There were one or two in- stances which were very trying. Licensees, no doubt would not like to see any. lack of good conduct in their hoii'Sj*, and titoe Bench wm- pathised with them in their endeavours. They appeared that day under new conditions. The magistrates were placed now, owincr to t'hie new Act, only in an executive capacity. He hoped1 the [Bench would not have to interfere with any license, as they were all neighbours. They would like to see the back d'oons in'two or three cases closed. They were glali to find that in one case a. licensee was p-oimg to close, at an earlier hour. The Ohai-rman-aleo pointed out to the licensees1 that six-days' license would be cheaper so far as duties were concerned, and theyt would be pleased if t'hey wouM' take a siix- davs' license. Mr R.

HOLYHKAD LICENSING | SESSIONS.
HOLYHKAD LICENSING SESSIONS. THE HOURS OF SALE. BENCH AND FREE CHURCH COUNCIL AT ONE. The Licensing Sessions for the Holyhead division was held on Wednesday, the following magistrates being present: Chancellor Rich- ards (chairman), T. Foroer Evans, Esq., Hugh Edwards, Esq., J. R. Jones, Esq., John Lewis, Esq., Dr E. P. Edwards, W. R. Jones, Esq., Captain Kendall, J. N. Thomas, Esq., Robert Roberts, Esq. PETITION FOR EARLY CLOSING. The Rev Elias B. Jones, as chairman of the Holyhead Free Church Council, read a petition from that body, in regard to the shortening of ithe hours of salle. The petition was as fol- lows :—"On behalf of the Holyhead Free Church Council we mosi- humbly petition your worships by all means in your power to en- deavour to restrict the hours of sale of in- toxicating liquors in the town. We view with approval the action taken by the licensing justices in other parts of the country in regard to the curtailing of the hours of sale, and the ,beneficial results which have followed in the places where this course has been adopted. The action of the justices at the recent Valley ■Brewster Sessions in asking the licensees whether they would be willing to close at 9, instead of 10 p.m., is extremely pleasing to us, as representing the Nonconformist Churches of the town. In appearing thus be- fore you we would like it to be understood that we do not come in any way to dictate to your worships your line of action, and' we have every confidence that you will accept our petition in the same spirit as that in which it is offered. We merely wish to bring before your worships the strong -feeling of the Non- conformist Churches in this matter, and we have every confidence that the Bench will take that course of action which will ultimately re- suit in the social and moral betterment of the community." The petition was signed by th-e Ivev Elias B. Jones, chairman; and Mr C. R Jones, secretary. The following ministers appeared in support of tihe petition: Revs John Williams, Hvfrvd- le; David Lloyd, Hebron; William Griffith, New Tabernacle; R. R. Hughes, B.A., Kings- land; R. P. Williams, Tabernacle; Ll. N Tyack, English Wesleyan; Peter Jones, Welsh Wesleyan Circuit Superintendent; Gomer Evans, English Baptist; R. Eames Williams, Llaingoch Hugh Pany, Liverpool; with Mr W. S. Owen, Gwynfa. After the handing up of the petition, the Bench retired. The Chairman afterwards said' the Bench quite agreed with the sentiments tiierein expressed, and would try to carry them out as far as possible. The Rev Elias Jones expressed the thanks of the Nonconformists for the Bench s sympathy. LICENSEES' REFUSAL. The Bench then proceeded to deal with the applications for renewals of license*. The Chairman asked all those in the Holyhead dis- trict who were willing to close at 10 p.m. in- stead of 11 p.m. to come forward, but the only one who did so was Mr Henry Jones, of the Ship and Castle Inn, and this license was re- newled. Mr Fenna, representing the L. and N.-W. Railway Company, said that so far as the rail- way refreshment rooms "were concerned there was no objection to closing at 10 p.m. so far aa the town's inhabitants were concerned, but that passengers would have to be served. -This license was also renewed. As no others come forward to express their willingness to close at 10 o'clock, the Chairman said that the early closing would undoubtedly be a great benefit to the publicans. If they closed' at 10 instead of 11 they would, be able to have their proper rest, and if they were all ajgreed it could do no harm to anyone. If sthey closed! an hour earlier the cost of the license would be reduced by one-seventh. If L 1^fI}fiees w'ould not close of their own ac- eord' they would have to ask the Government; to close houses at 10 p.m. in Holyhead in the future. As the law was at present the Bench could not compel them to do this, but they could use their influence to this end. could use their influence to this end. The Rev Elias Jones said! the Counc'1 was aware that the Bench had no power to insist on early closing, but the petition was presented on early closing, but the petition was presented witii the object of inducing the magistrates to use their influence in this directon. The de- I putation was very grateful to their worships for their sympathetic consideration of the petition. The Chairman said the request was a very ^reasonable one, and as there were some who declined to accede to it there was a possibility o their being compelled in the future to do 00.. The renewals of the licenses were adjourned; to the Valley Petty Sessions. THE VALLEY LICENSES. There were ten applications for renewals which ihad bean adjourned from the. Valley Brewster Sessions. The licensees were asked severally if they would close at 9 instea,d of 10 p.m., but each one said, "No." The re- newals were granted. RAILWAY REFRESHMENT ROOMS. Mr Fenna, on behalf of the L. and, N.-W. Railway Company, applied' for a reduction in the quota payable to the compensation fund in respect of the railway refreshment rooms. The Act provided that an amount not less than one- third of the ordinary sum should be fixed by the magistrates. At other places the amount had been fixed at exactly one-third. It was not probable that any railway refreshment room licenses would be taken away in the future, and therefore they were not likelv to -benefit to any extent from tho compensation fund. The Bench fixed the amount at one-third' the ordinary rate. THE MAELOG LAKE HOTEL. Mr T. R. Evans said the Bench had objected to the license of the iMaelog Lake Hotel. Mr Dew had been engaged for the licensee, but was engaged at Menai Bridge. The Bench adjourned the case to the Valley Court. THE CHAIRMAN'S TRIBUTE. The Chairman said he wished to congratu- late tine ministers, both Church of England and Nonconformist of the town, upon the most satisfactory state of things at present. He had sat on the Bench there for over 32 years, and had n'efver seen a court like the one that day. There was not one case of drunkenness and this was a thing to be proud of. Twelve months ago the had passed some censure about ministers coming to court to oppose publie- houses. He was always of opinion that it was impossible to change drunkards into sober men by means of legislation, for it was religion only which changed the heart of a man. But now the revival had worked1 wonders amongst them, and' this was mainly due to the energetic work performed by the ministers of the town. Some of the ministers were angry with mm, twelve months ago on account of the remarks he made, but they were still friend's. Chan- cellor Richards then referred to the kindness shown .him by the Rev Elias B. Jones on the very day and after he had passed the severe strictures upon those who had come to object to the granting of licenses. He paid Mr Jones the compliment that he considered he was a very good man. Hie hoped the revival would go on, and that many more drunkards would be reclaim-ed. The Chairman's remarks were made with very deep feeling, and created a profound im- pression upon all in the court.

Deep fleeoes are in fair request, but fine short wools are very dragging. Skin. wools move off readily at late rates. BRADFORD, Thursday.—The condition of 1'00 market is still one of quiet waiting, never- theless a. good many topmakers are standing aside and declining to sell. Merinoes have scarcely shown any signs of weakness, and there is little more doing in fine crosshreds, but. in strong descriptions values are still weak. Forties, 12 £ d; sixties, 2s Nd. There is no new business in tine export yarn trade. HAY AND STRAW.
