The Welsh Church, DEBATE STILL PROCEEDING IN THE COMMONS. Mr. A. J. Williams Refers to the Western Mail" and its Special Letters 1 from Ireland. HOUSE OF COMMONS, Tuesday Night. Like another stage, the House of Commons has its light fore-piece or curtain-raiser to precede the serious business of the evening. To-day the humour of the situa-tion was compressed within the eleven questions that stood first on the list, and were gone through with demure unconcern by the author, Mr. Weir, to wfoom Ministers made answer with the utmost brevity consistent with Parlia- mentary courtesy. But, although long suffering, the House has a limit to its patience. Three members in succession tackled the Chancellor on the subject. Had his attention been cSirected to three questions ? pertinently asked Mr. Vioary Gibbs. Did he know that if every member asked as many questions they would occupy fifteen days and eight hours of the time of the House' asked Mr. Sain Evans, in a moment of arithmetical inspiration. And did he know that no Tory member had ever been guilty of such an iniquity stra.ightly asked Mr. William Johnston. To all of which the Chancellor could but hopelessly wring his hands and aver that it was for the House to decide. Whereat Mr. Weir simmered in his bliss to be the object of so much atten- tion. It was the good hap of members who came down to the House in time for the com- mencement of the debate to hear Mr. David Plunket. To hear Mr. PJunket is one of the rarer intellectual treats of Parliament. He is veritably the silver-tongued. Eloquence to him is natural. Speech flows from him in an even stream of unforced rhetoric, elegant in style as it is cogent in argument. Mr. Plunket is one of the most distinctively aristocratic men in the House. Like many men of long Parliamentary experience, he is bald, except for a fringe of ahnost white hair at the back of his head. He is tall and stalwart, his fine face is softened1 by the play of the kindlier emotions that are conspicuous in his character. Gentle of speech, too, is he. There are no torrential outbursts. The voice is soft and low* but withal sweet and strong. The effect is as if a great master of the art were playing exquisitely on the feelings of the House. This was abundantly the case to-night. The House, fuller than it has been on any opening hour since the debate com- menced, was enthralled, and listened in rapt silence. The Irish Nationalists, whose benches were the most thinly occupied of any in the House, craned their necks and leaned forward to catch every word. The Liberal Unionists, with Mr. Courtney and Mr. Chamberlain at their head, lined their bench fully. Mr. Lloyd-George, whose speech is yawning for delivery, sat in the heat of the scornful. That is, be filled the top seat on the front bench below the gangway, usually occupied bv Mr. Labouohere, while next to him, n the place of Sir Charles Dilke, was the not less portly and the eminently respectable figure of Mr. Alfred Thomas. The softening and refining influence of Mr. Plunket's eloquence ex- tended itself even to the applause. The cheers were an intermittent accompaniment to the text of the spooch-Iow in ton* but deep in the earnestness of expression. To have cheered loudly would have seemed a sacrilege. Mr. Plunket himself seemed to be imbued more than ordinarily with a sense of the solemnity of the occasion. The sole defect in his oratory is a stammer which compels an heroic effort to subdue. To-night, possibly from the emotion of the moment, it required a profound effort of the orator to Keep under this defect,, and he was at times less distinct than is his wont. But at times he was terribly distinct, as when, with magnifioent scorn, he denounced Mr. Secretary Asquith's scandalous charges against Irish curates, which charges had DJready been fully investigated and disproved in the House. Mr. Asquith had a bad time while this was going on. He wriggled in his seat like a worm on the hook. A miserable attempt at a scornful unile was a disastrous failure, especially as he could get none of his colleagues to join in it other than Mr. A eland, who is not of much account. The rhetorical poverty of Ministers was shown by the fact that they had nothing better to put up after Mr. Plunket than Mr. George Russell, Radical autocrat and Ritua- list Liberator. It was a curious sort of speech he had to offer-aeademic in tone, but not above debating class quality, and tempered by a clumsy wit that provoked laughter, but did not dispel the impression of insincerity. One tf Mr. Russell's worst efforts >vas to describe Mr. Henry Matthews, who is a Roman Catholic, as a Dissenter, obviously with an intention to sting. The best thing he said was when he pointed to Mr. Plunket as a survival of the brilliant eloquence of Lord Plunket. who used to hold the House spell- bound generations ago. Lord Wolmer came out strongly as the second Liberal Unionist who has spoken out against the Bill. Between Mr. Abal Thomas and Sir Samuel Montague wm sandwiched Mr. Stock, the Liverpool Churchman. The speech of Mr. A. Camp- bell against, the Bill was remarkable in that his brother is Mr. Secretary Camp bell-Banner- man, who is one of those responsible for the Bill, and then came Mr. Robert Wallace, who, as an ex-divine of the Scotch Established Kirk, naturally laid hold of the Thirty-nine Articles, which made a base of attack on Establishmentarian- ism, to the support of which he dragged in critically caustic, but copiously compli- mentary, allusions to Mr. Balfour's reoent' book. The galleries to-night were more inspiring than they have been since the Liber&tionist debate commenced. The Bishop of St. Asaph, Lord Windsor, and Lord Limerick and Lord Kensington, the Whips of the two parties, were in the Peers' Gallery. In the Distinguished Strangers' Gallery were two Chinese gentlemen, clad in blue r^b&s. They were apparently most interested in the cheers, and cne of them explained to the other what was the meaning of the strange noises, which were strictly inconsistent with Chinese notions of politeness. When Mr. Russell opened his speech the Celestials 1ed. But the loss of colour caused by their depar- ture wa-s made up by the. entry of two "7 Hypnotic Suggestions. I 1. Influenza might be sent to sleep for ever. 2. The Corporation might try to hypnotise the electric light into a success. 3. Mr. Bird might hypnotise the Liberal Thousand whilst he selected himself a Liberal candidate. 4. Mr. Maclean will hypnotise all oomfers. 5. The Corporation might get hypnotised and learn the correct way to buy the Cardiff Tramways. handsome non-commissioned officers of the Guards, who listened patiently to the ( debate. By far the most interesting and important personage was a tall, handsome young man, something like the Duke of York, who occupied q. seat in the Ambas- 1 ss,dors' Gallery. There he talked with Mr. a Stuart Wortley, who had gone up to the Peere Gallery, and taken the seat usually occupied by the Prince of Wales, over the ] clock, where he could be near h's distin- guished friend. The illustrious stranger wa,s j the Duke of SchleswdgHolstein, brother of s the Empress of Germany, and head of the t family to which Prince Christian belongs. r The duke wa sthe guest in the House of Mr. s Stuart Wortley, who, through the courtesy of a member of the Government, obtained f for him the entry to the diplomatic gallery. The Duke is strongly imbued with notions ] on social and industrial questions, and at his t request Mr. Stuart Wortley introduced him t to several members, notably to Mr. Jcun c Burns, with whom he went off for a long | talk. 1 Sir Henry Seymour King, whose icagnifi- f cent moustache and beard are the most ] admired features of the second Tory bench, c was the successful one of about a dozen j Tories who strove to catch the Speaker'; t eve. He contributed a new interest to the 1 debate by demanding that women, of when j there are millions interested in Church f work, should have an opportunity of voting on the subject of Disestablishment bdore { it was decided. Mr. A. J. Williams made e the best part of his .speech out of quotations j from the articks of the special commissioner l sent by the "Wettem Mail" to Iceland. En e passant, he complimented the "Western ] Mail" in terms the sincerity of a which could .not be questioned'. Apart from the "Western Mail" quota- g tions, his best hit was the unearthing of a e quotation from Mr. Chamberlain, in which he had avowed, himself a Libe viiomst, t —— e

