ILORD DUNLO'S DIVORCE SUIT.
I LORD DUNLO'S DIVORCE SUIT. SECOND DAY. EVIDENCE OF THE EARL OF CLANCARTY. The trial of the Dunlo divorce suit was con- tinued on Thursday in the Divorae Division be- fore Sir James Hannen and a special jury. The petition was that of Lord Dunlo, son tf the Earl of Clancarty, for a divorce by reassn of bis wife's alleged adultery with Mr Isidore Wertheimer" The adultery was denied. The; court was again crowded. Sir Charles Ruasell(for petitioner) called further evidence. Jacob Baltimore, a coloured boy, was the first witness. He said be bad been employed by the Bohee Bros, as a "cornerman." (Laughter.) He was for some time employed as a stable boy for Mr Wertheimer, going there in October, 1888, j In February, 1889, he went to 63, Avenue-road as a page boy. Ha had seen the respondent there frequently with Mr Wertheimer, He recollected Mr Wertheimer oin away for some months, and after that be recollected Lord Dunlo came there. Lady Dunlo afterwards went away. When she came back to live there Mr Isidore Wertheimer came to see her every day. Sometimes he would come to lunch with her, and after lunch they would go into the drawing-room or en the lawn, or for a drive or a walk. Lady Dunlo generally came homa from the music-balls at 11 or 12 o'clock, and Wertheimer accompanied her back. Sometimes he came to the door, &nd sometimes he cams into the hsuse. When he had come in be would stay until half- past twelve. He and Lady Duulo went into the drawing-room, and sometimes into the smoke- room. Occasionally witness went to sleep, and Lady Dunlo would coma to wake bim up. Wit- ness was speaking of the period from February to September. Witness stated that sometimes Mr and Mrs Seymour (sister of respondent) came, but not more than once in a fortnight. On one occasion witness's attention was directed to the key of tbe smoke-room, which was put inside the dcor instaad of outside. He had seen Mr Wer- theimer eo up to the bedroom floor when Lady Dunlo was there. Cross-examined by Mr Lockwood (for respon- dent), witness denied that be was dismissed by Mr Wertheimer. Mr Wertheimer had refused to give him a character. It was a fact that five or six days after Lady Dunlo returned to Avenue- road he left. The occasion on which Mr Wer- theimer went upstairs was in the middle of the day. He did not see Lady Dunlo. She might have been in the drawing-room then. Cross-examined by Mr Gill (for co-respondent), witness admitted that he had ouce been to the police-station for smashing a coffce-room window. Mr Wertheimer had taken him into his service out of pity. Re-examined by Sir Charles Russell He was at the house when Mr Wertheimer returnedSfrom America, and after that time Lady Dunlo came to live there. His Lordship: At the same time I have it recorded, I left five or six days after Lady Dunlo returned." Sir C. Russell: That is true, but I think it is a mistake. Mr Lnckwood objected to bis friend saying that what the witness had stated was a mistake. Witness, replying to Sir C. Russell, said he could not say bow long be was at Avenue-road after Lady Duolo returned there in September. You were understood to say you were there only five or six days ?—It is a mistake; I was there longer than that. Mr G. Ciarke, enquiry agent, said that he was instructed to watch Lady Dunlo, and accordingly he watched from July to October, 1889. On the 19th July he saw Wertheimer maet Lady Duulo as sho left the Empire Theatre, and Mr Wertheimer accompanniad her to Conduit-street, where Lady Dunlo was staying. Wertheimer left Ler there, and drove away to Avenue-road. On the 3rd August Wertheimer met her at the theatre, aud afterwards they went to the Caf6 Royal, and stayed till 12 o'clock. In the morning Lady Dunlo left Bennett-street, where she was staying, and drove in Mr Wertheimer's jrivate cab to Avenue-road. She was there about a quarter of an hour, and came out with Mr Wertheimer, and they drove away in a dog cart. On the 8th of August Lady Dunlo and Wertheimer, after leaving the theatre, went to the Hotel Continental with a gentleman. They stayed until 1.30 in the morning, and all went away together. Oa the 9111 August Lady Dunlo left the theatre at 11 o'clock, and she and Mr Wertheimer went to the Cali Romano alone. Witness spoke to other occasions when he bad seen them go to the Cute Royal alene. They went into the public room. On the 29tii August Lady Dunlo went to live at 63, Avenue-road. On September 9ch witness saw Lady Dunlo ttnd Mr Wertheimor drive from the theatre to Avenue-road, aud Mr There were a lady and ereutlemau with them on occasion. Ou the 10th August,after Lady Dunlo left the theatre, she aud Wertheimer went to the Oaf. Royal, and then Avenue-road, and Mr Wertheimer left at half-past one. He had seen them gossiping together on one occasion. Witness read out the dates from a book which be had before him. In cross-examination by Mr Lockwrooa witness said be bad destroyed his diary in which the original entries were made. His Lordship This examination has proceeded under the impressicn that this was, tLe original book. Mr Lackwood That was my impression. Sir U. Russell and Mr Inderwick fsaid they also thought so. Mr Lockwood asked witness why' he bad deg. troyed bis original reports. Witness: Because I knew that I bad all J wished for the book contained other entries, and was full, and when they are full I destroy them. Who employed you i-My father. Who employed your father ?