What a welsh Tin-Plate Man Thinks.

LONDON, May 4.-One of the larg-
est makers OF tin-plate in Wales
has refused to join the proposed
movement for general stoppage of pro-
duction. He declares that the recent
Democratic victories in the United States
have shown that the new tariff is an I'M
stable thing. Even should the Americans
go into the business, he says, they would
find it impossible to make $4,000 tons per
annum, rs has been claimed, and would
be doing well if they succeeded in pro-
fucinp 60 600 boxes yearly.

LONDON, May 4.-The meeting in Hyde
park yesterday was an immense affair. 4
popularity of the procession to the park
was that each of the trade Of tanners car
ried whole hide, inscribed "Simon the
Tanner" In Hyde park Mann and Burns
were the principal speakers, Mann repre-
senting the labor element, pure and SIM
pie, and Burns advocating labor in con-
nection with Socialism. The line between
the two was plainly drawn, and while the
better sort appeard to favor Mann, the
majority rather sided with Burns and his
advanced Soeialistic ideas. but an i'm
metse crowd surrounded each of the two
speakers Whitechapel was presented en-
masse, and decidedly favored Burns. Sim
liar gatherings were held throughout
Great Britain, and 10000 men were in the
procession that marched to Phenix park,
Dublin.
Bound to Have Eight Hours.
The miners federation is resolved, ire
spective of the royal labor commission, to
continue in the demand for an eight
hours working day in the mines. They
have repudiatei the action of Mr. Burt,
NJ. p, in opposing the eight-hour move
ment in parliament, and they declare
that fve-sixths of the mining population
of Great Britain is for the eight hour
system. They have the support of SIR
James Bain the new member from White
Haven, himself lessee of collieries
Curious Position of the Women.
In the procession there was large
body of women and, strangely enough
partly as a protest against legislation
supposed to be for the protection of their
sex. The self-supporting women of Eng
land do not want any further legal re-
striction upon their hours of labor than
that which already exists. Every year
the English woman is becoming less de-
pendent and more self-supporting, and
she sees, concealed under cover of pre-
tended benefits suggested by the men
prominent in labor agitation, what she
believes to be a jealous purpose to re-
strict her field OF action. 1t is for this
reason that the women are meeting and
passing resolutions regulating the prop
osition OF their self-appointed benefac5-
ors.
Makes Martyr of Him.
The Imprisonment of j. II. Wilson, sec
rotary of the Seamen's and Fireman's un-
ion, for alleged disorderly conduct at
Cardiff, is likely TO result in his election &c
parliament, ii having been resolved TO put
him forward as a candidate for Depart
ford. Wilson is a very aggressive per
son, arrogant and dictatorial, and his
course had much to do with promoting
the antagonism between the sailors ana
the Shipping federation. Had he beer
left alone or dismissed with a reprimanC
he might have sunk out of sight, after tbs
federation had practically won the day
but his Imprisonment has made aim {
martyr, and as such be is to be sent to tn,
house Of commons.

France, therefore, views with the great
est Jealousy any proposed alienation of
Haytien territory, and is ready to show
her teeth to prevent it. Englishmen are
watching curiously to see whether Amer
lea will give France a pretext for making
substantial and political a protectorate
over Hayti which has been heretofore So

uation is regarded with more interest here
than Americans can imagine.
A short time ago the United States
tried to obtain the Mole St. Nicholas for
naval station, and Hayti rejected the
proposition.

ed to their talk in the reception room.
She saw the court room, the judge and
Jury, herself in the witness box, and then
in the prisoners dock the pallid counte-
nance, framed in black hair, of the youth
who was on trial for his life. He was
condemned; he was dead; his look seemed
to reproach her for his death.
Either her eyes were dim or the room
had grown strangely dusky. What
light there was appeared to concentrate
on the mirror. In its depths a figure
darkly appeared, growing more distinct
as she gazed upon it. What was it?
Not her own reflection. She had not
moved from her position. No. This
figure stood erect; it was clothed in black
garments; it advanced from a shadowy
background. 1t was the figure of a man;
surely she had seen it before! Her nerves
thrilled cold and her joints stiffened as
she looked. Was her visitor assuming
concrete form before her eyes? The face
was still obscure; but in that slowly in
creasing and lifting light it dawned into
appalling visibility. And now it was re-
vealed! 1t was he-it was Keppel Darke!
A black veil seemed to swathe the lower
part of his countenance; his features
were contorted in CHASTITY stare, direct
ed upon her. He raised his hands and ap-
peared to struggle with the semblance
of rope about his neck. Then he point
ed to the floor at her feet, and with
sudden flash of conviction she knew that
this room, so cunningly disguised, was
the room in which Harry Trent had
fallen, stabbed to the heart! With
shrek she sprang to her feet and stag
gered forward.
