RHYL ADJOURNED LICENSING SESSIONS. These sessions were held on Tuesday, the following justices being present:—Dr W T Girdlestone (in the chair), Mr S Perks, Dr A Eyton Lloyd. Mr W Elwy Williams, Mr R M Hugh Jones, Mr W H Coward, and Mr J S Greenbalgh. The Palace Rotel. Mr F J Gamlin applied on behalf of Mr T Chadwick, of the West Rhyl Land & Buildings Co., for a confirmation of the provisional licence granted in respect of the Patace Hotel. He stated that the hotel had beey erected in accordance with the plans and specifications deposited with the Bench. Mr Thos Chadwick staged that the hotel was now completed. Mr A. A. Goodail, Town" Surveyor, placed a certificate before the court to the effect that the hotel was perfect in evetey way, and completed as required by the justices. The licence was then granted. The Foryd Harbour Hotel: The Objection Withdrawn. At the r general annual licensing meeting the renewal of the licence of the Foryd Harbour Hotel was objected to by Mr F J Gamlin, who appeared for the Rev T Shankland. The renewal of the licence was adjourned in order that the owner of the hotel (Mr J E Middlehurst) might be served with &-notice in due course. On the matter now being called upon, Mr Oliver George (Magis- trates' Clerk) said he was interested in the property, and had asked Mr Churton of Chester to act as magistrates' clerk during the hearing of the case. Mr J E Middlehurst appeared, and, in reply to the Bench, said he had attended at the general annual licensing meeting and was surprised to find that the renewal of the licence was opposed. Since the meeting he had placed himself in a position to defend and vindicate fyis position, but on Saturday last he received a letter from Messrs Gamlin and Williams informing him that the Rev Thomas Shankland would not farther oppose the renewal of thç lieence oJ). September 25th But having received notice of opposition signed by three justices, he had attended the court that day out of courtesy to the court. As there was no opposition to the renewal of the licence he asked that the justices would issue their certificate. Mr Gamlin said he felt that he should explain the position of the Rev Thos Shankland. That gentleman had opposed the licence at the general annual licensing meeting, an.d had caused the usual notices to be issued. The Rev T Shankland had intended to be present that day, but found that he had to go to Bangor to attead the Commit- tee of the Baptist Conveution. It was absolutely necessary that the Rev T Shankland should be present, and when he :found that he could not attend he (Mr Gamlin) felt it his duty to tell Mr Middlehurst that the opposition would be with- drawn so far as the Rev T Shankland was concerned. It was quite competent for the police or any other witnesses to give evidence on oath respecting the licence. Mr Middlehurst said he did net think that after the objection had been withdrawn that the case should be gone into. The Bench then renewed the licence. Cruelty to Animals. David BIythin, donkey driver, Vale-road, appeared before the court on an adjourned charge of cruelty to a donkey, but the Bench decided to discharge him with a caution, the Chairman stating that his licence by the Council would no doubt be withdrawn. Cruelty to a Coat. William Roberts, farmer, Dyserth Hall, was charged with cruelty to a goat. Mr Joseph Lloyd appeared to prosecute for the R.S.P.C.A., and stated that the defendant allowed a goat, which had broken its leg, to go unattended for a month. He had to point out that the defendant's duty was to see that the animal was treated in a proper manner. Inspector Toyne said that the defendant admitted that the goat was lame, and that it had broken its leg in failing down a shaft. On being asked why he did not atteud to the animal, defendant replied that it was not worth attending to, and that if it died, all the better, as it was not worth anything. Subsequently witness asked defendant to accompany him to examine the goatl but he declined to do sot The coat was lame, and in poor condition. Defendant nad told him that he managed the faplll for his mother. arJ • ■ t- • n £ «>ei» hti-.nued i-lo'i.w. I" brr J >5lp Vi»A'\ J, f\ Lt^ J;' .t, waHllJg au*>iiu ocuien 01 looci. ine goat naa been lame for Sopne time. Robert Ivor Roberts, brother of the defendant, said that the goat could not ba removed from the field on account of the Foot and Mouth Disease Order prohibiting the animal being taken across a road. Mr Joseph