THE TIMES, FRIDAY, JULY 19, 1901. THE THIAL OK KAUli 11USSELL. IU MM dtnitr. And the jurors aforesaid, upon their oath aforesaid, 0u further Present that the said Right Honourable oka Francis Stanley, Karl Russell, afterwards, to wit, ea lM seventeenth of mM in tba year of ow Lord On thousand nine hundred tad one, at the Pariah of Lambeth, In the Mid County ef London, and within tb Jurisdiction of th atld Central Criminal Court, apprettradcd and taken for the felony aforesaid. Tbo Clerk of th Parliaments tbrn directed tho Serjeant Anni to maVo proclamation for BUek Itod to brine prisoner to tho Bar.

Black Rod (General Sir M. Birldulph) then led the defendant within tho bar. Lord Russell, for whom a aeat had been proTided behind his counsel, did doe rcTcreoeo to tho Court, though leas frequently and elaborately than Lord Cardigan in 1811, and tho Lord High Steward called upon him to. plead. Tho Clerk of tho Parliaments then again read the indictment and How say yon, my lord, aro yon guilty of tho felony whereof you stand Indicted or aro yon not guilty COUNSEL TOIt THE DEFENCE ON JURISDICTION.

Mr. Kobson, K.C., who, with Mr. Mr. Charles Mathews, and Mr. A.

Llewelyn Davie (Instructed by Messrs. Vandercom and appeared for tho defendant, then rose to address their Lordships on the question of law wnciDcr mere existed jurisdiction in this country to try a prisoner charged wish bigamy committed abroad. Ho said The claim was baaed on tie 57th section or theOSeuces Against the Person Act, 1861 (24 and 55 c. 100), which waa in these terms I Whosoever, being married, hall marry any other person during the life of tho former husband or wife, whether the second marriage thai I have taken place In England or Ireland or elsewhere, shall be guilty of felony, sod, being convicted thereof, shall he liable at the discretion of the Court to be kept in penal servitude for any term not exceeding seven years and not lees than three years, or to be Imprisoned for any term not exceeding two yean with or without hard labour and any such offence mar be dnalt with. Innnlrwt nf.

tried, determined, and punished in any country or place in England or Ireland where the offender shall be apprehended or be in custody in the same manner in all respects ss if the offence had been actually committed in that county or place, provided that nothing In this section contained ehall extend to any second marriage contracted elsewhere than in Kncland and Ireland by any other than a subject of her Majesty, or to sny person marrying a second time whose husband or wife shall hare been continually absent from such person for the space of in men wi ran, anti snail noi nave Been known by such renon to be livine within that time, or shall extend to any person who, at the time of such second marriage, shall hare been divorced from the bond of the first or to any person whose former marriage shall hare been declared void by the sentence of sny Court of competent Jurisdiction." According to the reoognixed rules of construction, counsel argued, this section cave no jurisdiction in the case of a blramoua marriage in the State of Nevada. The words or else vg iku niui uniiuuuo i Dry inosni elsewhere within the Queen's dominions." That this was so wss shown bv the 9th section of tba axma Art dealt with murder or manslaughter. The words were When any murder or manslaughter shall be committed on land out of the United Kingdom, whether within the (W'i lv. ti i 1UU Niuncu UU( VHQ so wide and unusual a jurisdiction was conferred the Legislature was cartful to employ words which could not admit of sny doubt. The language of the S7th section msde no reference to the limits of the Queen's dominions or to land outside the United Kingdom.

Whosoever must be rtid with a like restriction, snd be confined to those within the jurisdiction. Wherever a man resided sbrosd he owed temporary allegiance to the laws cf the foreign country, snd if he broke those laws he could be puniabed there. Jt waa not intended that the Queen should, as it were, invade another jurisdiction. This principle wss applied in the case of McLrod v. Attorney General for New South Wales in the Privy Council (1891, A.C., 4iS).

The Judicial Committee were then called upon to conatrue a colonial atatote corresponding to the Act of 1861. Section 54 of the Criminal Law Amendment Art, 1883, reacted that "whosoever being married marries another person during the life of the former husband or wife, wheresoever such second marriage takes place, shall be liable to renal servitude for seven years." These words were held to be confined to the actual jurisdiction of the Legislature, and there was no power to try the appellant for a bigamy alleged to have been committed in the United States. Tho Lord High Steward asked whether tho Colonial Lepislaturo had power to legislate outside its territory. Mr. Robson said It had such power it express words were used.

