£ 500 DAMAGES. I SWANSEA ENGINEER'S ACTION AGAINST WiFE. I I SUIT UNDEFENDED. In the Divorce Court to-day, before Mr. Justice Bargrave Deane, and a common jury, a case was heard in which Mr. Alfred George Gedge, a marine engineer, of King E dward' s-road, Swansea, sued for a divorce from Kachel Elizabeth Gedge, on the ground of her aduitery with Mr. Sidney Arthur Jen- kins, from whom damages were claimed. The suit was undefended. .Iir. Bayford, who appeared for the petitioner, said there was a claim for damages, and the co-respondent's ad- visers had approached the petitioner's j legal advisers, and the result was that' the amount of damages agreed upon N?a,, 4:5W. The petmoiiej prepared I to take that sum if the jury assessed damages at that amount. The marriage took place on the 29th April, 1902. The petitioner, who was a marine ¡. engineer, was a good deal away iroiii Home, He lived Happily with his I wife while he was ashore. They had one child in 1909, and shortly after the birth, or that child petitioner noticed that his wife' s affection was estranged. In 1912 she wanted to separate from him, and after an agreement had been drawn up, the wife went for a holiday to LL-ii- drindod Weils. Information then reached the peti- tioner, which accounted for the differ- ence between him and his wife. It ap peared that she had made the acquaint. ance of the co-respondent three or four years ago, and that they had been in the habit of going about the country together and staying as man and wife at different places. wh':Je the petitioner was away at sea. Counsel said he would be able to prove that respondent and co-respondent had stayed for week-ends at the HeIr Inn, Llangwryney. I Petitioner's Evidenoe. ) lne peuiion-T m h;s evidence said he lived at King Edward-road, Swansea He was married to the respondent in 1902 at the registry office, Charles- street, Cardiff. They afterwards lived at Barry and other places. In August 1910 when he came back from a voyage iris wife met him at Hamburg. He had then been away sixteen months. Counsel: Did you observe any differ- ence in her attitude towards you then? Petitioner: Yes, formerly she had been quite affectionate. Then she was cold and indifferent and she insisted on our occupying .separate rooms. Did that matter trouble you a great deal ?—Yes, it did. Did you try your best to regain your wife's affectionsY—I did, but she re- mained cold and indifferent. Wanted Separation Order. I In 1912, said petitioner, his wife wanted a separation. He objected to it. but an arrangement was come to, and he made an allowance. They agreed I nomina lly to live toget her. The agree- ment was on 2ith October, 1913, and hi-s wife afterwards went away to Llan- drindod Wells. Then information reached him which led to the filing of the petition. Alice Jones, the next witness, said she knew the petitioner and respondent. In 1909 she was staying at the Bell Inn, Llangwrvney, and Mrs. Gedge was there. Mrs. Gedge was visited by Mr. j Jenkins, who stayed the week-ends with her, and they occuuied the same bed- room, passing as Mr. and Mrs. Jenk??ns. I I Damages Assessed. I I The jury found for the petitioner, and assessed the damages at the amount agreed upon, 1:500. A decree nisi with costs, and the cus- tody of the child. was granted to the petitioner.

