Bangor Bankruptcy Court. CASES FROM COLWYN BAY, PENMAEN- MAWR, AND LLANDUDNO. At this Court, on Thursday, before Mr Regis- trar Glynne Jones, Mr Tobias ('assistant official receiver) publicly questioned Sarah Ann Streete, trading as S. A. DockIiay, at Colwyn Bay, as a fishmonger, touching the causes of her bank- ruptcy. Her gross liabilities were return.ed at £393, of whidh C380 was expected to rank, with a defi- ciency of ^290. Mrs Streete attributed her failure to deprecia- i tion of stock, illnesis of herself, having to leave. a shop in a central position for a position in a r si die street, and having no. capital. The Official Receiver observed that the busi- ness was started eleven years ago by debtor's first husband, Mr Rhodes, Doekray, and after his death debtor carried on the business, and subse- quently married; George Streete, who had since assisted in carrying on the business. The stock-in-trade had he-fin disposed of for £ 2 7s. 6d. Replying to Mr Tobias, the debtor said she paid finto the bank in 1904 £ 2,060, in 1905 _/1,900 odd, and in 1906 r700 odd; but things went worse after that. The examination was closed. A PENMAENMAWR BANKRUPT. John Daly, of "The Stores," Penmaenmawr, beer, wine, and spirit dealer, submitted a state- ment ishowing gross liabilities amounting to £38" of which £349 was expected to rank, and a de- ficiency of C145- Daly stated the causes of his failure to be in- experience in the trade and two- months' illness. Daly lhtad been twenty-seven years in the Army, latterly as sergeant-instructor of a Volunteer Battalion, and retired on the list March, 1906, with the rank of siergeant-major and a pension of 31s. 2d. a day. He. took over the business in February. 1906, with a capital of between £30 and £4°, and furnitune estimated at about 6;0. The examination was closed. BANKRUPTCY OF A LLANDUDNO COACHBUILDER. George Arthur Harrison, coachbuilder and lodging-house keeper, Lland'udno, with gross LiJabiliJhes amounting to ;C127 and a deficiency of £64, said he failed because he had to pay bor. rowed money at high interest, and found himself unable to let apartments. He is thirty-eight years of age, and has had considerable dealings with momiey-lenders, with the usual result. Replying to Mr. Tobias, the bankrupt humbly admitted that he had "denied himself" (made false isitatemenis) to some, of the maneylenders with, whom he had dealt, and that it was very wicked to, do such a thing and expressed a fer- vent wish that he could pay them all back every penny. The examination was closed.

I Geirionydd District Council. PEXMACHXO AND DOLWYDDELEN SCHOOLS. The monthly meeting of the Geirionydd Coun- cil was held on Tuesday, ithe Rev Jcljn Gower presiding. There were also present Mr Mathew Roberts, Capel Curig (Vice-Chairman) Messrs Ellis Pierce and O. E. Parry (Dolwyddelen), E. W. Roberts (Cwm), J. Lloyd Morris and Edward Roberts (Penmachno), Thomas Hughes (Maen- ani, R. T. Ellis (Trefriw) with the Clerk, Mr R. R. Owen, and the Surveyor, Mr R. H. Wil- lianl's. SPECIAL MEETINGS. Mr J. Lloyd Morris, referring to a paragraph, in the minutes to the effect that tenders had been advertised for, and would be considered at a special meeting on Tuesday next, said it was a great hardship to members who came a long distance to' have to attend again next Tuesday. Why could theise not have been dome that day? It meant a deal of their time and money. Several other members agreed. 0 The Clerk said the matter rested with '.them, and it was impassible to consider the tenders sooner, as it would iiiot give sufficient time for the advertisement to appear. Mr 'Morris said he did not find fault with any- one, but if such things! could be avoided it would be beneficial «to those who came'a long distance. rbe matter then dropped. U DYLASA ROAD. A letter was read from Mr Green, timber merchant, who the Council complained at a previous meeting had caused extraordimary damage, to the above road by the haulage of timber. x Mr Green said it was not extraordinary traffic, as the timber was ordinary and the conveyances used were ordinary, and if they decided to carry the matter further, he would place the same in the hands of the Timber Trades' Association. The Clerk said he had an interview with Mr Green on the matter, and that gentleman could not eintertaim any claim. At the same time he said he might give them a donation of £$to- wards the repairing of the' road. The matter was. left in the hands of the Clerk, who was authorised to ask for [15. DYFNANT BRIDGE, CWM. A letter was read from Mr David Jones, Gian Aber, Cwm, Penmachmo, complaining of the state of the above bridge. 1 Mr J. Lloyd Morris explained that this was a flat bridge, and gravel had accumulated, and when a rush of water came there was not suffi- cient room for it to pass through, with the result that it came on to the road, which it damaged considerably. After half an hour's discussion, it was resolved that the matter be left in the hands of the three Guardians and the Surveyor to meet the owners of the adjoining property, the Surveyor to be authorised to do that part of the work which belonged toi the Council without delay. PENMACHNO SCHOOL. The Surveyor, in reply to Mr J. Llovd Morris, said that the above school had now been cleaned and repaired, and also the Dolwyddelen school, and he never saw the latter in as 'good a condi- tion. The former, however, was still over- crowded. Mr Lloyd Morris said it was their duty to remedy this matter, -in fairness to the teachers, and consequently -it was resolved that notice be sent to the Education Authority. INSURANCE. The Clerk report.ed having insured the work- men at the reservoir with the Commercial Union Company, and his action, was confirmed. ASSESSMENT OF THE WATER WORKS. Mr J. Lloyd Morris complained that the Pen- machno water works had been assessed too high, the rateable value having been set down at £ ?40, whereas the rent paid was only about "iS. The. matter dropped, with the intimation that the Council would have an opportunity of ap- pealing against the assessment.

Campbell Bannerman) and his worthy col- leagues, and its unabated confidence- in its Parliamentary Representative, the Rio-ht Hon. D. Lloyd-George. We further desire .to em- phasise ;the heartfelt yearning of the Welsh na- tion for a Bill to Disestablish and Disendow the Church of England in Wales, which was em. phatically expressed by the unprecedented unanimous Liberal returns of the General Elec. trian in Wales; and this .meeting earnestly desiDes that this important legislation be speedily d'ealit with by the Government in accordance with the wishes and fair demands of Noncon- formist Wales and the oft-repeated promise.s of Liberal leaders." The Rev. Luther Thomas seconded. and it was carried unanimously. The Rev. Gwynfryn Jones, Llandudno, at the close, -delivered a powerful address on differ-eni aspects of Liberal policy. In the course of his eloquent observations he said that he was of opinion that the only way to bring about the Disestablishment of the Church was by doing away with the House of Lords
