NAPLES SHAKEN. L* ————— THREE EARTHQUAKES I A Large Area Affected HEAVY LOSS OF LIFEI f Communications Cut Off Italy has again been visited by disaster. Three formidable earthquake shocks are reported this morning, affecting a wide area. in the Campagna, of which Naples is the principal town on the seaboard. Naples itself has been severely shaken, and the inhabitants are panic-stricken, but no serious damage or loss of life in that town is yet reported. Other districts are not so fortunate, for each cablegram received up to the moment of writing has added to the death-roll, which is assuming heavy dimensions. Telegraphic communications from many of the centres are cut off, and grave fears are entertained as to the fate of villages in 'the earthquake zone. In the centre of the disturbances near Avellino, large numbers of buildings are reported to have been overwhelmed, and the loss of life, it is feared, is heavy. Naples, Salerno, and Avellino are cut off from telegraphic communication. In Foggia the Bovino Cathedral is in danger of collapse. ROME. Tuesday. Central and Southern Italy have been visited by a violent earthquake, which appears to have had its centre somewhere in the neighbourhood of Avellino, in the Gam- Jiagna, eome twenty miles north-east of .Naplee, where large numbers of buildings are reported to have been overwhelmed, and the lose of life is feared to be heavy.

The tmrns of Avellino, Salerno, and Naples have been visited by three formidable shocks, but details are lacking- owing to the interruption of telegraphic communication. Central News. Telegraphic Wires Broken ROME (Tuesday), Later. A dispatoh just to hand from Oalitri reports twenty deaths in that town, and a large number of cases of injury- According to reports now available a large portion of the town h.a.5 been destroyed. Tel,egra-phic wires are broken in several districts, and it is impossible as yet to say what has been the fate of manq villages within the earthquake zone. A special meet- ing of the council of ministers has been called, and the members have now assembled. Central News. Increasing Death-roll I ROME. Tuesday (Later). | It is, unfortunately, becoming evident tha-t I the death-roll in the districts affected by the earthquake will assume serious proportions. Th\ latest news to hand from Oalitri places the number of dead now known a.t 30, while several fatalities are known to have oocurred &t Va-Ilat- A battalion of troops has just left for Oalitri. The first shock was felt at seven minutes past three, and seems to have affected a Wide area, tihough there is no doubt that Celitri and the district round about suffered Biost severely.

Eating Food on Stage I WHY AN ACTRESS OBJECTED I Two theatrical disputes, in whioh M. Henry Bataille, the dramatic author, is concerned, are engaging the attention of the Paris Courts. In the first case M. DevaJ, the director of the Athenee Theatre, &ued Mile. Lantetoe, the well-known aotress, for breach of ocm- tract, claiming L5,000 damages. M. Deval's Oa,se is that he engaged Mile. Lantelme to May the title role in M. Henry Batailie's tiece, Manon, Filia Galante," during the 1909-10 season, and that her sudden refusal to carry out, the contract prevented the per- formance of the play, for which he had already engaged artists and had incurred many expenses. Allle. Lantelme explained through her OOUllsel that she objected to her role in the Dlay on artistic and moral gtrounds. She felt that no artist should be forced to playa.