Lloyd said the goat had been lame for a month before the Order came into force. Defendant was fined 10s and f2 costs. Enforcing Sanitasy Regulations. Mrs Price Roberts, Shamrock House, was again summoned for disobeying an order of the Rhyl Council to carry out certain sanitary alterations on her premises. Mr R Bromley appeared for the Council, and Miss Roberts represented her mother. On the case boing called Mr Bromley stated that at the previous courts the defendant had promised through her solicitors to carry out the alterations required. But as nothing had been doas he now applied for an order. Mr R J Hughes, Sanitary Inspector, said he visited the premises in April and found several nuisances existing. The Council had served notice in due course, but the defendeft had not carried out what was required. Miss Roberts said that certain things had been done and the rest of the work would be carried out in due course. At the present time the work was being carried out as fast as possible. Mr Bromley stated that the Council had been defied since April, and he pressed for an order. Mr Godfrey Pyry went into the box and said that he was asked by Miss Price Roberts to look after the matter for her, and he was able to say that the work was proceeding as rapidly as possible. Mr Gamlin, as a member of the legal profession, protested against Mr Godfrey Parry appearing in the case. Mr Parry then said that he would appear as a witness. He knew that Miss Roberts could not get down a certain kind of pan closet under 14 days or a month. Mr Coward: I know they can be got down in ten days. The Bench then ordered the defendant to carry- out the alterations within 21- days and to pay f3 2s. costs. Miss Roberts protested against the order, and said the work was done. The Magistrates' Clerk replied that the Bench were determined that the requirements of the Council should be carried out. If the defendant wanted any information she should obtain it at the Council office, or he (Mr George) would tell her what she wanted to know. The Roose Nuisance Again Running the Risk of an Epidemic. Mr Bromley appeared before the Court, and said that he was directed to apply, on behalf of the Rhyl Council for an order to close the house occupied by Mrs Jane Roose in Bedford-st,as she had not obeyed the order of the court to remedy certain defects, nor bad she abated the nuisances com- plained of. The Magistrates' Cl'erk thought that the defendant should be summoned before the court to show cause why the house should not be elosed. Mr Bromley said the previous order was made under a different section to that under which he was now applying. It wns absolutely necessary that the house should be closed in the interest of the public health. The Magistrates' Clerk stated that the Council had the power to do the work, and to recover the cost, from the defendant. Mr Elwy William? If the case is so serious why do you not do the wofk yourself, and charge her with the cost. Mr Bromley Because it is a question whether we shall ever get the money from the people. The Magistrates' Clerk advised th« court that they were bound to issue a summons against the defendant before the case could be dealt with and an order made. Mr Bromley contended that under Section 97 of the Public Health Act it was not necessary that a summons should be issued. The defendant was in court and ready that the oase should^be heard. The Chairman said he felt that the town was running the risk of being poisoned because the order could not be made. He did not know what the law was on the subject. Mr Elwy Williams Is it safe b to make the order asked for without a fresh summons being issued The Magistrates' Clerk No. Mr Bromley I apply for an information to be made out now the defendant is in court, and seems anxions that the case should be heard. The Magistrates' Clerk It wilAtake me twenty minutes to'make out the summons. Mrs Rocse: I am here to tell the truth and I will stand here as long as I can, although I am nearly dropping. P.S. MacWalter advised her to be quiet and to take a seat. She then sat down. The Magistrates' Clerk It you want a com- plaint, Mr Bromley, you must come to my office, and I will make out the information. I advise the justices that it will not be right to make an order unless a complaint is made and a. summons issued. The justices might have made the order asked for to-day when they made the first order. Mr Bromley contended that a summons could be granted that day, though