BAA U OK CCLJNTY COURT., (MONDAY. — Before liis Honour Sir Horatio Lloyd. SALVAGE CLAIIvL—Mr Huw Rowland, j who appeared for the ownexs of the cargo of a sailing vessel named the ".Rival," made an application respecting two salvage claims which were brought against the vessel named and the owners of cargo. He stated that the "Rival" was in distress off the port of Am- lwch when the steamer "Voltaic'' came and took her in tow and brought her to Beau- maris, and in respect of such service the owners of the steamer claimed salvage. After a short lapse of time the steamer "Penrhyn" came up to the "Riv: and towed her to Port Penrhyn at ,r, and for that ser- vice the owners of the "Penrhyn* again claimed salvage. Mr Rowland maintained that both actions must obviously overlap, and so he applied, as a matter of convenience to the court, that both claims, bo heard together when they would become before his Honour at the next court. Messrs Hughegand iPritchard represented the owners of the "Voltaicf and Mr Thornton Jones the own- ers of the "Penrhyn."—The latter gentle- man said his clients did not admit any ser- vices by anyone to the "[Rival" except by themselves; and so they did not want to be embarrassed by the joint hearing of the oases, unless his Honour considered that such a course .would re preferable.—His Hon- our acceded to Mr Rowland's application, but added that if in the course of hearing he found that the joint hearing was pre- judicial to any of the claimants, then the cases would 'be heard sinriy. CLAIM FOR GOODS.—J. H. Roberts, Oaeilwyngrydd, claimed the sum of £7 7s from William Hughes, quarryman, Festiniog, late of Bethel, for goods supplied.—Mr Twigge Ellis appeared for plaintiff, and Mr D. G. Davies for defendant. — The defence was, that a cart which plaintiff had bought for defendant was included in the bid, where- as plaintiff had seised it during defendant's absence in America.—Judgment for plaintiff for £3 79 3d. A CASE OF TREPAiSiS. —J an e Hughes, iGlan'rafon, Llans-uiwrn, brought an action against Hugh Hughes, schoolmaster, Llan- ddeiniolen, and D. Parry, senior, Coedyparc, Si ear Betliesda, for damages .estimated at £50 for puliling down a house the property of plaintiff, situated at Penrhosgarnedd.— Mr Thornton Jones, appeared for plaintiff, Mr fLloyd Carter. Carnarvon, for Hughes, and MirD. G. Davies. Bethesda-, for Parry.— Mr Jones said that the defendant Hughes took in his head that he had a right to pull down a oeTtain bouse « Penrhosgarne-id, which was the property of plaintiff. The parties are relatives. It was contended as a reason for so doing, that the place was only a shed, and not a house, and that under an order from the Ogwen District Council it was pulled down and privies built on the site. This was wrong, as the building was not simpiy a shed but a house, although perhaps it needed a little repairing. — Mrs Jane 'Hughes, the plaintiff, said the house in ques- tion was left her by her grandfather, she valued the house at £25, and it was an or- dinary workman's dwelling. She never gave 'Hugh Hughes nor her brother her consent to pull the house down. After she came to understand that they had demolished the house, she placed the matter in the hands of Mr Thornton Jones..She did not receive any notice from the authorities respecting this house.—Oro^-examined by Mr Carter Hughes was a cousin of liers. She never had had a penny rent for the house, her mother received it. It was a one-room house, a.nd had been tenanted, and large families brought up in it. She never toid anyone that the property was too worthless for her to bother with.—At the close of the cross-examination, the registrar made a re- mark that he had suggested to the solicitors on both sides a means of arriving at an amic- atble settlement to the effect that there should be nominal da.ma.ges, and after some consulta- tion the parties signified their intention of accepting the suggestion and his Honour gave judgment for plaintiff for £3 damages with costs as upon £21; the defendant. to buy the property on the valuation of Mr J. Pritchard, ainTtlunetr, 1Llltt -pa.v valuer's fee. IMPORTANT TO TAILORS: A TEST 0A.SE.—'William 'Morgan, journeyman tailor, Bangor, brought an action aqainst Donald Cameron, taillor a.nd draper, Bangor, for the sum of Is 8d, due a,t balance for making of a coat. — Mr R' R. Dew, instructed by the secretary of the Bangor Tailor's Union, ap- peared for the plaintiff, Mr Cameron de- fending his own case.