Memory Injured ? -0 BLAENAVON CONSTABLE ASSAULTED Assailant Sent to Prison for Six Months. A collier named Reginald Smith was charged on remand at Blaenavon to-day with having been, drunk and disorderly at Blaenavon on March 27, and also with having assaulted Polioe-oonstable Conway in the execution of bis duty, and, further, with having done him grievous bodily harm. Mr. Forest Lyne (New- port) appeared for the prosecution; Mr. Hugh Jones, B.L., Cardiff, was counsel for the defence. In opening the case, Mr. Lyne said that ever eince the day of the alleged assault the unfortunate officer had not re-gained his memory. and he did not propose to call him as a witness, because he was not in a fit state to give evidence, and also because he had no idea as to what happened on the night of the assault. Whether he would ever get well aigain he could not tell, and, in view of the serious nature of the injuries which the officer sustained, prisomer might well be thankful that he did not stand there on a very much more serious charge. Keginald Watkins, collier, said that Smith, whilst under the influence of drink, walked up to Polioe-oonstable Conway and asked him to shake hands. The officer told him to go home. Prisoner said, "If you don't shake hands I will hit you." With that he struck a blow at the officer, but did not strike him. Conway became unconscious through his Head coming in oontact with the pavement. Smith struck Conway several blows in the face. Joseph Britton, collier, corroborated. He said Smith was affectionately drunk. Oonway was having the better of it, until he had the misfortune to strike his head against the pavement. Police-sergeant Arundel said that after Conway had been carried to the police- statior he went to prisoner's house, and found Bmith hiding behind a fowl's-cot. He had a long carving knife in his hand, and said: Oh, you have come for me. I have been expecting you. but you are not going to take me to-night. There will be murder before you do, but I will come in the morning. Prisoner then brandished the knife, and said, "I will stick the first who puts his hand on me." Subsequently he gave the knife up. and on the way to the police- station said. If Conway would only let me alone I should be all right." In reply to the charge, prisoner said, This hasn't been long about, sergeant, b"t I didn't think you would have me to-night." Dr. D. J. Jones, Pontypool, said when he examined Oonway he found him unconscious and suffering from contusion and laceration of the brain. He was in a dangerous state, and was in a partly dazed condition at the present time. Witness did not think he would ever remember what happened to him on the night he received his injuries. The prisoner was sentenced to six MOAIthsl i mpraean oient.

SWANSEA STONE MASONS I The Swansea operative stone masons last evening received the award of the Concilia- tion Boaj-d in the dispute in whioh notices were given last November. An amicable agrooment has been affected.

NEWPORT AlARD O Dead Against Men" WILL IT BE ACCEPTED? I I !j Mr. Twomey Doubtful The award of the arbitration court in the matter of the Newport Dock dispute was received by some of the parties at Newport to-day, and also by the Mayor of Newport, who received a copy from Mr. Askwith, of the Board of Trade. The leading points of the award are as follow:— That in loading general oargo at, New- port it shall be at the option of the employer to pay men by tonnage rates in accordance with the rates of the port, cr at day wages, as he may think At, and as regards the whole or any part of such ca.rgo, provided that the men so employed by tonnage rate or day wages shall not be engaged at the same time. That a ship's cargo shall be regarded as general oargo when it is composed of seorxl descriptions of goods, whether light or heavy, consigned to one or more ports. That the men shall be employed in gangs of eight, but that the employer shall have the right to divide exietingrs gangs of eight or to add a number not exceeding four men to any existing gang of eight, to employ substitutes for men during to drop out of a gang, such to be paid on the same terms as the men they have The gangs by time shall be engaged by t.be hours of the port, viz.: In summer the day shift shall be from tix a.m. to six p.m., with a half-hour for breakfast and one hour for dinner. The night shift shall be from seven p.m. to five a.m., with two hours for meals. The winter day system shall be from seven a.m. to five p.m., with the same meal hours as in summer. The night shift shall be the .ame as in summer. Men required to work during the hours between shifts shall be paid at the rate of ls. per hour. or part of an hour, in the case >f men on the day shift, and at the rate of ls. 9d. per hour, or part of an hour, in the case of men on the night shift- That men shall not. be engaged, whether gangmen or substitutes, for a shorter period than one half-day or one half-night, ajid any period exceeding such half-day or half- night and not amounting to a full day or night shall be paid for by the hour at the rate of 3d. per hour for day men and ls. 3d. per hour for night men for every hour or portion of hour so worked in excess of the half-day or half-night. That twelve noon shall be the hour to determine the half-day and twelve mid- night shaJl be the hour to determine the half-night. That men not being substitutes or employed for a period of less than three days shall receive an additional wage-rate of 6d. for the day rate or ls. for the night shift. That, having regard to the character of general cargo at Newport and the necessity of some exceptional skill and strength in securing good stowage, the daily wage rate shall be 8a and the night rate 12s. Effect of the Award I The effeot of the award is to give Messrs. Houlder Bros, the option, as they have in some other ports, of loading and stowing general oargo by either tariff rates or daily rates. The terms and conditions of the a-ward are to have effect in the oases of all ships begin- ning their loading a.t Newport on and after Monday next, the 13th inst. Will the Men Accept? I Mr. John Twomey, the general secretary of the Amalgamated Labourers' Union, one of the parties to the arbitration, informed an "Express" representative this morning that he had not received a copy of the award. It had probably gone to his office at Swansea Mr. Twomey stated that some of the points in the award concerned condi- tions which already prevail, particularly with regard to the number of men in a gang and the hours of labour of the port, but. generally speaiing, the award, so far he had been able to follow it, had gone very much aguinst the men, and he thinks it will shake their confidence in arbitration as a means of settling labour disputes very considerably. The awaTd. he said, ps far as it was possible to gather hastily, is not only dead against the men. but against the weight of evidence, and he does not know that the men will be inclined to accept the conditions contained in the awiaaj*. "Dividing the Gang," I Mr. Harry Orbell, of London, in answer to our representative, said that he oould not regard the award as the beat possible. The great evil was that it allowed the employer to divide the gang. It did not matter to the employer, therefore, whether the number of the gang should be set down as eight, when he had the right to divide the eight into four twoe. The terms of the award were only another way of shortening the gang. Men Discontented. There is a grea.t deal of disconrtent amongst, the men at New-port Docks at the findings, and for the present it. is diffiottit to say what will happen. Mr John O'Leary, the local secretary of the National Labour Union, in an interview with an Express" representative, said it was only natonal tibat the men ahonkl feel very deeply agrieved at the findings. "Why, they have been given lee favourable terms than Messrs. Houlders at first proposed. I don't know at present whaJt will be the iresuit. The men will, I think, wait till Mr. Tillett comes here to explain the position, 'as he was one of the arbitrators. j