he did not consider that a summons was necessary. Mr Elwy Williams If you say the thing is so serious you can remedy it by doing the work yourself. I think it is contrary to common sense that you should come here and ask for a closing order. Why don't you go and do the work and recover the money from the defendant ? Mr Bromley We will never get the rnomy from tbem. It it not fair that the ratepayers should pay for putting other people's property in a sanitary state. Mr Elwy Williams: It is only a bagatelle and will do away with a serious nuisance. The Chairman (to Mr Bromley): Do you tpply for a summons to be issued to-day ? Mr Bromley Yes, I do, sir. The Chairman Then it ought to be granted. I will wait as one of the magistrates to hear the case to-day. The Magistrates' Clerk That is most irregular and not fair to the defendant. I cannot get the papers ready under a quarter of an hour. Mrs Roose here attempted to address the court, and was told by the Magistrates' Clerk that she had better go away, as she was not before the court. The Chairman: We will adjourn the case until this afternoon. The Magistrates' Clerk: There is no case to adjourn. Mr Elwy Williams Is it not possible for the Council to do this work in six hours ? Mr Greenhalgh Yes. Mr Elwy Williams It is a great shame that they do not do it. Mr Bromley Cannot we have the case on this afternoon ? The Magistrates' Clerk It is not fair that the case should be rushed. Mr Bromley Mrs Roose is anxieus to have it. The Magistrates' Clerk Justice must be done. Mr Bromley And germs will be flying about while we are waiting for a fortnight. Mr Elwy Williams You are running the risk of an epidemic in the town for the sake of 92 or JE3. It is persecution. The matter then dropped, and Mrs Roose left the court. Cruelty to Donkeys. Hugh Jones, donkey driver, Vale-road, was fined ;)5. and 8s. 6d. costs for cruelly beating a donkey. William Thomas, 149 Vale-road, and Edward Lloyd, 216 Vale-road, were also fined 2s 6d and 8s 6d costs each for like offences. In- spector Toyne, R.S.P.C.A., proved the case. James Owen Jones, 14 Greenfield-street, was charged with working a donkey in an unfit state, but the case was dismissed, the defendant con- tending that a sore on the animal's neck was caused by its rubbing against a wall, and not by being worked. A Peculiar Case Against the Tenant of the Foryd Harbour Hotel. Emma Somers, of the Foryd Harbour Hotel, WHS charged on two separate informations with selling intoxicating drink, she not being a person licensed for the sale of the same by the justices. Mr Joseph Lloyd appeared for the prosecution, and Mr Moss, barrister-at-law (instructod by Mr Rudland), for the defendant. In laying the facts hefore the court, Mr Joseph Lloyd said it had arisen in consequence of certain facts coming to the knowledge of the police at the last licensing meeting. As a result the police looked closer into the facts, and they came to the conclusion that there was unioubtedly a breach of the licensing law. There were two things necessary before intoxicating drink could be sold on premises. In the first place the housp had to be licensed and secondly, the person who was going to use those premises was also to be licensed. A person who did not hold a licence could not sell on licensed premises anymore than a licensed person could sell on unlicensed premises. He contended that notwithstanding the fact that the Foryd Harbour Hotel was licensed, Mrs Somers held no licence, and she could not occupy that house and sell without being licensed. It r c •'j' i »•«<" recetv*. nehi,, _i' «;? j rr»v* c. laiiuiuru oi a place could not get a licence and then put another person in as tenant to carry on the business apart from the landlord. He sub- mitted that all he had to do was to prove to the Bench that drink had been sold at the house by the defendant, and that she was not licensed. F. C. Tailby, clerk with Messrs Gamlin and Williams, said that on July 23rd he had occasion to visit the Foryd Harbour Hotel on business, and he there saw a pot of beer supplied to a man named Bythall by the defendant. He subsequently saw the defendant sign a statement to the effect that she owed a firm of brewers in Edinburgh, Messrs Jeffreys and Co., £21 for beer supplied to her, and retailed at the hotel. She agreed to pay £1 per month. In cross-examination, the witness said that the statement was signed in connection with proceed- ings subsequently taken against the defendant and Mr J