RHYMNEY RAILWAY AND I i' CAcRPHILLY. Removal of Engineering Sheds from Cardiff. The decision on the part of the Rhymney Rail way Company to transfer their engineering sheds and general workshops to Caerphilly was arrived at some considerable time ago. Judging from the progress that has! been made for the reception of the works, the removal will be complete within the next twelvemonths. Transferring extensive workshops like those of the Rhymney Railway Company means a, great thing for Caerphilly, for the 400 workmen now employed by the company at Cardiff will have to live in close proximity to the sheds. Already building operations are in hand nsar the works, and the land to the north of the yard is being laid out for the erection of a good class of houses for workmen. The yard itself is about 18 acres in extent, situated at \V crndùu, a little less than a mile below Caerphilly Station on the Cardiff side. The excavating and drain- ing work was carried out some months ago by Mr T. W. Davies, contractor, Cardiff, who has also secured the contract for putting the yard in a working condition. This includes the erection of locomotive, carriage, and waggon repairing sheds, paint and carpenters' sheds, offices, mess- rooms, railroads, turntables, etc. The undertak- ing is a large one, a considerable amount of work had to be done below the surface in the way of drains, etc., and now about 150 men are engaged in building the sheds. At the west end of the yard, i.e., near Caerphilly,a|large building includes the carpenters' shops, waggon lifting shops, etc. The block is 250ft. iong and 120ft. wide. ZSot far from this a general messroom, ofrices, and stores are being erected in separate buildings. The largest buildings are at the top end of the yard. These will be the fitting and erectiniz shops, smiths' shop, boiler sheds, and the shops for mis- cellaneous repairs. This block is 250ft. long and about 300ft. wide. All these premises are in a forward state of completion. The contract time has about six months to run. When finished the yard will be covered with a network of rail- ways leading from one shop to another. There will also be the boiler houses, and doubtless the company will generate their own electricity for lighting purposes. The roofs of the shops will be glazed with Helliwell's patent glazing, 30,000 square feet of which will be used, and something like 300 tons of steelwork will be utilised. The plans were prepared by Mr Cornelius Lundie, the general and engineer of the coinmny. and Mr G. A. Lundie. At the yard the coin ro- tor's work is under the supervision of Mr A. Sims, of the company's engineering staff. I

A CRUEL MOTHER. I Child Torture at | At the Swansea Police Court on Tuesday Mary Bishop, of Llangyfelach-street, Swansea, was charged wiLh illtreating her step-daaghter Ger- trude (14), one of a large number of step-children. Mr Viner Leeder prosecuted for the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children. The child, who is now living with Inspector Pearce, said on September 25th while preparing dinner she let a. piece of cabbage fall, whereupon her step-mother drew her towards her, banged her on the side of her face with her fist, threw her on the floor, aud kept striking her while down. She then got a knife and cut her clothes off and banged her with her boots till she got away to a, neighbour's house. She said she had been previously beaten, kept without food all day, and put in a room of which the wiudow was open that the wind might blow throngh her." The child then put the bed- clothes round her, and when defendant knew it she threatened to throw a bucket of water over her if she did not take the clothes off. She had had her eyes blacked on seven occasions, and her father had out her into a convent so that she should be away from her mother's violence. She had ran away and gone into service, and had to leave oecauae defendant abused her mistress and she had been frequently threatened with death, Inspector Pearce and Dr. Powell spoke to the bruises on the girl's body, and the neighbours of the treatment the child had received.Other neigh- boars said the girl was disobedient, and when she dropped the cabbage and was asked to pick it p up said, I won't, you old All the blows administered were with the open hand. Defend- ant said she had seven children to maintain, the father being in prison. She admitted beating the child, but said it was with the open hand. Mr Leeder said the society recognised the difficulty of deahngwith the case because of the large family defendant had to maintain. The Bench said they were satisfied a cruel assault had been committed, but under the circumstances only a small fine would be imposed, because a larger one would be useless—20s and costs, with the alternative of 10 days. The child was placed in Inspector Pearce s j custody till &he is 16 years old.

