The Charges Against Indian…
The Charges Against Indian "Oculists." EVIDENCE FOR THE DEFENCE. Mr Mathews' Reply for the Crown. I The trial of the four Indian oculists-Heere 3hah, Kbair Deen, Shahah Bedean, and Karim Bakhsh-will be concluded to-day. Consider- able progress was made with the case on Saturday—all the witnesses were called, and the speeches, both for the defence and that made by Mr Mathews in reply for the Crown, delivered. Nothing now remains but for the Judge to sum up the case and the jury to Irrive at its verdict. These 12 gentlemen were very anxious on Saturday to know the sums paid by the witnesses for the defence who had undergone operations at the hands of the accused. tb turned out that two of the witnesses were Jreated free, one paid 10s 6d per week for 27 weeks at Wellingborough, and the same sum for 11 weeks at another place. The total payments by other witnesses were much smaller. Dr. Dodd, who has given evidence for the prosecution, recalled, stated that he had ex- amined the eyes of witnesses who had been called for the defence, and who had deposed to success- ful operations. He deposed to the specific disease of the eyes from which each witness was suffering, and expressed doubt as to some of the alleged operations. The red-hot iron treatment men- tioned by the witness Palmer was coarse and brutal. The Common Serjeant: But bs says it did him Jood. Witness: It might by setting up a counter Irritation; but counter irritation was seldom resorted to in such a case, because the disease was a slow chronic one. The cutting of the temples was also an excessive mode of treatment. He could find no present disease in the case of the boy Martin, and he could not say that the treatment of the accused did not effect a cure. As to the case of Maria Allen, the operation performed was successful, but it might have been better done. Mr Jarvis, upon the conclusion of the case, argued that the question for the decision of the jury was not as to the competency of the prisoners, j but as to their bona-fides. Their mode of con- ducting operations might not be up to the nine teenth-century standard, but they had been attended with success, and had been beneficial to the persons operated upon. The Common Serjeant said he should hold that the presence cf the accused in this country was of he gravest disadvantage, and the reason why he had had the evidence translated to them so care- fully was that, should the jury come to the conclu- sion that they had acted bona-fide up to now, they would not again be able to set up such a plea in favour of a irethod which was so cruel and barbarous. Mr Mathews, in reply for the Crown, reviewed in considerable detail the salient features of the case. and contended that no possible defence could be made for such treatment as that resorted to by the prisoners. It was inconceivable to understand how the men could be said to possess the skill or the knowledge requisite for carrying out successfully the operations they undertook. One of the most significant features in the case vas the absence of any expert evidence on behalf of the prisoners, and as 'regarded the insinuation of jealousy, which was imputed to the prosecu- tion, no greater slander upon the great medical faculty of England could well be imagined. The trial was adjourned.
A TRIO OF CRUELTY CASES AT…
A TRIO OF CRUELTY CASES AT NEWPORT. At the Newport Borough Police-court this morning four defendants appeared to answer charges of cruelty. In the first case, Thomas Richards and John Thomas, the masters, re- iponded, but Robert Mullms. the man, wasabsent. -Inspector Horlor, of the S. P.C. A., on October 16th saw Mullins in charge of a horse which was drawing a load of sand up Stow Hill; the animal gave evidence of being in pain, and Horlor stopped the horse, and on examining it found two raw wounds under the collar. By the officer's directions the animal was taken to the stable. Richards declared that he had sold the animal, the Saturday previous to the offence, to Thomas, but it appeared that it was by Richards' orders that the animal was pub into the cart, fend the two masters were held to be jointly responsible and were fined 10s each, the charge against the driver was dismissed.—George Paul, of 12, Bond-street, was cautioned by Horlor for working his horse on Stow-hill, and then took the animal back to the stable but three days afterwards again brought the animal out, and was seen driving top Stow-hill with a load of bricks. Horlor then examined the horse, and found three wounds on the near shoulder, against which the collar was rubbing but for the wounds the animal was in good condition. Paul was now fined 20s.—James "Hayes was the last to appear. He also had endeavoured to get his master's mule up Stow hill with a load of bricks after Officer Horlor had told him thab lie J)ad better get assistance. When the officer was out of sight, however, Hayes drove on, and the officer found the animal vainly struggling to proceed further with its load, and on lifting the saddle 'found a raw wound against which the saddle was pressing. Hayes pleaded that he was not aware of the wound, and as Inspector Warr, who repre- sented the Royal Society, did not press for a heavy penalty, owiag to defendant's poverty, a See of only 5s was imposed.
AN ABERCARN COLLIER DISSIPATES…
AN ABERCARN COLLIER DISSIPATES HIS EARNINGS. Samuel Jones, an Abercarn collier, appeared n the dock at the Newport Borough Police-court this morning, having spent the interval since Saturday evening in the cells. Jones worked a turn on Friday night, and after receiving his Wages, which amounted to £ 2 for the week, he came to Newport and spent the day in carousing in the evening he was found in Commercial- Street here he steadied himself against one window. and endeavouring to get another start, he again staggered, and fell against the window, breaking one of the panes of glass. Jones was thereupon escorted to the Town-hall. Mr Mordey, one of the magistrates, now told Jones, who is a. Young man, that it would have been much better if he had sent his wages to his brother colliers in Yorkshire than have spent it in drink. Jones was fined 10s, and having only 2s 4d left out of his ;021 he went below, the alternative being seven days' Imprisonment.

