paper. I was horror-struck as I looked at the account which it gave. I saw my brother's name; it was mis-spelt, but clearly Madar was referred to. I did not know what to do. I felt helpless, I epoke to a friend, but there was nothing that he could advise me to do. I was beside myself with grief." "You h ad-no idea- what were the politioa views of your brother?'' "I can't remember that I ever heard him talk very moch about politics. I myself am not very much interested in them. He was, as I have said, exceedingly reserved. He was also somewhat exoita.ble. I oaniiot think what made him to this-unl.ees it is luna-oy." "Have you heard from your brother since b,is arrea?" No, not a word." Finally, he said that he was anxious to go to the Carton-hall to show—silent though his testimony was-tha.t he himself was a. loyal subject, and that the assa-sfeinatione were abhorrent to him. Again, however, h eyes moistenod, afl, maybe, he thought of his brother lying in a prison cell. Thus do the imnooen't suffer with the guilty.

I OUR THIRSTY CLIMATE Whereas there were only 623 charges for M drunkemia&s in the whole of PreLiice during 1907, there were ove-r\WO,Ow convictions during the same period in England and Wales. Theoe figures speak for themselves," says Lord Lamington in the memorandum of a I Bill he is introducing to reform the public- ?t bouse, so that it may bec"me a place for ?N p?Mui-a.b? intercourse, where all sorts ?ot food and refreshment besides drink may be M obtained. "If," he adds, "the English public were provided wit-h the same facilities for pleasure and recieat-i-on as are found in every flourishing Continental cafe, it may safely be concluded that the amount of drunkenness would not have reached such high figures as t.hbse.

0 MADLY IN LOVE. A strange tragedy took place on the Danube steamer oeef Karl when it arrived at the Roumanian port of Ziurgieyo yester- day.

I BOTTLESA WEAPONS FREE FIGHT AT THE DOCKS Participants Badly Mauled ARREST OF TWO CHINAMEN Aii-other of those racial free fights which are so often associated with Bute-street, Car- diff Docks, occurred on Tuesday, the con-, tsustants being white men and Chinese. The Orientals freely used heavy lemonade bottles as weapons of attack, and those who could not get bottles took off their slipper6 and used the heavy heel end upon the whiter. Two Irish seamen, Michael Sheehan and Jacob Mills, were seriously injured, and pad to be attended to by Dr. Buist, whilst a large number on both sicte6 were badly mauled. Two Chinese were arrested and kxiged in Bute-street Police-station, and further arrests may follow. The low had iLs origin at about one o'clock, when Sheerhan and Mills, both sailors and living in Patrick-street, Docks, were walking up through Bute-street into town. When near the Penarth Ferry Boat entrance and right in the midst of the Chinese quarter, Mills collided with a Chinee. A quarrel ensued, which developed into a fight between the two. The police parted them, and Mills and Sheehan proceeded town»rjvLk Returning to the dock at three o'clock they found several Chinamen waiting at very near the spot of the morning row. The parties had no sooner come together than the Chinese immediately started the fray. A free fight quickly developed, other whites who were near at hand coming to the rescue of their countrymen, whilst scores of Chinese poured forth from the adjacent doorways. Police-constable Price, who was on duty, was powerless, and it was not until a strong force, under Inspector Bo-n Davies, had arrived on the scene that the row was quelled. They arrested Hai Chang, an assis- tant in a Chinese grocer's shop, and Lee Leong, who also keeps a shop. Sheehan was bit over the head with a bottle, and has a nasty jagged wound; whilo Mills, who during the scuffle had been felled to the floor, was hit on the head repeatedly with the heeljind end of a slipper. Pol ice-Gau rt bequei Ae a. sequel to the racial riot in Bute-street, Cardiff, yesterday, Hai Chang (32) wad charged before Mr. Joseph Howard and other magistrates at Cardiii Police-court to-day with assaulting Jacob Mills. The prisoner presented a wretched appearance in the dock, his face being terribly bespattered with blood. Mr. George David, who defended, said he had a large number of witnesses, but had been unable to get them together. He, there- fore, aeked for a. remand for a week, and suggested that bail be allowed. The Bench remanded prisoner for a week, and granted bail, prisoner in p5 and a similar surety. Mir. George David made a similar applica- tion before the stipendiary in the case in which liee Leong was charged with violently assaulting Michael Sheehan. The Stipendiary: Has there been a renewal of the disturbance? OOllrtrgeant Gregory replied that so far as he knew there had not. His Worship then asked Dr. Buist whetlier the injuries were serious. Dr. Buist replied that there was a big wound on the head, but it was not serious. A remand on bail o.f P-5 and a like surety was granted until Wednesday next.