—Mylgrandfather. (Laughter.) Who employed your grandfather?—That I don't know. Mr George Lewis, I believe. His Lordship here stated ho shouldttell the jury tho book was no corroboration the witness had deliberately destroyed that which would have been corroboration. Replying to Mr Gill, witnesvsaid ho had seen -dr Wertheimer and Lady Dunlo «.o out driving and riding together. Lady Duulo was then in her riding dress. In making the enquiries he did not know that be was acting for Lord Ciancarty. Lord Clancarty (who was statad to be ili and attending against medical advice) was here called by Sir Charles Russeil. He said his son came home on 29.h December, 1889. He had educated him for the army. He failed to pass his examination. He then obtained for him a position jn the Herefordshire Militia, He left to go to Hereford, but went to London instead. He then made up bis mind to send him abroad. Ou the 4th July he engaged Mr Robinson to accompany his son, and Oil the 12th of July engaged two berths for Australia. He first knew of his son's mar- riage from seeing it in a newspaper on the 15th July, 1889. He told his son he was under age, and insisted on his going abruad until he was of ago. From certain information ha received he consulted Mr George Lewis on the 22nd July. He believed bis son bad incurred debts. It has been suggested that you promised to pay his debts if be would undertake to sign a petition against his wife for divorce ?—There is not a word of truth in it. I have not paid his debts. In cross-examination by Mr Lockwood, witness denied that be bad told bis son if he would stay away until December he would give him a good j allowance. If his son jiad written that it war, not a fact. His son represented to him that tl>,« respondent was anxious to go abroad with him. He could not say that his son said he was anxi'ous to take her. Is it true that you told him if he remained with his wife you would have nothing more to do with him ?—Oh, yes. Did you call his attention to a newspaper stat- ing that Lady Dunlo bad bad tbwi children ?—I saw Did you say if she WM left alone she would have another? (Laughter.)—No His Lordship I will have no laugb'ter. Mr Lockwood I suppose you thought there was a better chance ef Lady Dunlo ffcwng wrong if Lord Dunlo was uint away I Lord Clancarty: I did DOt consider the matter one way or the other. Perhaps yon did not cara?—Not much. Did you not think there* was more chance of her going wroug if she were, left by her husband ?— No. I did not think 80 Will you swear you did not think so ?—Well, now you put it in my bead, I think it is extremely probable. At the same time that was not my guide. You expected she would go wrong ?—From what I heard afterward s I thought it was extremeiy probable. I cannot tali when I first formed that idea. It was a matter of such indifference to me. When did you determine to have Lady Dunlo watched ?—On the 22ld July. I put the matter altogether into my solicitor's hands. Replying to another question, Lord Clancarty said be had received a letter from Lady Dunlo asking him to grant her an interview, and stating that there were unfounded reports circulated abont her which she was at a loss to understand. In my husband's absence I have only you to appeal ¡ to," added the writer. Did you send any answer ?—No. Did yoa at any time give this lady a chance of mlttlOg any of the charges you were making against herI never bad an interview with her at all Cross-examined by Mr Gill, Lord Clancarty said his son was anxious himself to have the marriage annulled. He gathered that from a letter in which he BaHt be believed he was married. Your son is perfectly sane?