The Herald"s Lima correspondent says a furious mob attacked the offices of the Joutnal De Comercio in Rio for the latter's energetic opposition to Caceres. One of the employees was shot. A detachment of cavalry dispersed the mob, as the municipal guard showed a disinclination to act. the President refuses to accept the resignation of the Ministry, whoso endeavours have been directed to the maintenance of order, but the Cacerists are clamouring- for a dissolution of Con- gress. Feeling in the United States. NEW YOHK, Monday.—The Tribune publishes the following telegram from its Washington correspondent :—There can be no doubt of the significance of the orders given on Saturday for the cruiser New York to proceed to Rio de Janeiro. In spite of the efforts made to conceal the possible result of the present state of affairs at Rio, it is well known by this time in official circles here that the present disturbances in Brazil involve more directly and seriously the interests of the United States than any similar South American rebellion for years past. The success of Admiral De Moilo's movement means the possible overthrow of the Republic, the restoration of the monarchy through foreign inter- vention, and the abrogation of all commercial concessions and advantages obtained by this country under the Reciprocity Treaty of, 1391.— Rcvler.

ITHE ROATH PARK. ^
THE ROATH PARK. II" The Mayor of Cardiff and "Cochfarf." A TI FF AT THE COUNCIL At a special meeting of the Cardiff Corporation to-day, the mayor (Councillor V åughan) presid- ing, Councillor E. Thomas complained of being prevented making allusion to a portion of one of the minutes regarding the parks. The MA yon: The thing has been passed. Why didn't you call attention to it when it was before us Councillor THOMAS (warmly): When we are doing our best here you have no right to hinder us, n.nd I won't be harassed even by a mayor. When I referred to the matter at a previous meeting I was told that it would come up again, and now I am told I cannot refer to it. But I shall take another opportunity of speaking on it when there is some other person in the chair. The MAYOU (firmly) I must protest against those remarks of Councillor Thomas, that he won't be harassed even by a mayor. The mayor is not to be harassed even by Councillor Thomas. (Hear, hear.) The matter to which he referred is passed, and I am going according to order. If the thing is passed, why do you want to go back on it ? Councillor THOU AS I protest. As I said before, I shall take other means and another opportunity of bringing the subject forward. The incident then ended.
THE CARDiFF BATHS.:
THE CARDiFF BATHS. xi 0,000 to be Spent, The property, markets, and ba.ths committee 1 recommended the Cardiff County Borough Council at the meeting this morning to adopt the Baths and Washhousos Act, and that an applica- tion be made to the Local Government Board for their approval to the borrowing of LIO,000 for the purpose of altering and improving the corporation baths in GLiildford-creseent. -Councillor Tlioma,,i Andrews urged the provision of bath and wash- houses in other parts of the town. If the land- owners were approached in the proper spirit they would be ready to grant the necessary sites. He proposed as an amendment that the committee be instructed to report on the question of baths and washhouses in Splott, Grangetown, Caihays, and Canton.—Councillor White seconded.—It was pointed out that the council had consented to the expenditure, and Alderman David Jones observed that L2,000 in the construction of baths went nowhere. It was further stated that the pro- vision of baths in the other parts of the town would follow.—The committee's resolution was adopted.
PROPOSED MUNICIPALISATION…
PROPOSED MUNICIPALISATION OF CARDIFF TRAMWAYS. The Cardiff Town Council at the meeting this morning considered a resolution from the public works committee with regard to the management of tramways in the twelve leading towns of the tow-is of the kingdom. The committee advised the council to purchase the tramway undertaking in order to obtain control of the streets, and recommended that the town clerk be instructed to notify the tramway company of this intention.—Councillor Johnston proposed and Councillor Waring seconded the adoption of the resolution.— Coun- cillor Jenkins said it was suggested at their last meeting that a committee should be formed and inquiry made into the question. Was this to take place ?— The Town Clerk said the matter depended on theresulbof the negotiations with the tramways company, without which they would not be in a position to consider the question.— Councillor Richards wished that provisiou should be made at the same time for the application of the Artisans' Dwellings Act. He was informed that it was already in force in th9 borough.—The committee's resolution was agreed to.

SHOP ASSISTANTS' HOURS. At a meeting of Cardiff Town Council to-day, the Mayor (Councillor Vaughan) presiding, Councillor White asked if it was intended by the health committee to appoint an inspector under the Shop Hours' Act, 1892, and suggested that the subject should be considered by the com- mittee.-Alderman Jacobs explained that the committee had considered the matter and appointed the chief sanitary inspector (Mr Vaughan), who had a staff of assistants. The Act was but a year old, and he believed the present staff would be able to carry it out efficiently in due course.