It was one of those typical spots so dear to the memory of every man who was born in the country. The sight brought back my boyhood days with a rush, and I resolved to be a boy again for a few minutes, and revel in the delight3 of the old swimming hole. Taking off my clothes I joined the boys, who seemed to look upon my presence as a huge joke. But it was not what I expected. The water was only knee deep, the pebbles hurt my feet, and the san blistered my back. I had enough of it in short order, and started for the bank, ignoring the boys' invitation to remain with them. Just as I was nicely dried and about to dress I was hit by a mud ball thrown by one of the young imps in the water. This brought back another flood of memory of how I once enjoyed doing that sort of thing myself, but it didn't keep me from getting mad clean through at heaving to go back into the water to wash off the mud. No sooner had I succeeded in doing so than I was hit by another. The madder I got the more mud the young imps threw. I soon discovered that the war was going against me. and under a flag of truce, which consisted of some of their clothing that I care- fully kept within the zone of fire, I sued for terms of surrender. Finally, by agreement to pay 25 cents as an indemnity, I was allowed to depart in peace." A Lively Customer. This jelly tar was just off on a furlough and stopped in Del roil for a few days to enjoy himself while looking for a former mate who hailed from this port. The old salt on leave was in full uniform, though his bell-bottomed breeches flopped over a pair of low patent leathers, and a full-blown rose nestled where the points of his flowing collar met in front. Of course he took a hack in which to explore the town. All jaunty sailors take a hack for land navigation. As the rig bowled down the avenue with all sails set and doing good 15 knots an hour, one of those patriotic young ladies who has a hero in every man that serves the flag bowed to the smiling Jack. Pcwerse her and t'row out de hook," he shouted to the driver, who mistook the meaning of the ror from within aud clapped on more steam. But the chivalrous impulse of the sailor was not to be baulked. Crash went one of the patent leathers through the closed window, and promptly there followed the beaming face of the sailor as lIe waved his cap to the fair patriot, who blushingly acktiowleaged the salute and hurried on. That'll cost yon a dollar," declared the hack- man, as lie brought everything up standing, spra.ng to the pavement and stood glaring at his grinning fare. Jackie never turned the word as he peeled a 2ilol. bill from his roll and passed it out. Can't change it," said the driver, after the money was in his hand. Jackie bad often been done aud was sus- picions, but equal to the emergency. Who wants yor bloomin' change ? All port holes open," says I, and with his foot shot through the other window. Now we s even, me hearty. Yous have got the blunt, now let 'er roll."

ALLEGED HUGE CITY FRAUDS. What looks like a fraud on a more than usually heroic scale has just been perpetrated on lour prominent London firms of stockbrokers. The Fiancial J'{t'W3 says that according to in- formation received a person who has been well known in City circles for some years, and has been prominently identified with the scientific side of mining, about the middle of last week gave extensive orders to the houses in question to purchase American bearer bonds and shares of various description for his account These orders in every case appear to have been executed, one firm aione having bought stock to the value of £27,000, largely composed of Louisvilles, and handed it over. The purchases wcre paid for by cheques which were dishonoured, aud when the brokers sought for an explanation it was found that the person to whose order the bonds had been bought had'left London for some unknown region oiijThursclay night. It appears that any latent llis inclination to execute the orders was put at rest by a stoiv glibly told of a coming wedding at which the purchaser and another person were. to make the bride a handsome present, and that this dowry—it could hardly have been less, seeing the amounts involved—was to take the shape of first-class American bearer bonds. It wp,s desired to avoid the. formalities of transfers, and.to place the stock in the bride's hand in such a form as to entail no trouble upon her. Under these circumstances the bonds were bought, delivered by the brokers, and paid for with cheques which, like the interesting feline cele- brated in American verse, came back." The detectives are not very sanguine of an arrest, the individual who is wanted being credited with a detailed knowledge of the whole of the habitable and much of the uninhabitable globe. 1

WELSH SCHOOLS WARNED. The Education Department has just issued its list of the public elementary schools warned, under Article 86 of the Code, for the quarter ended 30th September, 1898. In England 24, and in Wales six schools have been warned," the principal reason adduced in each case being inefficiency in the elementary subjects. The Welsh schools thus singled out are :—Llan- gadwaladr, Anglesey (National); Trelech-ar- Bcttws, Carmarthenshire (Davies' Charity) J Aberdaron U.D., Bryncroes, Carnarvonshire (Board) Erbistock (Parochial) and Llansanl- ftraid, Glyn Ceiriog (National), Denbighshire Gorsedd relational), Flintshire. There is not a single Welsh school "warned" for defective j school premises. j

