ALLEGED ENCROACHMENT I UPON COMMON RIGHTS AT DINAS POWIS. PUBLIC FEELING ON THE MATTER. EXPLANATION BY GENERAL LEE. The announcement published in the Barry Dock Xews last week as to an alleged encroach- ment by Major-General H. H. Lee, J.P., as lord of the manor, upon the common rights at Dinas Powis, by making an 18ft. road over the Common in order to open up his land for building purposes, has aroused a large amount of public interest in the neighbourhood, and there seems to be a strong feeling of determination on the part of the Commoners that the action of the General must be resisted to the utmost. The Commoners admit they gave permission about two years ago for the formation of a road over the Common in the direction of the Southra, but in the present instance General Lee has acted contrary to the advice, and without the sanction, of the Com- moners. The General, they say, is one of the strictest conservators of the Common rights when any. of the Commoners want a concession, but now he has not scrupled to encroach upon the manorial lands without even asking the per- mission of the interested parties. On the other hand, General Lee maintains that, as lord of the manor, he had a right to construct the road in question, and is of opinion that it will materially benefit the district. It it now understood that Mrs Jenner, of Wenvoe Castle, as lady of the manor, and the Commoners will take joirt action, and insist upon their ancestral rights being respected and the land in dispute restored to its original condition as part of the Common.

BARRY CARPENTERS AND JOINERS AND THEIR EMPLOYERS. THE STRAINED RELATIONS BECOMING MORE STRAINED. THE EMPLOYERS IGNORE THE MEN. The master builders of the Barry district having persistently refused to meet the representatives of the carpenters and joiners in their employ in mutual conference to discuss the new points of the men's code of working rules, there, seems to be a decided probability that the present dispute will result in a strike. The men arranged a conference of both sides to be held on Thursday evening last at Harry's Restaurant, Barry Dock, but although the whole of the employers promised to attend, not one put in an appearance, and the attempt at an amicable arrangement in the matter proved utterly abortive, although the men were prepared to grant reasonable concessions in their demands. On Saturday evening a mass meeting of the men was held at the Victoria Hotel, and after a lengthy discussion it was unanimously resolved that the meeting bind itself to abide by the terms of the code of working rules asked for by the men. The meeting, which was largely attended, was enthusi- astic and unanimous. The extraordinary attitude taken up by the employers is freely criticised in the district, and public feeling is strongly in favour of the men,

CHURCH DEFENCE AT BARRY. PUBLIC MEETING AT THE MARKET- HALL. MR. H. BYRON REED ON THE DISESTAB- LISHMENT AND DISENDOWMENT BILL. [S THE CHURCH IN WALES AN ALIEN CHURCH? In consequence of the recent introduction into Parliament of a measure for the Disestablishment and Disendowment of the Church in Wales, a public meeting, which was well-attended by Churchpeople and Non- conformists, was held on Wednesday evening last at the Market-hall, Barry, for the purpose of hearing an address from Mr H. Byron Reed, J.P., an ex-M.P., and a gentleman who is regarded to be one of the most formid- a.ble and eloquent Church defence lecturers in the country. Notwithstanding the fact that it was evident from the outset that there was a numerous contrary element present, the speakers were listened to with perfect fairness, and the meeting, therefore, was of a successful character. The chair was occupied by County Councillor O. H. Jones, J.P., Fonmon Castle, and amongst those present were the Rev Canon Allen, M.A., rector of Barry Revs E. Morgan, B.A., vicar of Penmark E. Morris, B.A., rector of Cadoxton J. Price, St. Paul's, Barry J. Du Heaume, B.A., Barry and J. H. Evans, Cadoxton Mr R. A. Sprent, Mr E. S. Johnson, Mr and Mrs W. H. Miller, Mrs Price, Mr and Mrs A. Jackson, Mr R. S. Robinson, C.E., the Misses Woods, Misses Allen, Mr and Mrs Ashmore, Dr Powell, Mr E. Makepeace, Mr C. A. Makepeace, Mrs and Miss Whall, Mrs Neale, Mr and Mrs M. Nicholas, Messrs T. Martin, D. Lloyd, E. Lloyd, J. Jones, D. W. Thomas, Jenkin Lloyd, L. Molineaux, B. Thomas. &c. The Chairman opened the proceedings by asking the audience to extend to Mr Byron Reed a fair and patient hearing, and announced that any questions put to that gentleman afterwards would be readily answered. The position of the Church in Wales, he said, was different now to what