A Manchester Murder.
A Manchester Murder. I Butchered in Her Own Home. The Accused Attacks his Pursuers with I a Knife. Emanuel Hnlner was brought before the Sal- ford magistrates to-day and formally remanded on a charge of wilfully murdering Catherine Tyrer, aged seventy-four, in Salford, on Saturday night. The neighbours heard groaning in Mr Tyrer's house, and on going to ascertain the cause saw Hamer leaving the house. In answer to a question he said it was all right," and ran away. He was pursued, and after a struggle, in which he used a knife, was taken into custody. Mrs Tyrer was found lying in her house in a pool cf blood, and bearing upon her face terrible marks of violence. She was removed to the Salford Hospital, where she died to-day, never having regained consciousness. Hamer realises the seriousness of his position, and when in- formed of the death of Mrs Tyrer burst into tears. It is believed that the prisoner is respect- ably connected. Mrs Tyrer was supposed to have a considerable sum of money m the house.
SHIPPING FATALITY AT CARDIFF…
SHIPPING FATALITY AT CARDIFF I A Seaman K!ed and Two Others Injuped. On Saturday night the Benarth Roads,jjust out- side Cardiff Docks, was the scene of a shipping casualty, which is, in seine respects, of a rather peculiar character, and which, unfortunately, was attended with fatal consequences, one man having been killed, and two men slightly injured. The other day the sailing ship Parthenia, of Charlotte- town (Capt. G. Davies), Prince Edward Island, and belonging to tbe bon. Win, Richards, arrived in Barry Roads, from Hull, to await orders, and on Saturday afternoon Capt. Davies got a tele- gram to proceed to the East Bute Dock, at Cardiff. He, accordingly, engaged the tug Norah to tow his vessel round. All went well although the weather was rather stormy and the sea rough, until the Norah and her charge were passing Penarth Point, between eight and nine o'clock at night, when an outward-bound steamer which had just left Penarth Dock made to cross the bows of the tug. There was not, it is said, room for a vessel to pass safely at that point, and the captain of the tug, in order to avoid a collision, put his boat astern. The effect was to bring the towing hawser right across his beam, and leaving two points abaft the vessels' beam, so that she had the whole weight of the vessel across the side. The pilot on the barque sang out to the tug captain to let go the rope, but either he did not hear, or could not act if he did hear, as it was uot slipped. The result of the enormous strain was that the tow-rope got out of the warp- ing chocks, and, coming across the capitir), broke the spindle, the capstan and the rope striking three seamen, one of whom was killed and the other two were injured. The man killed was an A.B. named l. Hunt (39), a native of St. John's, Newfoundland, and he seems to have received the deathblow on the back of the head from the portion of the ropo which, after parting, recoiled to the Parthenia. He ako sus- tained injuries to the back. Two other members of the crew who were close by Hunt at the time, named Carl Johanson (21), a Swede, and William Porter, a young man, were also hurt. The former was a good deal bruised about the shoulders and his collar-bono was fractured, and he was landed by the Norah as speedily as possible and sent to the Hamadryad Hospital Ship, where he was carefully attended to by Dr. Hughes. Dr. Scott, Bute-street, had been called previously, however, and saw the injured men before they were landed. The man Porter's injuries wore not at all serious, and he remained on the barque to attend to his ordinary duties. It is expected that Johanson will recover in a few weeks. The body of Hunt was on Sunday afternoon removed to the Cardiff Mor- tuary, where it now lies awaiting an inquest. A peculiar fact in connection with the occur- rence is that no one who was on the tug and the barque Parthenia, knows the name of the delin- quent steamer, while it is to be noted that similar casualties are of very rare occurrence. The outward-bound steamer will, of course, be dis- covered, and when that is done, probably her captain will hitve some explanation to offer as to wliy-if it be true, as has been alleged-he crossed the bows of the tug in such circum- scribed space, and why, if he had reason to suspect there had been an accident, he did not stand by and ascertain the actual condition of affairs.
DEATH OF COUNCILLOR T. MORGAN,…
DEATH OF COUNCILLOR T. MORGAN, NANTYGLO. After a short illness, Mr T. Morgan, C.C., died at his residence, Ty D vfydd, Nantyglo, on Sunday morning, from an affection of the lungs. The news caused the deepest sympathy to be expressed with the relatives and Mrs Morgan, who is also seriously ill. Mr Moigon had not been in very robust health for Some time, and about a fortnight ago returned from Torquay, where he had gone to recruit, and seemed greatly improved. At the beginning of last week he complained, and on Thursday was confined to bed. Inflammation of the lungs set in, and he passed away at two a.m. yesterday. The de. cease 1 gent>e.nan began life in a groceryjestablish- inenb at Blaina, Mon., afterwards going to assist his father, the late Alderman Edmund Morgan, at Coalbrook Vale Colliery, Nantyglo, which was leased by him. The property passed into the hands of the present owners, Messrs J. G. aud W. Barnes, and Mr Edward Morgau relinquish- ing the onerous duties of management, his son was appointed head manager, having passed a very successful examination, and obtained a first class certificate as civil engineer. Deceased took a zealous interest in the welfare of the district, and:w.,ts held in high esteem by the workmen employed at Coalbrookvale. He was chairman of the Nantyglo and Blaina Local Board, having been a member of that authority since its forma-' tion. He was also a member of the Aberystruth School Board, and about two years ago was returned to the Monmouthshire County Council. Like his father, he was an ardent Liberal, and ever took an interest in matters political, being also a member of the executive of the South Wales Liberal Association. In connection with Hermon Welsh Baptist Chapel, he was deacon, secretary, and Sunday-school superintendent. Deceased married the daughter of the late Mr David Watkins, grocer, Brynmawr, and great sympathy is felt for her in her sad bereavement. The funeral will take place on Thursday next, at 2.30 p.m.