—I think he is new. {Laughter.) I presume this is the letter to which you refer from the petitioner. Mama showed me the Pall Mull Gazette about my marriage. I laughed at it, because there was no use saying anything to her, but I must tell you the truth. I believe I am really married, so there is no use denying it. Why I did it I do not know. There is no excuse to make. I cannot say I was drunk. I do not think I was, but I believe 1 must have be8n rather off my head during the last few mouths. I must say one thing, for all my friends, Mr Benzon, Lord Albert Osberne, Mr Wood, Mr Grant. and espe- cially, Mr Scott have been most kind to me. They went to various Sawyers and solicitors, and did-thoir level best to find out if there was at] y fh win the manage. I know, ot course, I have played the devil. and am truly sorry for it—I mean for you, mother. Catherine, etc. As for myself I do not care a rap. No one i< to blame excent myself. What is be done now :I do not know. I think the soonor I go away the: better. What it to become úf her I must leave to ;olot. 9 thing I caa teil you is. she i, very quâet and. will do whatever you wish ill evtjry way I no IV see clearly what an awful thing I have done. I ha.ve now made a clean brep,st of it, and feel much happier. I lIever expect forgiveness from you. One thing I should iike to say, that no blame can be attached t* the girl all i* my fault. Please understand that whar. I w&nt to know now are your wishes. Lord Clancarty said that was Vhe letter in which be understood Lord Dunlo wrabed to get rid of his wite. Did you approach Lady Dunlo a view ct making some arrangement as to what she was to do ?—No. It did not occur to you that it would be a chivalrous generous thicg to see bis wife 2-J did not believe she was his wlf. I was under the impression the marriage would not be valid until he was 21. Mr George Lewis, "elicitor. was examined as to instructions given by Lord Cyiancarty. Mr H. J. Clarke, enquf ry agent, father of a previous witness, was caUed to speak to visits paid to Lady Dunlo hy Wertheimer in Avenue. road, in September last. /He said on one ocoasion he saw them together in a back room. Mr Wertheimer left at 1.20 i'n the morning. After an adjourumenfi Mr Lockwood intimated that the case was likely to occupy two more days, and be asked that on Friday uf tornoon the hearing might be adjourned Utl,til Monday. Sir James Ha,uneii /.vsssuted to this course. The cross-examination of tbe witness was then proceeded wikl. Witness bad referred to a book as to the date 'of the visits, and said that the entries were made i u a book three days after events, and the he referred to was made up the day before yesterday. What struck you as most important ia what you saw in September I—His caressing her. They were cloae together, and seemed funning and lurking. He pulled her from tbe window, aud, I take it, when puiiher in ho kissed her. (Laughter,) There if nothii. if this in the bcck. Those points are always carried in my memory. (Lsughter.) His Lordsb ip again saiJ, te would have no laughter. Hfj would not have an atmosphere of feeling created en one side or the other. Mary Louisa Palmer, residing in Princes- treet, Hanover-square, said on the 29th October, 7.888, the respondent came to he: housed anil stayed about a month. At that time sbt t ad a nurse and baby with her. Witnest knew her as Mrs Weston. Sho came afyain in Decsmbf.-r, 1888,and stnyeduntil 1889. Duringboth of those periods Mr Wertbemier was a frequent visitor fIt tbe house. She tojd witness that bet husband had gone to India that she was not verjr happy with him as he drank a great deal. She s?ud Mr Wertheimer was looking after bM and. ber child while her husband was away. Rtra Sharman, 7, Bennett-street, St James's, sail t tbat io August, 1889, a .gentleman came and too k apartments for L»dy Dunlo. On the 28th August she left, anJ Mr Werthsimer came and too k the same rooms. WThen she was there be bad cal ied for her. The reason she left was that wit- ue 8 ave ber notice. (Jroas-examinod, slie found the house was being watched by detectives, ond was not awara until IJal ly Dunio came that she was au actress- Mr Abi whams, a solicitor, and Mr Weiton camllJ to the house before she left. We iton rushed into Lady Duulo's room, and she cried for help atid asked wituess to sond them away. Weston resisted, and said he wuuld not gu. Mr Wertheimer afterwards camti and saw Lady Dunlo. Until then be had not set foot in the house. From first to last Lady Dunlo had conducted herself with perfect propriety. After Weston's visit she was dazed, "nd had a large bruise 80 her forehead which witness understood was caused by Weston. Alexander Lumsden, dramatic agent, said he got an engragem»nt at Manchester for Lady Dunlo and her sister in the pantomime of last year. They ba;, £20 a week each for the greater part of the tima. They stayed at the Victoria Hotel. Mr Wertheimer was there. He had seen Mr Wertheimer speak to Lady Dunlo in her bedroom at the hotel. He had seen Mr Wertlyaimer and Lady Duuio when leave taking, and lmd seen him frequently give her a kiss. Sometimes they were not on the best of terms. Sir C. Russell Have YlU seen this kissing at Manchester more than ones ? Witness: Four or five times. Have you seen anything when sho was playing thy, piano?