—'Mir Dew in his open- ing statement said this was a test case, and was brought to court for his Honour's decision Oil the point of payment for extras. Plaintiff, he said, was a coat hand employed by de- fendant at a remuneration as agreed upon by the Bangor Tailor's "Log, from which, it appears he was to receive for a hand-made coat the sum of 9s 6cl without the extras. With regard to the garment in dispute there was a number of extras. The first of these was, that it was an extra-sized coat. A gentleman was measured for the coat, and his measurement was 4inches. The sum named for making a ooat is for one measuring 42 inches. The ticket given plaintiff with the c,Y:J,.t said it was to be machined. In re- gard to machine-made garments there was a deduction to be made, and that the deduc- tion in this instance amounted to Is 3d. But there was also to be added to the price for making the ooat the extra on account of the Garment being double-breasted lOd, for <mak- ing a ticket-pockef. one hour and half 7|d, one hour and half for the outside breast 7^d, building shoulders, one hour 5d, making 2s 6d for extras. Then again for extra pockets 2bd. and the breast pocket 2^d, total Is 8d, which brings the amount to 12s 2-^d. The plaintiff only received 103 61?d for the work, and he now claimed the difference Is 8d. He, however, understood that Mr Cameron had paid lOd into court, and lOd still re- mained unpaid.—Mr Cameron said that this case was purely a test one. He thought he was over-charged, and certainly it was not fair ror just to charge half an inch as inch. The log did' not provide for half inches. No doubt this coat was an extra one, and he was wiling to pay the extra, but surely the em- ployer who provided the machine should have for" its use gfd of the sum claimed by the workmen. He assured his Honour that he was on the best of terms with his men.— Evidence wad given on behalf of the plaintiff, by Hugh Roberts, tailor W. Da.rgie, draper, Bangor, and for the defence by Andrew Hughes, foreman cutter at defendants estab- lishment.—After a lengthy hearing his Hon- our gave judgment for plaintiff for Is 5 £ d, deducting only the half inch, each side to pay its own costs.—Mr Cameron said he was sorry to have taken .-o much of the time of the "court with the C,13e, when his Honour remarked that he was very glad to see a c^se that had taken so much time settfied so amicably, and taken in such good spirit by both sides. CLAIM FOR LOSS OF GOODS.—Ben- jamin Ackerman, 189, Carnarvon-road, Bangor, claimed th-si of £13 19s 5d from the London and iNorth-Wesbern Railway Co., for lees, through the negHgenoa of the de- fendant company by miscarriage and non- delivery of certain goedts consigned to the plaintiff from S. Foilman, Manchester, on the 23rd July last,—Mr S. R. Dew a.p- peared for plaintiff, <"ml Mr Fenna repre- sented! the railway company.—A jury was sworn to hear the case.—Mr Fenma, Jpefore proceeding with the case, said that the de- fendants admired their liability to the ex- tent of £10 9s 5d, the value of the gooda, and contended thai; th'e question of demagog was one which tdiouldl be dealt with by his honour.—Mir Dew said tlie claim was for less caused through the company's negligence in CCTivetvinsr goods which plaintiff 'had' bought from Mr Fellman, of Manchester. The goods were ordered in July, and were delivered to defendants on the 23rd of that month for I conveyan.ee to plaintiff, who had, ordered j tliem especially at the request of his cus- tomeis. It was not until the» beginning off October that anything was heard of these • goods.—The phintiif, in corroborating the opening sltaitemenit, .said he was a travelling draper, and his profits on has sales amounted to between. 6s aaid 7s in the £ .—Mr Feuiia then addressed the jury, and on the point- of law showed that plaintiff could not claim compensation for loss of profits or market from a. TSiilway company. The company, he again said, admitted their liability to the extent; of £ 10 9s 5d, and further to a, small suan for ouit-o'f-pooket expenses plaintiff' mighlti have paid whale searching for the missing goods.—"After li-is Honour led summed up true case, the jury Fedred, amd after a shone consultation, decided in favour of plaintiff for £10 9s 5d value of tho goods, acid 10s, the sum offered by the railway company, as com- P'Onfirition, without cos-;s. WRONGFUL DETENTION. — Wilhei- mina Williams, Bryngclon, near Bangor, aelmilaidslratrtix of the la'te John Wikiams, of 'tip the same place, btPought all action agannafc J. 0. Williams, Bier sOepeon, iGoetre BCKiD, Bangor, for the sum of- £ 14 14s 6d for the wrongful detctn'tiion of oertaira arrieles bos longing to her -as administratrix. Also, she claimed Is 5d, the funeral expenses of Ann Williams, die^en,d|anitri3 glrairjcllmdilher, and 19s 6d' for hay supplied to the said Ann Williams.—Mr W. Huw Rowland appeared for plaintiff, and M'r S. R. Dew for defen- dant. -It appears that John Williams, who was a widower, atnd had children, married plaintiff some few years before his death. Before the marriage he gavo, ceriain articles of furniture to his son, J. O. Williams and his grandmother, and th-eeo were now claimed as parti of the estate of John Williams, the f2It,her.Afbe.r hearing a number of witnesses, hia Honour non-suited plaintiff on tho claim for wrongful detention, and gave judgment in her favour for the value of the hay and funeral expenses, viz., £3 lis, to be paid by instalments.

