ARCHDEACON'S APPEAL.

WOMEN, STRUGGLE TO ENTER COURT ROOM.

CONFLICTING EVIDENCE

LONDON, April 18. There were extraordinary scenes at today's closing stages of Archdea- con Wakeford's appeal to the Privy Council. A crowd, chiefly composed of well-dressed women, besieged the entrance to the court room and wildly struggled to gam admission. The evidence at the past few hearings haa been very conflicting and bewildering. Sir Edward Carson to-day in an eloquent final address dissected the prosecution's evidence with a view to showing that many of the witnesses' statements were mendacious or otherwise entirely untrustworthy. He submitted that the hotel books were dishonest and declared that the alleged woman with Archdeacon" Wakeford was a myth. After Mr. Douglas Hogg, K.C., had replied, the court deferred judgment until April 26,

EMPIRE LAND SETTLEME IT.

A QUESTION FOR THE IMPERIAL CONFERENCE.

LONDON, April 18.

Replying to questions in the House of Commons Colonel Amery stated that it was proposed that the meeting of empire prime ministers in June should discuss the question of the adoption of a comprehensive policy of empire land settlement, and empire directed emigration on a basis of co- operation between the imperial and dominion governments. Any such policy would doubtless include provision for assisted passages for approved classes of settlers. He emphasised that the Colorial Office took special care that nobody was encouraged to go to any dominion where there was unemploy .ment in his trade.