TO THE EDITon OF TIm SOUTH WALES ECHO." SIR,—I wish emphatically to state that though I have moved amongst the Gra.ngetown electors as much as anyone, I have not heard anyone scattering abroad that Councillor Brain was sup- porting Mr John Jenkins's candidature, and ex- press my surprise that he should have given way to a party dodge in writing such a letter. We were not foolish enough to expect Mr Brain to openly support Mr Jenkins, but we did expect him to prove true to the plengcs made to myself and others—that he would remain strictly neutral during this contest. Had he not broken his promise he might have retained the confidence of his constituents, and not forced opposition when his tetni of office expires.—I am, &x\. WM.

-I THE AUSTRALIAN ELEVEN IN…
THE AUSTRALIAN ELEVEN IN J ENGLAND. j Unpleasant reminiscences of the Australian cricketers' tour are still being n-echoed to these shores. The Sydney Daily Telegraph in a recent I issue just to hand, contains an article on" The" Australian Eleven in England," written by an ex- | county cricketer, in which some very plain speak- J ing occurs. Th? want of harmonious combination? among the payers, tho faulty discipline which weak leadership a)!owed to exist, and the personal foiMes of cert?tu members of the team, are focussed with considerable force, and the Austra- lian authorities are called upon to deal with the offenders in a fashion which it will not be possible to mistake. The things now talked of in the Australian Press were kept pretty well from the public eye in England during the summer, though in cricketing circles they were well known to exist. Yet per- haps, says a contemporary, too much is being made of these unpleasant side issues. There is just the suspicion that they may undergo elabora- tion in the desire to account for the qualified sHe-I cess which the team met with, and for their failur(? to justify the fanfare of trumpets which I heiaided the tour six months ago. It may also be quite true, as the article in question says, that prominent English amateurs Were not possessed of a keen desire to meet the Colonials in the cricket field, but the reason was not the same as that which kept the public away from the Aus- tralian matches. The public takes little account of personal matters, and the small gates com plained of were directly traceable to the over- powering interest of the county championship.
AN OLDHAM COINING CASE. I…
AN OLDHAM COINING CASE. I At the Oldham Police-court a young man I named George G. Wirrall was charged with I making and uttering and putting off base coin. The evidence adduced was to the effect that the prisoner went to the Navigation Inn, Ilollm- wood, at 10.45 on the night of the 19th inst., and called for a gill of beer, tendering a sixpence ni payment. The laadlord's attention was called to the coin, and he told the prisoner it was a bad one- He declined to give up tho coin, and sent for a constable. Prisoner then tried to get away, struck the landlord a violent blow in the face, knocking a tooth out, and also kicked him. He was then handed into custody, and on being searched, several counterfeit sixpences were found m his possession, and 7s 5%d in copper. He admitted that he "put off" 7s worth of six- pences on the same day. Other cases were gone into.—The Chief Const-able stated that the police had ascertained that the prisoner had passed counterfeit sixpences at various shops in Oldham to the amount of 13s 6d. Prisoner resided at 4, Peel-street, Newton lleath, and they had there found a number of implements used in the manufacture of base coin. Prisoner had made and signed a statement admitting that he had manufactured the coin, and promised not to do it again if the police would have mercy on him.—Prisoner, who pleaded guilty, was com- mitted for trial at the Manchester Assizes.
SUNDAY LEAGUERS INI LONDON.
SUNDAY LEAGUERS IN I LONDON. A Visit to the Mansion House. I As a result of the thoughtful consideration of the Lord Mayor, invitations were issued to about 1,500 members of the National Sunday League and their friends to visit the Mansion House yesterday afternoon. Nearly all of them put in an appearance, and were headed as they proceeded through the various rooms that were thrown open for inspection by Alderman Treloar, president of the league. At three o'clock there was quite a crush at the Ioice-court entrance, when some 500 visitors pressed eagerly for admittance. They passed through the sitting-rooms on he left into the Egyptian Hall, where a quantity of gold plate was displayed through the council chamber, where a number of illuminated addresses to the Lord Mayor were shown, and into another room on the right, where a table laden with silver and gold cups attracted attention. The Lord Mayor passed through ttffe rooms during the afternoon, and greeted cordially a number of the Sunday Leaguers who were introduced to him. The visitors were evidently very much pleased with what they saw.

