Senator Bagwell, who is general manager of the Great Northern Railway, was kidnapped by armed men while walking to his home from the railway station at Howth last night. Mrs.

Bagwell, who was with her husband when he was kidnapped, says: 'When we reached a lane near the house I noticed a number of men, three of them standing on the opposite side of the road. I had hardly noticed them when they closed in on us, at the same time taking revolvers from their pocnts and covering us. "One of the men, apparently the leader of the party. said, 'Mr. Baww-ell, you must come along with "My husband replied that he could not possibly accompany them; he would have to see his wife into the house safely.

But the men would notiallow him to see me in. They insisted on going at once, declaring that they hail received their orders. "We talked with the men for a long tithe, and they seemed to be considerate enough. They all tried to reassure me, and said that my husband would probably be home again soon.

A taxi-cab in which 'was seated a driver, wearing a chauffeur's cap, and another man. who kept his head turned away, came round the corner, and my husband was pushed into it, The car then drove off, leaving me out on the roadway." The theory in Dublin is that Mr. Bagwell was taken as a hostage for the safety of pri-soners in military custody. When inquiry was made at the Great Northern Railway headquarters to-day the officials had no news of Mr.

SMALLPDX AT CLITHEROE. An outbreak Of smallpox has occurred at Ciltheroe. So far, however, only one case has been notified, and this is stated tt. 1 of a mild type.

OCIETY and politics were represented in full force arSt. Margaret's Church, Westminster, to-day, for the wedding of Sir Edward Grigg, M.P. for Oldham, and the Hon. Joan Poyn.der, only child of Lord and Lady Islington, of Portman Square, London, and Rushbrooke Hall, Bury St. Edmonds.

Kiss Poynder Sir Edward Grigg, who is a fine soldier, was military secretary to the Prince of Wales during his Canadian tour, and in May, 1921, became Mr. Lloyd George's private secretary. The bride, who is a dark-haired girl of much beauty, is also talented, and was never weary of well-doing during the war, working in a field hospital on the battlefields of France after qualifying for nursing. The Bishop of Worcester officiated at the ceremony, assisted by the Rev. F.

Head, M.C., and the bridal procession was original as well as picturesque. There were ten children in all, four pages and six little girls, all wearing picture costumes designed from the famous picture of the Balbi children in the National Gallery. They were Lady Katherine Fitzrnaurice, the Countess of Kerry's little girl; Miss Rosemary Grosvenor, daughter of Lady Edward Grosvenor; Miss Virginia Brand, daughter of the Hon. Robert and Mrs. Brand; Miss Laura Charteris, daughter of the Hon.

Guy and Mrs. Charteris; Miss Patsy Grant, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Grant; Miss Angela Ward, daughter of Mr. and Mrs.

Dudley Ward; the Hon. Peter Cecil, son of Lord and Lady Cranborne; the Hon. John Jacob Astor, son of Lord and Lady Astor; the Hon. David Simon St. Clair Erskine, son of the Earl and Countess of Rosslyn; and Master Julian Asquith, son of Mrs.

Raymond Asquith. CRIMSON AND GOLD. For the pagtes, brilliant costumes in crimson and pruze purple had been evolved. The Hon. Peter Cecil wore slashed shorts puffed to reveal the purple satin, arid his red jacket was embroidered with gold braid.

His companions were almost clothed in gold and had crimson velvet cloaks slung from the shoulders lined with purple. Stiffly-embossed velvet made the bridesmaid's gowns, each one of a Efferent ehade, crimson, golden yellow, green, pale mauve, and Wedgwood blue and turquoise, with silver or gold braid as the colour scheme decided. In the front of the dresses jewelled buttone repeated the rolom of the gown, and wired collars and cuffs ot gold lace were worn. Caps of gold or silver braid, with jewels at each latticed centre, proved mediwval in style and becoming to each wearer. Lord Islington gave his daughter away, and her wh4e velvet wedding dress was on ample lines, with a full skirt and a silver train, the tissue embos.sed with white xellpq roses.