CARDIFF CARPENTERS. « ]: OOJTUEMN THE WAYS OF THE TRADES' COUNCIL. C The Amalgamated Society of Carpenters and t Joiners and the Ge-neral Union of Carpenters and Joiners, whose united numbers are upwards of 800 in Cardiff, held their annual meeting at the Lesser Park-hall a few days ago. Amongst other business on the agenda paper was a proposal to make a levy on all members except those in receipt of sick and superati- ntatioct pay of Is. each, in order to rai snm j of money to give the Trades' Congress a fitting a reception to Cardiff this year, the money to be a handed over to the Cardiff Trades' Council. 1 The proposal was supported by several speakers, h who pointed out the duty of the various trades j in Cardiff of not being behind other and j smaller towns in receiving the congress on this J1 their first meeting in Cardiff in a proper t. manner. An amendment was moved "that, f, whilst this meeting prenvrally a-rriroves of a I fitting reception being given to the members t: of the Trades' Con err ess, we do not avproye p of the money being handed over to the Cardiff n Trades' Council," and was carried by a large V majority, on the grounds of the past actions ( of the Trades' Council beinp principally devoted to advancing the claims of political aspirants. It was pointed out to the meeting that for £ several years past several of the branches of the Amalgamated Society of Carpenters and Joiners had declined affiliation with the council, on the ground of their one-sided political cha- racter.

