She expected to get paid for her attendance as a witness, as she had boert brought from Whangarei to attend the trial.—Dr. Mac donald swore that David Clements (land lord of the Black Bull Hotoll.who had been subpomaed as a (witness, was suffering from ocute sciatica, and therefore unable to attend the Court. — Mrs Gibson, William Gibson, gardener of St. John's College, and George Birch also «aye evidence. The last named witness deposed that at twenty minutes past twelve on the night of the fire he, in company with his wife and Gitoon called at Merrick's to enquire after the children, The shop was closed, and the door wan not opened until his wife had knocked thrice. Then Mr Merrick opened the door, and in answer to Mrs Birch's enquiry, said that his wife and the children had gone down to the wharf, and that he was just about to follow them. Witness then crossed over tho street to the Foresters' Arms Hotel, leaving his wife and Mr Gibson waiting for him. lie was not away longer than a minute, or *. minute and a half; and when he returned, Gibson diew Ins attention to the fact that dark, heavy tmoka was isMiiog in volumes from both the tront and back windows of Memck'epremise* -John Hughes, Superintendent of the Fire Brigade, was then sworn. He de posed that on proceeding to the fare in Merrick's premises on the.morning of the Ist of January, ho noticed that the smoke was very b!ack, and that it issued from the building in dense volumes. • After the Hames had been quenched, he perceived a strong smell of kerosene. The place re mained in charge of Captain Butler and his Salvago Corps until the following morning, when witness inspected the premises. He found traces of some inflammable substance on the shop lloor,so placed as to suggest the theory that tho material had been thrown there' from tho back sitting-room. The flooring of this room was greatly charred in a similar way. Traces of fire another were found in the pnssage ttp-9tairs, and stains of grea?e were dis covered in the two front rooms. He could account for these things in no other way than that aorac inflammable stuff had been poured upon tbe floors and then ignited. There wero no chimney-places in near proximity to tho scats oi the various out breaks.

[ tIY TELK-RAPH.—OWN CORRESPONDENT,

In tbe absence of Doctors Waddington and Cuahney, Mr Hughes, chemist, went, and found tho woman suffering from a cut on the head, extending from the occiput to the forehead. The left arm was broken above the wrist. It was rumoured that her husband had inflicted the injuries with a sword. Mr Hughes temporarily attended to injuries, and informed the police. Sergeants Chilly and Forster, of the A.C, went over when the woman denied that bet husband had assaulted ber, and said the injuries were inflicted by herself fall ing about when intoxicated. Marrissey ac knowledged hitting her with a piece of wood. The woman's position is critical.

THE WAYMOUTH DRINK SUPPLYING CASE.