POLICEMAN V. NAVVY. Sidny Pauling, a navvy, was brought up in custody before Mr. E. W. M. Corbett at Llandair Police court to-day on a charge of being drunk and assaulting the police. Evi- dence was given by Pol'ice-constable Hamil- ton, showing that the prisoner .was outside the "Sportsmen's Best" on Tuesday evening and wastrying to get into the house. He was using bad language, and the constable re- quested him to go away. He refused, a.nd became so violent that he kicked Hamilton on the thigh. The policeman was obliged to draw his staff and knock the prisoner down before he could handcuff hirn, and he could not have done this but for the assist- ance of a bystander, named William Jones, with whose help the navvy was lifted into a trap and driven to the Llandaff Police- station. There were other navvies standing by, and they threatened r. Jones for ren- dering a-fsistance. The prisoner fwas Ie- manded in custody till Monday next.

Her relatives resided in Pontardulais. Mr. Joseph Howard remarked that they did not desire to send her to prison, but it was a very mean thing to do. She was discharged under the Probationers' Act.

HARD LINES ON THE LOVER Yesterday in Shorediitoh County-court a case was heard in which a former lover was ordered to pay his sweetheart's doctor s bill.

LUCKY PRISONER. 5i!1F I While trying an old woman on a charge of stealing faggots a judge who had acquired the habit of thinking aloud unckullsciously exclaimed, Why, one faggot is ae like a,nother faggot as one egg is like another egg." The counsel defending the oase heard the observation, and repeated it to the jury, whereupon the judgie cried. *,op; xt is an intervention of Providence. This was the very thought that passed through IDY mind. Gentlemen (addressing the jury), acquit the prisoner."

MAGISTRATE'S DRY RETORTI You told me you were going home to your I mother yesterday, and I let yov off," said Mr. Joseph Howard (chairman) at Cardiff Police-court to-day to Mabel Graham (23), who is stated to be an ex-s-chooil tether, and who was charged by Police-constable Collier with using bad language in Mary Ann-street.