It had aa much power in this respect ss the Imperial I'arllament itself. Indeed, in a section correenondinr to anrtinn 9 of the Act of 1801 dealing with murder the power was exercised Whosoever conspires to murder any person, whether subject to her Majesty or not, or whether within her Majesty's dominions or not." Tho words "or elsewhere'' in the Act of 1801 must be limited, as was wheresoever in this colonial Act. My the common law crime was exclusively local. A limitation wss also Irani led in Enrland or Ireland and elsewhere must mean elsewhere within the Queen's dominions." Effect wss given to a like Implied limitation in the Acts dealing with the slave trade. The case was stronrr then.

a slsve trade was almost necessarily carried on outside the British territory. The Act 5 Geo. c. 113 a consoll. I dating statute forbade to Import or bring into I any ruace wnauoever, staves or ouer persons as or in order to their being dealt with as alavca.

But the Act 6 and 7 Victoria, c. 98. was ranted to enlarra the im of iurisdiction, and dealt with offenres committed by iriti.h subjecta out of the United Kingdom, whether within the dominions of the British Crown or in any foreign country." Thus any place whatsoever was not wide enough to go outside the Queen's dominions. The case of Santos v. Illidge in 1860 (2) MS) was in point.

The defendants, a company of British subjecta domiciled in England, agreed to sell slaves to the plaintiff, domiciled in Brazil, where slavery was allowed. The alaves were acquired by the defendants In Braxil after i Geo. c. 113. but before 6 and 7 98, and the transaction was held to be legal.

Mr. Avory, K.C., followed on tbo samo aide. He said that it the section was made in the unrestrirtMt sense, it would apply to a foreigner who had contracted two marriages abroad and haprjened to come within the jurisdiction. Tho Lord High Steward said that Acta of Parliament were. In tho absence of express words, only applicable to tho King'a subjecta.

Air. ATory replied If the proviso extended to a foreltmer. it also extended to an Englishman. Nothing in this Act contained shall extend to any second marriage contracted elsewhere than in England or Ireland." It was to be ooservea mat tne statute did not extend to Scotland. Section 78" Nothing in thia Act shall extend to' Scotland." Thus the words or elsewhere could not extend to Scotland, much less to Nevada.

He referred also to Reg. v. Topping" (23 M.C., 72), to various sections in the Explosive Substances Acts, and to the Criminal Law Amendment Act, 1SS5. section 2. sub section 1.

Tho counsel for the Crown (instructed by tho Director of Public Prosecutions) the Attorney General (Sir R. B. Finlav. K.C.). the General (Sir Edward Carson, K.C.), Mr.

11. Sutton, Mr. R. D. Muir, and Mr.

Bodkin were not heard. The Lord High Steward said that their Lordships had listened to an argument of Inordinato length on other statutes based on other circumstances, which had no application to the present charge. Tho case was too plain for argument. Tho Clerk of the Parliament then asked the defendant in tho usual form whether ho pleaded guilty or cot guilty. Earl Rnsscll.

My Lords, under the advice of counsel, I plead guilty. Mr. Robson then addressed tho Court in mitigation of jienalty. After a brief refcrenco to his client's marriage, he said Lord Russell went to Nevada with the purpose of acquiring a domicile in that State, where Lo purchased isnu anti resiaca lor seven or eignt months. Un his return he was arrested.

Lord Russell failed to understand the position or to realize the inoperative character here of the divorce obtained in Nevada. This, though no answer to the charge, modified the degree of culpability. There waa no traod or concealment, and Lord Russell could not be raid to have inflicted any wrong on Lady Russell. A circumstance to be taken into consideration waa the measure of wrong as between husband and wife. The records of their Lordships' House would enable them to form a judgment on that question.

The offence of bigamy was one which varied Infinitely in the degree of moral wrong involved. The learred counsel then quoted copiously from the judgments of the Lord Chancellor and Lord Hobhouse la the appeal of Russell v. Russell," in 1897. Speaking of lady Russell, the Lord Chaecellorraid 8 She periistently made accusations sgalnst him which. If believed, would drive him from human society.