THE MOHEGA DISASTER. Onr correspondent at B,1tim()re, U.S.A., states that Captain Hamilton Murrall, of Cardiff, who was in command of the Missouri when she made the rescue of all liaods on the Danmark, and who served as master of several stcamers in the Atlantic Transport Line, has written to the office of the company in Baltimore city a letter euio- gistic of the officers of the Mohegan. He wrote I am extremely grieved to see the reports of the loss of the Mohegan and so many lives. I deeply sympathise with you in the loss of so cap- able an officer as Captain Griffith and so promis- ing a one as Mr Couch. As both these gentle- men served under my command in your employ- the first as chief officer for 18 months, the second for two years as third and second officer-I am in a position to speak of their sterling worth, and I wish to say that from whatever cause the steamer Mohega,n got ashore I am confident no blame can be attached to either of those officers. If an error of judgment had been made we must not forget that they have lost their own lives as a result thereof. One thing is certain, their action afier the accident upholds the true British senti- ment which makes a man lose his own life in try- ing to save those committed to his care."

DR. WHITMARSH. I Death Sentence Commuted. I The Home Secreta.ry, after a careful considera- tion of the facts of the case, has advised her Majesty to grant a respite to Dr. Whitmarsh, under sentence of death in Newgate Prison for the murder of Alice Bayly, through performing an operation upon her for an illegal pnr- pose. Dr. Whitmarsh was immediately informed of this decision and removed to Holloway Prison, where he will remain pending the decision of the Home Secretary as to what shall be the com- mutation of the sentence.

I IMPORTANT LAW CASE. On Tuesday, in the Queen's Bench Division of the High Court of Justice, before Mr Justice Mathew, sitting to hear commercial causes, a test action was brought on behalf of Thomas Purves, fireman, of Newport, with a home address at Glasgow, against the owners of the Straits of Dover steamship for £ 1 53 3d the amount of his passage and ex- penses from A I ltwerp to Newport after he was discharged at the former port. Mr J. D. John- son was the plaintiff, and Mr Joseph Walton, Q.C.. for the defendants. Purves signed on at Newport, and on the conclusion of the voyage at Antwerp, the captain offered him 12s 6d. sufficieut to take him to Harwich. The plaintiff insisted that he had a" right to be sent to New- port, where he signed on, and claimed £ 1 5s 3d. The other members of the crew accepted J25 6d each. Counsel for the plaintiff submitted that by the third sub-section of section 186 of the Merchant Shipping Act, 1881, the owners were hound to pay the plain- tiff his passage home, which he contended was the port at which he signed 011. Mr Joseph Walton, Q.C., said the subsection applied where any seaman or apprentice belonging to any British ship which terminates her voyage at any port outside her Makissty's dominions." The object of the statute appetred to be that a man should have the means of getting back to his country. If he was discharged outside of her Majesty's dominions the shipowner was to be at the expense of placing him again under the pro- tection of the British law. The man who shipped might be a Canadian or Australian, and the cap- tain must in that case either provide him with employment on some other ship bound to the port- in her Majesty's dominions at which he was originally shipped or to a port of the United Kingdom agreed to by the seaman or, failing either, he must furnish the man with the means of taking him back to some such port.-His Lordship. That would be the port at which he wa.s originally shipped if he did not agree to some other.—Mr Walton said the alternatives were that a man, say he was shipped in Canada or Australia, was to be sent to the place in her Majesty's dominions in which he was shipped or to some port which he agreed to in the United Kingdom. The other alternative was to provide him with a passage home. The question was tho construc- tion of the word home." A sailor's home might be in the United Kingdom or somewhere in one of her Majesty's dominions outside the United Kingdom. Home," he submitted, did not mean any particular town, place, or residence, but the man's own country, wherever that was.-His Lordship A man shipped in Canada you would send to any port in C-,inada ?—Mr Walton Yes. In this case the voya.ge was terminated at Antwerp, and if the man had been shipped in Canada, and he did not wish to go to the United Kingdom, the only course would be to send him to a port in Canada-his "lion-le.His Lordship: You interpret home as any port in the country to which he belongs ?—Mr Walton Yes.—His Lordship said he would consider the point and deliver his judgment this morning.