I Newport Dock Disaster IINCREASE REPORTED IN DEATH-ROLL Messrs. Baston Gibb and So us, the con- tractors at the Newport Docks extension (where the trench caved in last Friday evening), now find that 38 men have not drawn their wages, and these are regarded as missing. To some extent, there- fore, this may be taken to represent the total death-roll. The contractors have received hundreds of inquiring letters con- cerning the men from all parts of the country, but one of the great difficulties has been the assumed ns.meti the men adopt. The fifth body in the mortuary ha.s been identified a.s that of Wiliiam Holder, a-ged 29, of Prampton Cotterell. He was badly knocked about the head and face, and was identified by his clothes. KILLED AND MISSING. Messrs. Eastou Gibb and Sons have nftw been able to compile a list of killed and missing. The names are those under which the men worke-d and which appear on the timekeeper's books. Probably in a good many cases they are at*3umed names. The list is as follows: Hatliway, crane-driver. Body removed and identified. lIl, tiinberman. Ga\ in, labourer. Anderson, labourer. Body removed and ideiitiiied as Powell. Coleridge, labourer. Welsh, labourer. W illia.rus. ba,nk<imail. Lewis, labourer. Daley, labourer. Webslor, labourer. Knight, labourer. Lloyd, labourer. Sullhan, labourer. Holder, labourer. Body iemove.d and iden- tified. King, timberman. Anderson, labourer. Fagaii, labourer. Muir, labourer. Parker, labourer. Trent, labourer. Lockyer, timberman. Body removed and identified. Tendry, labourer. Roberts, labourer. Graves, timberman. isitell, la-boarer. Handle, timberman. Rat cliff e, timberman. Hopkins, timberman. Snell, timberman. Williams, timberman. Cox, labourer. Tutor, timberman's labourer, Totts, labourer. Turner, labourer. Doughton, labourer. Body removed and identified as Down ton. Edwards, labourer. Talbot, labourer. English, labourer, 4A, Capel-street, Newport. The injured men in the hospitals are now- reported to be slowly improving. One of the patients, Arthur Davies, ha-s been discharged from the General Hospital in Ca-rdifi- road. The contractors are still strengthen- ing the banks of the trench by tipping sand, but have not yet completed the considera- tion of a scheme for the permanent work. CONTRACTOR AND THE INJURED. Mr. Easton Gibb and his son., Mr. Alexan- der Gibb, visited all the injured in hospital on Tuesday, and cheered them with sym- pathy and advice. The men were told that they need not want for anything whilst they were recovering, and their old cloth- ing would be re-placed. HEROISM WHICH AVAILED. Un to Tuesday it had been assumed that the pluck of the boy hero, Tom Lewis, had bten altogether unavailing, and that the in.iii he tried to save was leL .f) die. It now transpires that that is not so. The man, Fred Bordill, was the last to be rescued alive, and was for some time overlooked, but he is safe in Newport Hospital, and though considerably wrapped up in bandages, is cheerful and speaks highly of the pluck of the boy. BordUl says ho only started work at the trench on Friday-the day of the accident. When he heard the timbers cracking he ran up the ladder, and got up to a platform about 25ft. from the bottom. Whilst he was gettlllg his foot on the next ladder the whole of the timbering in the trench collapsed, and he found himself pinned by his right hand ahd his right foot. His head was thru-t forward on his chest. When he found that the rescue party was trying to get down to him he shouted for a aa,w, thinking that he could cut himself free, but though he cut through part of the ladder he could not free his hand. The boy went down through the orack in the timbers and chipped away for a long time with a hammer and chisel before he was called up by the men above. Bordill thinks he got light-headed before he was finally rescued, as the last he remembers is aeking the boy when he had to lea-ve the place, Are you going to leave me like this?" FIRST FUNKRAL. The first of the funerals-t-h.a,t of Henry Lockyer, of Ba.tb-took place on Tuesday aiieriioon at Newport Cemetery, where the IWv. Henry Morgan (rector of Holy Trinity Ciiurch; otfioiaieu. The deceased's father, two brothers, an uncle, and a.n aunt were present a.e, chief mourners.

Lively Scene in Court JUDGE OWEN AND CARDIFF BUILDER There was a lively eceaie at Cardiff County- court to-day during the hearing of a judgment suraonons brought by Patrick Coles against A. J. Withers, builder, Cowbridge- road, Cardiff. The judge made an order for payment of the debt against defendant on the 4th of March, and since the judgment, it was stated, he had made a dee<i ot atsigu- ment of his property. His Honour (angrily): You go to prison. fo-T 21 days. lit is a bare-faced fraud on the court Go away. Defend ant: Allow me to tell you I am not a fraud——. His Honour: Go away. Defendant (sturdily): T don't think you are justified in saying what you did, your iiono ut. litie Honour (with increasing aaiger): Go a.way. (To an oiiicer): Take him out of the court. His Honour thereupon made an immediate order for imprisonment, and the defendant, who appeared very angry, was ushered out of court by the officials.