She made them when they would be most likely to he spread abroad, and as both in criminal and in civil jurisprudence people are taken to Insend the reasonable consequences of their acts, aha mnat have contemplated that all who encountered her husband vrould regard him with loathing and horror. She did thia, as tie jury have found, without any belief in her abominable and disgusting accusations, and with a base motive of extracting better pecuniary terms from the husband whom she thus vilely tlandsred." Lord HoU house said There arc Injuries worse than any personal danger. There are false accusallona of crime and dishonour such aa have driven men to despair and suicide. Earl Russell appears to be a man of robust Obra and can hear up stalest slander. Bat that cannot alter the nature ef his wifVs acts, nor, can the cruelty or malignity of them depend upon the nerves of her husband." It waa la el rcumsUnees thus described by noble and learned Lord that hit client had been driven lo seek uoUjct of our amid Lord, the King, his Crown and Tho trial of Lord Russell for bigamy, which was begun and ended yesterday, will afford much curious matter for tho reflection of Intelligent foreign observers.

Tho present generation has never before witnessed tho trial of a peer by hit rer for felony tho last trial of the kind having been that of Lord Cardigan in February, 1811, Just CO year ago. Strangely enough, almost tho name period elapsed between the trial of the, Duchess of Kingston In 1770 also for bigamy and that of Lord Cardigan. Tho privilege, which cannot bo waived, extends to Scottish and Irish peers, whether having scats In the House of Lords or notnd to all peeresses, whether In their own right or in that of their husbands. A Lord High Steward is always appointed for the purpose, and presides over the trial, though every peer is a judge both of law and of fact. Indeed, in tho Hocso of Lords ss an appellate tribunal there Is no express statutory exclusion of lay peers from participation.

Their right in this respect was waived, at tbo instance of Lord Wbarncliffc, In O'Connell'a case nearly CO years ago, and by reason of desuetude and the provisions of tbo Appellato Jurisdiction Acts may bo considered as non existent, though tho late Lord Dcnmau sat and voted though no record is made thereof in tbo' Law Report In the appeal of Bradlaugb v. Clarko in 18S3. In this respect tbero is a distinction a farther step in tho separation cf legal from legislative functions between Lord Russell's trial and that of Lord Cardigan. In the former no peer spoke save tho Lord High Steward, whereas several of the lay peers intervened at intervals in Lord Cardigan's trial. Tho proceedings of yesterday weresfrtelo sensn before tho Hon so of Lords.

If the trial bad been in tbo vacation tho Court would technically have been that of the Lord High Steward, though composed exclusively of peers entitled to vote. There is hero a further distinction as in tho Court of the Lord High Steward that august person Is the solo Judge of tho law, the other peers occupying merely the position of jurymen. It is an irony, not uncommon in our institutions, which invests with so much outward spleudour an ordinary criminal trial In tho ease of a peer, whilst tho House of Lords in the exercise of its appellate jurisdiction, wherein tho law is finally, and except by legislation irrevocably, pronounced, is content to sit in greater simplicity than tho tribunals of first instance its Judges, except tho Chancellor, wearing ordinary mortiing dress. THE SCENE IN THE HOUSE OF LORDS. The peers assembled in great numbers in the House of Lords at half past 10, The proceedings, though picturesque enough, were less elaborate than those which marked Lord Cardigan's trial.

On that occasion elaborate instructions wcro printed, and peers wero requested to wear their Orders, and each peer was to havo eight tickets at his disposal. Tho peerage was not then nearly so numerous and if such a courwc had been followed yesterday it is obvious that with a Houso of nearly G00 members there would have been no building availablo for the trial. After prayers the Clerk of tho Parliaments read the Roll of Lords Spiritual and Temporal, each, if present, answering to his name. The Judges summoned to adviso their lordships cat in state robes in tho body of the House. They wero Sir Francis Jcunc, President of tho Probate Division three Jndges of tho Chancery Division, Juoticcs Cozens Hardy, Farwe'll, and Buckley and seven Judges of tho King's Bench Division, Justices Msthcw, Lawrance, AVright, Kennedy, Bigham, Darling, and Bucknill.