Important Decision,

AT the conclusion of the Police Coutt thia morning, Mr Macdonald, R.M., Rave judg ment in a case in whicli a mon named Maxwell was charged with procuring liquor tor one Way month, contrary to an order made in accordance with the provisions ot the new Licensing Act. His Worship, in giving judgment, said : This ease turns upon the proper construction Of the Licensing Aot, 1881, whero it onactß Seo. 107. When it Bhall be raado to appear in open Court that any porson, by e.o.Bßive drink ing of liquor, mia^pendfl, wasteß or lessens his or her estate, or greatly Ujareß hia or her health or endangers or intern., ts thenet-.oeand happlncaa ol his or tor family.the Justices presid ing in suon court bii-li, by writing under the haudsof any twoSuch.Ußtioeß.forbidanylicensed person to Bell hlni or her any liquor lor the space of one year, aud suoh Justices, or any other two Justices, may, at the samo or any other time. In liko manner, foi bid the selling ot anyßueh liquor to tho B.id drunkard by any such licensed persona of any other city, town or dlstriot to whioh the drunkard shall or may ba Ukely to resort for the same, and Sec 169. Whenever Juitioes Bhall, In execu tion of the foregoing provisions, have pro hibited the sale of liquor to any Buoh drunkard. If any oi'.her person snail, with a knowledge ot snoh prohibition, give, sell, purchase, or procure for or on behalf of eueh prohibited per son or for hia or her use, any Buoh liquor, he or she'shall forfeit upon conviction for every such efl'ence. a Bum not exceeding five pounda. The facts simple and undisputed are aa foi under Section 167 an Order was allowed aa to one J.W., thinking because of that port ot tho seotion following the wordß "such Jnstlceß," an ordor ought not to be general. Counsel acting in the matter desired to and did have the order in such form that Its operation was confined io oortain (therein Bpeolflsd) licensing districts. Buoh order being unexpired, defendant sup pied liquor toJ.W.. having at the time full knowledga ot the order and of tho identity of J.W. with the J W. named therein. This supply happened on board a steamer Dlyiog on a river, the liquor being procured by defendant from tbe holder of a pac.et liense lasuod in reaped of the steamer. The holder ot Buch packet license, with full knowledge of the order even, could have legally supplied the liquor to J; W. at the time; tor not only waa the steamer outside the specified licensing districts, but tho Bites of|rivera appear in aome oases to ho In a manner " extra paroohlal," and altogether outside llcanfling districts. The defendant was not a licensed person at all. it waa contended for tho prosecu tion that he having knowledge of the order and of J.W.s identity, waa liable to a penalty for supplying the liquor, inas much aa by seotion 169, suoh penalty attached to all persona with knowledge of the prohibi tion throughout the colony.quite apart from the geographical limits of tho district to whioh the order itself is confined. On the other hand, Mr Maokechnle, for the defence, maintained that seo. 169 was simply to aid In giving effect to section 167 by preventing liquor b»ing con veyed from the prohibited publican by an Intermediate hand to the prohibited con sumer, and argued that it would be absurd to nuninh a man for handing liquor from a non-prohibited publican to a there non-prohibited cohaumer, when It was not an offence fo." suoh publican to aupply it direct. To thia not unreasonable contention Mr Coiper replied "No matter about reason or absurdity. there are the words any person as used in seo. 169 and If you do not deoide in my favour, I shall appeal," apparently thtnking such an nouncement, I will not say threat, added to the forco of an argument aot without intrinßlo weight. Bince the hearing a gentleman has appealed, not from, but to mo, in a letter show ing him much interested in toetotalism in general, or in John Weymouth in particular. Thia writer, after fumiehlng some good, sound law upon the proper construction of Bta tutea aa delivered, he tells me, by Jeßsel, Master of the Rolls, reported in I.R. xvi). 750 and approved ot in the " Alliance News," goes on to state that he writes without the knowledge of the solicitor in tbe oase (which is easily to be believed), and concludes with an assurance, conditioned, however, upon my using tho vlewa suggested, ''aB he expeots.' that the faot of my having received hia aid shall never.be divulged by him. I think everyone must a. rae with Mr Maokeohnie as to the absurdity of making a go-between liable whore the publioan would not be, and the case quoted by my unnamed correspondent lays it down as the latest and most authoritative rule for the construction of Btatuteß that "tho grammatical and ordinary Benae of word 3 mar be modified so as to avoid an absurdity, it tho words are BUl_olentiT flexible to admit of euoh modification." Mr Cooper would not, lt may be assumed, question that ruling, but hia con tention might Btlll ba that the words "ony person " in seo. 169 are too inflexible to be tam oered wlth.even to avoid a resulting absurdity. But he. himself, dared not, for fear of ignoring the latter part of tho sec, rely on tho inflexi bility of tho same two words as used in tho earlier part of seo. 167, and so drafted and took his order in alimitcd form instead of addressing it to all licensed persons, as the earlier part of the sec. would seem to warrant. It may be Contended that flexibility waa necessary as to the words when used in sec. 167 to prevent tho latter part of the sec. being left without mean ing or efl-«. but then, as tho order was pro. mred and adhered to. that same flexibility _ necessary to sec. 169 to -void its being i_ado to enact that, an agent shall be liable where the principal » not; that the accessory shall be guilty whero ho crime exists in the principal, or that A may not supply from mistaken kindness, while B. mar do so for profit. This argument is, how ever only upon the form of order as prepared. __en tethat form in accordance with the sec. (167. for if not. it docs not afford a proper pre mis. Accepting ib as not bo n_ In such form, it Kfollows that, while thclaw dis favours such things it is obvious that to .Prevent the largos consumers being supplied in Auck and North Would- tend to monopoly in Andkland South or according to the tendency of thisparticular order to drive trado froth tho south to tho north shores, or, as it might be, to drive all the largest consumers to the perhaps only pnrjiio houso in the only district in a wldo area, skil fully left unnamed in a series or orders naming- ' the•" most habitual customers. Does not tho matter then come to this—it tho Words 'any person' are to be taken as so flexible in sec. 167 as to preserve any effect to the 1 attCrpart of that sec. then there ought to Bo allowed such flexibility in sec. 169 as to pre clude an absurdity, while if inflexible in sec. 169 they ought to be so held in sec. 167. and the order should have been directed to generally and not to partioular districts with tho resulting illegal tendency pointed out, and when it is Said that tho absurdity suggested by Mr Mackechnie only arises on a comparison of tho effect Of sec. 169 with the order'and not with with any sec. of the Act, thero is this to be replied, that the (my) order ia not) only contrary to -the sec but, so contrary in the very vicious respect of tending to a monopoly, and is therefore had, and in cither case the defendant escapes, for of course the order under sec 167 mentioned In sec. 169 means a feood order. Case dismissed. Mr Mackechnie applied for costs. His Worship refused to grant the appli cation.