I Died on an Electric Car TRAGIC END OF A CARDIFF WORKMAN A sensational discovery was made on one of the Cardiff Corporation electric cars about half-past eight this morning. At Clarence Bridge a respect ably-dressed man (who has since been identified as George Westgatq Perry, aged 53, a black- smith, of 27, Cornwall-street, and in the employ of Neale and West) boarded a car and asked to be put down at Saltmead- road. He then took a seat on top of the car, where there were several other pas- sengers. The car had not travelled far before the passengers were alarmed to see the man's head hanging over the rail with his tongue out. The man's head was raised, and it seemed that life was extinct. Dr. Smith wa-s summoned, and found that the poor fellow was dead, having succumbed probably to heart trouble. The body w-ae conveyed to the mortuary.

I NARBERTH LADY'S ACTION, In the Oourt of Appeal to-day counsel in th cross appeals of Thomas v. Goliins, originally heard at Narberth County-oourt, resumed their arguments on the question of ccsts. Mr. Green for Mr. Colliiwi, the urusuc- ceettful appellant, applied under a clause in the Marired Women's Property Act that Mrs. Thomas, who wa.s possessed of means, and who had initiated the litigation, should pay the coets ordered by the court. Mr. Row- latt oppo-sed the apilica-tion. Ni- Green said sir ce the previous day he had looked into cares, and there was no doubt the court could make the order. Mr. Rowlatt said there was no doubt Mrs. Thomas commenced the proceedings by issuing the originating summons, and he suggested the coste against her be confined to the county-court action, After argument, the Master of the RoHs ¡;:aid this was unifortuaiate and unwarranted litiga- I tion. Where a lady had instit uted proceed- inge. of this kind she was liable for under Sedtion 2 of the Married Women's Property, October, 1893. There would be an order against her for the costs in the county- oourt of the appea.1 to the Divisional Court, the coists for the application for leave to appeal, and of the appeal.

I Cardiff Sessions The midsummer quarter sessions for the city of Cardiff were resumed to-day in the Law-courts, before Mr. B. Francis Williams, K.C., recorder. Seaman Robs Seaman. Henry Bendte (32), seaman, was charged with stealing a seaman's bag, the property of the Great Western Railway Company, on May 14. Mr. Olive Lawrence (instructed by Mr. Parsons, from Messrs. Vachell and Co.) prosecuted. It appeared that an Irish sea- man namea Michael M'Grath, was proceed- ing from the Great Western Railway station in the city to his home at Waterfol'd, and got a porter to take his kit bag out of the left luggage room, and label it. Just as the porter was about to put it in the train the prisoner came up and said, "Don't put that bag 'in the train. It belongs to me." The porter went to find the owned, but failed as the tram was moving out, and when he came back he found the bag missing. In the meantime the prisoner had deposited the bag, which contained a seaman's kit, in the cloak-room, and when he returned for it he was given iaito custody. Sentence of four months hard labour was passed. Charge of False Pretences. .Samuel ISaotli, or Ness, (23), picture dealer, was charged with obtaining money by false pretences from various parties during April and May. Mr. St. John Francis-Williams (instructed by Messrs. Harold Lloyd and Cross) prosecuted. From the for the prosecution it appeared that the prisoner went about and also sent out a widow, named Madeline Pratt, for the purpose of selling a preparation which be told people was Zam- Buk ointment. As a matter of fact it was nothing of the kind, but a preparation which the prisoner had made himself. Prisoner at the police-court admitted that it was not Zam-Buk, but stated that he had never told people that it was so, eaying that it resembl^ ed Zam-Buk. Prisoner, on oath, stated that during the last eigh,t years, (since he had been in England, he had been occupying his time in the photography and drapery line. Later when he had nothing to do he made the ointment, and told people tha-t it was similar to Zam-Buk ointment. He soid it ae Omega ointment, and had no intention of selling it as Zam-Buk ointment. Mrs. Pratt had, he alleged, gone about stat- ing that she was selling the ointment for the Zam-Buk Company, and was paid J61 lis. a week. MT. St. John Francis-Williams: I can understand, you wanting green cuiatomers- (laughter)—but why did you want greefl ointment P Prisoner: For no particular reaso.n. (Laughter.) Is Zam-Buk ointment green ?—-Yes; I learned that afterwards. Have you ever tried it on anybody ?—Yes, on myself. (Laughter.) M.r. St. John Francis-Williams (reading from the printed bill, referring to the pro- (pereiee of the oiutmentin curing oertain diseases): Have you had all these thino?- Some of them. I see it is said the ointment was need in all the principal hocpitals throughout the kingdom. (Laughter.) Give me the name of one which used this Omega ointment?—I can- not give you one. lteoommended by medical men." (Laugh- ter.) Can you give me one name?—I do not know bis name. (Laughter.) 'Dhe Recorder: It is lilte the green colour. You don't know..(Laughter.) Mr. St. John Francis-Williams: I see the address of the Omega Company is given as London. The bill is tig-tied, "Yours truly, Omag-a Company, London." What is the London address? Prisoner: London. (Laug-llter.) MT. St. John Francis-Williams: That is as likely to find them, as anything. (La-ugbter.) The Recorder: It is as near as you can guess ? (Laughter.) Prisoner Yes. You were afraid of people mistaking your ointment for the other?—Quite correct. (Lanigtater.) You thought it would hinder the oale of your ointment, and you did not like to risk it? Prisoner returned no answer. Nothing was known against the prisoner, and senteaice of four months' impilwoiiment with hard labour was poaeed.

