The Deputy Borough Coroner (Mr. <?ivn Morris), en Wednesday, inquired :nw the cau?e of the death ct John n liliams, aged 82, Toatine-street, w ho at the Swansea Hospital on i January 21st, to which he was ad- mitied; on December 20th, as the result ■ of having been knocked down by a cab at the bpuom of High-street on thao date. Deceased's wife said that on Decem- J ber 2ULh, at mid-day, decca-sed was in I tus usual health, and af ter dinner went ior a walk. Her husband was a j cripple and walked with the aid of I crutches. Deooaseds ieg was broken m the accident, and it was amputated a week ago. iMu-Liier evidence showed that the de- ceased was walking up the middle of i Jigh-street, and when opposite the iioyai Hotel a. cab, driven by James ) Brett, overtook the old man and knockjd him down.

THE WELSH BILL. i Commons Discuss a Number of Amendments WELSH LEADER'S VIEWS i The House of Commons went into Committee yesterday on the Established Church (Wales) Bill, Mr. Whitley in the chair. On Clause 35 which is a definition clause, Sir A. Griffith Bos- Ciwen proposed an amendment adding the following definition: "The expres- sion cease to be established by law means cease to possess or enjoy any .status, rights, or privileges which have been com erred upon the Church 1-y statute, and which are not possessed j or enjoyed in like manner and degree by any other religious body in Wales and Monmcnth. He sa.id the object of the amendment was to get a definition of Disestablish- ment. it was quite unhistorical to as- sert that the Church was established by the State, and he desired to know what were the attributes of Establish- ment that the Government desired to get rid of by this Bill. If it was a, case of repealing statutes, those statutes ought to be scheduled. Was it iu- tended to do away with all national re- cognition of religion in WalesP Mr. McKenna, in opposing the amendment, said the word s e.tab- lished by law were exceedingly diffi- cult to define. He very much depre- cated any attempt to insert any defini- tion of establishment. Various at- tempts had been made at a definition in 1007. An equity judge in the law courts decided that the'word "estab- lished meant, in his opinion, that the State had accepted the Church as the religious body truly teaching tho Christian faith. If that definition was to be ordinarily accepted as right, it could not fail to wound the suscepti- bilities of Nonconformists. The words "established bv law have been used cgain and again in previous statutes dealing with the Church, and no defini- | tion had been inserted nor had Parlia- ment deemed itself capable of deciding what was meant. This Bill said that whatever meaning was attached to those words in the earlier Acts those attri- butes of the Church should cease to exist in future. Sir A. Cripps (C.) said if there was no definition at all there would be HI e lement of vagueness and contradiciira I which was bound to load to friction and I dispute in the future. The Welsh Leader. I Sir D. Brynmor Jones (L.) said he bad been trying to nnd out some legal authority on the subject, and he was going to suggest a proposition contained in the Compendium of the Laws of England," which was published in the j name and with the authority of Lord Ma)sbur,y and which might be taken as a correct statement of the relations of the Sovereign and of the law towards the yarious religious societies that ex- isted in. this country. In that book he found the following proposition. All rel igious bodies enjoying the Stune general recognition by law, strengthened in the single case of the Church of England by the circumstance of its con- nection with the State, and modified in the case of other religious bodies by such special enactments as survived to mark in each case the history of its evolution." Taking that proposition av a full st-atement of the law, the ehect of the clause would be to ma.ke it necessary to eliminate the words, strengthened in the single case of the Church of England by the circumstances or its connection with the State." It had been stated over and over again i that the great majority of the Welsn peoDle had no desire to put in the Bill any restrictions whatsoever which would embarrass or hamper the Dis- established Church as a free society of religious members. Sir A. Griffith Boscawen: Will the bon. member agree to put the defini- tion in? Sir D. Brynmor Jones replied that it I was not necessary in an assembly which wished to proceed on sound principles of legislation. It was not necessary to put in what was the Jaw- in general. The words "cease to be established by law" were general words, and taking them as general words, the answer he mooe w. that the words were defined partly by re- ference to the general proposition he laid down. and were made perfectly specific by the clause of the Bill. If the Opposition wanted to know what Disestablishment meant they should read th", Bill. The effect of the amend- ment would be to make the position 01 this now Free Church in Wales more dubious, whereas if the words were left exactly as they were the Church in Wales would be placed exactly in the same position as any ordinary volun- tary religious society, which was what the Welsh Lberal members desired. Mr. Llewellyn Williams (L.) said the terms of the amendment showed the d ithculty and danger of attempting to define what was meant by establish- ment. .Air. Ellis Griffith (L.) argued that no definition was required of Disestab- lishment. The Bill as it stood was a definition. On a (livicion the amendment was rejected by 291 votes to 155. Mr. Cave (C.) moved an amendment providing that the expression, all in- cidental expenses sanctioned by tre Treasury fur carrying this Act into effect shall include all expenses m- curred by the Ecclcsia.stical Commis- sioners and Queen Anne's Bounty with the mnction of the Treasury, in carry- ing the Act into effect." He thought :t was only rigtt the expenses incurred should be paid out of the actual moneys which were to be transferred from the Church. The amendment was negatived by 272 votes to 139. The Synod. On the definition of "Synod." Lord R. Cecil (C.) proposed that the first synod shall mean an assem bly or Con- vention, defined in regulations made by convocation of the Province of Canter- bury with the assent of the House of Laymen of the Province. Mr. McKenna said the amendment was quite unnecessary. Under Clause 13 the Established Church of Wales had power to hold synods for the purpose of .framing their own constitution when disestablished, and it would be their concern to see that the synods were re- f preventative. The Welsh Church might say tha.t they did not desire Gonvoca- tion to touch their constitution, but wished their church to be purely Wekh. | Mr. Llewelyn Williams (L.) sa;id the only real difficulty was that there was no definition of laitv in the Bill, and if such a definition was put forward auth- oritatively on behalf of the Church in Wales the Welsh members would put no obstacles in the way of its being in- corporated in the Bill. Viscount Wolmer (C.) said the Home Secretary had surpassed himself. The Welsh bishops were in favour of this amendment, but the Home Secretary would not accept it because he clung to Lis theory that the Church in Wales was a separate sect like any other .Noncon- formist body. It was a-theory of Welsh nationality run mad. Mr. Hoare (C.) asked who wa.s going to summon the first synod. t Air. Hobhouse said the ultimate auth- ority for summoning the synod would he tour Welsh bishops. The Cusilotine. Tho Committee divided undor the guillotine, which came into operation at 10.30, upon Lord H. Cecil's amendment, which was rejected by 279 to 163. Clause 35, the interpretation clause, was carried by 281 to 162. Ciause 36 was agreed to. A new Government clause containing provisions as to build- ing charges were carried without a divi- sion, but a second new clause transfer- ring from the Archbishop of Canterbury to the Lord Chancellor powers in respect to the appointment to notaries public to practise in Wales or Monmouthshire was divided against by the Opposition, and was carried by 280 to 162. Twelve new clauses in the names of private members were ruled out by the guillotine. Progress was reported, leaving three schedules to be dealt with on the last allotted day in Committee.