ANOTHER CREAT BUDCET. A TRIUMPH. PAST YEAR ONE OF UNBOUNDING PROSPtSiTY. STARTLING FIGURES. VAST INCREASE IN NAVAL AND MILiTAHY EXPENDITURE. ( By Our Special Correspondent.J I Tbe Chancellor introduced his fifth I Budget in the House of Commons this afternoon. There wa- a large attend- ance of members, who followed the remarks of the speaker with the closest attention. The White Papers supplied to the members before the Budget statement showed that the actual expenditure for the past financial year was £ 188,622,000, and the actual income was L188,802,000, the income being £ 1,613,000 above the estimated sum. I Most Prosperous Year. I The Chancellor, who rose at 3.40, said that last year had been the most prosperous one for the trade of the country, and had exceeded the most sanguine estimates. It had been a red-letter year for British shipping, and despite the war and the coal strike, there never had been such a year for trade. The loss of revenue from the coal strike was £ 000,(W0. The spirit duty had been satisfactory. There had been a reduction in the consumption of spirits and an increase in the revenue. In the four years since his contested Budget, the consumption of spirits had gone down by 28,0u0,000 gallons, and the revenue had increased by £ 5,000,000. The income and super- taxes last year had exceeded the esti- mates by £ 706,000, and the new taxes imposed by the Budget of 1909 had realised £:39,63.5,800, Increased Revenue. I Last year there was an increase of £ 1,155,000 over the previous year. The expenditure had not been so great as estimated owing to the smaller outlays of the >.avy and other ser- vices. The revenue for the past year had exceeded the estimates by £ 1,613,000 The total expenditure for the past year had been estimated at £ 101,556,300, hut the actual expendi- ture had been £ 188,622,000. The Exchequer balance had not been depleted by a single penny. Ali the expenditure had been met out of the rejenue. The estimated expenditure for the en- suing year was £19.5,640,000 a gigantic sum. The amount 1:195,000,000 was a very startling figure, exepnditure had rushed up at an alarming rate in every county. It was mainly duo to naval and mili- tary expenditures, but it was also due to increase of social obligations. Fifty years ago there was a situation analyous to that existing to-day. There was a year of invasion only then it was from France, and the expenditure rushed up. The Budget then was £ 70,000,000. They now knew that there never was any cause to fear an invasion fiom France. Naval Expenditure. The naval and military expenditure fifty years ago was £ 28,000,000. It was now £ 71,000,000. British expenditure cn armaments had gone up by £ 15,000,000 since he had been Chancel- lor. (For further report, see 8.30 Edition.)

ANOTHER TUG. MISUNDERSTANDING AT LLANEILY HhHBOUh iiiUSf MEETING. At the monthly meeting of the Llan- eily Harbour Trust on Monday, Sir Stafford Howard presiding, Mr. Wil- liam Vivian took exception to a para- graph in the minutes of the Pilotage CDUlrmttee relatrng to a sub-committee being delegated .to consider the pro- vision of an additional tug. "1 don't remember," said Mr. Vivian, "any- thing being mentioned about the pur- j chase of another tug. My distinct re- collection is that the sub-committee was appointed to inquire into the working oi the preset tug and I would not be a party to the purchase of another tug, seeing that the Falcon already involves an annual loss of trom i:300 to 1;700. It would be maidness to add greater insult tv the ratepayers by acquiring another tug, and 1 move that this paragraph be l deleted," I The Original Motion. I Tha Chairman: Perhaps Captain Thomas will read out the proposal he made at the committee meeting. He had it written down. Captain Thomas: I expressed the opinion that it would be an improve- ment if a second tug could be got, and that the question was how it could be acquired. i proposed that a small committee ho appointed to discuss this and report to the Trust, and the motion was carried. Nothing was'said at the time against it. A sub-committee was appointed, but later exception was taken to it as the pilots were not repre- sented upon it. Two pilots were then added, and I think Mr. Vivian was re- sponsible for proposing one of them, or he expressed the opinion that a pilot should be appointed on the sub-com- mittee. The Chairman said that his recollec- tion rather agreed with that of Mr. Vivian, and he brought the miykter up at the meeting of the sub-committee that morning, but Captain Thomas was able to produce the motion as he haa I submitted it to the Pilotage Cominit- tee. The mention of purchasing a! second tug had evidently escaped his I (Sir Stafford's) ears. Full Inquiry I It seemed to him, however, advisable I that the sub-committee should inquire into the whole question, not excluding j the possibility of purchasing a second tug. It was not, of course, intended that the sub-commmittee should, coine to any formal decision before consultj ng the Trust. Under the circumstanees he suggested that Mr. Vivian should ii-ithdt-av,- his motion. Mr. Vivian adopted the suggestion of the chairman. Jt was decided on the motion of Cap- tain Thomas, seconded by Mr. Ja.n?s 1 Hamard, to add Mr. David Richards to the subcommittee. ? j

CRUSHED BY TIN WAGON o —— I DRIVER EXONERATED IN CWMFELN i CYULiST TKACtDY.