—I have seep him go up to the piano when she was playing and put his arm on ber shoulder in an affectionate sort (If way. They wsre very familiar. Mr Wertheimer used to go up to London once a week. Cross-examined by Mr Lockwood Once when hø called at Avenue-road he saw Lady Dunlo put up her cheek and Wertheimer kissed her. When he called Wertheimer was playing the and Lady Dunlo was smoking a cigarette. Examined by Mr Gill, witness said 1m bad volunteered his evidence yesterday to Mr Lswis in court. The reasons by gave for becoming a witness were t'at Lady Dunlo had treated him badly, and that she had declined to pay bim any commission as an agent. He denied that he had reminded Mr Wertheimer thai Manchester he bad declined to lend bim £3, that bo bad sah, to him tt if he went to Lewis's he might get, a "pony "for saying that he had seen him (Wertheimer) speak to Lady Dunlo in her bedrocm, Mr Clarke (the witness previously in the box) was recalled tv prouuoe a book in which he said tha original entries were made as to the date ia the September visit of Mr Wertheimer. W itness had been to his offices for the purpose of fetching the bock, tut said be could not find it. Mr Lockwood pointed out that in one of the two books which the. witness bad produced, which was the most original one they could get, the wit- ness had mad the entry Lady and gentleman came to back window. Lady called out, gentle- man pr.Ued her iu." Ia the' book which Uie witness said ho bad made up tba day before yesterday the entry was— saw Hiem at the bedroom window over the dining- room. He was in his shirt sleeves. She came to tbe "window and threw it up and called out. He pulled her back into the room and kissed ber." Mr Lockwood asked for an explanation as to there béng no allusion to the kissing in the so-called origiual book. Witness: What I say i*, that he took hold of her. I took it he kissed. I could not swear he actually touched her face. I could not bear ot see that actually kissed her. But you wrote that down ?—That was my im- pression—that be kissed her twiot>. Charles Nunn, who bad been coaenman to Mr Wertheimer, spoke to visits of Mr WertbeiaM" to Lady Duulo before ber marriage* He also mentioned oiycasions on which he said Mr Wertheimer had been it: Lady Dunlo's company after Lord Dunlo went away. He bad d'áven them from thfl theatre in a private cab, and to Richmond and Croydon. After leaving tbe theatre they weut to the Cate Royal for refreshment. Mr Inderwick: Have you ever seen any fanai- larity in the cab ?—W itness No more than bit arm round her in the cab. I should have done the same thing if I had uad the chance with a youoy lady. (Laughter.) His Lordship, w ho had several times during th< dny expressed disapprobation of the iaufirbter4 gave orders tha r, in future the attendance i«, court should be limited. The further rearing was adjourned until to-day.

We have no doubt when our readers have gone through the whole of the story they will declare they have never perused in all their experience a story of greater interest, sensation, bewilder- ment and fascination, than the new work of fiction now presented to the readers of the Cardiff Times and South Wales Weekly News, A MINT OF MONEY! A MINT OF Money A. MINT 0F M0NEY! 1! BY QEORGE lyjANVILLE JjlENN, jL.vJL —- Author of Black Blood, or the Lass that Loved a Soldier," "The Master of the Ceremonies," "Hard to Win," "The Parson of Dum- ford," "This Man's Wife," "The Dark House," k., &c. The Author of the new and original story, entitled "A mint of Money," is an old favourite with readers of Serial Fiction. His books are cheerful in tone, exciting in character, and free from vulgarity and false sentiment. FENN'S Stories are thoroughly interesting and entertaining. They are true to life, and the characters seem actually to live before us. To quote the Athenaeum, "Every page is the work of a man with imagination, and the gift of narra- tive." The Author of A Mint of Money is a past master in the art of manipulating incident and emotion, tragedy and humour, and in his forth- coming work, specially written for serial publica- tion in our columus, Mr Faun will be found at his best. OUTLINE OF THE PLOT. Geo. Manville Fenn's New Story, entitled A Mint of Money," is of oomplioatod dramatic interest, in which the evolution of a mystery is carried on to the last instalment. The chief character, Norman Gartram. is the impoverished scion of a noble house, who, leaving titled penury, engages in business. One of his workmen, injured in an explosion, is a religious enthusiast, and before his death he binds his wife to revenge his murder," as he terms it, by killing his master. The woman, on her husband s death, is taken care of as a servant in Norman Gartram's household meanwhile, a bank failure induces the latter to store an immense sum of money in his own house. Suddenly, he dies-his death being enshrouded in mystery. No fewer than six theories are advanced to account for his death, and the keenest interest is excited as to the denouement. A stronp: lovo plot runs through the wotk, the heroine being Norman Gartram's beautiful and wealthy daughter. THE NEW STORY A MINT OF MONEY. A MINT OF MONEY. A MINT OF MONEY. A MINT OF MONEY.