ENGINE DRIVER'S DEATH I County Court Sequel to Cockett Railway Fatality At the Swansea. County Court on [Wednesday, before his lionour Judge Hryn. Roberts, an application was made under the Workmen' s Compensation Act by the widow and dependents of Ed" u John Dyhouse, of Newport, an engine driver on the G. W.K., who was killed on the line near Cockett. on 23th February. last year. llr. A. Parsons (instructed by Messrs. Ford and Warrey, of Leeds), was for the applicant, and Mr. R. Y ililers Meager (instructed by Messrs. Robinson, iSmith, Son and Lewis) was for the respondent Railway Co. The question to be decided in the lease was whether the deceased was killed while following his employment. The deceased was driving a gvods train from Llanelly to Severn Tunnel junc- i tion. At five minutes past five on the morning in question the train was switched off near Cockett to allow the Fishguard Boat Express train to pass. The train was switched olf on the up avoiding lin. 1 here wits another train ahead which apparently blocked the way, and on j another avoiding line there was another goods train heading towards Llanelly in the opposite direction. This was an exceptionally heavy train and at this ?-pot it was usual to have on? or more -engines at ?he near. The ie,i? engine was very ueaxiy opposite to tlw engine on which was deceased. The driver on the leading engine was sup- posed to give a signal to start known as t il(1 two crows, but he must not tan: ,,e inii.,t n--t until he receives the answering signal fiom the engines at the rear. ben j the signal was given from the engine in front the two engines at the rear i were blow ing off steam so that the i signal could not be heard. The train j j wiuch deceased was driving moved j along slow-iy to another stop board. 1 t was suggested that the deceased lelt, his engine to communicate with the !tl'; vet's of the two engines at the rear of the other train and in crossing the mecals was knocked down by a light engine and killed. The xv- snondent's case was that the man hao no right to leave his engine. Evidence was given by Clement Whaiton, a fireman, and Dr. John Ditvies. His Honour agreed with a sugges- tion put forward by Mr. Parsons that it was for the respondents to prove the reason why the deceased t his en- gine. He did not agree with the sug- irestions that had been put forward I'V Mr. Parsons that it was for the re- spondents to prove the reason why the j deceased left his engine. He did not t agree with the suggestions that tiad ( been put forward that deceased left iris j engine to give a warning to the drivers on the engines at the rear of the other j Drain, neither did ho agree with a sug- gestion put forward by Mr. Meager that he l?tt his engine for the purpose of chatting with the other ?oginc drivers. He would look into the matter and defer his decision to an- other court. ■ 11 1 1

A FAMOUS PHYSICIAN. I Great Welshman who did Memor- able Work. The death was recorded recently in the Times" of Dr. C. T. Williams, physician and a well-known specialist in tuberculosis, at the age of 74 years. Deceased was a son of Dr. C. T. B. Wil- liams, physician extraordinary to Queen Victoria, and a brother to Mr. H. S. Williams, 6, Heathfieid, Swansea, a well-known and highly esteemed towns- man, and first cousin to the late Arch- deacon Williams, Cardigan, first princi- pal of Llandovery College. His paternal grandfather came from Ystrad Meury, Cardigan, and the wife of the late Rev. Dr. S. E. Morgan, formerly vicar of Swansea, was his sister. Dr. C. T. Williams carried on in in- stitutions observations and experiments which showed how the spread of infec- tion in consumption could be practically preveuted. He was the author of several books relating to medical sub- jects and climate; also of numerous articles in medical publications, includ- ing Quain's dictionary of medicine. For his services in consumption re- search work, King Edward VII. in 1907 conferred on him membership of the Roval Victoria Order. In 1907 also, his college at Oxford, where he founded two scholarships for Pembroke College, and four for the University, elected him an honorary fellow. He was vice-president of the International Association for the Prevention of Tuberculosis, by which he was awarded two gold medals.