THE FATAL PRIZE F16HT. On Saturday morning, at Chester Castle, a coloured man named Samuel Smith was charged with causing the death of Patrick Fahey in a supposed prize light. The prisoner, against whom the coroner's jury returned a verdict of manslaughter, is a Creole, who eftnie to Eng- land six years ago from Buenos Ayres. The fight took place in a secluded spot outside Chester on Sunday, the 27th inst. Five rounds were fought, in the presence of 50 spectators. Fahey, who was punished severely about the heart, died on the field half-an-hoar afterwards. Several witnesses of the light were called, and said the popular feeling was on the side of Darkey, who gave in first, saying, I want no more there are too many on to me. "—James Lightfoot said he had never seen Fahey's photograph in prize-ring costume or heard that he fancied himself as a bruiser. "-lhe prisoner reserved his defence, ■ and was committed to the assizes. The court gallery was densely crowded.
THE PRIMATE ON SOCIAL ,INEQUALITY.
THE PRIMATE ON SOCIAL INEQUALITY. The Archbishop of Canterbury, addressing the clergy at Croydon, to-day, said there undoubtedly existed among all classes, rich as well as poor, a desire for more just views of life. There was a wide dissatisfaction with the unfair inequalities, and yet at the same time there was no less dis- satisfaction with the rouHh remedies proposed. The spirit of the Unions was not less exclusive or more merciful than the spirit of the classes. The Church hcd unique opportunities of inculcating that wisdom which in days of change was worth more than all other faculties. AVI)i,o the clergy ought to be most cautious of. intermeddling in disputes which required for their solution technical knowledge, they never could be out of place in recommending, in every possible form, fairness and preference of principle to individual advantage. 5

In the Divorce Cotivt on Saturday, before Justice Barnes, Richard Parr, a Nottingham contractor, petitioned for dissolution of marriage on the ground of his wife's misconduct with Edward Thomas Railing, contractor's managing clerk. The co-respondent was a friend of the petitioner's, and visited his house ostensibly on business, but the petitioner alleged that improper relations took place between his wife and Railing during his (petitioner's) absence. The charge was denied, and condonation was set up. There was also a counter-charge of misconduct against the petitioner. It was stated that the petitioner, having his supicions aroused, removed some boards from his bedroom floor, and through the aperture thus made he saw his wife and Railing.

A Young Lady's Strangei Death."1
A Young Lady's Strange Death. "1 THE ERIfH MYSTERY PARTLY SOLVED. The young woman whose body was recently found upon the South-Eastern Railway, betwesa Abbey Wood and Belvedere stations, has been identified as Miss Emily Margaret Renshaw, of Sheffield. On Satvrday afternoon, in consc-qtie co of communications received from the police at Bel vedere, the mother and sister of Miss Renshaw left Sheffield for Erith. where they arrived late on Saturday night, and reaching the mortuary at once identified the remains. There 'are certain circumstances in connection with Miss lienshaw's disapprr.rar.ee from Sheffield and the .subsequent d:scsvery of her body in tho deserted spot in which it was found which were not -satisfactorily cleared up at the inquest on Thurs- day last, when an open verdict was returned. The first that was seen of Miss Rensliaw in the vicinity of Abbey Wood was about a fortnight ago. when she was seen to arr.ve late in the afternoon at Abbey Wood Station. She remained in the locality some time, as though expecting a friend or friends, but eventually wandered away alone. Sho was again observed a few days after waiting near the station, and after remaining there a considerable time walked dejectedly away in the direction of Belvedere. It is stated that on Sunday, October 22nd—on the evening of which day she is sup- posed to have met her death—she wrote a letter from Westminster to her friends in Sheffield, which caused them to communicate with the police. Her description was then circulated, and it was at once recognised by the Belvedere police as corresponding with the body awaiting identi- fication at Erith. It has been ascertained that when Miss Renshaw left Sheffield on the 16th inst. sue stated that she was going to London, and left with sufficient money to cover all expenses for several days. There is stated to have been, so far as is known to her friends, no reason why she should have left home, or to prevent her returning there. Dawn to last mght the police had been unable to discover the cause of Miss Renshaw's visits to Abbey Wood or Belvedere, and her movements sines leaving Sheffield still remain enshrouded in mystery. The deceased, who was 17 years of age, is described as a preposessing young lady of fine physique. Her clothing had been changed shortly before death, and the discovery of the other gar- ments will probably 113 the aim of further police investigation, as this might lead to the discovery of her address since leaving home.
WALTER BESANT ANDI -TEMPERANCE.
WALTER BESANT AND I TEMPERANCE. The Novelist's Advice, I Tile Homser-rise Guild, which was formed by I members of the Di8trct Lodge of Good Templars, and is opea only to ab5ta!ners,!ias heen wlicit- ing subscriptions with the object of building and purchasing a house in which to carry on ItS work, and has, among others, obtained a reply from Mr Walter Besaut. Mr Besant approves of the wlwma, which in his opinion will cost £ 3,000 to carry into effect. He con- cludes his letter as follows Let me strongly advise you to mrke a vigorous attempt at a big thing. Let you guild house stand alone, unfettered by connection with any temperance lodge—a connection which would only weaken it. The institution should t>e in itself one of the finest temperance lodges in the worid. I will become a guarantor to a guild that is unconnected with any temperance lodge to the extent of £ 10 for three years if you can get 10 others." In another letter he says, I am not a total abstainer, nor am I one who believes that the moderate use of wine and other intoxicating drinks is the least hurtful to life or work, but I do believe that those who are brought up to total abstinence may, and can, do as much in the world as those who, hke myself, were brought up 011 the old plan, and therefore I quite sypathise with your objch."

