Mrs. Waldron, the defendnt, was then called, and said that prior to the day when the furniture was removed from her house she and her husband had got over their differences. Siie went down to r'ormby. and Mr. Waldron, while she was speaking to her husband, pulled him away, lie also said that if she called again he would give her in charge.

She denied that she drank. After the police court proceedings she was never allowed to see her husband. Krancis Xavier Waldron, aged eleven vears, said that when at Formby his grandfather tolii him he must not speak to his'mother if she came to the house. He refused to obey this order, and was sent to his mother at Liverpool. Dr.

Commins contended that the conduct of tlie father in taking away tlie son and refusing to allow his wife to see him was ample evidence of the undue influence. The jury found i'ur the plaintiff. BKKACII OF niOillSK. Hayks v. Cox.

Tho plaintiff. Miss Hayes, a dressmaker, of Kussell-strcet, sued the defendant, Andrew Cox, grocer, of llrownlow Hill, Liverpool, for damages for breach of promise. Mr. Tobin appeared for tiie plaintiff and Mr. Segar for tho defendant.

Mr. Tobin said there was nothing amusing in the case, and there were no letters, as the parties lived near to each other. The plaintiff was 19 vears of age, and had supported her parents till their death. She made the acquaintance of the defendant iu June. 1891.

He was a grocer iu a lucrative way of business, and had a good dual of property. The courtship lasted eighteen months, and the defendant used to take her out to theatres and to friends. He afterwards proposed to her and gave her a ring. Ou tlie day her mother was buried slie was crying, antl he asked her what was the matter. She said she was thinking of tlie three orphans left K'liind.

anil he proposed Ui take care of them. Tiie marriage was ti.ved for January 22ud last, but l-efore that defendant 'a affections began to cool. He gave no explanation of his conduct. In Novemlier bust she heard something about him being married, and went to his shop to question him. He told her then that In- was married, and thought she knew it.

In his defence Mr. Cox denied that he was married. in' plaint ill had lost a good home, and oought substantial damages. The plaintiff gavu evidence in support of her case. She said the defendant was tweuty years older than she was.

He treated her like a lover, not like a father. (Laughter. She had not made observations about tho defendant's baldness, nor did she say she did not want to Wither with tlie old man onlv lie iiad plenty of money. Laughter. The defendant was called, antl denied that he promised to marry the plaintiff.

He never gave her a ring. She tik "it olY ii p.c. i hi' Cot! i oo'. fii', I if 4 i y. I'-- I'-'-- 'iv.

Young people must have recreation, and it was well that that Societv should provide it of a wholesome and elevating character, so that young lives might he made bright and cheerful. Applause.

They needed far more associates to carry on the work.

An overlooker in one of these factories saiil that if a lady would herself to a place of employment she would lie of great service. Her presence would check had conversation, and she would be one to whom a girl might go in time of trouble. (Applause.) In many factories few or none of tie; girls were iu the habit of receiving any religious instruction whatever.

Would girl3 resent the inter-ferenee of workers of that believed suggestions like that were merely a cowardly temptation to them to keep them from doing their duty. There was nothing moro touching than the warm enthusiasm, the loving welcome and i riendliness with which they were nearly always received. Applatts'e. In endeavouring to reach the girls at a particular mill she recommended that in tho first place thpy should seek the aid of tiiu manufacturer and his wife and daughters, livening clubs were an excellent institution, musical drill was in reality an aid to virtue, and dancing if the girls pledged themselves to keep out of j.ublic-hotisR and dancing saloon was a safety valve for the romping instinct.

Manchester. About two vears since he obtained employment traveller lo Alexander Campbell, tailor, of Derby. Campbell issued an execiit ion against him in December last for 31, when Mrs. Magnall produced a receipt purporting!" show that the furniture seized was purchased by her from James Holland, at itadeliffe, near Manchester, in 1334. She issued an on the hearing of which amptiell swore that the receij.t was in Magnall's handwriting.