nORD SWANSEA'S ^WILI* THE GROSS VALUE ENTERED AT £ 215,160. Probate of the will of the late Sir Hussey Vivian, Bart. (Lord Swansea), has been granted, and the gross vtlne has been enta^eu fbr "probate as £ 215,160 17s. lid. The will bears date February 6, 1894. Lord Swansea bequeaths to his brothers and sisters 920 each to his clerk (T. D. Lewis) and to Arthur S. Merry, of the Hafod Issa Works, C50 each; to his ser- vants of five years' service, each one year's wages to his sons, Ernest and John Aubrey respectively, the jewel cases and to Lady Swan- sea jSaOO. his leasehold house in Belgrave-square and its furniture, certain effects at Singleton, the use and enjoyment as long as she chooses to reside there of the mansion house of Singleton and its furniture, and of certain adjoining land, a life annuity of £ 3,000 (in addition to the in- come from her marriage settlements, and an allowance of X400 a year each for his younger sons whilst minors, and of X250 a year each for his unmarried daughters. Portions of £ 10,000 each are provided for the testator's daughters, and after the death of Lady Swansea a sum of £ 10,000 is to be in trust to provide a home for such of his daughters as then remain unmarried. He bequeaths the plate which belonged to his father to his eldest son, and the remainder of his plate to his three younger sons. Lord Swan- sea makes heirlooms of the furniture and effects at Singleton, and he devises the Singleton Estate, subject to Lady Swansea's right of occupation of the mansion house, to the use of his eldest son for his life. He leaves the Park-le-Breos property and the effects there to his son, John Aubrey, Geliiher, Fairwood Corner and Whitewalls in trust for his son Henry Hussey, and Fairwood Lodge to his son Odo. The testator, who owned one- fourth share of the business of the firm of Vivian and Sons (held in shares of 140th each), bequeaths X14,000 of his capital in the business, and fourteen 140th shares to his eldest son, X7,000 and seven shares to his son John Aubrey, and S14,000 and four- teen shares to his residuary trust fund. The profits are to be divided as to 40 per cent. to his eldest son, 20 per. cent to his son John Aubrey, and 40 per cent. to the residuary trust fund. Having transferred his business of H. H. Vivian and Co., at Birmingham, and of H. Hussey Vivian, of the Hafod Issa Works, to H. H. Vivian and Co. (Limited), he bequeaths his shares in that company as to 40 per cent, to his eldest son, 20 per cent. to his son John Aubrey, and 40 per cent. to the residuary trust fund, the balance of which fund he leaves in trust for his sons, Henry Hussey and Odo, for each of whom when he attains the age of 21 years a sum of £ 10,000 is to be set apart. If only one of them should attain that age the present Lord Swansea is to take 50 per cent. of the residuary trust fund, the Hon. John Aubrey 25 per cent., and the testator's third son 25 per cent. but in that event the two elder sons are to bring their other shares into hotchpot.

THEATRICAL ACTION. CLAIM AGAINST A SWANSEA PUBLIC-HALL COMPANY. At Swansea County court on Tuesday (before Judge Gwilym Williams) Mr. J. E. Evans, theatrical manager, brought an action against the Swansea Public-hall Company for alleged breach of contract, claiming JB22 19s. 8d. damages. It was stated that plaintiff had arranged for the production of "Charley's Aunt." Some weeks later, however, Mr. Phelps, secretary of the Public-hall Company, Jet the hall for the first night the company was to appear for the purpose of holding an eistedd- fod.—Evidence was given to the effect that Mr. Phelps- had admitted that he had made a mis- take, but repudiated responsibility, and in sup- port. of the claim the defence, however, sub- mitted that the case must fall through on a point of law-, and read a judgment of Justice Chittv on the point which it was contended was on all fours with the present ease.—His Honour declined to aceepl, the suggestion put forward, and Mr. Phelps entering the witness- box, the judge refused to believe his evidence, and gave judgment for the plaintiff for the full amount claimed, with costs.

