THE EX-CROWN PRINCE. By Telegraph.— Press Assn.—Copyright. London, Feb. 1. The Daily Telegraph’s Berlin correspondent points out that a small but active party is continually pushing the ex-Crown Prince’s candidature for the throne of a revived democratic Empire. He suggests that the Crown Prince’s letter was intended for publication in order that it might be implied that he commended Ipmself to the masses.— Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn. RAILWAYMEN’S WAGES. London, Feb. 1. . A delegate meeting of the Railwaymen’s Union accepted the Wages Board’s decision, cabled on January 26. [The cable in question said that the Scottish Wages Board has rejected the claim of Scottish railway companies to increase the standard working day from eight to ten hour 4. but allowed eight hours spread over up to ten hours, and in exceptional cases, where work is intermittent, to 12 hours. The board also rejected a claim to discontinue special payments for night duty, but allowed a sliding scale reduction of the wages award giving an average increase of five shillings a week granted in June, 920.]
