The deeds of tic EiShopric Of Durham
contain records If grants Of land to col

parts Of the county. In the year 1889 u
charter was granted by Henry III to the
freemcn of Newcastle-On-Tyno to dig
coal III the fields belonging to the cas-
tie, and it was i'll or about this year
that coal was first sent to London. Very
early in the fourteenth century evidence
abounds of u large consumption of coal
by smiths, brewers and others. Already
the smoke nuisance appeared, and a
commission Of Edward | levied fines to
prevent it.
Another charter, Or license. was grant

town walls, and III the year 1867 coal

Letter From Sir Henry Clark Sharply
Criticized
London. October 19.-Sir Edward
Clark writes to the Times this morning
regarding the criticisms of his speech
con,esting the justice of the British
claims IN the Venezuela case. Sir Ed
ward says that he did not suggest that
the Venezuelan question was being used
by either party in the United States as
d factor in the Presidential election.
The object Of my speech he says,
was to point to the danger of delaying
a settlement until after the election.
quoted a passage from the Venezuelan
case alleging d Justification of the maps,
but expressing my disbelief in the truth
of these accusa lions for the purpose Of
showing the serious elements of danger
# the question comes 10 be matter Of
hot controversy between the United
States and England
The Times says editorially OF the
above:
Sir Edward Clark's letter is an in
ADEQUATE answer. He showed a curious
ignorance of the elements OF the con-
kroversy when he was tempted to talk
of it several months ago. II is lament
able that a man who has been a law Of
ficer of the Crown, and an officer OF the
Crown should lay himself open to re-
proof in such a manner"
