"As I understamd this proâ€" position, it is simply to have two autoâ€" crats instead of one," said Dr. Alison, amid laughter, in which Dr. Sutherliand joined, rising and bowing profusely. Dr. Allison moved that the proposal, which he described as a hybrid mongrel, be reâ€" ferred to a commission to report at next Conference.

Dr. Sutherland went on to say that the first step in getting a new policy was to make people dissatisfied with the policy they had. Dr. Sutherland turmned to the conditions of his service in the last two years, and â€"said that at times everything he had proposed was antagonized by the board. _ They tried simply to antagonâ€" ize, to hamper and to cripple him, either openly or by referring his proposals to the committee for quiet death. "The situation has become intolerâ€" able," he said, "and if that system is adopted by this Conference I would not stay another hour, and nothing would compel me to do so. _ My salary was eut Jown by $500, although I had a salary of more than double the amount open to me at that very hour if 1 chose to take it. 1 stayed on the half salâ€" ary Lbeeause I loved the work and beâ€" cause I thought it was my duty, but there must be some game somewhere.

Dr. Potts praised the work of Mr. Shearer and Mr. Moore, who were most capable secretaries, and of Mr. Macpherson, solicitor of the Alliâ€" ance.

She adâ€" mitted that she had no documents to prove her charge; but she said that a lady member of the Cecil family had confessed to her the guilt of Lady Gwenâ€" dolen. The jury found the libels untrue and that the plea of justification entered by the defendant had not been proved. Mrs. Stanley was sentenced to six months‘ imprisonment and the documents in the case were ordered sent to the Public Prosecutor, to ascertain whether the auâ€" thor should not be /pmecuted. _ The witnesses Mrs. Stanley called adâ€" duced nothing to substantiate the allegaâ€" tions made in the pamphlet. . The defendant, who conducted _ her own case, crossâ€"examined Lady Cecil, the latter maintaining that she had had no child, and strenuously denying the alleged intimacy with the chaplain. Mrs. Stanley, after first supplying the jury with copies of the pamphlet, addressed the court. She asserted in a rambling manner that she had been the victim of a loathsome libel for 14 years, and that, in consequence, she had lost places and had suffered terribly. 1 § Lady#Cwendolen Cecil testified that she remembered the defendant as an organist. _ She said that in August last one of her brothers showed her the pamphlet. _ She denied absolutely that there was any truth in the allegations made in it. The defendant‘s father had been emâ€" ployed for years by the late Marquis of Salisbury, and she had acted as organist at the daily services at Hatfield House. Mr. Giill cited several acts of kindness the Cecil family had shown her. They had even helped her in obtaining a church living for her husband. Police Inspector Drew testified that 15,000 copies of the pamphlet had been found in the "defendant‘s possession. . Mr. Gill said that the libels were the culmination of a series of _ wild stateâ€" ments and wild attacks against all sorts of persons extending over several years, and directed against anyone from whom the accused was unable to obtain money. In another leaflet Mrs. Stanley . exâ€" plicitly names Lady Cecil as the lady for whom she had been made the scape: goat. Charles Giill, K. C., conducted the proâ€" secution. In opening the case he said the libel was contained in pamphlets pubâ€" lished by the dgfendant, headed: "The Matfield Business. _ The Cecil _ Plot. Astomiding Revelations. Great is the Truth and in the End it Will Prevail." A paragraph in the pamphlet was read, as follows: A scandal arose between the chaplain ofi Hatfied House and the lady of the household, who was a member of the Cecil family. It appears that in 1890 this lady gave birth to a child, of whom it ‘was alleged this chaplain was _ the futher; and, in order to shield this lady, the pareniage of this child hbas been inâ€" famously attributed to me and tradesâ€" men‘s bills have been made uot in my name.