Private Ball Sequel. I WELSH J.P.'S SON SUED Cheltenham Lady's Plaint I Cheltenham Poliee-eonrt was crowded yes- terday by representatives of society circles for the hearing of the oase brought by Miss Dorothy Havelock, the daughter of a retired colonel resident in the town, who summoned Edward Ma,n?eU Bruce, of Abbey holme, Chel- tenham, a son of the late Mt. A. C. Bruce- PTyce, J.P. of GLamorgan and of Chelten- ham, to show cause, &c. Mr. P. Haddock, solicitor for the applicant, stated that the respective families concerned had been friendly for years, &nd in the autumn of 19C8 Miss Havelook and Mr. Bruce met at a ball given by the Bruce-Pry>oes at Abbeyholme. Late% they attended a private ball in the Cheltenham Town-hall, at which Mrs. Tom Bruce, defendant's sister, was Miss Havedook's ohapeTone. The latter went to supper with defendant, and afterwards to the balcony comdor. In February, 1909, he wrote to her telling her he would act straight ahould any- thing result. He wrote again telling her that he was again off to the "wild and woolly West." In that letteir he pooh-poohed the idea of her condition, and told her if it were true she shoald go to Dr. saying that he had sent her, and th. doctor would piut her right. From Canada he wrote urging her to join him. Fifty pounds had been paid on his behalf by Mr. John Bruce (ba-other of the defendant) and Mrs. Brruce Pryoe (his mother). Miss ILaveJock, a charming young lady, said that at the da.nce at the Town-hall the n- dant put himself down for an unusual number of dances. He also took her into supper, at which they had champagne. The Cleipk How much ? Applicant: A fair amount. There were, she said, indiscretions in a room off the corrklor. The child (a female) was still alive. M'r. John Synnot Bruce, brother of the defendant, adniitted the payments to the applicant, but said they were acts of grace on the part of himself and his mother, and not on bohalrf of has brother. It was stated that the defendant was mar- ried. The Bench made an oerder for SIt. a week until the child is sixteen, and for 4- legal eKjenaes..