THE EIGHT HOURS QUESTION
THE EIGHT HOURS QUESTION DEBATE BETWEEN MR HYNDMAN AND MR BRADLAUGH. On Wednesday evening the debate between Mr Hyndman and Mr Bradlaugi), on the Eight Hours Proposal, took place at St. James's Hall, London. The immense building was crowded half an hour before the time for the commence- ment of the proceedings, and this in spite of the fact that a charge was made for admission to at any rate a large number of seats.—The chair was taken by Mr Sydney Buxton, M.P., who in a few preliminary words explained how the pro- ceedings were to be conducted. Mr Hyndman was to open the debate in a speech of half an hour's duration, and Mr Bradlaugh was then to bold the attention of the audience for a like perkd. After that they were both to make two speeches of quarter of an hour's dura- tion, the final utterance being, ef course, that of Mr Bradlaugh, The Chairman went on to explain that Mr Hyndman bad drawn up a pro- position embodying his views, and that Mr Brad- laugh had drawn up a counter proposition. The proposition was in the following terms That the enactment by law of eight burs a day, or 48 hours a week as the continuous amount of work f'r adults m all factories, mines, workshops, and businesses conducted foe profit, will prove a valuable ^palliative 0m. present industrial anarchy. Mr Bradlaugh's counter proposition ran as follows That it is desirable that all wage-earners should work-the smallest number of hours per day consistently with the profitable conduct of the industry in which they are respec- tivaly engaged that the limitation of eight hours a day as the period during which an industrial establishment may be carried on would be fatal to many lkrge industries in this country; and that the hours of labour in such industries should be severally settled by conciliatory conferences between employed and employers, or tbeir repre- sentatives. The chairman made the further announcement that no show of hands would be called for at the termination of the debate, and no attempt made by any other means to test the feeling of the audience as to the respective claims ot^the d1Sputants. The debate then opened, and it was conducted precisely on the lines laid down by the chairman. To giva in a short space anything Hka an exhaustive and a fatr rd.ume of the arguments brought forward would of course be impossible. It woald also be futule to attempt to award the palm of victory. Perhaps it would be accurate to say that both the disputants Were victorious. Certainly neither was defeated-tiat » to say, in th» sense of being silenced and confounded. Each maintained a tone of triumph to the ead, and each asserted that his opponent had .shirked the issues raised. It was a circumstance that probably caused ninny persons surprise, that, while Mr Hyndman kept perfectly cool and collected throughout the de- b.ite.Mr Bradlaugii showed a considerable amount of feeling. True, bid opponents in the audience wpre much more demonstrative than those of Mr Hyndmau. During the debate Mr Bradlaugh nÜormed tus hearer> that a much greater strain had been put upou him than he bad anticipated would be the case A vote of thanks to the econded by Mr Bradlaugb brouht the roceed. logs to a close.

THE CLAIMS OF POSTMEN.
THE CLAIMS OF POSTMEN. DEPUT ATION TO THE POSTMASTER. GENERAL. The P'ostmaster-Gerieral on Thursday received a deu tation at the General Po.st-ofSce, of the district postmen. Mr Kirk, of tho western district, was spokesman. He said they saugbt sma II additions to the promotion money of post- mil n and sorters that postmen should re re- li'ivei of the burden of delivering parcels, and that the dismissed men should be re- instated. They were led oa by agitators, and were thoroughly sorry for the part tboy bad taken in the matter. Severetl others spoke. Mr Raikes, in reply, said he was very pleased to meet the deputation, and heartily concurred in some of the suggestions they made. He had already instituted a strict inquiry iatotha circumstances under which certain lnen were dis- missed, and if he could see clear bearing in mind the interests of 'the de- partment and the maintenance of discipline, to alter the action taken he do so. H 1\ should be extremely gla if it should be in. his power to find places for some at all events of the men who had gon* out, but he must protect the service from a repetition of the unhappy events of the past few weeks.