it had ever been before. Last year an attempt was made to introduce a measure which was a preliminary to a Disestablishment and Disendow- ment Bill. That measure, he was happy to state, was defeated, but now the question had been brought forward in an open manner, and, there- fore, they were all aware of what was intended to be done, and what they had to fight for. He considered every Churchman, and also, he hoped he might say, a great-many others who were not Churchmen, would give to the Bill an uncompromising opposi- tion in every part and parcel of its details. The question was one of principle, for it was proposed to sever the connection between the Church and the State, which had existed so long as there had been a State in this country. It was proposed to take away from the Church its property, which he asserted—and which he defied anyone to prove to the contrary—belonged to her, and not given by the State, but rather by the generosity of pious individuals from time to time. If there had been any State interference at all in connec- tion with the endowments of the Church, it was merely the regulation of their application and otherwise in the same manner as the State had interferred with the en- dowments of Nonconforming bodies. He (Mr Jones) did not intend entering at any length into the question on that occasion, but he did say he hoped that in fighting this question the struggle would be carried on in a manner worthy the traditions of Churchmen and Christians, and how- ever much they might be opposed to each other he trusted the motive as well as the actions of the promoter^ of the measure would be thoroughly enquired into; (Cheers.) There was no necessity to impute bad motives. That was not the point, but the principle which was involved, and it was this they should enquire into—whether this was good or not. (Applause.) The Chairman then in. troduced Mr Byron Reed to the assembly. Mr H. Bytpn Reed, on rising to address the gathering, was received, with loud and prolonged cheery He said he need offer no apology to aceflrunt for that meeting. He had been invited to come to Barry to deliver an address on the Disestiablishment and Disendowment Bill for Wales. This was a subject which was exciting a good deal of controversy in and out of Parlia- ment, and they were, therefore, quite justified, indeed they were only doing their duty, in dis- cuasing its provisions in all parts of the Princi- pality. (Cheers). He had come to Barry to put in a plea for the good old mother Church in Wales, and to ask her friends to rally round and defend her against the present attack, which by and bye might also be levelled against the Nonconformist churches of Wales. It was alleged that the Church in Wales and England were two churches. This he denied, for the four dioceses in Wales were four sees of the National Church in Britain, suffragan to the see of Canterbury, and the. history, constitution, and laws of the country knew no distinction whatever between the Church in the Welsh and the Church in the English counties. He had a very high authority for this. He meant the authority of the Right Hon. W. E. Glad- stone, who, speaking in the House of Commons some years ago, made use of the memorable expression. There is a complete ecclasiastical, constitutional, legal, and. I may add, for every practical purpose, historical identity between the Church in Wales and the rest of the Church of England." (Ap- plause.) They were now, therefore, dealing with a portion of the whole Church of the whole country. The Disestablishment question in Wales to-day would, doubtless, be brought against the Church in England to-morrow. This would have been done before, but the Liberal party were afraid of the security of the Church in England by the votes of the people at the polling booths. If there was any difference at all between the Church in Wales and the Church in England it was a difference on the side of the Church in Wales, for while the Church in England was over- run with paganism, and Church influence in the earlier days of the Christian era was broken down by the pagan Saxons, Christianity survived in the Principality of Wales in fact, Wales was never subjugated or paganised by the Saxon, but succeeded in maintaining the Church creed and religious organisations right through the dark pages of paganism in Christian England. (Applause.) The Church in Wales was a more ancient Church, and, therefore, a. more reverent Church than the Church in the English counties. (Renewed cheers.) The Church in England and Wales was also supported by the same means. The revenues of the Church were two-fold, derived partly from