CON WAY UOUETY OOUItT. This court was held on Thureday, before his Honour Judge. Sir Horatio Lloyd. AN AMUSING OXSE FROM COLWYN BAY.—Miss E. A. Wells, Colwyn Bay, sued Mrs Horton for tho sum of £20 odd.—Mr F. Nunn, for the plaintiff, sa.id that his client- let her house furnished' to the defendant, Mis Horton for a team of 16 months. The claim was owing to the unfair rise of plaintiff's pro- perty by the defendant, her family, and sub- tenants." That rise, it was contended, was far beyond what could be described as reason- able use and wear and tear.—.Th.a pl.a.i.n.ti.iT then proceeded to give evidence as to -exten- sive damage to the dining-room carpet acid the furniture. The carpet looked as if dogs had had greasy bones all over at. She did not know until afterwards that the dog slept tihere (laughter). 'She had to buy two new carpets, aim made an inventory of the things (produced). According to the inventory, a. number cf tilings wera missing, and she had to replace them at £10 expenditure. The mangle was much damaged.—His Hon- our The mangle ought to last for ever (laughter).—-Crass-examined by Mr Porter The furniture waa not of a jerry rickety char- acter, she was; not aware that the chairs in the dining-room were so rickety that a, lady fell down when she -sat on it.—For the de- fence, Mrs Horton stated that it cost; her io to repair the furniture., which was particularly jerry (laughter); it was very ugly and rick- ety. The bedlroom carpets were. so thread- bane that she had. to get some oilcloth to cover it. When plaintiff called to see wit- ness, she sild how nice the house' looked, because witness -had! metaan'orphiosed it so (laughter). It would have spoiled her wine. to put in into the glasses; there (laughter). She was sure the chairs were eighty years old, the pattern was all gone (hmght,er).- Miss Horton, who satid her mother occupied a house at Southporb, gave corroborative evi- denuo.—His Honour thought the plaintiff's witnesses! had exaggerated matters: somewhat. One would think thoolJ people lived on grease —(laughter)—or burnt candles as he had seen workmen do (laughter). Twenty pounds was mora than plaintiff was entitled to. He should give judgment for £ 10. THE LAND DISPUTE AT ROEWEN.— Colonel Gouirh (Caerhim Estate) and) another brought an action for trespass against Edwin Goulding (Private Hotel, Mandudno) and' Mrs Goulding.—M[r Bryn Rpbeircs, M.P. (tn- strucbed by Messrs Carter, Vincent, and Dou- glas Jones, Bangor), appeared for the plain- tiffs Mr Walter Russell ,(ir.0brudtbd by Messrs Pugh and Bone, Llandudno) reprtv senting the defendants.—Mr Bryn Roberts, in his opening, said that the action, affected rhe ownership of a small piece of land at Roewen, near Conway, which was oaclcsed by the tenant of the Caerhuiii Estate in March, 1359. Up to that time it was a strip of land between the Caerhun property and the high road. The Glyn. Estate, which was the adjoining property, was sold in 1872 to the .late Mr Joseph 'Evans, Haydock; and on the sale plan the piece of land in question was shown to belong, to the Caerhun, Estate. In 1889, the Glyn prcperty was sold to Mr Joseph Parry, and by Parry to Mr Gutfcridge, Liverpool, at the time of the alleged trespass, and Mr Guttridge sold it tb Mr Goulding, also had taken all the responsibility. But evidently Mr Parry was, doubtful as to whether he owned the property, because he stipulated that there should be an agreement signed by Mr Guttridge indemnifying him from any claim in respeet of having' included this in the conveyance. As far as his clients could see, the defendants had no title what- ever to the land which appeared to have, been nominally included in the conveyance.—The case was resumed on Saturday. After a num- ber of witnesses had been. examined, his Honour, in giving judgment, said he had viewed the spot that imornin-g, and had been very much influenced by the amount cf evi- dence for tihe plaintiff cm Thursday, showing distinct acts of ownership, whereas the defen- dants could sliofw (practically no real act of ownership. Ha jgrantted the injunction against trespass1, and assessed! the damages fcr trespasis at £ 55. Castes on the higher scale were allowed.