The" Spo-rtsman to-day publishes the fol- lowing-letter received by them .—Sir, Permit me, on behalf of Young Otto, of America, to challenge the winner 01 the Welsh-Jo»ei>ns conteist, which take, place on July 12.

Hoping to hear from AVelFli or V,9U for vour k iii?dness Joseph.s, and (hanking- you for your kindness intertillg- this letter—I sm, very truly irs, J a.<k lIJ, mRnagC!' of Young1 Otto. .> aldorf Hotel, Aldwyoh, W.C., July 6. Jem Driscoll to Owen Moran. I Jem Driscoll, of Cardiff, who had su-cii phènümenal sucœ8 in America, and who is due back there in August, ha-s made up his mind that he would like, before goiiig- back, to meet Owen Moran for the feiither-weia'Jt cha.mpionehip (says the Sportemsm "). Yes- terday Driscoll asked our representative, "South Wa-lian," to state that he (DriseohJ would be willing to meet Moran for £100 a-s:<!e, open to more if Moran desires, and the best purse offered, at gct., the feather- weight limit. Corbett and Freddie Welsh. The term Gentleman Jim bas been as-ig"nod to Jim Corbett, the onee-famous pugilist and jioa the well-known actor, who arrived at Queens town iaot night from New York on board the great Cuncw-der, Luiritania. Koferi-ing to pugilism, he said that recently he had the pleasure of meeting in t,he United States F,reddie Welsh. Owen Moran, and Jem I>ri*xiil, England's famous iight-weight boxers, who were the greatest marvels in the world. They had not thc-ir equal. He had seen the trio box repeated! in America, and their ■ioings wore phenomenal. The Yankee boxeiis were all outclassed by them. Freddie Welsh is a. wonder," he said. He added that Welsh had met A be At!ell, the jrremier boxer of America, and had disposed of him in the easiest faehion. Attel had ftated to him in the course of conversation relative to the tight tha.t Welch's boxing prwers were something that he oould not realise. The Entrlis-li boxer had rained blow after blow on him, and delivered them in ouch a scientific faehion that he was completely outclassed. Bv tl > manly way the trio fought in the riivr, and throug-h the fair and honourable tactics tihroughout. they had won the eete?m and goodwill of all Americans. Jim Oorbctt remarked that it was his great desire and wish to meøt. Freddie in Eng-land or W^ ales, and hoped to see him box Josephs near Ponty- pridd 90011 for the championship of the world, and predicted for him a certain victory. Jabez White Retires. Acting1 upon medical advice. Jabez lvhite, I the Euglitih lig-iit-weight champion, has i decided to retire from the right (says the Sporting- Chroniole").

Harns, he eaid, was his brother-in-law.