the generous donations of Church people in days gone by, extending back for many hundreds of years; and in a great part by the liberality of Churchpeople in our own times. whereby cathedrals had been rebuilt and renovated, parish churches had been restored, schools built. livings had been broken up into more adaptable organisations for the doing of the Church's work, through the free-will gifts and munificence of its members. (Cheers.) He, therefore, claimed for the Church in England and Wales, not two Churches, but one Church, with an organisation identical and revenues obtained in the same way. Every argument, therefore, in regard to the Church in Wales applied with equal force to the Church in England, and his point was to impress upon his hearers the unity, identity, and, he hoped, the indivisibility of the Church in England and Wales. (Loud applause.) Mr Byron Reed went on to criticise the principal points in the Bill, which had just been introduced by Her Majesty's present Home Secretary, Mr Asquith, and he was bound to say, after reading the Home Secretary's speech oa the occasion, that Mr Asquith had but to a small extent grasped the scope and importance of his own measure and still less to have understood the keen, warm, still less to have understood the keen, warm, religious feelings of the Churchpeople whom the measure would unquestionably wound and injure. (Hear, hear.) He (Mr Reed) would have Mr Asquith. know that Churchpeople were not to be disposed of so easily. They were not going to have their sympathies of the past. their noble traditions, and glorious work-evidence of which was shown from one end of the land to the other -destroyed so easily as the hon. gentleman occu- pying a seat on the front bench anticipated, and he ventured to predict that ere long Mr Asquith would deeply repent his present action against the Churchpeople of Wales. (Loud applause.) The Bill was intended to dislocate the organisation of the Church in Wales, and for sowing religious strife and discord throughout the Principality. He had tried in vain to discover one point in the measure which would benefit any living man, woman, or child.-(Canon Alien Hear, hear.)- He saw nothing in it which would improve the material condition of any individual, which would raise the legal status of any religous body he saw nothing in it save and except proposals for breaking up a religious organisation about which even its enemies admitted that it was doinsr good work to-day. He saw no single provision which would make any Nonconformist the freer, or any citizen the happier or more prosperous by its operation. The Bill had been introduced by the Government because of party expediency. They had a narrow majority and certain Welsh representatives held a pistol at their head and declared that if a Disestablishment Bill was not introduced they would turn them out of office. Therefore the Church in Wales had to be butchered to make a holiday for Mr Lloyd George and his colleagues. But the Bill would never become law; he did not suppose it was ever meant to become law. He was told that Disestablishment in Wdes was demanded in the interests of justice but he asked for a case to be specified in which Noncon- formists-body or individuals—were dealt with unfairly by the law as compared with Church- people at the present time. He warned his hearers that if once the demon of gpoliation was let loose under the euphemistic title of Church Disendow- ment, that same demon would not be sated by the plunder of the Church, bat would turn to gorge itself upon the possessions of Nonconformist bodies. The spirit which to-day would make havoc of churches would by-and-bye make havoc of chapels. The speaker entered into the main clauses of the Bill. and referred to the effects which would be produced upon poor country parishes, which, he said, while they would still pay tithes, would lose their churches and their clergy. The sum of £40,000 which was paid annually into Wales by the Ecclesiastical Commissioners would be lost to the Principality under the Bill. This amount came from the counties in England, and it was not likely that it would be handed over to be played ducks and drakes with by the County Couacils and other secular bodies aud recognising this, Mr Asquith had admitted that the £40,000 a year would no longer be paid over to Wales. The Government, by this Bill, were endeavouring to disfavour one religious body, and that the most ancient and noble, and would like to take its possessions. (Hear, hear.) In the name of com- mon honesty and fair play, where did the consis- tency come in: (Applause.) The Church and Nonconformity had