COWER UNE. GOWER LINE. -0 CONSTRUCTION TO BE COMMENCED VERY SOON. EXCELLENT PROSPECTS. Negotiations are proceeding between the promoters of the Gower Light Rail- ""ay and sol-e influential London gentle- bln interested in similar projects, vrith a view to an early start being Wde with the new line from Swansea tQ Port Eynon. The representative of the latter visited Nausea to-day. He had been over the rcu.nd and expressed himself as being ^•"densely pleased both with the prac- tIcal aspect of the scheme and with -Ic ?rospects of the undertaking. Prov-id- 111g a, reasonable amount of financial £ up port is forthooming locally, it is arramgements will be' made for J.1e work of construction to be put in in the course of the next few ? ee?; Indeed, there is every prospecT ? at least, three mils of the new line being completed and in working order ?y the end of the present year. The cost of the railway is estimated approxi- mately at £ 100,000. 1 A gentleman with a practical know- ledge of such matters declared to a Leader representative to-day that tHe scheme was in every respect a most admirable one. and that the prospects were such that not the least difficulty should be experienced in getting a .very substantial portion of the capital sub- scribed locally. "The finest thing that could possibly happen for Gower," was his description of the project.

SCENE IN -COUNCIL.
SCENE IN COUNCIL. AMMANFORD COUNCILLORS AND QUESTION OF PRIVACY. I MEETINC BREAKS UP. At the monthly meeting of the Am- manford Urban Council, on Wednesday evening, Mr. Wm. Evans had given notice of motion, "That the resolution dealing with the financial part of the scheme for the construction of the pro- posed Maerdy bridge, parsed by the Council at their meeting held 011 the 24th day of April, 1913, be amended by the deletion therefrom of the follow- ing, 'And that the sanction of the Local Government Board to the borrowing oi that sum be applied for, in the resolu- tion of the. 14tu February, 1912, rela- tive to the contribution by the Council 01 £ 500 towards the cost of construct- ing the Rhydymaerdy Bridge, he re- scinded.' And that the resolution dealing with the same matter, and passed by the Council on the 14th day of February, 1912, be rescinded." When ths subject was reached, the chairman (Mr. l). Jones proposed that the Council form themselves into a committee en this matter, and a good deal of heat was manifested in conse- quence. I Dealing in Private. I Mr. Wm. Evans: May 1 ask your reasons. J think it is reasonable ot my- self, having given notice of motion, to ask why the Council should deal with it in private. The Chairman: We have not really dealt with the Llandilo people yet. Mr. Wm. Evans; This concerns the Ammanford people and not people out-I side. I ask you again to consider what you are doing. I can speak to every- thing in my motion by moving an amend- ment, and I will do so. 1 ask you in fairness to the ratepayers. It would be much more honourable 011 your part to have this motion discussed in the proper ,,e d iii the proper way. The Chairman: I will put it to the meeting. 1 think it would be advisable to have it in committee. Mr. Wm. Evans; 1 ask for a precedent in this or in any other Council. Until you know what I am going to say you don t know whether it is not for the I public to hear. A Point of Order. I The Chairman was putting the motion I when Mr. Wm. Evans moved an amend- ment that the matter be dealt with in ¡ the usual way. They in this Council iu February, 1912, passed a resolution to pay £.500 to Maerdv Bridge. There was a condition attached to ¡t I AIr D. G. Davies: J rise to a point of order. Under Standing Order 20, a Councillor who speaks shall direct his. speech strictly to the motion or amend- ment. The motion in front of the meet- ing is whether the question be heard in committee or not. Mr. Wm. Evans: I have as much right as Mr. D. G. Davies to speak to the amendment. Mr. D. G. Davies: No, you have, I think, to sPeak to the motion. Mr. AN. Evans: We ought to put you ill the chair, then. I have a right to spo'iK to any motion. It has been pro- posed the Council resolve themselves into committee to discuss a question of finance in Private, and I beg to move an amendment that we' discuss it in public. Mr. Davies: That is only a direct negative; it is not an amendment. Mr. Wm. Evans (to the Chairman): I think you had better vacate the chair, and put Mr. Davies here. I move an amendment, and I have, I think, a right to speak to it. The Chairman eventuallv said he would take an amendment. Mir r. Jra oh1 n Morgans: Why should you be afraid of hearing the truth, and why afraid of having this in the light. We have dealt with this question in private before; why not have it in public now? The Chairman: Not until the matter is settled with Llandilo. Mr. E. Hewlett: Why should Mr. Morgans accuse anybody of being afraid to face the public. There is no one around this table who is afraid, or I would not Nit here. Who are to say* we are afraid of discussing in public? Mr. Evan Evans seconded the amend- ment. I Mean a Rate of 10d. in the £ Mr. Vm. Evans: If you form your- selves into committee, you won't stop me going Oil with m): motion. I will deal with it in committee. It has been dealt with in committee, and means a rate of IOA. I n-thp, £ from what we had in the last private meeting. Mr. G. Da vies: I rise to a. point I of order and ask your ruling. Mr. Chair- man. I insist. A vote was then taken when it was decided by eight votes to five to go into committee. The room was then ele-ared, but the meeting broke up.