GREAT LIBERAL MEETXINU .• AT BAN GOB.. MJISSR-S T. g. ELLIS, M.P., AXD LLOYD-GEORGE^ M,P., ON HOME RULE AjlL ROiJND. In .spito of the fearful weather tliaiD piet- ra-iled on Tuesday night. last, the' Penrhyn Hüll, Bangor, was crowded w its utmost capacity with an entiiusiast'Ic audience gathered together to hear the member of Parliament for the Carnarvon boroughs giv- ing an account of his stewardship, and also to hear the Chief Liberal Whip, speaking. Mr L. D. Jones', Catch, took the chair promptly ajti seven o'clock. He said he was glad to be able to be present at the meet- ing on such an important tlime as the present. Of course their meeting at Bangor would nol, settle the difficulties facing: the country, but it would go a litd-e way in that direction. Referring to the balntlesi between .capital aaid labour he thought it was a very hopaful sign to see -The Government aeiling: the part oi an intermediary. As ItOi the educatioai ques- tion all people could noib see eye to eye, but there was one thing quite clear and that was that, there were peopjewho in that connec- tion made eporlj of religion and shamed edu- cation. Speaking om. tho Home' Rule ques- tion, he remarked that we already possessed quite enough and' perhaps too many corpcrar trons, public bodli-es, coimicils, and so on, but. wihallJ W3 really required was something to bind the whole together (applause). Dr Emyr Price moved "That this meeting of Liberals begs to acknowledge with grati- tude phe groat services ren'deaed by Mr Lloyd-George to the. country during the last session of Parliament, notably his able ap- podJiaon to the Agricultural Raiting Bill, and to place on record its unbounded confidence in him as representative, -of these boroughs." He was glad to see thei two friends present, and working together so harmoniously..Mr George had gone on from streugeh to strength from the first time that he was elected until the present day (applause). He not only served the Carnairvlom ■boroughs well „aiadi faithfully, but the whole of Wales. In fact., everybody in Great Britain now admitted the power and ability of Lloyd-Gecrge, the Welsh member. Mr EELs and Mr George had worked well indeed for their fabherland —Mr George more in public, perhaps, but- Mr Ellis no less than liim, altliough in pri- vate.'—and the pair deserved well of their countrymen (loud applause). Perhaps their countrymen did not properly appreciate their work in the House of Commons. David, of the Carnarvon boroughs, met a gLa;n.it on the floorolf the House of Commons last session and struck him on his brow and that the giant had1 never got up again (applause). The Rev S. R. Jenkins seconded the re- soliatfei. Ini the counsel of a powerful speech, he remarked that the Kink Radical- ism of to-day would be the respectable Liber- alism of to-morrow the heterodoxy elf to-day would be-, the orthodoxy cf to-morrow. They had no better exponent, of Liberalism than Mr Lloyd-George, and modern Liberalism was nothing but old1 Liberalism tinged with righteousness (applause). Hinting, in pas- sing, at foreign matters, he remarked I'hat. tihere was too great a tendency to look upon the earth as the Englishman's and the fui- ness thereof, and future generations, read- ing the history of the past and present, of our foreign policy will find plenty therein to be ashamed of. Moral law had quite as mupli to do with nations as with individuals. They were told to-day that when the claims of England and the claims cf humanity clashed the claims of*human.ity must: go to the wall. Referring to the last election, ho re- marked than although it had gone against the parry of progress they knew that the pendulum would swing back, and then Mr Lloyd-George would take no mean part in asserting the rights of Wales (applause). The motion was carried unanimously and with grøait enthusiasm. Mr Lloyd-George, M.P., who was cordially received, paid This being the first time I have appeared before you since the last general election, you will wanlfc to know what we have been dioitig in Parliament. Yon know that great things were promised ait the last- general election by the party which is now in power. Well, to begifn with, we had a nice little fuirplusi of S5,000,000 a.b our dis- posal. and you will be pleased to know tkot we kst no time in applying a good slice of it in replenishing the exhausted exchequem of our distressed: aristocracy (laughter)._ I re- gret to observe from reports which have ap- peared in the papers during the last fort- night that attempts have been made to limit the scope of our mercies. It appears that a few lords and baronets claimed OUT-DOOR RELIEiE IN RESPECT TO THEIR PARKS. An uncourtly surveyor