Iloth prisoners denied this, and slated that Holland, who signed tlie receipt, died about nine months since. 1 he case was adjourned for inquiries, ana subsequently Mrs. Magnall's claim was withdrawn. The jirosecution 'now railed tiie only two persons named James Holland living at one being Magnall's brother-in-law, and hoth Ueniu. all knowledge of the receipt.

CROWN COURT, Tuesday. (Before Mr. Justice Wills.) The Commission lor the holding of the Liverpool Winter Assizes was opened yesterday morning, before Mr.

Justice Wills, in St. lieorge's Hall. Business was cotmmneticed immediately afterwards. Mr. Justice Wills presidin? in tlie Crown Court i Mr.

Justice Charles in the Civil Court. The calendar contained the names of 93 prisoners, of three were charged with murder and three with in slaughter. Mr. Justice Wills, iu his charge to the Li rand Jury, said that he was afraid before their work was done there would be something like 110 prisoners to deal with. There were three cases of murder, to which he felt he must refer.

Tlie first was that in which a man named llraunigan was charged with having murdered his wife at Liverpool. From the depositions it looked like a case of manslaughter, but tlie medical evidence had been taken so slightly that he did not quite know what to make of it. There was mention of a saw-having been, found in the room, but tlie doctor's evidence did not state whether it was likely that tlie wounds had been caused by such a weapon. Probably the jury would think the safer course was to send down true bill for murder, so that tl: circumstances could be further investigated. Tho nd case was the one in which Margaret Ward was for the murder of a man named at Liverpool.

If the jury took a merciful view of the matter, it was one. he thought, iu which a bill for manslatigliter would meet the ends of justice, for tlie wainan was knocked down twice by the man iiofore she stabbed lo the iiwirt. Tiie third murder case was that in winch a la.i 15 years of age, named K.Iward John Williams, watt charged with the murder of Walter Neilson. a at lie proj vised to say no more ahout. that case than that, the conclusive evidence against tlie prisoner that, he inilicttsd tlie viol.

nee that led to tlie death of thi? man either by direct, violence or by falling against a sharp corner-was the lad's own confession, made under circumstances thai, made it impossible to suggest that it was not. a well-vonsideriHl statement. It was evidence, therefore, that went extremely well accredited to those who had to outsider it. According to the statement, tlie deed was done in a lit of teniiver afler a blow IkuI oven received done without intention to kill and without the use of a weapon. It would be tor tlie jury to consider whether that story was true or not.

Hans had been prepared oi the rooms, but, as often happened, tiie mosL important evidence was not to the jutlgo who had to charge tho jury. Also tiie evidence of tlie medical man had lieen prepared without reference to tiie confession of tlie boy, and was not directed to show whether or not the physical apivarances of (lie deceased wuuld support or otherwise the confession. He co: 1 not form a judgment on the cise, and it might be difficult for I hem to do so, but probably they would think it their duty to send down a true bill, King for wilful murder. Having briefly referred to ot: minor cases, his Lordship drew attention to the case in which William hunt was charged with having, at Liverpool, in connection witli curtain cotton transactions, committed forgery by signing two cotton contracts, lie (tlie Judge) thought that it meant that prisoner had by fraudulent intent induced a cotton broker to hold a contract over from a Monday to a Thursday. It was a peculiar case, and lie heard it arose out of other cases which had been iieard iu Liverpool.

It seemed that there was a broker named Cooke, who apparently enormous sales on the strength of the instructions of a syndicate. It appeared although it sounded almost that, he incurred liabilities in respect of dilfer''uces to over 40,000, although he did not appear to known a single person in this syndicate. The instructions were received from a person named Trestou, who was described as a gentleman. He was pressed for a contract signed by the supposed syndicate, and he brought tlie two contracts, in question, signed in the name of Lindsay, but really it was by William Luut, who seemed to have been induced to tlo it, by ids cousin, Isaac, l.unt. A) nareutly Cooke would have been just as well satisliial if William Lunt had signed iu his own name.

lie could not help thinking that it looked as though Conks had been speculating on his own account. iio might have believed that there was 'a syndicate, but lie took verv little trouble to look into it. It looked, as if he hail been speculating for a rise, but, as th--y were aware, there was a fall and Cooke had to stop. With respect to the forgery, probably they would 1': i a true bill, but with resjiect to the charge of 1: iving procured credit by false representation tltero Si tned to lie a mighty weak case. Cooke appeared to have wanted to know something about tlie syndicate and asked Trestou for information.