There havo been fully 200 peers present, inclnding tho Prime Minister, tho Dnko of Northumberland, the Duko of Marlborough, the Archbishop of York, tho Duke of Wellington, tho Duke of Abcrcorn, the Marquis of Bristol, the Marquis of Rath, tho Msrquis of Cholmondeley, tho Larl of Pembroke, Lord Thring and all who usually it as Law Lords. After tho reading of the roll and the several responses. Norroy King of Arms was directed to marshal tho peers and tho Judges the junior Jndges leading into tho Royal Gallery, which had been specially prepared for tho trial. Then tho Barons wcro requested to go two and two in order of precedence. Somo laughter arose at this request, it not being easy in so largo a body for each to know his exact precedency.

After tho Barons came tho Bishops of whom thero were vtwo, Winchester aud Ripon and so with tho peers higher degree. Tho order of procession is officially given as follows Clerks Assistant, Clerk of tho Parliaments, Clerk of tho Crown In Chancery, bearing tho King's Commission to tho Lord High Steward; Judges, two and two; Barons, two and two Bishops, two and two Ms counts. Earls, Marquises, and Dukes, two and two Lord Privy Seal, the Archbishop of York, the Serjeant at Arms and Purso Bearer, Garter and Black Rod, carrying Whito Staff cf Lord High Steward the Lord Chancellor." THE ROYAL GALLERY, The Royal Gallery is a room of about HOfU long and somo 40ft. wide, to reach which from the House tho Princes Chamber has to be traversed. The room is a fine one.

bnt its acoustic properties are even worso than thoso of tho House or Lords, and it was extremely difficult to hear either the Lord High Steward or counsel. Scats for 100 peeresses had been placed at tho end adjoining tho Princes Chamber. A temporary throne had been erected, in front of which sat tho Lord Chancellor as Lord High Steward. The peers sat in their robes on cither side. Tho further end was assigned to the Press and those who had been fortunate enough to obtain Lord Chamberlain's orders.

Among tho spectators on these seats were the Duko cf Tcckvthc Speaker, tho United States Ambassador, and many members of Parliament. After the "Oyer, Oyez, Oyer," cf Norroy King of Anns, Sir K. Muir Mackenzie, ICC, read the letters patent constituting a Lord High Steward for the occasion. Tho form is given in the 4th volume of tho new series of tbo State Trials, in Lord Cardigan's case. Reciting tho indictment, the Commission provides And for that the ofSce of High Steward of Great Ilntain and Ireland, whose presence is required upon this occasion, inow vacant, as we are informed, we, very much confiding in your fidelity, prudence, provident circumspection, and industry, have for this cause ordained and constituted you Steward of our stid United Kingdom of Great and IreUnd, to bear, execute, snd exercise for this time the said office, with all things due and belonging to the same office in this behalf.

And, therefore, we commznd you that you diligently set about the pnmises, and for this time do exercue and execute with cCect all those things which belong to the office of Steward of our said United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland which are required in this behalf. Trwn. Norroy and tho Gentleman Usher of the Black Rod, after three reverences, kneeling, Jointly presented the White Staff to the Lord High Steward, who delivered tho Staff to tbo Gentleman Ushor of tho Black Rod on his right hand, the Purse Bearer holdinz tho Pniro on hi left. The Lord High Steward then ordered the rit of Certiorari, Return, and Indictment to bo read. THE INDICTMENT.

Mr. Aldersen, tho Reading Clerk of the Ilouso of Lords, read tho writ of certiorari for removing tho Indictment before the King in Parliament. Ho then read the indictment, which was in tiie following terms Central Criminal Court, to witThe jurors for our Lord the King upon their oaths present that The Right Honourable John Francis Stanley, Karl Russell, a Peer of the Called Kingdom of Crest Britain and Ireland, nn the sixth day of February In the year of our Lord One thousand eight hundred ninety, at the District Parish of Saint reter rimlico, in the County of London, did marry one uuiw orvii, crpuwiCT, im uvr, um ma miki Edith 6ooU, then and there had for hie wife, and that the said Right Honourable John Francis Stanley, Earl Unasell, afterwards and whilst be wss so married to the aid Mabel dilh aa aforesaid, to wit, on the fifteenth April in the year of our Lord On thonsnrid bine hundred, the Riverside Hotel at Reno!

Tho Lord High Steward was rising with the intimation that tho defendant having pleaded guilty, their Lordships would withdraw to consider tho sentence, when Mr. Robson asked permission for 'his client to mako a statement. The Lord Hich Steward said that the aonllca tion should have been made before, but their Lordships would hear. STATEMENT BY EARL BGSSELL.