of taxes seems to have thought that the possession, of an oni| mental park well stocked with deer and gaial constituted1 no plea for placing its possessor on the pauper's list. How paltry (laughter). Fortunately, the case had to come before a bench of magistrates, mera who had parks of their own in respect cf whiieh they would be entitled to relief; consequently they, in adjudicating upon the. master, would add a sympathetic mind to that rigid impartiality for which they are so notorious, and tr.afa captious Government official, 'with his miser- able abjections, was soon disposed of (laughter). This saves the Government the painful necessity of bringing in a bill next year ta make it perfectly clear that their gifh was intended for the assistance of destitute park-owners (laughter). You will be pleased to know that the Ministers who were the promoters, of this! measure will not suffer by their beneficence. In fact, I re- joice to tell you they made a good thing out of it. Their estates will, I have calculated, beciafit by the substantial sum of £60,000 a year. The quality of the Agricultural Rating Bill is like unto that of mercy, "jib blasseth lulm that gives and him that takes" (laughter). The only party thai; it does not bless is him that pays, but you cannot shower blessings on everybody in the course of a single session. People must be reasonable; and, after all, the first charge upon the bles- sings cf the earth, as you know, belongs to the landlords (laughter). Having thus lightened these grievous. burdens which threatened to press down the magnificent rent rolls of Britain, we turned our attention ta the YOUNGER »SO'N'S OP OUR GREAT FAMILIES. These hard ttmes it is very difficult for their parents to allot to them the portion which they merit. So we did the bed we could for them out of our surplusl;, we built a few battleships. They cost a few millions, and it is true that the only effect, so far, has been that the French have decided to spetod another £8,000,000 on their navy, in order to .compete with us. But that isi where our foresight comes in. You will perceive that in a few years we shall have to spend another £10,000,000 or £20,000,000 again, so that as these younger sons have a tendency to multi- ply comfortable berths will be provided for them, and it need net be said that, iu Britain at any rate, men with blue blood in their veins have been reduced to the. de- grading necessity of baring to work for their living (laughter). We also- found out another source of leakage in our agricultural rack rents, and we promptly bunged that up. Thev were bringing CANADIAN CATTLE- OVER TO OUR MARKETS. This reduced the British farmers' capacity to pay high rents, so we promptly Œlu!t, aiD. end ito" so "mischievous a. practice. Malevolent persons will suggest that ait lis rather incon- sistent on our part to exclude colonial goods from the market at the very moment when we are bragging so loudly about Imperial Federation, and above all of our Imperial Zollverein. But, then, that is a superficial view of the matter. When Canadian, farmers appreciate the fact that by being shut out of ouT markets they are sharing with us the ineffable honour of contributing to the main- tenance cf cur ancient nobility, their affec- tion for the old country will be stronger thaw ,1., I" ;r » f ever (laughter). THE PARSONS al-o sent the piate round, and we had fully intended giving them something handsome, but unhappily they fell out among themselves as to the number of pockets die money was I to pass through before it reached the offer- tory, and our charitable liaitentions were thus frustrated (laughter). Otnily tempoiarii}, however, for next year we hope to more than make up for the disappointment the clergy- man may have felt at finding empty the col- lection hag which -was expected to return full (laughtea). I oughlb to explain, .perhaps, aJ- though I hardly think ii necessary—it is too insignifican/ti a point—.that we have done no- thing for the worktoig classes, except perhaps Ito make meat dearer; but you cannot attend to everybody at once, and common politeness demands that they should give way to their social superior's (.aughter). The workman is taught to be humble and lowly to all his bet- ters, and1 he has no right to dbtrude his or- ders until they have been first served. Now, is not that a record, to boast c'f ? I cam assure you that I never came before my constituents with a greater sense of pride and! satisfaction with the work accomplished. But all jesting apart, and one great feature cf the last session was the acknowledged breakdown, of the Par- liamentary system. The Government had every possible advantage in carrying their wotrk through. They