He sent William Lunt to see Cooke, and some questions put. to him. Cooke asked how many were in tiie udicate, anil if it was gotid enough for a million of money, and if it could find 40,000 iu a few days. went away to ascertain from his cousin h.aac, and en returning he told Cooke that there were ten in tho oyndieate and tint tho 40,000 would lie forthcoming. l)n the strength of that assurance Cooke lie! over from the Monday to the Thursday; and if lie iatisfted with tlie assurances he got aliout the syndic, then he was easily satisfied.

There was no evidence to show tiiat there were not ten in that syndicate. It seemed to be a weak case, anil it looked as though after a deal of money had been Inst by some people they were looking about to punish somebody. Of course it might turn out differently when the jury heard all the evidence. A ST. UKI.KMS nifiAMY CASE.

Ellrit Johnson, a middle-aged, well-dressed woman, pleaded guilty to having, at St. Helens cm tint 5th December, 1892, feloniously married Joseph (iuth-ntlge, her husband, John Johnson, to whom she was married in 18BG, being then alive.

NISr PR I US COURT. (Ifefore Justice Charles and a common jury.) THF CAt'sK LIST. There are forty cases entered, fourteen being common jury, fifteen special jury, -itid eleven lor trial by his lirdsliip. Among the actions are one for breach of promise, two to establish wills, three for libel, three for slander, and five for damages for personal injuries. The special jury causes include one by tho llight Hon.

A. II. Forward, M.l'. against Councillor Watts for slander and libel alleged to have been ftpoken and written during the late municipal elections. A FAMII.V Wai.ohon v.

Waldhok. This was an action to establish the will of the late James Thomas Waldron, draper, of Liverpool. The plaintiff, father of the deceased, propounded tlie will, the of which was disputed by the defendant, the widow. Defendant alleged tiiat the testator was not of sound mind, memory, and understanding, and th.it tiie will had been obtained by undue intluence, the plaintiff also having prevented her having access to the deceased. Mr.

Dighatn, Q.C., and Mr. F. were for the plaintiff, and Dr. Commins for the defendant. The testator was married in 1878, and lived with his wile until October, 1891.

The parties had not lived happily, owing, Mr. liigham said, to a great extent to the drunken habits of the wife. There were three children of the marriage. After Waldron left his wife she took police court proceedings, but an arrangement was arrived at under which he agreed to allow her ten shillings a week. On October 29 tlie testator, unknown to his father, went to his solictor, Mr.

C. K. Nield, in the prsssnce of witnesses drew up a will bequeathing th whole of his real and personal estate to his father, whom he appointed sole executor. Previous to this lie had made another will under which his wife was to have a life interest in his property. This will he revoked.

Evidence was given by Mr. 'ield and two clerks that it was absurd to suggest that tho testator was not. of sountl mind. James Waldron, the father, denied that he exercised any undue influence over his son. He put the son' and daughter-in-law in a shop in London and spent 12,000 upon it.

He Iiad seen his daughter-in-law in drink. Cross-examined, he denied that he had turned out one of the children because they sjko to their mother. One of them elected to go "away. His son died in May, 1892, and for some time prior to ids death lived with witness at Havelock House, Korinjy. Dr.

Commins said the real ground of objection to tlie will was tlie undue influence on tlie part of to father the other points were mere pleader's rJ'ations. The first will was made in accordance witli what one would consider the testator's natural feelings. The plaintiff, however, got his son under his control, and the evidence would support the conclusion tiiat the second will was vitiated by such influence. The testator had left his wife absolutely penniless; even an insurance policy for 1,200 intended tor tier bad been made over the Rev. K.