started on a level, the only difference being that the Church was in the field many hundreds of years before. (Laughter and cheers.) Mr Reed proceeded to explain that the law dealt fairly with both bodies. Churchmen and Nonconformists, he added, were entitled to the protection of the strong right arm of the secular law. (Hear, hear.) The clergymen of the Church k-r' certain privileges and certain dis- abilities. One of the privileges of the Church of England was that the clergy were not liable to serve on a jury. The same law protected the Non- conformist minister, and both were entitled to fill the highest office of the state with the exception of the position of Lord High Chancellor of England, a post which Nonconformists must not occupy. By the votes of a constituency a Non- conformist minister could sit in the House of Commons, but • this privilege was not enjoyed by the Church, this being, however, counterbalanced by the right of bishops to sit as barons in the House of Lords. (Hisses and cheers.) Hissing, the speaker said, did not alter facts—(loud ap- plause)—and he should like to know where the inequality between Churchmen and Nonconform- ists came in. (Cheers.) People wanted to T and disestablish a religious organisation that had done them no harm, but was willing, if UMJ wou^ allow it, to do them and their children a great deal of good, as it had done to their forefathers. (Continued cheers.) xhey wanted to wound, cripple, dislocate, upset, "W- worry, and plunder the noble institution which ha.d accomplished so much good for the people. (Renewed applause.) It would do to them, as Nonconformists, no good, but it was said they wanted the Bill passed for the benefit of the Church. (Hear, hear.) The Church was not obliged to them for that. (Laughter.) Did it not occur to them, with even a dim glimmer of the light of common intelligence, that Church people knew their own affairs better than they (Cheers.) They wanted to do the Church good. Was this to be done by pulling the churches down about the ears of the people ? Would they make Church- people more respectable by stripping them naked ? -humbler by making them poorer? (Cries of No, and applause.) If the Church was crippled its philanthropic work would come to an end, and yet it was said that by the passing of the Disestablishment Bill they wanted to do the Church good. (Laughter and "Hear, hear.") The insinuation added insult to injury. (Cheers.) History taught that the spirit of plunder, once let loose, was a very difficult element to exorcise, and would attack the strongest, as well as the weakest. They would admit that the Church in Wales was never more active for good work than it was to- day, and in the House of Commons this had been admitted by Mr Gladstone himself, who had said the Church in Wales was an active and a living Church. (Cheers.) If the Church was busy, it was unfair, unjust, unmanly, and dishonest to thus attack it, and in the long run the same weapon for destroying would recoil against those who used it. (Hear, hear.) He would ask whether this was the time to sacrifice such a noble institution? ("No.") Mr Reed said the Archbishop of Canterbury had only recently declared this crisis of the Church was the gravest that had occurred in her history. Churchmen must, therefore, enter into the fight with great strength and complete organisation. (Cheers.) The speaker added the Church in Wales was much poorer than in England, but whether in Cardiganshire, Glamorganshire, or in Northumber- land it was the same old Church, with the same history and noble career, the same bright list of scholars and divines—one and the same Church— and the enemy could depend upon it that if this Church was subjected to the raids of the spoilers, many hundreds of Englishmen and Welshmen would know the reason why. (Cheers.) He trusted the fight would bo conducted with respect and in a gentlemanly spirit, but be could tell them that the defence of the Church would be a stubborn, stout, and strong one—and "May God defend the right." (Loud and pro- longed cheering ) The Chairman invited questions from the audience, when Mr Makepeace asked what would be the cost to the people of Wales to educate the children who were now being educated at the Church schools, but Mr Byron Heed replied he could not say. Mr Morgan Nicholas, a. member of the Burial Board, ascended the platform, and asked when the ecclesiastical baronies were created. Mr Byron Reed said he did not understand the speaker, the questiop- being put somewhat inaudibly. Mr Nicholas, however, did not repeat the ques- tion, but asked whether a clergyman could not at will enter a dissenting