Miners Butcher Blacks A TRAGIC STORY FROJI THE GOLDFIELDS. Negroes who Stole a Syndicate's Pro- visions Pursued and Shot Down. By mail, via steamer Miowera, comes a tragie story from the distant gold fields of Western AHtIalia. Fabulous finds liave lately been re- ported from Ninety-Mile Point, nuggets between 50 and 150 ounces of pure gold being picked up on the surface of the ground. Pros- pectors pushed on for hundreds of miles beyond where white men had ever been and were brought back ill with fever and placed in the Coolgardie Hospital, already overcrowded with dying miners. The fate of these desperate men did not deter eight new arrivals from forming a s) ndicate, and with heavy packs of provisions, wnter, and rifles they started for the new diggings in the extreme limit of Coolgardie to prospect in the interior. They started Decem- ber 1 last, and, nothing having been heard from them, it was supposed they had met death, pntil Dan Rohertson, one of the syndicate, re- turned from his camp, 120 miles from Cool- gardie, on January 21. He confessed to the police that after discovering a mountain full of gold the party found that a band of blacks had. stolen all their provisions. The syndicate pur- sued the blacks to their villages and butchered them all, shooting the men and braining the women :md children. Tin; other murderers have been arrested. The solid hill of quartz which the syndicate found is 70ft. high, 250ft. wide at the base, and 15ft. at the summit, and is full of gold. The rush is setting in to the scene of the find.

Even those who differed from the views and sentiments of Mr. Marchant Williams cordially recognised his piquant pen, whilst Mr. Will Morgan's pencil, came in, 3lJ it richly deserved, for warm approval on every hand. Nor were the publishers (Messrs. Daniel Owen and Co.) forgotten in their enter- prise, worthy as it was of Wales and of them- selves. But there was this drawback, that the price of the volume was, to a certain extent, pro- hibitive, and that the masses—the keenest poli- ticians of all—could not, especially in these tlevH-eased times, participate in what is at once at literary and artistio treasure. Aware of this, Messrs. Daniel Owen and Co. have decided on trying the experiment of bringing "Welsh Mem- bers of Parliament" within reach of all, even the very poorest of the community. They will do this by issuing the work in seventeen weekly parts at the low price of sixpence each, the, first part to be ready for publication to-day (Wednesday). This offer is probably as unique in political annala. as is the work itself the, only complete art gallery of the kind that haa ever been produced in Great Britain. Those who have not seen "Welsh Members of Parlia-; ment" should order Part I., and. when they have admired its literary ability and its artistic excel- lence, they will not rest till they have acquired the whole seventeen parte, deeming them dirt j cheap at sixpence each. The portraits, lie 10 recollected, are not mere smudgy re-productions of photographs, but artistic studies from life, in which the features and the attitude of the various members are marvellously re-produced' no photograph could possibly compare in vivid reality with the finest of Mr. Morgan's efforts. The expense attendant on the publication of "Welsh Members of Parliament"—produced, be it noted, entirely by Welshmen in Wales—-has been such that nothing but a very large sale can recoup Messrs. Daniel Owen and Co. for their plucky and patriotio enterprise. We, therefore, hope that a large proportion of our readers will subscribe to the weekly issue of "Welsh Members of Parliament," and so be the possessors of a work that is of great value now and must become increasingly precious as time goes by.

JABEZ /BALFOUR. QUESTIONS IN THE HOUSE OB 1 KCOMMONS. In the House of Commons on Tuesday night. Sir E. GREY (Under-Secretary for 1 oreign Affairs), in reply to Mr. Darling (C., Dept- ford), said the judgment of the court at Salta. was delivered on the 20th. and was decidedly unfavourable to Jabez Balfour in the Klix suit. The appeal court had also quashed this suit. It still remained for the judge to decide if there was ground for action in the law suit called in the name of Borthwick. the lessee of the brewery, and whether that suit was civil or criminal. That was the only remaining obstacle to the extradition of Jabez Balfour. The Foreign Office only heard this mOglillg" of the proceedings in the Klix suit, and it waa not unreasonable to suppose that, as Borth- wick was the lessee of the brtswery of wmcli, Ivlyc was the owner, that the decision in the Klix suit would carry with it the decision in. the Borthwick suit.

COMMITTED fro PRISON. BANKRUPTCY OF A JHOTELKEEPER. An adjourned examination of Carl Virgin, late of the Griifiu Hotel, Brynmawr, was held on Tuesday at Tredegar Bankruptcy-oourt (before Mr. Registrar Shepard). Mr. George David, Cardiff, appeared on behalf of Mr. C. E. Dovey, the trustee of the estate: and the debtor was represented by Mr. Williams, Bar- row and Mr. T. G.

He had sent ats gifts a gold watch and chain, for which he had paid Mr. Freedman, of Dowlais, jB20 14s., to his father during last year at Stookliolm. He had sent nothing else to his father at any time, except- ing some small presents at Christmastide. -The debtor was also examined at some length by Mr. Williams.—Mr. David, at the close, said that, as the trustee wtts not in a position to give his certificate that the accounts filed were even yet satisfactory, he must ask that the suspended order made by Judge Owen for thu debtor's committal to prison for contempt should now be put in force.—The learned Registrar said that, under the circumstances, the order must take effect.