I TRIMSARAN DISPUTE ENDED. there has been a dispute among the Inmsaran (Jolliery in regard to the free running of the coal over the screen. The men claim that the coal was to run over the screens by gravity, and the management; according to the men, have placed a barrier in tlie way of the coal with the view of preventing it running so fast. This the men alleged affected their wages, and on Wednes- day Mr. Morgan, the miners' agent, visited the colliery and interviewed the management. A settlement was arrived at. subject to the approval of the owners' side of the Conciliation Board.

LIFEBOAT OUT.1
I TERRIBLE SEAS. I I RESCUED MARINERS DESCRIBE I THEIR EXPERIENCES. I LIFEBOATMEft'S PROMPTNESS. I I (Continued from Page 1). With reference to the exciting scenes in the ilumbie.s Roads, described on Page 1, our representative telephones an account of several interviews which he had with members of the rescued crews. it might be inter?sting to state that two members of the crew of the Tele- graph are nephews of the captain, and all the crews are natives of Minehead. As ocn as the rescue was effected the men were taken to a temperance hotel at Southend, and given food" and a change of clothes by the Shjpwrecked Mariners' Society. I A Very Rough sea. Interviewed by our representative, Captain Webber, of the ketch Tele- graph, a man who has had a long ex- perience of the sea, said: "1 have never known such a roug h sea in my life. Jt was hardly credible in the month of May. My boat was going from Minehead to Pembroke. For a con- siderable time the water had been ex- I' ceedingly rough, and we had, in fact, been down the Channel twice, but could not get into the open sea. We came back as far as the Mumbles last night ¡ for shelter, and everything went well until the tide receded, shortly after: ¡ midnight. Matters then became ex- ceedingly bad, and at last we were com- pelled "to hoist our danger-signal. The lifeboat came to our assistance, and we feel none the worse for our experience." Sidney May (who is a cripple), of the schooner Industry, in the course of a. chat with the Leader man, said he I was the first to be saved from his boat. One of the crew very kindly handed to me the first rope," he said, "and li got into the lifeboat..Everything went all right until I got into the lifeboat, when the rope snapped, but fortunately I I was not thrown into the water, but I fell into the boat." I Snow on the Decks. I I have been at sea 34 years," said Captain Bell, of the Marion, and neçcr in my life have I known such seas. We had been down the channel twice, and we were on one occasion quite, close to our port, but we had to come back to the Mumbles for shelter. We had siMw on our decks. On Mon- day the storm grew wor?, and just after midnight last n?ht, when the tide began to turn, we were tossed about in all directions, and we were in great danger of coming into collision with othe,- ships. Water swept our decks, and. in fact. it is a wonder we were not washed overboard. Wo hoisted our danger-signals. and within 15 minutes we were rescued. Capt. Holding, of the schooner, said: "I do not wish to experience anything like this again. It is the first time that ever Capt. Bell or myself have been res- cued by a lifeboat..We left Bridg- water on Monday for Manchester, and we got to the mouth the Channel twice, but had to re- turn owing to high seas. Last night wo reached the Mumbles, ana it was then the storm appeared to reach its height. Our decks were simply swept with water, and what has really hap- pened to our boat we cannot say until we go back." All the abandoned boats were being tossed about near the pier at the time of writing. At 2 o'clock this afternoon the storm seemed to have passed over, and it was expected that the crews would soon be able to return to their boats and resume their journey. With regard to the cripple, Sidney May, it was said he was allowed to go into the life-boat first because he was the junior. The three captains were the last to leave their boats.