TUMULT IN A BETHLEHEM CHURCH. TA Priest Shot Dead. I JEHCSAI.EJI, Saturday.—Duiing the celebration of a religious festival in the Church cf the Nativitj* at Bethlehem, yesterday evening, a dis pute about some trivial matter led to a serious disturbance, in which one nioiil: was killed by a shot from a revolver, and two others were wounded. The three monks were Italians but the nationality of the man who fired the revolver is not yet determined. The Italian Consul here, immediately on learning about the affair, presented a. formal demand to the Turkish Governor and the Russian Consul, calling upon them to take steps for the punish- ment, of the perpetrators of the outrage. LATER.—The man who fired a revolver at the monks in the Church of the Nativity at Bethlehem has been ascertained to be an Austrian subject. The Italian Consul has addressed a demand to the Austrian Consulate asking that proceedings may be instituted against the niaD.-Rcittcr.
THE CHEAP AND DEADLY LAMP…
THE CHEAP AND DEADLY LAMP I Mrs James, of 120, Lorrimore-road, Walworth, got up early on the morning of the 24th instant and went downstairs to get the breakfast ready. Shortly afterwards her husband heard screams from the kitchen, and thinking that she had fallen down he rushed downstairs. When he reached the kitchen lie saw his wife standing against the wash house doorwith her hands to her head, which was in flames. He dragged her down, and in about three minutes the fire was extinguished. The whole of the upper part of the body seemed to be on fire. Although every remedy was applied Mrs James died 12 hours later. At an inquest held on Satur- day the husband explained that in the wash house was a cistern which leaked, and on the morning in question his wife had mounted some steps to I see if there was sufficient water for the day's con- sumption. To aid her sight she had taken a penny paraffin lamp, and held it above her head. She had dropped the light, and the oil had gone over her head and become igmted. When he saw her on fire she said, J was getting to the cIstern. The coroner thought some steps ought to -be taken to prevent the sala of cheap and dangerous lamps, and the jury returned a verdict of Aceiclentai death.

The house was closcd as ustial &it midnight on Saturday and everything was left in safety. Upon the landlord, Mr Neil Mackay, ifoing into the bar this morning he was astonished: to find the door open, and a glance at the till, which contained a considerable sum of money, sufficed to show that) the robbers had made a considerable haul. Information was immediately conveyed to the police, and a detec- tive arrived ii-om Scotland Yard and took up the case. It is presumed that just before closing time some persons must have secreted themselves in the celiar and coinmcyced operations when all were in bed.

