PROVINCIAL STRONGHOLDS
IN LONDON.
Country Bred v. Cookney.
There is no gain saying that the koonest competitor the Londoner has is not the foreigner, but the provincial. Some trades in the great city are solely, recruited from outside the metropolitan area, others are gradually being monopolised by the country bred, rnd in a few, the real Cockney is al« ready a rara avis. Indeed, there are many |provincial strongholds in London-strong. holds which correspond to some extent to those of the English in Paris, Rume, and other Continental cities. In some parts of the metropolis there are 'shops which are wholly supported by people from certain countries, as, for instance, one in which only Devonahíre delicacies and other produce are sold.
Two things which have little in common -practicality and patriotism-avo largely responsible for the provincial invasion of London, so far as it is controlled by employers. Practicality is a factor in the matter because in some trades masters will not take apprentices, Specialisation and the minute subdivision of labour have been carried to such a pitch in the metropolis that it is practically impossible in certains trades--branches of the building trade, become 'all-round workers in London.

As a result, the ranks of such trades have |for years been recruited from the provinces,

One minor, albeit important, industry- that of the cutler-is now almost entirely in the hands of provincials, the majority of whom, as might be expected, come fra Sheffield. Hallamshire blades are in the majority in nearly every cutlery establish- ment in London.
Patriotism (its other name isclannishness) has an effect on the provincial invasion of London in connection with those industries in which the employers themselves are mostly country bred. Everybody has noticed that, as a rule, an Irish or Scottish firm prefers assistants from its own country, and, indeed, sometimes refuses to engage any others. A well-known provision house for instance, is a veritable Scottish strong- hold; and in the same way a certain Irish firm of licensed victuallers employs only inmigrants from the Green Isle as barmen. Excellent servanta as these importations mako, they are wont to give convincing, NE 10E-MAKING MACHINE, with proofs of their nationality. One day a ONGAS ENGINE Complete.

gentleman refused to accept a bottle of soda water from a Milesian employed by the firm on the ground that it was per- fectly flat and lifeless, whereupon the assistant apologetically explained that it was fresh,' and brought another bottle. Determined that there should be no reason for complaint this time, he removed the cork, and to the unbounded amazement of the customer-who is in the mineral water trade-calmly watched the effervescence subside before pouring the water inta & glass!!
What happens in isolated cases like those is common in certain trados, with the re- sult that those trades are very largely in The milk trade, in provincial hands. which the Welsh are so strong, is a case in point. One man from the Principality, whose own beginnings in London were of the humblest, has not only installed seven or eight of his relations in dairies, but has also brought up to town from Wales scores of men as assistants or barrow-men. And the same thing has been done to a greater or lesser extent by others, till now the- Welsh have probably more than one-half of the entire milk trade of London..
Another instance much to the point is the drapery trade. In the wholesale houses provincials have nearly always a better chance of engagement-and advancement -than Londoners, mainly because the principals themselves so often hail from the country. Manchester is exceedingly well represented in the Wood Street area, numbers of Mancunians coming to London after they have gained experience in their native city. Some, indeed, are promotod by employers in Manchester to their City houses.
In the retail drapery establishments the proportion of provincials is less striking but this is solely owing to the circumstance that the female assistants are mostly
Londoners. Taking men only, the prepon derarice of those from the country is as great in shops and stores as it is in ware- houses. Of all parts of the three kingdoms Wales is by far the best represented in the retail drapery marts, and the reason is plain to anybody who uses his oyes in Regent Street and Oxford Street, and no- tices the Welsh names over such shopa.
Other reasons, however, are responsible for the dominance of provincials in 'some, trades and industries. Their superior physique tells in breweries, at least for dray work while on railways there supremacy is due to a combination of circumstances. When the Great Central
invaded London it brought with it from its
offices and sheds in Manchestor a little army of nien of various grades, one result $2.101 £5.5.0 of which transference is that there is now.

quite a Manchester colony at Neasden. Uther companies remove men from the provinces to London in a similar way, only ant on the same scale. Their metropolitan staffs are recruited from their country' staff as "acancies arise. Hence, practically all the new blood in most grades of the service is drawn from the country, and not from London itself
The effects of this practice are curious Round every engine shed, for instance,. there is a regular provincial colony. In some grades of railway service in London, again, it is almost impossible to find a
Cockney, while in a few he is absolutely
non-existent, all the men being provincials, But if the whole of railway company's London staff be taken, it will be found that the proportion of country bred men is very large indeed-in some cases 80 or 90 per cent, Clearly, therefore, there is some 1331 point in the paradox that London is
becoming the most provincial of cities.

We regret that we cannot publish all of the minutes of the meeting of August 16, which were supplied to-day, as the majority of them are undecipherable. We give what we can read:-
AN EMPIRE CABLE SCHEME. In connection with the scheme advanced by the Board of Trade, Ottawa, for the construction of an Empire Cable, the Cham. ber of Commerce replied to the suggestion by stating that, although they sympathised with the objects in view, as the Colony was cosmopolition, they were not prepared to unduly favour all British routes,' but

this assertion would find a good argument APPLICATION FOR REGISTRATION from Chinese ancient history, for though I-ti was banished, and though Yu was a teetotaller, yet the last emperor of the line floated boats in lakes made of wine to please a favourite concubine. Yu's efforts were doomed to failure. One may record the fact that Yu valued punctuality. In a country, where sheung ha' up or down, is a phrase in constant use, it is refreshing to find that Yu executed a noble because he was behind hand with an appointment. It is a pity that there were not other examples, and then to-day perhaps there would be less exasperation among foreigners, on so count of the use of the phrase 'sheung ha.' Yu died in harness at the advanced age of one hundred. The memory of Yu has been hauded down by the early writers of China,

ACCIDENT
AT THE

NAVAI
An inquiry was held at the Magistraev this morning, by Mr H H. J. Gompertz and a jury consisting of Massrs. H. A. Lam mert (foreman), A. Boyd und L. S. Jame sou, concerning the death of a Chinaman named Choung Kam Teai, which occurred at the Naval Yard Extension on August 31. Inspector Gourlay conducted the enquiry on behalf of the police.
Dr Hunter, Assistant Superintendent of the Government Civil Hospital, stated that- he held a post mortem examination on the body of the deceased and found that death had been caused by a fracture to the skull, The whole of the skull was flattened as if sotne very heavy weight had fallen on it. There were a few bruises on the body but no bones brokon. The injuries to the deconsed's head would have brought death about almost inst ntaneously.

The No. 1 boy, who was in charge of the gang of wen shift- ing the machine, stated that they were moving the crane forward and when about six inches from the end of the line he heard beam cracking and told the men to run away. The beam suapped and the crane fell over, crushing the deceased's head.
After further evidence being taken, a verdict of accidental death was returned.
THE PROMENADE CONCERT.
The Volunteer Corps were favoured with
a bright starry night for thetr concert on the Farade Ground last night, though throughout the day the weather did not look as if it would be clement. There was good attendance, and but for the delay
in getting the items through, everything went off satisfactorily. The entertainment provided was extremely pleasing and all those who took part acquitted themselves well and gave considerable pleasure to those

The band of the 114th Mahrattas played several enjoyable solections. Mr W. E.