Earl Russell then said Jly Lords, It is, I need hardly ssy to your Lordahlps, with the utmost reluctance and distaste that I have pleaded guilty to this Indictment; but I have done so on the sdvice of my counsel. And In saying that, my Lords, I do not wish it to be supposed that I reflect for one XOSCOXFORXISTS ASD TEE EDUCATIOSf LORD BILL.

am tow ana 1 must accept it ss a fact that I waa mistaken In supposing that I had a defence to the charge. I thought, my Lords, I had acquired a proper domicile In Nevada, sufficient domicile. I believed, my Lords, in the goodness of that decree in Nersda, and in the ri thteousness of my marriage there. My Lords, I spent in Nersda something like eight months, fcr the purpose of obtaining that decree, and for the' purpose of obtaining that residence which gives one a domicile according to the American law. I should not have spent so lung a time there it I had not supposed that the result of the proceedings would be to give me a valid opportunity of giving a social and legal sanction to a new home.

I am told, my Iiords, that 1 aoi miataken, and I am told so now, not for the first time. When 1 came back from Nevada proceedings for diTorco were instituted by my wife Mabel Kdith, and I waa anxious to defend those proceedings. The charge was one of bigamy sod adultery, and 1 then took the advice cf my counsel, snd I said, I want to set up my decree of my divorce in Nevada aa a defence to that charge." 1 waa then told, ray Lords, that I could not do so mat I could not establiah, to the satisfaction of an Engliah Court, from the point of view of English law, such a change of domicile aa would justify me in setting up that decree. My Lords, for that reason I did not defend those proceedings, snd from thst time I considered thst the decree which I had obtained in America proposed new educational committees there guarantee that the services of the best men for tho work would be secured. Moreover, the effect would be that the constituencies would lose touch with their educational representatives.

He remarked, in conclusion, that they had to light the education battle of 1370 over again. (Cheers.) Dr. Rogers, In moving the first resolution, referred to a recent letter in The Timet iasrl "A Nonconformist Radical," who, he remarked, counselled tnem mat tney were not to enter on a crusade against the voluntary achools. He opened his eyes with amazement when he read that letter. They never proposed to do anything of the kind they had met on that occasion because the voluntary schools had commenced warfare against them.

(Cheers.) The whole object of the Rill, he maintained, was to lessen the inficence of the School boards, which were doing mere for the advancement of tiglind and true Imperialism than the Colonial OOce. (Laughter and cheers.) If they doubted that, the recent speech of Sir John Uorst ou ht to have satisSed them on tho point. (Hear, hear.) What bad the School Hoards done that they should be attacked by the Government It was true that there were small arras in which the School Hoards had not done well, but if the Boards had been eonOnei to those areas he questioned whether the Duke of Devonshire or Sir John uv uum umtv uiuugm ii worm uieir wniie lo siuck ana ue marriage ceremony which i bad gone through in them. (Hear, hear.) It waa the School Hoards, which i 1 I "a reeiiy gooa wors. in educating the people, a I waa in which were the object of the present bitter onslaught! America, and when I first came hack to this country, (Cheers.) These School Hoards had refused to do the neither then nor up till some time after my return to will of the priest, and that was the meaning of the this country did I suppose for one moment that I was attack.

Frank (WT HC SIGHT or THE rAKTV. CrU was in sny spirit of bravado or in sny spirit of defiance that 1 endeavoured to act myself above the laws of mv own country. I did not know, and I venture to say that C8 laymen out of 100 would not know, that under any circumstances a second marriage in a foreign State could be punishable aa bigamy in this country. Still less, my Lords, did 1 think that a second marriage which was valid, and which is at this day undisputed in the State of Nevada, could be the subject of prosecution for bigamy here. My Lords, I am advised I have made a mistake, and I have therefore pleaded guilty and I am baa taken place to marry again, according to the laws of this country, the lsdy with whom I went thronsh the ceremony of marriage in Nevada.