E Middlehurst. Robert Bythall. a boatman at Foryd, was next called into the box, and caused considerable amusement by the way he fenced with Mr Joseph Lloyd's questions until assured that there was no charge of Sunday drinking against him. He then requested that Mr Lloyd would get ahead with the rest "—(laughter)—adding that he did not go near the hotel on Sundays except for the rowlocks of his boat, which would be pinched if he did not place them in safety. Mr Joseph Lloyd You are here on subpoena ? Witness I am here summer and winter (laughter). Mr Churton He does not understand the word subpoena. Replying to other questions, the witness said he had drink at the house every day except Sundays. Mr Joseph Lloyd Did you have a glass of beer on the day Mr Tailby was there? Witness Did I have what ? I never had a glass of beer in my life.—I always have a pint (laughter). Have you seen Mr Tailby at the Foryd ?-It strikes me I have seen you there (laughter). Did you see him there the day you had the pot of beer ?-Haven't I taken you up the river ? (laughter). You have said you had drink there every day, and I suppose you pay for it. Did you pay for this pint ?—None of your insulting remarks. Of course I always pay for drink. There is not a publican in Rhyl who has 6d. against me. Mr Oliver George then went into the box and said, as Registrar of the County Court, he produced certain papers in an action brought against Mrs Somers and Mr John Edward Middlehurst. In an affidavit of August 25th, Mrs Somers said: "I say I am not the manageress of the said Foryd Harbour Hotel, but I am tenant, and the beer was not sun- plied to the defendant, John Ed Middlehurst. It was sold and supplied to me by plaintiff's traveller, John IHudson." He also produced an affidavit made by Mr Middlehurst in which he said My connection with the said hotel is that as owner of the freehold, in which capacity I obtained the licence of the premises in succession to the former tenant, who became bankrupt. I am not in any way interested in the business there being carried on by the said EmmJ. Somers, who pays for the licence every year, and is the only. person inter- ested in therticence." Mr Churton asked Mr Joseph Lloyd if he contended there was anything more than a technical offence committed. The house was licensed, and it was not like a case in which there was no licence. Mr Joseph Lloyd replied that the facts dis- closed at the licensing session were sufficient to make the police take notice of the matter. In cross-examination, Mr George said the hotel was kept by the mother of the defendant up to the time of her death, and after that it was kept by defendant's brother until he became a bankrupt. Mr Middlehurst took the licence after that. The licence had been regularly renewed and no objection had been raised until that year. He knew nothing about the way the hotel was carried on from about 1897 until a few days before the attempted sale, when he saw Mrs Somers, and that person did not know exactly how she stood, whether she was manageress or tenant; but even- tually she said she had come to the conclusion tha she was the tenant. Mr Moss said he would not contend that the defendant had not sold drink, as she had done so openly to the world for jears. There had only been a verbal arrangement between her and Mr Middlehurst that she was to take the house and live there in the same way as her mother and brother had done. As he wished to sell the pro- perty, Mr Middlehurst did not tie himself down to any arrangement. He was the licensee, and as such did not want to shirk his responsibility. The police knew that the defendant sold at the place, the Bench knew the same. It was certainly an unusual proceeding that had come before the court that day. What did the Bench find ? They had I certain civil proceedings for the recovery of a debt against persons connected with the house, and a clerk was sent down, apparently for the purpose of getting an admission from the defendant as to her liability for the debt. In consequence of proceed- ings having failed against the lady, the informa- tion obtained was used again in criminal proceed- ings. That was not the kind of thing of which any man was to be proud. He protested against evidence obtained in that way being used against the woman. But he also contended that there was no offence such as the licensing law contem- plated. In the first place the defendant was keeping the premises with the consent of the owner