MORE FIGHTING AT KELILLA. GENERAL margallo killed* Reinforcements Despatched! MADKID, Saturday.—Last nig lit it was stated in military and political circles that Suiting had taken puioe at l'ort Gusrsaob. but no definite information was forthcoming. substance of an officio telegram, which has bttn communicated to the press, is, however, to the effect that at four o'clock yesterday afternoon the Moors opened fire from the trenches upon the Sp;inisb forces. The latter found themselves surrounded, and were compelled to retire. Up to the present no press telegrams have been received concerning tha encounter, and this fact has. escited some ° com- j ment.-Centred Ncv:&. MADRID, Saturday.—The '.Ministry of War has received the following telegram from fd iib, signed by the colonel of the Africa Regiment: —" The Moors, in great force, yesterday opened fire from the:r trenches on tlie Spaniards engaged i in the construction of the new intermediate fort between Fort Camellos aad l?ort &ua.riach. They also fired on other bodies of Spaniards who were building a new redoubt aixi making trenches t about Fort Rostrogordo and Cabrerizas. The workmen at both places were protected by batteries of artillery and by detachments of regular troops armed with Manser rifles. The Spaniards near Fort Camellos stood the fire of tho ereirv boldly, but had to retreat to the fort. They fell back in good order. Genera! Margallo was in command at Fort Camellos, and General Ortega at Fort Rostrogordo. When the firing ceased, General Margallo returned to Melilla. He had gone out to x' ort Camellos to direct the retreat of the Spaniards personally, having observed that they were taking shelter in the forts as soon as the Moors opened fire," Private despatches report that the forts kept up a brisk fire cn the Moors and that the Conde Venadito threw some shells among the Kabyles who gathered on the coast with the object, doubtless, of cutting off the retreat of the Spaniards into the fort. The con- duct of General Margallo in exposing small bodies of men to the attacks of a numerous enemy is strongly criticised liee.-R,I-utcr. MADRID, Saturday, 11.30 p.m.-Further de- tails of the fighting at Melilla, yesterday, report that the Moors, who had gathered in great force from all sides, attacked the Spaniard s eng-ageci upon the construction of redoubts. The latter, who were reinforced by men from the Melilla garrison, fought bravely, but were at last com- pelled, owing to the superior numbers of the enemy, to take shelter inside the forts. The Moors took possession of the trenches and re- doubts recently constructed by the Spaniards, from which they kept up a constant fire on the forts aU last night. The forts re- plied, directing their aim by light of the moon, and causing great execution among the enemy. To-day reinforcements from Melilla, led by General Ortega, drove the enemy from the Spanish trenches after severe fighting, in which many Spaniards were killed, including General Margallo, whose body was recovered and conveyed to Melilla. Genera': Ortega has asked for an urgent despatch of strong reinforcements. The Moors fight with great desperation. Yester- day they endeavoured to cut off the retreat of some Spaniards when they approached the coast. The cruiser Conde de Venadito began to shell them, but they bravely advanced to the beach, and succeeded in lodging many shots on board the cruiser. The latest news has caused greatest excitement in Madrid. The Canarios Regiment left yesterday for the scene of opera- tions. and the Wad Has" follow to-day. The Q;ieeu-Regent and the King reviewed the Wad Ra-s Regiment prior to their departure. The King uncovered and returned the salutes of the troops, while the people cheered enthusiastically. At a Cabinet Council held this evening, it was decided to despatch additional troops to Melilla immediately, and especially reinforceinents of heavy art ille-y. -Pvttc-
FURTHER DETAILS.".I
FURTHER DETAILS. I 200 Killed and Wounded. ) MADRID, Sunday (Later).—The lishes details of the fighting at Melilla on Friday. The Moors, 50,000 strong, invaded the entire Spanish territory, attacking the forts Camellos and Cabrerizas, outside which the Spanish troops were engaged in entrenchment work. Besides advancing in front, hordes of Moors attacked the forts m the flank and rear to cut off the Spanish retreat on Melilla, The warship Conde Venadito opened fire and eventually com- pelled the enemy to return to their own territory. Nevertheless, the men who had been working 111 the trenches were driven back into the shelter of the forts,, and the Moors took possession of the evacuated redoubt and captured two cannons, with which they vigorously replied to the fire of the forts and Spanish warship, the cannonade lasting all night. At daybreak yesterday General Marsallo inarched out from Fort Cabrerizas at the head of his troops. Scarcely had the force got outside the shelter of the walls th an the general was shot 111 the head, and died almost instantly. The Eiiremadura Regiment, assisted by a regi- ment of disciplinarians, charged furiouslv, and dislodged the Moors from the trenches at the point of the bayonet, re-taking the captured guns and recovering 'General Marsailo's body. During the day General Ortega sent a strong convoy of provisions to Fort Cabrerizas, where the soldiers had been 26 hours without food. When the despatch left firing still continued. The losses of the Spaniards at Fort Cabrerizas had amounted to four killed and 22 wounded, but rumours are current that the Spanish losses are much higher, amounting to 70 killed and 122 wounded. A monster procession paraded Madrid this afternoon, singing patriotic songs.—Renter. GIBRALTAR, Sunday.—The Spanish cruiser Alfun-o XII., one of the vessels of the squadron, anchored off Algeceras, sailed to-day for Melilla, owing to the serious situation there. A regiment of intantry will leave to-morrow for tlx scene cf operations. —Renter.
-__- -A SWANSEA APPEAL,
A SWANSEA APPEAL, Singular Domestic Dispute. In the Queen's Bench Division of the High Court of Justice on Saturday—before Mr Justice Wills and Mr Justice Grantham, sitting as a divisional court—the case of DunhiJI v. Norton came on for hearing. -Air Henry Eisch and Mr H. J. Turrell were counsel for the plaintiff Mr Cannot represented the defendant. Mr Canno; aid this was the defendant's appeal from a judgment of Mr Hemming. Q.C. official referee, who had decided in favour of the plaintiff, and given judgment for him for £2,014- and costs. On the money being brought into court the official referee-had given leave to appeal. The claim was made up of two sums, the, first being £ 886 14s, alleged to have been expended by the plaintiff fit the request of the defendant, between January and June.. 1839, under an agreement dated January, 1889, and interest at five per cent. The defence was a of the liability of the defendant with regard to the jBS36 and the claim for uiterest, aud an admission of a debt of £ 1,0C0, but he claimed a set-off against that sum for work done for the plaintiff as his solicitor. The t plaintiff denied the retainer, pleaded the statute of limitations as to part of the set-off, and he also raised the point that the work was done on the terms of out-of-pocket costs only, and the I official referee adopted that view. The defendant appealed on the ground that there was no evidence given by or on behalf of plaintiff sufficient to support the judgment; that there was no contract to pay the interest on the £ S35, and no power in the official referee to award it t and that the referee ought to have-held that there was Ho ground for the action, as one ijartnor waa "uing another, and there was no eVIdence of any PpeciiU r.?rccment. The p?int.iS, Mr Dunbill, was a member of the bar, and was son-in-law of the defendant, Mr Charles Norton, who was a solicitor of Swansea. Fort years the parties had b?en on p;-rfcc?y friendly t3rms, but, unfortunately, domestic differences h:d a;.en, I and they now stood upon their tllct Ie?a,l ri?b? and aU attempts at settlement had been fI, i Prior to January, 1839, the p?aintlii ?nd tbA defendant and two persons, named Sewell and Glenny, were partner- in a certain mine in Mexico. Matters turned out unsat:=factorih-. The defendant had advanced £ 3 545 ^nd the n1:tÍntlfI £3,32.0, and on the 4-th of January, 1889, it was arranged between pln;ntifr and defendant that Mr Dun- hill should g > out to M^ exico, a dppd being entered into. The JB336 was charged as cart of the expenses of tfm visit. The learned Judges havre- sent for the official referee s notes anu read his judgment in the case, did not call on Mr Turrell to support the judg- ment, but held that it was right, ami dismissed the application to send the case back to the üffic¡;¡,\ refelJ8e w'th costs. They also ordered the £ 2,QV- in court to be paid out to the plaintiff.