LANGWORTHY ROMANCE. A Tragic End. Considerable mystery surrounds the tragic deaths of Mr and Mrs Langworthy at the Grand Hotel, Paris. The couple arrived in Paris with their daughter about a week ago, and on Thurs- day the young lady was sent back to England. Early on Friday morning Mrs Langworthy died somewhat suddenly, and it is said that some hours afterwards the report of firearms was heard in Mr Langworthy's room, and the servants rush- ing in found him dying on the floor. There are indications, however, that this is not quite accurate, and further information is eagerly being sought in Paris. This tragedy recalls the sensa- tion at the Langworthy trial. In 1881 Miss Mildred Long, a schoolmistress, met the rich Mr Langworthy in Paris. In September in the following year they were married at Caen by a Roman Catholic priest, and later at Ant- werp, the pair were married by a Presbyterian ceremony. The marriage was kept quiet, but they lived together as man and wife, and a child was born-tlie girl mentioned in connection with the present tragedy, but now a beautiful young lady. Before the birth of the child the pair had cruised about in the husband's yacht. At Buenos Ayres Mr Langworthy began systemati- cally to ill-treat her, and she returned to her father. Proceedings for alimony were begun against Mr Langworthy, and the Divorce Court decided that there had been the Belgian marriage, though it, in fact, was invalid accord- ing to the Belgian law, but awarded Mrs Lang- worthy alimony at the rate of XI,200, which was not paid. Then an action was entered for breach of promise of marriage, and the damages claimed were 120,000. In 1887 this action was settled by ihe payment to Mrs Langworthy of £20,000 and an allowance for the child of XriM a year. The present tragedy-seems to have been connected with an attempt on the part of Mra Langworthy to come to a reconciliation.