My Lords, 1 shall uieu nave saiisiiea ue laws ot my own country ss well ss the laws of Nsvsda. I shall then have contracted legally that union which I bavo now contracted, not only illegally, but, I am told, criminally. My Lords, I am not alone in being under a misapprehenaion as to the possibility of the ciiminal fleet of marriage under those circumstances. I find even so great an authority as Sir William Anscn, in Lis book, states in a paragraph that murder the onlr odence committed onttltU ih iurisdiction which can bo punished within. My Lords, I have been in England for 13 months, and I have now been orougni to tnai wiuun one month, it Is true, as counsel have told YOU.

that 1 could not have mrremirull defended the domicile. There la much I could have wished to explain to your Lordships which I feel I should not be justified; in explaining now, when no evidence hae been given, and when no opportunity is afforded of testing my statement. Twelve years ago this month, my Lords, when only 23 years of sge, that series of misfortunes began of which this trial to day is the crown. In July. 1PS9.

I was encased to a ladv. mv tmfortucate union with whom Mr. Robson has told you of. This, my Lords, is the end snd the finish of thst unfortunate engagement 13 years ago when I bad not the experience and had not the judgment to guide me which I have scqnired by somewhat bitter experience since. My Lords, I And thst I have mistaken the civil law.as to the validity of my divorce.and I find, quite unexpectedly, and I assure your Lordthlps, without sny knowledge of it at the time, and without any conception of it, that I have made myself amenable to the criminal law of this country.

My Lords, there is no more for me to ssy. I can only now leave myself to the judgment of your Lordships, and I atk. for what indulgence your Lordships see fit to giro me. TJIK SENTENCE. Tho Lord Illeh Steward directed Black Bod to removo tho prisoner, and tho Honso adjourned to tho Chamber of Parliament to consider sentence.

Tho Archbishop of lork. for himself and tho rest of tho Bishops, delivered a nrotestation. which they desired might bo entered. Tho same was read as follows The Lords Spiritual of tho House of Teers do desire leave of thia lloune to be absent when judgment is given upon John Francis Stanley, Karl Russell, saving to them selves and their successors all such right in the Judicature aa they have by law and of right ought to have. Then ho asked leave that they roisht with draw, which bcinR agreed to, they immediately withdrew accordingly.

After about a quarter of an hour interval. tho House resumed in the Koyal Gallery. iiio prisoner having been lirought to the Bar, Tho Lord lligh Steward, in passlnc sentence. said John Francis Stanley, Earl Russell, you have been con victed upon your own confession of felony. I ned not say how painful it is to all their lordships that a groat hiatoric name should be degraded by such a conviction.

At the same time, their Lordships unanimously feel that some of the matters which you have urged are un doubtedly to be seriously considered. While on the one hand it is impossible to pass over an offence which, if trrated with complete levity, might encourage any other offender to do the like, even without tbo provocations which you hare received, on the other hand it is possible that the extreme torture which you have suffered during a long period of time, and of which the judicial records ot thia House give proof, may have provoked you to do that which otherwise you might have avoided. The result is Ibtt, in their Lordships' judgment, we may ao far consider too circumstances of your case that while not entirely passing over the offence, snd while showing that any one who commits that offence ia open to le Cishcd by the criminal law, inasmuch aa on tho other no one desires either to see you degraded or suffer the extreme sentence, uieir irasblps nave unanimously arrived at the conclusion that justice will be satisfied in this case by your being imprisoned in Uolloway for three calendar months, and as a criminal of the first diriaion. That is the sentence. Tho defendant then left In chargo of Captain Butler, tho Yeoman Usher of tho Black Bod.

R. WltYTE. in seconding the TMolnttan. said that the future of the country was being imperilled by Bills of the type they had met to oppose. In commerce to day there was only room for the best, aud how were our people to give of their best if deprived ol a good education (Cheers.) lie remarked that bo waa a diligent atudent of Tie Time, and was uuuit, iii un jiwi wo in lis coiucina, inai Mr.

J. Fitzgerald bad extracted from the School Board report for Movember, 19u0, the total number of pupils uu rnicrai ana siso inoso wno naa received 13 hours or more of instruction in the subjects taught in the evening schools. He dwelt on the important work which, he claimed, thia report ahowed that the evening schools were doing in helping young people who, during the daytime, wcro occupied in earning a livelihood, to qualify themselves for better positions in the community. Mr. Osmomj WiiuaMS, M.P., supported the resolution, and said that in the prescut Bill tho Government were aiming a murderous blow at those interests ot the nation which they were entrusted to aafeguird.