THE NEW VICEROY I "Sin Charles Hardinge for India TO SUCCEED EARL OF MINTO The London correspondent of the "Daily Dispatch" is able to announce on high authority that Sir Charles Hardinge, P.C., G.C.M.G., K.C M.G., Permanent Under-Secre- tary for Foreign Affairs, is to succeed Lord Minto as Viceroy of India. Rumour had associated the name of Lord Kitchener with the ofllce which Lord Minto is shortly to vacate, and it is stated that his late Majesty favoured such an appointment, but the Cabinet generally, and Lord Morley particularly, as Secretary of State for India., were opposed to it being occupied by any other than a civilian, and the pest, accord- ingly, was offered to Sir Charles Hardinge. general feeling is that the views of the I King have been over-ruled. 'llie appointment will create no astonish- ment in political and diplomatic life, where the eminent services of Sir Charles to his country are understood and appreciated. He entered the Diplomatic Service nearly thirty years ago, and in that period has gained a pr mnd experience in the capitals of many lands. Diplomatic Service. Born 52 years ago, he is the second son of the second Viscount Hardinge. by his marriage with Lady Lavinia Bingham, daughter of the third Earl of Lucan. He was educated at Hal'>w and Trinity College, Cam- bridge, where he graduated with honours in mathematics in 1380; and he entered the Diplomatic Service in the following year. His first appointment was to Constantinople, where he qualified in Turkish, was promoted to be Third Secretary after about fifteen months' service, and acted as private secre- t-ary to Lord Dufferin, then Ambassador to the Porte. From Constantinople he went to Berlin in 1884, a.nd thence to Washington in 1885. While in the American capital he was promoted to be a Second Secretary, ana acted as Charge d'Affaires. He was transferred to Sofia in 1887, and from that year until 1891 he acted on several occasions as Agent and Consul- General. As Acting Charge d'Affaires in Bukarest he negotiated and concluded with Routeania an extradition treaty and a con- vention respecting false marts of origin on merchandise. After three years' service in Paris he wa. promoted, in 1896, to be Secretary of lie prat km in Teheran, and here, again, he acted as Charge d'Affaires, and also qualified in Per- sian. From Teheran he was promoted, in 1898, to be Secretary of Embassy in St. Petersburg, to which capital he returned as British Ambassador in 1904, afte,r acting as Assistant Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs. It was in October of that year that this country was deeply stirred by the Russian outrage on the Dogger Bank. But Sir Charles, acting in concert with Lord Lans- downe, who was then at the Foreign Office, tided over that tense period of anger that threatened an outbreak of war; and he con- eummated that achievement in the interests of international peace by assisting in the drafting and signing of the subsequent Anglo-Russian agreement In 1906 he returned to England, and was made Permanent Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs-the position he now holds. Sir Charles married in 1890 the non. Wini- fred Sturt, second daughter of the first Lord Alington and a Bedchamber Woman to Queen Alexandra. She is a sister of Lady Chelsea, who was married to Admiral Lambton a few weeks ago. Sir Chariee and Lady Hardinge have two sons and one daughter. Lady Hardinge is an intimate friend of Queen Mary. One of her sons was a page of honour to King Edward, who was his god- father, and he has been the playmate of the children of the present King.

Teeth-Old and New I FATHER AND SON CHARCEO I Two Llanelly men, George M i Her ship (55) and his son OHver (31), were before the Cardiff stipendiary to-day on various charges of obtaining sums of money and also with conspiracy. Mr. Harold Lloyd prosecuted, and Mr. Sydney Jenkins defended. Alfred Jones, of King's-road, Cardiff, stated that he paid £ 3 13s. &d. to the defendants as an instalment for a set of teeth for liisf wife, who had one atnmp removed. Witness did not have the teeth. He understood defen- dants were dentists. Miss Ella Morris, Oatihays, said she went to the defendants* institute, 193, City-road, Cardiff. She paid them Z2 on account of a set of teeth. Witness admitted to Mr. 'Sydney Jenkins that she had L-ince received a set of tooth from a Mr. Rutherglen, who was now occupy- ing the premises. George Rowlands, shoemaker, Blackwei.r, deposed to paying £1 3s. to tihe defendants towards a set of teeth, which he had not received. Witness, answering Mr. Jen;kins. denied giving a promiseery note for the balance due. Frank Wood-ham, haiflier, Inverness-place, stated that he had seven teeth extracted, in preparation for a set he ordered from the defendants. Altogether he paid them but had not received the false teeth. (Proceeding.)