Price of Welsh Coal, A SUGGESTION. [BY MERC ATOR.j We have heard a, great deal lately about foreign competition and th displacement of Welsh by North Country or American coal. Judging from the recent Admiralty contracts Welsh coal seems to have the preference still, notwithstanding its advanced prices. There can be no manner of doubt that had the Admiralty gone to the North or to Scotland they could have bought at cheaper prices by some shillings per ton. It would be gratifying if those who have the sell- ing of our coal would pause and recognise that the same reasons which secure Cardiff coal the preference with the Admiralty prevail also with all consumers but it is peculiar to Cardiff that while each colliery watches its neighbours it pays not the slightest attention to the rest of the world. We have a Chamber of Commerce, but the lead- ing men of the district are conspicaous by their absence from its meetings. Some extracts are read from Consular reports, but they are not con- sidered of sufficient importance though they may affect the staple trade of the port to be circulated generally. As an instance of how little interest is taken in the condition under which other places work in competition may be mentioned the fact that steamer freights to the Mediterranean are usually Is per ton less from Newcastle with a greater distance to steam than from Cardiff. Now that the new charter has come into force this is (as has been pointed out) manifestly absurd. Yet here no one has taken the trouble to point this out, nor has it ever come before the Cham- ber. Reference is made from time to time by shipowners perhaps to the price at which foreign coals are obtainable. Agents abroad write home that such and such coals are offering from other countries or districts at certain prices. If sellers here had kept themselves better posted they might often have saved themselves from making a concession in price or they would have better appreciated the IMMENSE ADVANTAGE WALES HAS in the superiority of its coals. The much spoken of Pocahontas coal is nothing like Welsh in size, aad is unscreened, and thus worked at less cost, and can be sold cheaper. For local consumption it has one price, and for export another-signifi. cantly lower. The day is yet distant when we need fear competition from this source because the coal gets its best price at home. But should it seriously enter the lists for export it will find some difficulty in obtaining tonnage except at enhanced rates, for be it remembered America is an exporting country, and is at this moment, as we know to our cost, bidding high for steamers, so that we are left short of tonnage for our requirements. If the United States ex- ported coal to any extent their grain freights would be higher still. The United Kingdom and the North of Europe import largely, and there- fore the coal ports of Great Britain have the advantage of CHEAP OUTWARD SHIPS to carry their produce far and wide. European coalfields would participate in this advantage but for the fact that they lie some hundreds of miles inland, which handicaps them (even with reduced railway tolls) as against British coals for export, and until we see some properly equipped European coal port arise any danger of competition from Continental coal- fields for oversea or transoceaiiie trade may be left out of consideration. Possibly when Ger- many has further developed her magnificent system of canals we may have a fleet of sea- going barges running as far as the Baltic from the inland port of Rulirort, but Westphalia's best trade will ever be in her own particular district. Beyond that large-hearted share- holders in British collieries may console them- selves for the absence of adequate dividends by remembering that right along the German coast their English coal exercises a moderating in- fluence on German prices, and gives the German consumer of coals a better article than his country yields him at low prices. The same state of things exists north and south of France where the leading steamship lines take Welsh coal, a circumstance in no way surprising when one looks at the photograph of the battleship Jaureguiberry, with its volume of smoke, in the Illustrated London News of the 29th October. The Chamber of Commerce would do USEFUL WORK I in obtaining information as to the percentage of small given by various foreign coals, the per- centages of ash and volatile matter, and the heating power, just by way of comparison with the results that companies abroad expect from Welsh coal. Information as to the quantity of coal shipped from Rotterdam, Marseilles, and other places should be carefully tabulated, as also the freights paid. Where Continental coals can enter the field the agents of local firms whoso only care is to sell, and sell big quantities, being paid by commission on the quantity sold, are, as stated above, much given to sending home alarmist reports, too often accepted as true and acted upon, failing reliable in formation such as the Chamber might collect and hold at the disposal of the trade for its benefit. Possibly with this knowledge more generally circulated would come A FEELING OF CONFIDENCE. The immense natural advantages of the British coalfields would be realised, the great superiority of the quality of our steam coals would be done some justice to, and the mineral riches of the country would not be so recklessly flung away. It might even occur to some reflective mind that, be the quality of British coal what it may, it should still command at least a certain price for ballast purposes in the last resort. Then again, if the Chamber of Commerce would tabulate the DIVIDENDS PAID BY FOREIGN COLLIERY COMPANIES and our own, and compare the return the German collieries are giving with the beggarly result obtained by our helter-skelter, head-over-heels, anyhow and everyhow way of business, soma good may be discovered in a system which pre- vents the demand being for ever flooded ont by the supply. With the growing demand for coal, and grow it will for Welsh coal while steamers increase in numbers, a year or two of fair regula- tion of output would provide full work at better prices than of recent years for old and new pits alike.

Dear Sir,—Some time ago I was greatly troubled with Bile and Indigestion, and was advised to make a trial of your renowned preparations, viz., GWILYM EVANS' QUININE BITTERS and DIGESTIVE PEARLS and it is with much pleasure I testify to the great benefit T have received from their use. I have taken several 4s 6d bottles of the BITTERS, and am resolved to keep a bottle always at hand, and take a daily dose an hour before breakfast; for it has not only banished the headaches I frequently suffered from, and neural- gia and rheumatic pains and other ailments which often troubled me are gone for ever, I hope but I can also add it has been effectual in removing the Bile and Indigestion. I find that it has improved my appetite, purified the blood, and cultivated my spirits. I have recom- mended it to several others who now highly praise it as an effectual remedy for different ailments. I remain, Sir, yours gratefully, JAMES DAVIES (Iago Tegeingl), House and Estate Agent. GWILYM EVANS' QUININE BITTERS THE VEGETABLE TONIC. DERIVED MUCH BENEFIT.

GENTLEMEN,—I beg to inform you that I have derived unspeakable benefit from GWILYM EVANS' QUININE BITTERS. 1 was so weak when I first took it that I could not walk to the fireside myself without the assistance of my mother, although I was at the time taking medicine that I had from doctors, which did me no good. One day a friend told me of GWILYM EVANS' QUININE BITTERS, and after I had taken it I felt better in a short time. I have unbounded faith in GWILYM EVANS' QUININE BITTERS, and I thoroughly believe that I would have been dead were it not for the fact that I took it; and I wish to recommend it as the best remedy I ever had for weakness, and I wish every- one to try it, as I am certain they will derive beueiit by so doing.—Yours faithfully, ELLEN WILLIAMS.
