COAL STRIKT.
RAILWAYMEN DECIDED.
LONDON, April 7.
The delegate conference of the Railwaynen's Union unanimously decided that the miners were justified in refusing to accept the conditions offered them. The railwaymen feel that acceptance of the conditions by the miners would be the beginning of a general attack on working class conditions and an attempt to reestablish the pre-war standard. The rail- waymen therefore have decided to invite the transport workers to join in immediate consultation with the object of taking the most effective and speedy steps to assist the miners.
STILL HOPE.
LONDON, April 7. The local authorities have been instructed to enrol special constables The situation to-night, though grave, is not devoid of hope. It is believed that certain influential Labour leaders are exercising pressure on the miners with view to creating an atmosphere favourable to peace parleys. It is considered significant that to-night's Triple Alliance conference was not held in spite of the fact that both the railwaymen and transport workers have reached decisions apparently clearing the way for the Triple Alliance to move. It is also noted that neither of these decisions costains specific "reference to a strike. Meanwhile, it is understood that the Cabinet is
united and unflinching on the questions of subsidy and no control.
ALLEGED ADULTERY.
PRIVY COUNCIL HEARS-ARCHDEACON'S APPEAL.
LONDON, April 8.

Professor Jordan for the Honorary "Degree which the University is about to confer upon him. (Applause.) It is sometimes true of those upon whom honorary““, degrees' are con- ferred that their distinction' it not academic. That is not iò in the case of Professor Jordan.. Not only has he studied in his own University but in Paris-London, Vienna, and in my own old University, of Cam- bridge. He has been associated, I believe, with every public medical work in this Colony since his arrival bere. It is quite recently that through his influence We ame indebted for these additional medical schools of which I have hist spoken,
and ope other title
to fame I may mention;when we draw up our list of pions founders and bene- facters, foremost amongst them will figure the original founders of the Hongkong College of Medicine, Sir Patrick Manson, Sir James Cantlic whose so we have with us to-day, and Professor Jordan-Loud applause)-One last remark. Every seat of true learning is in a certain! sense democratic," Never is it more true than in the conferment of hon- orary degrees. It is the highest com pliment the University can confer, and half its value would be lost were: it not for the ratification of the applause of the populace, in this case the undergraduates in the gallery. The expressions of esteem and re- spect in which Professor Jordan ia held amongst our students is doubly due to-day owing to the fact that the Union buildings are about to be furnished in a worthy manner with a sum of some $20,000 collected by Professor Jordan from among his personal friends-(Applause).
The Vice-Chancellor then presented Dr. Jordan for the degree of Doctor of Laws honoris causa, which The Chancellor conferred.
The actual words in which the Chancellor conferred the degree were lost in the pasan of applause from the students in the gallery, which was accompanied by the firing of crackers and the beating of gangs.
DR. JORDAN'S SPEECH. Professor G.P. Jordan said "I can- not find words to sufficiently express the mixed feelings with which Istand before you today. Mixed these are! because I am unable to adequately express-my deep sense of gratitude for the high honour the University has seen fit to confer upon me.