Hawlptt, the Kev. J. A. N. Hibbert, Mr.

U. F. Watts, and Mr. J. Dixon.

The hall was crowded. Miss Petrie, in describing some of the ways in which the work of tlie society could be helped, said one of the arguments the supporters of the society often had to rieet was that tiie heathen at home ought' to be attended to first. She would ask anyone who came forward witli that objection to point to any period in history in wiiich tlie Church at home suffered because, of her zeal for tlie regions abroad. Whatever period of history or whatever part of the world they turmsl tosho thought they would see that the work of tlie Church at home Iiad prospered just iu proportion to tlie zeal of tiie Church for the regions beyond, and that the time when tlie spiritual needs ol the people at home had been less thought about and less caml for had also lieen tlie Jinio when tlie spiritual interests of tlie people abroad had been forgotten. Ancther argument against interfering with the peoples in foreign lands was that they liad got religions of their own, ami that as: they had done very well with thein for centuries they ought not to be disturbed now.

If they got the testimony of those vho had really known these at home they would soon find that these religions were anything but go.l religions. She urged those present, to help mission work abroad liy praying for it. by working for it with their hands and voices, ami bv learning about it and diffusing the informal hit: obtained tu others. The Kev. K.

II. Walker then" exhibited a number of articles he had brought with him from Uganda, and gave a brief account of the people of country and their customs. Mika Semaiinibj also said a few words in his native tongue, iu which he spoke of the great desire of tin natives of Uganda to study the (iospel. At the c.u elusion of his speech lie was by the Kev. C.

The meeting then terminated. Catholic The annual report of the religions inspec i.in ot the Salford diocese lor the year ending IVecuiber 31, Ii3y2. says iie population of the has usually computed iu two wavs, one. by multiplying Uu- by 22, and the other by multiplying the children on the liooks of the schools by 5.

Taking the ligurcs given by these multiplications, and including industrial scltools, ami high schools iu the ciicttlal ion. thev work out as follow Number ol Kiptisii 1692. 10,012, which multiplied by 2cl gives as our population 21.0.264, or for live years number of Catholic children mi the rolls of i.ac 43,653, which multiplied by 5 gives as a population 218,265. So. we may calculate tl at there arc alvout 220.000 Catiiciii in this diocese.

Whilst, the children on the rolls of tint schools in the go gradually increasing, and Manchester and Salford are at last, by means of new centres, the efforts of tlie Kescue Society, and the efficiency of School Hoard ofiiciais, awaking lrom a long shimlier, iu the large towns if wo except lluruley we have either been making no headway, or have going back since the vear 1885."

The only discouraging feature is the increasing utunticr ot children iu the and industrial schools of tliti diocese. Had limes have much to do with this, also the setting up of a new- day industrial school at Oldham, in which 56 (more 'than one half ol the entire number iu the school) are Catholics.

"It is impossible, the Inspector says, "to speak too highly of the devotion of the majority of tin." teachers, men and women, nor can their" excellent work be loo loudly praised. Their self-denving energy and their practical everyday instruction, as well as their clear demousl ration ol the course appointed by the religious syllabus, make Hie inspection of our schools- an agreeable task, and the labour required, whilst yearly becoming greater, is given by the examiners with all the more pleasure a.s they see a corresponding growth in the efficiency of the teaching." In 1832 29,390 were in attendance iu Sunday Schools as against 27,89 in 1891. THE FRAUDS BY MOXTE CAIILO WELLS. SENTENCED TO PENAL SEIUTrUDE. The trial of Charles Wells for obtaining upwards of 34,000 by false representations was resumed before Justice Hawkins at the Central Criminal Court yesterday.

Mr. (T. F. (lill and Mr. H.ilkin represented tho Treasury, and Mr.

Abinger defended the prisoner. Walter fii'tibs, a nieehanical engineer, called by Mr. Abinger, spoke to working for the prisoner on the yacht Isabella. He had done electrical work on tile yacht Palais Koyai at Liverpool. The consumption of fuel oj the Isabella was very slight.