From a scrum Selwyn Biggs got well away and trans- ferred to Elliott, who negotiated a dodgy run and ran into the visitors' 23. Jones was instrumental in relieving, somewhat, and the ball fell into the hands of Pearson. The latter passed erratically to Elliott who missed, and the ball was dribbled by the over the division line, where Fitzgerald I saved. Cardiff again rc-started to some pretty pass- ing which took play again to the visitors' 25, where Cardiff were awarded a couple of frees, the ball being each time for Pearson, but he failed to ,.end the blill acro?-? tllc b, send the ball across the bar, although his shots were very good.

J WEARING ILLEGAL BOOTS, I A Footballer Ordered Off. I It is very seldom we hear of a player being ordered off the field for wearing illegal boots, but this is what happened to Hill, the Sheffield United centre, on Saturday, in the match with West Bromvvich. We should imagine that very few players act strictly in accordance with the rule, and they do not realist) the risk they run. for the rule states that any player discovered infringing this rule shall be prohibited from taking further part in the match." As Hill was found to have nails not flush wiLh the leather, Mr Shelton, the referee, had no option in tho matter.

SPORTING ITEMS, I
Pink is not looiced upon as the iat\.1rAbltl colour for a hunting coat in America. ^e are to!d that it has lost out there the significance which centuries of long usnge has given to it in England. The followers ot the Myopia (strange name in this connection) Hounds, which hunt near Boston, have a uniform of French blue. "Dick" Burge, champion light-weight boxer of England, accompanied by Nobby Clark and SamBlakelock, returned on Friday night on the Etrura from New York, after failing to get on a match with J nek Dempsey at Coney Island Athletic Club. Dempsey is said to be much annoyed at the treatment of Judge Newton, who refused to give a purse after Burge had travelled 3.000 miles. Burge states that Dempsev intends coming to England to fight him at the National Sporting Club. Every year there arises rumours about jockeys I c eys that are not going to have their licences renewed. It is a little early in the season for these stories, which do not generally begin till fiat racing is over, but they are current already. I always, savs ''Rapier" in the Illvsiratcd Sporting and Dramatic News, receive such tales with a certain amount of scepticism, because the Stewards of the Jockey Club cannot vveli act without proof. and though they may entertain powerful suspicions that they would be doing- well to deprive certain jockeys of their licences, they are not likely to do so without definite grounds to go upon, and robberies are hard to prove. The fact that the rumours have broken out so early, nnd are so per- sistent, however, suggests that there may be something in them. i _z i ,,i tlierr. A great chess tournament hac just concluded in New York, and the performance of the young German player, Herr Lasker, have astonished everyone. He had, up to the end of round 12, with only one gltwe to play, an d that against Gossip, whose score was only li, scored 12 successive wins, easily taking first prize with a successive Nv In ca,' lot in hand, as the next best score was orlv 71 (Herr Albin). No such performance has ever previously been recorded. Tarrasch, Gunsberg, Stemitz, Tschigorin, and others are nowhere in comparison. It follows, too, a number of almost equally remarkable successes. Lasker is nearly 25 years old. He began chess ea.rly, and in 1889 entered a rather important tourney in Berlin, carrying off first prize without loss of a game. Matches with two great players, Bardeleben and Mieses. soon followed, besides the winning of a mastership at the Breslau tournament. Soon after this Herr Lasker came to England.met Bird, Bln.ckburne, and many other fortmost; players, and always with great success. Blackburne he beat in a set match by 6 to 0, and four drawn games. Visiting the United States and Havana last year, he has still carried all before him, and in the present contest had to meet Pillsbnrg, of Boston, Showalter, Lee, .Tasnogroe'sky, Delmar, and many other good 11,en. A match between Lasker and Steinitz, Tarrasch, or Tschigorin would be even more popular than the present contest at St. Petersburg.