The Ret. Sylvester Hokxe and the Ret. j. Uibst Hollowell baring spoken against the Bill, a gentleman rose in the body of tbo hall and said that if Dr. Guinness Borers had rarefdlr read the latter in The Timu, to which be made allusion, he would not have given such sn erroneous idea of Its meaning aa he had doce that afternoon.

The words voluntary schools were not once used In the letter. His whole object in writing the letter waa to point out that though the higher grade Board schools were doing good work, they were doing it for nothing, and so crowd, log out of existence scores of schools which were kept by members ot their own churches. He alluded to Mr. Aveling'a school at Blackheath a the clasa of school he referred to. That waa the point he desired to bring before hta brother NonconformUU in writing the letter TO THE EDITOR OF THE TIMES.

Sir, No one seems to realize that the Liberal party ef the future will be formed by the coalescence of the Liberal Unionists snd Imperialist Liberals. These two sections are already nearer In alms and sentiment to each other than to the parties with which they are respectively allied, but the exigencies ot the last election compelled the Liberal Unionists to maintain the alliance with the Conservative party. Liberal Colonists with the emphasis on Liberal, of whom there are many thousands look with contempt and disgust on tho present weak Miniatry, and await anxiously the moment when the termination of the war will allow them to transfer their allegiance to their true leaders, of whom Lord Koaebery, be he willing or unwilling, is the chief. Lord Rosebery knows what it is to be in oQce without power. He is st present tho greatest power in the country without being In office, snd, alike whea ha is silent snd when ha speaks, shows the strength of the man who knows how to wait.

There is in tho existing state of things no Liberal party for hita to lead but when the outside pressure, which compacts together a Ministry which has no natural cohesion, ia removed, and the natural affinities of tho two divisions of the real Liberal party are allowed to come Into play. be will be the, man to weld them Into the instrument powerful for good now so greatly needed. Yours obediently, July IS. LIBERAL UNIONIST. in question.

The i resolution waa then carried with arrlimitlnn. Dr. CLirroBU next moved the following resolution inis conierence is entirely opposed to tho evening icbocls minute, and calla for ita withdrawal, on the ground that it extends special privileges to sectarian and private evening achools, and would leave evening schools carried on by the School Boards in an inferior, atarved, and crippled condition. The conference strongly resents the proposal to limit the sge ot evening scholars in Board schools to IS years, while no sge limit ia imposed in the case of sectarian schools. Believing tho Bill and the minute to be opposed to justice and injurious to education, and that they foreshadow tho intention of the Government to destroy School boards and aectarianizo national education, thia conference calls upon Parliament, irre sprctiveof party.to refits its sanction to both measures." lie said that, in hia opinion, the conference was wholly reprcsentatiie of the attitude of Free Churchmen towards the Bill.

(Cheers.) Although a friend had referred to Mr. Aveling as keeping' a private school, he was justified in saying that Mr. Aveling was aa strenuously opposed to the present measure and the minute which accompanied it aa any of them. It was posaibla (hat they might not succeed in their opposition in this encounter, but be waa certain that in the end they were destined' to win. This wss an old fight.

It was really one against the priests, who wero behind the movement. (Cheers.) The Bill was unquestionably a piece of clans legislation, snd sn attempt to make the Board school an annexe of the Establiahed Church. The RET. CorELAXS EowjE seconded the resolution. Dr.

Maccamaua, M.P., also spoke in condemnation of the Bill. The resolution was unanimonslv carried, and tV proceedings terminated with a vote of thanka to the cnairman. A mrctinswas held last nizht in tho nIavrrocmd of Rsver. street Board school, Kewington, convened by the East Lambeth Auociation of the National Union of Teachers, to protest against the destruction of higher grade and evening schools cf the School Board for London." Mr. T.

Coote presided, and was supported bv the Uev. A. W. Jephson and Dr. Mscnamsra, M.P.

Alderman Vernon moved, and Mr. C. Maitermaa seconded, That this meeting of the inhabitants of the borough of Southwark and students of the evening continuation schools situated therein, desires to protest against any legialation which will curtail or cripple the educational privileges hitherto enjoyed by the working classes of London." Dr. Macnamara, M.P., in aupporting the resolution, said that almost the first public utterance of Lord Salisbury after the general election of 1895 was made to a deputation from the National Union of Teachers, which was introduced by the Archbiahop of York and the Archbiahop of Canterbury. They asked him to do certain thlnga with regard to voluntary schools, aod in reply he said that Kruvrui; us grccu wiia um, oui ne would like to see Mr.