had the greatest Parlia- mentary majority of the century. They had the predominant partner with them. They had London with them solid, and, as you know, the metropolis wields a political in- fluence that (is quite out of proportion to the number of its mem be.r&. For the first time, the privileged classes and the working classes seemed to be in accord in their support cf the Administration of the day. There was plenty of hard work; we had more all-night sittings, closures, violent curtailment of the length of the debates than, in any previous Parliament. In spite of all, it ended in a. HUMILLATING COLLAPSE (applause). How do you account for it? Candour compels me to admit that the un- businees-like habits of Mr Balfour are not a sufficient explanation. The real reascci is that the Imperial Parliament ta utterly in- adequate to cope with its work (applause). Mr Gladstone pointed that out ten years ago, and he has ever since been -endeavouring to convince the people of England of the truth, of that prom critical. Now, their chosen Min- isters are compelled to acknowledge it. Mr Balfour has repeatedly stated that it is hia firm conviction that the House of Commons can only be expected to pass one bill per ses- sion. When the question to b& dealt with is a large and complicated one, then Parliament can only deal with one section of it in one scission that is the new order of things. Now; this is a very serious condition of mat- ters for the Liberal pairty they have a large programme to carry out. There has been a good deal said in derogation of the New- castle programme, but no genuine Liberal! would 'wish to withdraw one item of it from the Liberal policy (hear, hear). There are many Liberals who wish to add to it. But if the Imperial Parliament is too slow to suit the Tory pace in reform, how is it going to get through all the work which the Liberal party 'has cutou b for it? WHAT IS THE REMEDY? Judging by the action of the Cabinet during the Last -session, and by the speeches of Min- isters duiing the recess, the leadens of xihe Tory party have evidently come to 'the con- elusion that the only possible remedy lies in the restriction of freedom of debaite. Within the lasib fifteen years we have had more changes iU1 this direction than, during the previous two centuries. There are two ways in which discussion MT. the House of Com- mons can ba limited. The first is the one introduced by Mr Gladstone—(cheers)—and is known as the Closure. I do not wish to say anything against (this form of restriction, but the foam of restriction which I thinik is dangerous to free institutiona is what is known as the "GAG" AXD GUILLOTINE (hear, hear). What do these mean? They mean that if the Administration think that a bill has been long enough before the House they have the power, by means of their mar- jnrity in Parliament, to withdraw certain •porttaans of it absolutely tfmm, discussioni. Members cf Parliament a.re noft to be allowed to make ci^ioism^, iktwte-veT relevant, or move amendments, however germane, except during the pleasure of Her Majesty's Admin- istration. Now, if any reasons are wanted against such a novel and1 dangerous inroads upon the integrity of our insitdtxitionsi, as not being a proper remedy for the 'block of busi- ness in Parliament, I would (give two or three very shortly. The first is that the worse a. bill is the mürø eager will the Government and i/ts supporters be to save i.t from exposure and Parliamentary debate. STATE INTERFEREN CE. Fornieiiiy all parties ajlike agreed that the less 'the law interfered the better it would be for the health and growth of the community. Now we have recognised that it is essential for the protection of the great mass of the people that the law should be called in to guard them on almost every point of their lives. You legislate upon almost everything, and there is no distinction 'between the two parties in this respect. They both meddle. The only difference lies in how they shall meddle, when they shall meddle, and with what they ace going to meddle (laughter). From the milk you buy first thing in the morning to the toddy some of you may drink last thing at night, the law inspects and ex- amines every article of food. It prescribes dimensions and proportions for very dwelling- house, it enters the factory and workshop. It even pursues a man with its guardianship beyond the portals of the tomb (laughter). When ftegislation affects so many vital in- terests, there is necessarily a much deeper interest taken by the community in every detail of the measure proposed. That ha-s its effect in stimulating a greater amount Of vigilance and activity on the part of in- dividual members. And here I come to the