I TO-DAY'S PARLIAMENT. (Special to lhe "Leader." ) HOUSE OF COMMONS, Tuesday. The Speaker took the chair at 2.45. Lord Robert Cecil presented a peti- tion signed by the representatives of certain women suffrage societies, but not including, he explained the Women's Social and Poe tical Union— (laughter)—asking that they might be heard at the bar of the House in sup- port of their case for enfranchisement oi women.—(Cheers and laughter.) Truck Act Amendment. Mr. Ellis Griffith, answering Mr. Gill, sa.d the Koine Secretary -would be glad I to proceed with a bill to amend the Truck Act this .session, but in view ot the demands on the time of Parliament he was not in a position to make any promise on the subject. General Staft and Invasion Problem. Sir Samuel Scott asked the Prime Minister whether in view of the fact that the general staff had already given a decided opinion upon the question of invasion into which the Sub-committee of Imperial Defence Committee was now i inquiring he would consider the ad- vkabiiity of appointing to that Com- rnittee officers other than those serving upon the general staff who could in- vestigate the problem witn open minds. Mr. Asquith ?aid there wa? no ground &)r the suggestion that any member of the Sub-committee was not approach- ing the question with an open mind. It had always been his intention to in- vite Lord Nicholson, who served in the last inquiry to take a seat on Com- mittee as soon as he returned from India. Daylight Saving and Calendar Reform. First readings were given t<. two bills I presented by Mr. Robert Pearce, one to promote earlier use of daylight in certain months of the year, and the I other to reform the calendar and fix Easter and other and more Bank Holidays. I The Budget. I The House having gone into Com- mittee of Ways and Means, the Chan- cellor of Exchequer rose amid cheers of the Government's supporters to intro- duce the Budget. (For further report see Acxt Edition.)

I FROM THE DISTRICTS, I I Carmarthen. I On Monday a mural tablet to the memory I of Erinley Richards, the eminent Welsh I musician, was affixed by the committee of the Carmarthen National Eisteddfc-d, 1911, to the wall of the Carmarthen Guildhall caretaker's house, which now occupies the site of the house in which he was born on November 13th, 1817. It will be re-callca that the Eisteddfod Committee devoted part of its surplus to commemorate the life of Brinley Richards, who was the protege of King Edward Yll. and the composer cf the popular song, God Bless the Prince of Wales." Brinley Richards died on May 1st, 1885. t I Clais. I A very successful performance of the cantata, Dan y Palmydd (" Under the Palms"), by Mr. G. F. Root, was given at Seion Chapel, Glais, on Saturday night by the Seion Children's Choir. The conductor of the choir was Mr. Elias Davies, and the manner in which the little ones went through their performane reflected credit I upon Mr. Davieo. The artistes who took part wore: Soprano, Miss Hannah Williams 'I (CiydachJ; contralto, Miha Bludwen Williams GlaM; tenor, Mr. Jo6eph Davies (Birch- grove; and bass, Mr. Philip Ley (Birch- grove).

I annual meeting of the Carmar- The annual meeting of the Carmar- thenshire Class Teactiers was held at the Market-street Girls' School, Llan- eily, a large number of teachers being present. The retiring president, Mr. W. Wal- ters (Brynamman), received a hearty vote of thanks for his valuable services during his year of office. The succeeding president, Mr. J. R. Thomas, Glanamman, gave an address, after which the hon. secretary, Mr. E. R. R. Lewis (Llechyfedach C. School) I submitted a report of the salaries cam- paign. After some discussion, the report was adopted, and the secretary was heartily thanked for his strenuous efforts during the past year. Mr. Lewis was re-elected hon secre- i tary and treasurer. Mr. J.

Da vies (Llangadock), and Jenkins (Llangennech) were elected to the com- mittee.