Foster's prophecy in 1870 fulfilled that ih Kohii Board rate would never be more than 3d. in the pound, written in figures two feet long over every Board School in the Kingdom. That had been the keynote of the nolle of this Government ever mtimi In i wss the policy of the Government in the matter ot education. The spending of COO millions upon British bayonets waa another question, but unless there were British brains to govern properly after the British bayonets had won it would be of little uaa to the country. The British Consul at Hamburg tad reported that tho immediate mult of peace in South Africa would be the development of German trade in that country.

That was what the Germans anticipated, but surely wo were not prepared to spend 60,000 gallant lives snd 3)0 millions of money for this purpose. In these days the ruling factor of the world was not mere muscle, but brains, and the education of the people was the first line of national defence in any country. The resolution was carried with acclamation. The National Council of the Evangelical Free Churches is exerting itself in opposition to the Education Bill. At a meeting of the education committee On Tuesday, the Rev.

fL If. Jf.H presiding, the following resolutions were passed "This cunuuiiice regrets mas nta Government has attempted to trie the temporary emergency created by the Cockerton judgment to decide, without due discussion, the principle of what should in future be the local education authority. The committee is of opinion that the Bill now before Parliament fails to grant suitable relief to the School Boards in respect of education declared illegal by the Cockerton iodrment. inaanueh it rJ. the work of the School Board at the mercy of the county council, and makes no provision for future expansion.

The committee refuse to treat the policy of the present Bill aa in ssy respect a suitable solution of the educational problema now before tho country." It Is claimed that practically all the 700 local free church councils passed rluJons and otherwise agitated against Education Bill No, snd It ia hoped that similar action ia the case of LducaUoo Bill No. will eontribuu to a similar result.

Sir, May I ask you to allow ma to appeal moat earnestly through your columns to the many who, I feel sure, will welcome, sa opportunity which presents Itself of assisting the new hospital for children now being built ia Clapham road, hennington, the foundation stone of which was laid laat year by her Royal Highness Princess Henry of Battenberg The special reason of my appeal is as follows A of 3,000 has recently been lodged at Messrs. Coutts's Bank under trustees, and may he claimed by the" Belgrave Hospital for Children (Incorporated) if the committee are able to raise another 3,000 by December 31, 1001, in sums of not less than 110. In spite of the numerous sppeals now before the public, I sincerely hope that, in view ef the crying need for a children a hospital amid the poor of South London, the sum required to enable the committee to avail themselves of the offer of 3,000 may be raised.

We haro had the addition to our navsl and military expenses, which were then about SS and are now S3 millions per anaam. We have also had the blaster" in oar relations with foreign Powers snd tho extensions of Empire." The.

only thing ws have not had is ths concession to Ireland of tho right to govera herself. Of the good snd bod alternatives submitted by Mr. Chamberlain we have chosen the latter, and he himself has done more than any on elss to urge the country along ia the course thst has been taken. Is the nation at heart satisfied with the result Neither Lord Rosebery nor Sir Edward Grey says anything about Home Rule. With less discretion, perhaps.

Dr. Heber Hart writes thai ws Imperialists admit the strength of tho Unionist position with regard to Home Rule la Its Gladstoniaa form." As to the form, thers is no doubt that must be changed. Ireland must obtain greater financial relief than Mr. Gladstone) offered. The form of tho next Bill will bo aa adaptation ot the colonial model that has been so suceeasf ul wherever It has been tried but, with this exception, I think no fault can bo found with Mr.

Gladstone's plan. Since it wsa rejected ia 1333 one eighth of tho Irish population baa vanished. The remnant remaining in the country has been further degraded by the growth of pauperism caused by the imposition, against the will of the inhabitants, of nor intolerable fiscal burdens than were ever imposed on any civilized community. Can this go on indefinitely 1 You sre qui to right in saying that the Irish question Is st the root of all Liberal political difficulties. I think, however, you are wrong ia suggesting that the satisfaction of the claim of Ireland is against the development of a true Ideal of Imperialism.

oa tho contrary, agree with Mr. Chamberlain that it will do more than anything else to secure the strength, tho character, and tho laffuocca of the nation. I am. Sir, yours obediently, 49, Ashley gsrdens, S.W., July IS. TUOS.