Her veil was of tulle, and reached to the end of train, fastened beneath the traditional 'orange blossom. At the church a guard of honour was formed by the Islington Girl Guides, of which the bride is commissioner. PRESENTS mom BOYALTY.

ADVICE TO OPERATORS. To Go Slow for the Present. (By Our Financial Correspondent.) The stock markets are now so much dominated by foreign politics that the rumour, wl'ich was improbable on the face of it, that the Turks had signed the treaty at Lausanne produced an immediate recovery. It has, however, proved a case af the wish being father to the thought, and it is to be feared that the markets will remain on thorns for some time yet before Turkey ceases from troubling. II the meantime the best advice that can be given to speculative operators is to go slow for the present.

Permanent investors can with confidence remain where they are. HOME RAILS. The home railway market has been affected perhaps more by the setback in gilt-edged securities than 'by foreign politics. If, however, the Great Northern and Great North of Scotland dividend announcements are a fair criterion of the declarations to come they need not worry. The idea is gaining ground in usually well-informed quarters that the boards of many of the companies will be disposed to mark the passing of the companies irri the old form by increasing their distributions from the sweepings of previous years in addition to drawing upon compensation monies to same extent.

It is estimated that only a. small portion of the fifty millions sterling or so so far received by the companies as compensation monies has as yet reached the stock holders in the form of dividends. Further proof of the recovery in trade is afforded by the improvement indicated in the accounts of Blundell Spence 2nd Company, a dividend being proposed on the ordinary shares in reepect of the year ended October 31 last, at the rate of 8 per oent per annum, lese tax (ae against 5 per cent for 1920-21), payable in two instalments. After making allocations to various funds a balance of over £19,000 is carried forward. THE MINING MARKET.

The mining market is once again disposed to look on the brighter side of things, and the Kaffir Circus, for instance, is in hopes of better Limes in view of the expected improved showing of the many returns, and also the fart that in February a large number of shares will be quoted ex dividend. Diamond shares, too, shoWd on merits stawl at a higher level. The obstacle, and a formidable one it is, consists of the disturbed condition of foreign polities and the effects thereof on the Paris Bourse. Rhodesians do not seem to rest or long and such shares as Chartered, Cam and Motor, and Rezende keep bobbing up every now and again. are holding their ground well but a good deal must depend upon the character of the next news from the Canadian property.

Associated Gold Mines, too, have become en active market coucter and should do very well out, of their silver interest. What, however. i really remarkable is the fact that most of the base metal sections keep so quite despite the continued strength of the metal market. MANCHESTER COTTON. No General Display of Confidence.

The market is very slow in recovering confidence. For this the international political situation is undoubtedly responsible, and until the outlook clears there is bound to be a considerable amount of nervousness. The volume of cloth inquiry available while not negligible is considerably less than it was. The turnover for Indian outlets may be described as unimportant. Calcutta offers are now comparatively scarce.

What little busiuess is attempted is in light fabrics and fancies. Sellers of grey shirtings are not even being seriously troubled for prices. Bombay, Madras, and Karachi all appear to be less interested. Further East the situation is unchanged. A small 'business is being done for the little markets, but both Shanghai and .11 ng Kong are disappointing.

The turnover for the markets of the Mediterranean is not by any means impressive. Operations for the home trade and Colonial outlets continue strictly modest. Business in yarhs continues on a smaller scale, particularly as regards American counts. The action of the Federation in urging a continuance of short time is generally approved as the only remedy for a desperate situation. The offers available can only be taken at a serious loss.

AUSTRIAN "COMMERCIALS" Visits to Manchester to Try to do Business. While so far few German commercial travellers have visited Manchester to try to do business Austrian representatives ar coming here," remarked a City business man to an "Evening News" representative to-day. "The practice of our firm is to show the door to German representatives. We have never, in fact. had any dealings them since the war, but we have bought a itom Austrian traveller a although there are difficulties in getting deliveries." The head of another firm tolrt our representative that an Austrian trity(lier, in order to do business, ha.d offered tim liveries of certain goods by aeroplane.