place of worship and conduct a funeral service therein without the con- sent of the pastor ? (Cheers.) Mr Byron Reed I don't think so. (Hear, hear.) Rev Canon Allen No, certainly not. (Applause). Mr Byron Reed No more than a dissenting minister can officiate in Church without the con- sent of the clergyman. (Cheers.) .Y Mr Nicholas then asked why should bishops be allowed a seat in the House of Lords when dissenting ministers were prohibited Mr Byron Reed Bishops have no peats in the Upper House in their capacity as bishops but as barons of the sec. Mr Nicholas But if they were not bishops they would not have seats in the House of Lords. (Applause.) Mr Byron Reed No. (Cheers and counter cheers.) On resuming his seat, Mr Nicholas said his questions had not been answered fairly, but Mr Byron Reed replied he thought the remark was an ungracious one. If the questioner did not like the answers given it was not his fault. (Applause and hisses.) Proceeding, Mr Reed challenged Mr Nicholas to repeat his questions, and he would again answer them, but Mr Nicholas would not accept the same. There being no response to the chairman's appeal for further questions. The Rev Canon Allen proposed a vote of thanks to Mr Byron Reed for his masterly, instructive, and good-humoured address, and said he hoped every word uttered by that gentleman would be carefully considered. The disestablishment of the Church. Canon Allen said, would have one very serious effect, that of creating a lasting feeling of enmity and hostility between the Church and Noncon- formity. Whatever happened, however, the Church could never be deprived of its noble posi- tion of pious antiquity and sacred prestige. In robbing the Church of its rights and privileges they would not be robbing the clergy, but the poor, of the blessings they had freely enjoyed for so many centuries. (Loud applause.) As a. patriotic Welshman and an advanced Liberal, therefore, he said most earnestly-and he would say it on his knees if necessary—" Go no further with this rash, mischievous, and unjust measure." (Renewed applause.) Mr E. Makepeace seconded the resolution, and it was carried with acclamation. Mr Byron Reed- in replying, proposing a similar compliment to the chairman for so ably presiding. Rev E. Morg-an, Penmark, seconded, and in doing so said he had just been supplied by Mr Sprent with the information asked for by Mr Makepeace. There were 86.000 children in Wales taught in the Church schools at an estimated cost of L2 4s 6d per head, representing a total cost of £191,000 per annum, a sum which would have to be found by the ratepayers of the country if Churchpeople. in the event of disestablishment and disendowmenr, taking place, withdrawing their voluntary offer- ings towards educational purposes. The rev gentleman proceeded to observe that if the Crmrch were disendowed by law she would again be endowed, a remark which called forth enthusiastic applause, and Mr Morgan went on to speak of the ^tter lack of the idea of external umty which characterised the relations o £ Nonconformity a system founded in disunion, but his remarks at this stage were consider- ably interrupted by hisses, mingled with applause, by the audience, Mr Morgan remarking that he spoke respectfully, and only desired to point out the real positioa of things amongst the dissenting bodies in the country. Nonconformists could never establish the parish system throughout the country like that of the Church because they had not the unity in their blood and bones. They were founded in disunion. (Shame and derisive laughter.) He meant they had not the external unity which the Church possessed, because they did not believe in it. (Applause and hisses.) Acknowledging the vote of thanks, the Chair- man said to preside at that gathering had been a privilege and pleasure to him. and thanked the audience for the courteous attention given to the address of Mr Byron Reed, their good behaviour, he said, being characteristic of the people of Barrv. (Cheers.) The meeting closed with singing the National Anthem.

There seems likely to be trouble in connection with the Vanduira between underwriters and owners. The Yanduara, it will be remembered, got badly ashore on Barry Island, and wa-i cleverly salved by the Glasgow Salvage Association and taken. into B.u-ry. Her iuiuries, however, are so extensive that the owners claim a total loss. Notice of abandonment hfK consequently been given, which, notice underwriters do nor, accept, and intend tõ resist the clairn ortfitall(isi. It is not imnrobable that the question will have to be decided in a. court. of law. LAST WEEK'S SHIPMENTS AT BARRY DOCK.