Long Cabinet Meeting IRISH ATTITUDE ON VETO A Cabinet Council was held at the Prime Minister's residence in Downing-street on Monday afternoon, the proceedings lasting upwards of two hours. Muoh speculation was aroused by the move- ments of Mr. T. P. O'Connor. M.P., who paid several visits to the Ministerial headquarters both before and after the Cabinet Council. his visits being naturally associated with the Irish party and their probable attitude on the Veto question. A notice was issued by the Chief Whiv after the Cabinet Council, stating that the vote for Naval Works, Buildings, and Repairs, which appeared as the first Navy vote on Wednesday's order paper, will be postponed to a later date. This is taken to indicate some alteration at the latrt moment in the Government's naval programme. ME. T. P. O'CONNOR'S VISITS. Twice before the Cabinet met—once at one O'clock, and again an hour and a half later— the member for the Scotland Division of Liverpool called at the Whips' Office, and on the second occasion it was observed that he made use of the exit through No. 11, Down- ing-street, the residence of the Chancellor of the Exchequer. Just as the Cabinet was rising, at the end of a sitting of two hours and a quarter's duration, Mr. O'Connor appeared for the third time in Downi^-street, driving up in. a taxi- cab. Meeting the Lord Chancellor and Earl Carrington on the stepb leading from Down- ing-street to the Park, Mr. O'Connor ,.t7?,?, into an animated conversation with them, and afterwards went into 11, Downing-street. IRISH PARTY'S ATTITUDE. It is generally considered that tnese con- sultations have had some direct reference to the business of the Cabinet meeting, and it is further understood that the Irish party are insisting that some definite action shall be taken by the Government on the Lords' Veto question during this session. THE UNIONIST LEADER. Mr. Balfour, who has been doing a good deal of golfing during the recees, reached London on Monday afternoon, but left again in the evening for a further country visit prior to returning to his Parliamentary duties. BREWERS AND THE BUDGET. An important conference took pla-ee at Messrs. Baes and Co.'s offices at Burton-on- Trent on Monday afternoon, when represen- tatives of the leading brewing firms discussed with the Licensed Victuallers' Association the situation caused by the heavy additional burdent3 that have been placed on the licensed trade by the Finanoe Act. Colonel G-retwn presided, and after the proceedings, which were private, stated that the conference dis- cussed technical points involved, and whilst no resolutions were paeeed, it was evident tha.t both branches of the trade were in entire agreement regarding the matters dis- oussed. MR. LLOYD GEORGE AND FOOD TAXES. Councillor Edward Thomas, J.P., of Cardiff, presiding at the Confers-nee of the National Temperance Caterers' Association at Scar- borough on Monday, moved a resolution peti- tioning the Government in any future re-arrangement of taxation to free from duty all articles of food, especially such as tea, coffee, and sugar. which had now become articles of absolute necessity, more particu- larly to the great mass of the labouring population of this country. He had, he said, written to Mr. Lloyd George asking his opinion on this resolution. The Chancellor's reply was marked Private," but he would read a portion of it, as follows: — Anything I might say on the topio of your resolution at the present moment would be apt to be misconstrued.

The resolution was carried unanimously. It was decided that next year's conference be held at New-port, and Mr. Harry Davies, of Newport, was unanimously nominated the president for next year

You must admit that eince your retire from abroad you behaviour hag been sucV as to make it impossible to live with you, aiad I have tried and failed. I am very sorry for the trouble that thi", will bring to you and the family. Nothing will persuade me to refiraot my decision. -So good-bye.