point wherein you ought to find a remedy. The fact that vou have FOUR SEPARATE NATIONALITIES in this kingdom has complicated the work of Parliament infinitely. National character moulds hopes and thought and social condi- tion, and the result is that, when legislation comes to deat so nearly with the life of the people, YOUI have in the United Kingdom f 'V.r separate and distinct demands from the different nationalities which constitute it. This is not a mere matter of sentiment. I know there are some people who detest senti- ment. They'are usually those who squander so much sentiment upon themselves that they have nothing left for country or for cause (ap- plause). I am giving them nationalism from the strictly practical point of view. I have wrung out of it every taint of emotion, and I offer to them, as it were, the desiccated powder of patriotism as a dose (laughter). I have searched out carefully the legislation of the last twenty years, and I find that more than two-thiids of the laws passed during that period, which have occupied any time in the House, are measures dealing with the separate interests of these different nationali- ties. What is still more, in reckoning up the time consumed in Parliament by different Speeches, I Wound that more than three- fourths of the time of Parliament has been taken up in debating questions which affect- ed only a part of the United Kingdom. And Unionist Parliaments have been the greatest suffer errs in this respect. Who was it that said you cannot drive six coaches through Temple Bar? The Liberal pa'rty attempted during the last Parliament to drive thirty (laughter). They cannot do it, but they ea. open up new and more direct avenues to relieve the traffic at the Bar (applause). Im- perial Parliament now legislates upon local questions without local knowledge, and thus, like every other bungler, by doing its work baddy increases instead of decreases the vo- lume of work. It regulates everything, from the affairs of 400,000,000 of the Queen's sub- jects in our Indian Empire to the fixing up of piers in the Menai Straits, and I fear it does both equally well (laughter). The people >.0"<>" expect reform from the Legislature, and at the end oi each Parliament they find that their woisi grievances are barely touched. You may depend on it, that W OPJKiNiU-CLiA&>i2S of this country >vm not tolerate the present system much Ungcr. IEvery hour of delay meanp surftafing and increased- destitution for thousands üi them. They have, on the one hand, cue Tory scheme for transferrinw the power of Parliament to the Cabinet. On the other, they have Air Keir Hardies pro- pu-sa_s for a so-cia. revolution. The progres- sive party or cms country offer the more mo- derate,^ out I venture to think, the more lationa-i alternative of a measure of all-round delegation and devolution, which will enable a their grievances to be dealt with in rea- sonable time (applause). The best managed- concern is that which is abreast with 'its work. Parliament, which is the pride of the greatest commerclai community in the world, is at the very least thirty years in arrears. I repeat the present system of things cannot long endure. The contrast is too acute be- tween the wealth and luxury of one class and; the destitution and degradation of the other. One man works haid, has to recruit his ex- hausted strength in cramped quarters, bieatiiing a vitiated atmosphere. Another, who does nothing, has allotted to him miles of breathing ground d. for himself, walled up high, so that he need not ishare its Vitalising properties with those who have helped to create his riciies. One man la- bouis, and yet starves another man lounges, and still he feasts. One set of men strive hard all their days in the vineyard, and yet amid the plenty and profusion which they themselves have helped to produce, sink un- honuured into a pauper's grave. Another set of men enter into the precincts of the vineyard only to partake of its most luscious fruit, and they jive and die amid the pomp and prodigdity of millionaires. This can- hot go on for ever. They may use their wealth to corrupt the manhood of the men who have gathered it; they may use their powor to intimidate those they cannot bribe; they may strike down with the keen edge of CAiumiiy a man raised from amongst the people to proclaim their wrongs on the house- tops, but as surely as justice and mercy are eternal attributes in the government of the world, that system which macadamises the road to luxury far the few out of the hearts of the many is doomed; and I, for one, ad- vocate so strongly this scheme of devoluticn- because I beneve it is the surest method of expediting that happy day (:oud a,pplause).