NEW AIR SERVICE. Manchester to Birmingham in 45 Minutes for El. When the British Industries Fair opens at Birmingham next month express passenger aeroplanes, which will alight on and depart from the fair grounds, will connect the city with Manchester. London, and the Continent. The Daimler Airway will begeft the service on February 19, and the inaciines that are engaged on the daily Manchester to London service will call at Birmingham when making the trip in each direction.

The fare from Manchester to Birmingham will be as compared with the single railway fare of 10s. sd, third class, and 17s. 4d. first class. The eleven seater machines will fly the journey in 45 minutes from Manchester, against the two hours' train journey, and the air connection the Continent via London will enable foreign visitors to the fair to be in Amsterdam or Paris less than 3i hours after leaving the fair.

The bad weather of late has somewhat disturbed the air services, but the Manchester to London journey has been made by the Daimler machines fairly regularly in 90 minutes, with an average of four passengers. The B. machine, which opened the service, has now flown 170,000 miles without mishap. BAITING POLICEMEN. Bradford Roughs Favourite Pastime.

Exemplary punishment was meted out by the Manchester City Magistrates (Sir W. Boyd Dawkins and Dr. Dearden), to-day, upon William Clews, aged 27, a powerfully-built young fellow, of Bedson-street, Bradfordp Manchester, for committing an aggravated assault upon his wife, and also assaulting the police. The evidence showed that Clews, whose wife has obtained a separation order against him, went to her yesterday afternoon about four o'clock, in a drunken condition, and asked her to return to live with him. She refused, and told him to go away, whereupon the man grabbed her by the hair of her head and swung her round the yard.

He theft struck his wife in the face, threw her to the ground, and kicked her in the mouth, causing painful injuries which necessitated the insertion of four stitches at Ancoats Hospital. Some footballers went to the woman's rescue and later informed Police-constable Lindop, wh found Clews behaving like a madman. He ran away through another house and into the backyard on seeing the constable, who, after securing the assistance of Pohoe-Constable Evans, arrested Clews and took him to the police station. On the way there he struggled viclently, kicked the officers, and damaged their uniforms. For the aggravated assault.

Clews was sent to gaol for six months with hard labour, with one month for the assault on the police, and 14 days for the damage. Court-Inspector Coffey, in reply to the Chairman, said the prisoner's favourite "pastime" was "baiting and he waa an Undesirable cluxlaterr NO SHORT CUTS TO HEAVEN. BISHOP OF MANCHESTER'S REPLY TO H. G. WELLS.

HAS THE CHURCH FAILED? Striking Indictment by Famous Novelist. 'WHEN the Archbishop of York said that the Church of England had lost its power as a moving force in the daily lives of the people, he set many men and women thinking earnestly. And now Mr. H. G.

Wells cornea forward with a striking indictment of the Church, in which he says: AN AGE OF GREAT DISTRESSES. More people are asking to-day, and asking with a new intensity: 'What must I do to bt. The trouble with the Christian churches is that they give a confused, unconvincing, and unsatisfying answer. This is an age of great distresses, but it is also an age of cold, abundant light. People know more than was ever known before of the history of life in space and the origins of the creeds and symbols of Christianity, of the possibilities of human existence.

"They are repelled when, in answer to that passionate inquiry for salvation, Christian exponent, dressed up like an priest of three thousand years ago, performs mysterious chants and motions and offers incomprehensible sacraments. "They are repelled when he embarks upon tedious explanations of the multiplicity and unity of the Deity. SELL ALL THAT IT HATE: This indictment was written in reply to a question by the editor of Pearson's Magazine "Are we as a nation indifferent to religion?" and in concluding it. Mr. Wells says: I would suggest that Christianity sell all that it hath and follow after Jesus of Nazareth, that it scrap its theologies and organisations and, taking neither scrip nor purse, set out to find the lost Kingdom of God.

Copies of Mr. Wells's letter were sent to 50 bishops of the Church of England, of whom five forwarded replies which are appearing in the magazine. CHURCH'S REPLY. Mistake Made by Many Good, Sound Fellows. The Bishop of Manchester is among the five, and in his reply he says: To "follow the teachings of Jesus of Nazareth" means a good deal more than to admire them.