Mr. Where is the Isabella now? Mr. Abinger It is in the hands of the Official Itoeeivei in liankrtiptcy. A working engineer rained Micheati gave evidence for the defence. Henry Jartourx, an agent from Paris, said he knew the prisoner, who was his brother-in-law.

Thev iiad had transactions tDgether over steam machines." On.) of the machines was tn deal with the residue of rilivn oil. (Laughter.) Prisoner took out a patent for 3 marine engine, and sold his rights to a French coin-pany for 5,000 francs. In witness said lie knew that Wells wait in Paris in 1385. lie always went bv the namn of Wells, and was engaged in inventing machines. Mr.

Abinger then proceeded to sum up the case for the defence. Wells, ho contended, had an engineer of high standing, and had passed his whole, life in inventions. The learned counsel said he would not assert, that many of the inventions were valuable, still he urged that Wells was a ln.na-j'ulr inventor and not the impostor and sham inventor who had defrauded the public, as described by the prosecution. Wells at any rate had perfected 28 patents, and had receive! provisional protection for 150 more. He further argued that the evidence given as to the non-ex istencu of (he French company had not been conclusive.

25,000 of the shars of t'he company were, as a matter nf fact, in the hands of Miss Phillimore at the present moment. He also pointed out, that tlie principal persons who had advanced money to the prisoner had attempted to recover it. by civfl means before these criminal proceedings were' instituted. Hut for the fact, becoming known that, the prisoner had become a gambler at Monte Carlo he would never have stood in the tiock. It was true that he won 40,000 at Monte Carlo in live days.

TiiAt. was 8.000 a day. Why, if it got. ahtoad even in the Temple that 8,000 could lie won in a day at Monte Carlo there wou'-l at once be an eodus, and wigs and gowns might bo had lor an old song. (Laughter.

Mr. Justice Hawkins: You mttyl. remember there? are 4,000 barriste-s. At 3,000 a dav that would scon break the bank at Monle Laughter, i Mr. Abinger continued, saying that, he had never been at Monte Carlo himself, but he could easily imagine the rooms lighted with electric light, the red table, the game ling on, and the people winuing and losing.

tLaughti r. Mr. Justice You have given a very accurate o'escripf ion. (Laughter. I Mr.

Abinger denied that Wells had spent Miss Philli-ntore's money at Monte Carlo. He had spent 16,009 in fitting up the Palais yacht. then proceeded to to som." of" the invent inns than prisoner had patented, lie had in his hands a musleal skipping rope, I. ut it required skipping fo make ic musical, and he could hardly d.i that there. Laughter.

Mr. Justice Hawkins: Oh, you can do what you like- Laughter. Mr.Gill replied for the prosecution, and his Lordsi.q, summed up. The jury, after i brief consultation in the box, found a verdict of guilty on all the counts except that which related to Dr. Wf.it.

Mr. (lill said that there were a large number of other cases which had not been made the subject, i prosecution. In 18S5 the prisoner was sentenced in Paris for fraud iu his absence. Mr. Justice Hawkins said that the prisoner had been found guilty on tlie clearest evitlence of a series t.E frauds of a most: cruel and atiominable character and part of a very wide scheme of fraud.

It was incredible-how persons could part with such large sums of money in this way. He believed that, Phillimore had acted with the best motives, and tiro prisoner hadl traded on her good nature until he robbed her o( 18,800. would not be met if an exemplary sentence were not passed. He sentenced the prisonet on the first nine counts to five years on each count, the sentences to mn concurrently, and to three years' penal Fervitu.de on the other counts, the result beinj eight years' penal servitudo.

The Light Klues esterday were afloat in their new boat fifty minutes befcre high water, when they paddled up to Craven Steps and had a start from a moored skiff. Then paddling along as far as the Doves they encountered a nasty head wind, but at a rate of 31 tliey rowed very well Ihrough the lumpy water. When they got just a length above Chtswick Fciry they started to row through to the end of tlie championship course. Lewis set his men a strcke of 33, and at this pace Harries.