and consent of the licensee. The house was fully-licensed, and its occupation by the licensee was not a necessity. A licence could be granted to the secretary of a limited liability company, who could put who he liked into it. If that was so, he failed to see how the defendant could be convicted of having committed a breach of the Licensing Act by selling drink without a licence, seeing that she sold with the consent of the owner, and with the knowledge of the police and magistrates, To say the worst thing possible against the defendant would be that she had committed an offence of a wretchedly technical kind, the principal evidence of which was obtained in a way that he much condemned. The house had been well conducted, and he asked the Bench to say that there had been no offence against the Licensing Act. Afer a brief consultation in private, the Chairman said the Bench considered the case proved, but it was of so trivial and technical character that they had decided to dismiss the information, but ordered defendant to pay the court costs. They wished also to state that in their opinion the licence should be as soon as possible transferred to Mrs Somers, or to some other tenant of the house. Mr Joseph Lloyd said he felt it was only right to say that the police were bound to enquire into matters when it came to their knowledge that the defendant denied that she was manageress, and admitted that she was the tenant. Mr Churton advised that Mrs Somers had better apply for a temporary authority then or the house would have to be closed. Mr Moss said he would apply. Mr Middlehurst, on being informed of what was suggestad, at first declined, but after a consulta- tion with Mr Moss he consented, and the Bench then granted a temporary authority to Mrs Somers. -r

BROWN On the 20th inst., at St. Thomas' Church, Rhyl, the marriage was solemnised of Miss Edith Minshull (daughter of Ex-Inspector W Minshull, of Abbey Street), and Mr C H Brown, of London. The Vicar officiated, and there was a large attendance of the friends of the bride.

ST. ASAPH ADJOURNED LICENSING SESSIONS. MONDAY.—Before Major Birch (in the chair), Dr Easterby, Dr Davies, and Mr R. C. Enyon. Application for a Wine and Spirit Licence. Mr Joseph Lloyd applied on behalf of Mr Emrys Jones, chemist, St Asaph, for a wine and spirit licence. He stated that Mr Jones had been requested by several customers for wine and spirits, and he decided to be placed in a position to supply them. It was well known thac Mr Jones carried on a high-class and respectable business. The Magistrates' Clerk said that before an additional licence could be granted to Mr Jones it was necessary that he should have an Excise licence to deal in spirits. The formalities as to character, &c., were then proved, and it was decided to adjourn the application until the next court, to enable Mr Jones to obtain the Excise licence. Strays. John Jones, Abbey Farm, Rhuddlan, was charged with allowing 4 horses and 19 cattle to stray at Bodelwyddan. Defendant pleaded guilty, and said he could not help the cattle getting out of the field. In fining him 2s 6d and 7s 6d costs, the Chairman advised him to be more careful with his hedges in the future. Drunk and Disorderly. Arthur Brown, Elwy-street, St. Asaph, failed to appear in answer to a summons charging him with being drunk and disorderly, and a warrant was issued for his apprehension. I Non-attendance at School. Peter Jones, The Cornel, St Asaph, was charged with disobeying an attendance order. DefendAnt stated that his son played truant, and that he was nearly 13 years of age. P. S. Pearson said he had seen defendant carrying the boy to school. Defendant was fined 13s including costs, the Chairman stating that if the boy did not attend school in the future he would be sent to a reformatory. Saturday Night Row. For being drunk and causing a disturbance in Denbigh-road on Saturday night, Ellen Roberts was fined 2s 6d and 7s 4d costs. Jury Lists.

Prisoner stated that she came out of gaol on Saturday, after doing 21 days, and took a little brandy, as she was very weak. She was not drunk but excited, as a number of young men followed her about and would not leave her alone. Inspector Pearson said he had advised the prisoner to leave the town as soon as she arrived on Saturday. She was a perfect nuisance to the place, and had been sent to gaol four times since August 1st. Dr Girdlestone You will go to gaol for 28 days, and you had better not come here again.