There are many Church people who do little to exhibit the cower of their religion; but those who exhibit real redemptive power are nearly devout Christians. My pMblie-spirited agnostic friends, of whom I have a large number, are not for example, in Rescue Work they are reform the organisation of life; they scarcely attempt to rebuild character. When all is said and done I am convinced that the main reason why the Church repels" is that it steadily refuses to offer short cuts to the Kingdom of Heaven. and says to those who are generally interested in movements," as no doubt Nicodemus was, though he was timid about even that, that they can never arrive where they want to be except by a change in themselves personally, and there are many today who want to put the world right without themselves ever going beyond the principles of the good sound fellow in their own lives. After all, if God exists, the world is His, and we can only put it right in His way.

If we want to pursue our own methods and. regard God as a valuable ally, we are invulved in absurdity from the onset and should do far better by leaving Him out altogether. I can never be quite sure which is the position taken up by Mr. Well, but I think he wants us to settle our own line of advance and then call God in to help, having first agreed on that conception of Him which seems to give most hope of such assistance. ANOTHER LINK GONE.

Death of a Once-prominent Music Hall Favourite. The death has taken place of Mr, Leo Stormont, the music-hall singer, who sorry years ago was a prominent figure on the music-hall stage. He underwent an operation a few weeks ago. A contemporary of Arthur Roberts, Tom Costello, Leo Dryden, and other well-known artists, Leo Stormont began his career a vocalist. Possessed of a powerful baritone voice, which he used with dramatic effect, he popularised a numilar of what are now standard ballads, and in the early days of the music-hall was a much appreciated "single turn" at the old Tivoli and the Oxford.

Later he appeared in sketches, in which he showed great versatility. As an elocutionist he will be remembered for his patriotic and descriptive recitations, During the South African war he sang a number of patriotic songs, the most popular of which began, "Sons of our Empire, marching out to war." INTER-CITY GOLF, Manchester and Liverpool in Opposition. The golf rivalry between Manchester and Liverpool was renewed on the Formby course, to-day, when the professional section of the two cities met in singles and foursomes. The latter were played in the morning and resulted in a victory for Liverpool by five games to two. It was arranged originally that 16 aside should take part, but owing to the non -arrival of Nield, of Fairfield, only seven matches could be played in the earlier part of the day.

There was some good play in the foursomes, the greatest interest, being centred in the meeting of Havers and Rimmer, and Compston and a llam. Liverpool pair showed brilliant form and returned the excellent best ball score of 67, winning by the comfortable margin of 3 and 2. Renouf and Bourne suffered defeat at the hands of Simpson and Davies, though they were only beaten on the last green. FOURSOMES. Liverpool.

Traveller Sent to Prison for Embezzlement. Sentence of one month's imprisonment with hard labour was imposed by the Manchester County justices, to-day, on Arthur Bootharn, of Hampton Place, Erskine-street, Hulme, who pleaded guilty to embezzling £3 from his employer. Mr. Kenneth Chambers, who prosecuted, said Booth am had been in the employ of Mr. Dean, a shop blind manufacturer, of Stretford Road, Manchester, for about three years.

He acfed as traveller and was allowed to collect accounts and give receipts. It was discovered that one customer had ordered goods to the value of £3 and had paid this money over to the accused, whQ had not accounted for it to his employer. This was not the result of an accident but was part of a system which the man had been carrying on for some time. Defalcations were first discovered last August, when £2O had not been accounted for. Bootham was given another chance hut later a further £24 was found to be missing.

Mr. Dean consented to keep the man on if he would repay the money, and this he agreed to do. Altogether he had refunded :217 10s. Continuing, Mr. Chambers mentioned that Bootham had been before the magistrates previously on a similar charge, and was then bound over.

Accused said he was 'willing to repay the money if given another chance, hut the chairman (Mr. R. Bagley) remarked that he had had sufficient chances liready. CLERK OF THE PEACE. The Reward of Goad Service as Deputy.

Gilligan opened the bowling on a good wicket and before a run had been scored he sent.