- When Mr Luoyd-George uttered the sentence at the dose of his speech, "They may strike down with the keen edge of calumny," &c., there was a tremendous outburst of cheering, which was renewed again and again with great fervour. Mr Thomas Ellis, M.P., who followed Mr Lloyd-George, commented upon the fact that the Unionist G-overnmejjit had been unable to pass even one of those heroic measures promised by them when they attained power. Their programme and its realisation were- most meagre as compan-ed with what was in- troduced and carried by the Liberal riartv. As regarded TVales, nothing was being done towards the construction of those light rail- ways so necessary for the development of the remote parts of the Principaiitv. As re- garded the Conciliation Act, he trusted that in the case of the London and North-Wes- tern Railway Company it would be in speeelv application. In connection with the Pexrrhvii quarrymen, he hoped everything would be done by the Board of Trade to bring to a termination that strike, which might causa much misery in the district. It was said that the next session was to be quiet and peaceable, but 'Governments proposed and nations disposed. As to Home Rule, he by no means agreed with the statement that it was dead. The floodgates opened bv Air Gladstone had not yet been closed. Wa.les. as regarded educational matters, enjoyed Home Rule, but it, like Soot-and, would de- mand more, because the two countries were making such a sptendid use of that they a!- # ready enjoyed; and Ireland would contlnua to clamour more loudly for Home Rule, be- cause she had not yet got it. Unionism in Ireland was now iti. a. sora n' the disclosures in the Land Commission, which shewed that she had been sorely overtaxed tOo the National Exchequer. These disclosures had led to an unionism to denounce such ft iniquity, and to agitate for a change in the financial administration of the country. Thin wound lead to a re-arrangement not' only of national finance, but also to a re-arrangement of national government, so tha.t-bpfo.re the close of the century there might be estab- lished Sn every baronv and countv a C .mitr Gouncil which would 'abolish the "grand jurv system, and that network of officialism wirch enveloped Dublin Castle, and so make the country self-governing, contended, and hope- ful (cheers). The proceedings eosed with, a vote of thanks to the speakers, -proposed by Princi- pa.l Price, amd seconded by Mr T. J. Wil- liams.

THE" JA Ja" COLLISION. JUDGMENT. Judging was giveai in this case en. F,ridav. The court found, in answer to fcha quest-ons of the Board of Trade, that the "Prince Ja Ja" did, but the Wieklow'' did not, comply with araicle 13 of the regulations for preventing collisiansi at seta. Neither vessel complied with article 18 of the said regulations, as oiei'tiheT reversed until tco late to avert the collision. The court was strongly of opinion, comisddealing the aliaraotea" of ilie navigation of the Crosby Channel during the. prevailing dense fog, that both vessels ougha to have been brought to an anchor. Tha fog was_ so dense that there was nothing to guide eithtir vessel as to wiliich sido of the> channel she was navSigatiing. !fhe vessel were approaching each othar during a dens^ fog, consequently there was nothing rolia-bla tn indicate-their relative positions. Articles 15 and 16 did mot therefore apply, nor did article 22, for similar reasons. Naither tlva "Wicklow" nor the "Prhrpe .J3I Ja" was navigated with proper or seaimanlike care, inasmuch as both vessels were being navi- gated in. the Crosby Channel during a d fog, instead of being brought to an ancher. The material damage, sustained by the "Wick- low was caused by the wrongful acts and default of the masters of the ''Wicklow" and "Prince Ja Ja." The death, of Charles O'Brien waa due to the injuries caused by his being jammed in the bend of the bow- plate, which waa forced in and doubled up by the force of the collision. Every effort to assist him was promptly made by those ('.11 board. The. COiUITt found the masters of the- "Wicldow" and the "Prince Ja Ja" both in. default, and suspended the certificate cf the master of the, ''Wicklow'" far three months. The matster of the. "Prince Ja Ja" only held a Mersey pilüttage certificate, with which 'that court had no power to dea.l, otherwise thei court would have suspended it. The court recommended the Board of Trade to con- sider the propriety of forwarding the parti- culars of tlie case to the Mersey I>0"C.kfs aji($ Harbour Bcotd., who issued tlie latter certi- ficate.—On th e apq>lieait £ on of Mr Horrid TC, the court granted' Captain Conlin, 0f the "WicldoW," 'a mlaihafs certificate for tlm period of his suspension.
