The "Daily Telegraph" opened a fund, heading it with £500. Under the Mining Relief Act there is at once available £43,000. In addition tbexe is a credit of £15,000 from the Bulli accident fund, the beneficiaries of which are now ver- few. The Premier pointed out to tihe Mayor the existence of these amounts, which did not discountenance the desire of anyone to render financial aid.