WELLINGTON, this day. MR WHITAKER TO BE SENT FOR.

Full History of the Ministerial Crisis.

(PER PRESS ASSOCIATION.)

WELLINGTON, this day. Tne following is an accurate account of the Ministerial crisis : — A very important member of the Government telegraphed his resignation to Mr Hall on the 31st ult., and on the same day Mr Hall received what he supposed to be an intimation that another of his colleagues would also retire. Mr Hall's health had been feeble for some time, and this intelligence, coupled with excess of illness led him to telegraph his re signation to the Governor. His Excell ency had some months since pointed out his doubts as to whether the Government possessed a majority in the new Parlia ment, and had urged its immediate assembly for the decision of that point. When, therefore, Mr Hall's Ministry resigned, the Governor felt it necessary, before commissioning any person to form a new Government, to ascertain more closely the actual state of parties. This information, on the one hand, he was nble to obtain from Mr Hall, and, on the other, he sought it from Sir George Grey, leader of the Opposition in the lato Parliament, nnd head of the Ministry which preceded that of Mr Halls. Having received full information of the strength of both parties, according to their own estimate, he has come to the conclusion that the parties are so evenly balanced that renders it impossible to. say which possesses the confidence of tbe legislature. Under these circum stances His Excellency thinks that the benefit of the doubt should be given to those in office, and he has sent for the Attorney-General, Mr Whi taker, to reconstruct the Government. The Hinemoa leaves to-night to bring Mr Whitaker to Wellington.

AUSTRALIAN JOCKEY CLUB RACES

An interchange of essays will take place this evening between the Baptist and St. James's Mutual Associations, Mr E. West of the latter association reading^ a paper on "War" before the Baptist Society, the representative of which (Mr Thomas Craneh) will read a paper on " War : Its hise and Progress" before St, James's. The decision of the umpire whether a boat race' is legal after dark' as^ affecting Saturday's contest will be awaited with much intere-t. Some persons say that the Melbourne yacht race in which the Tanj wh_ came' in second was analogous, hut it can hardly be considered bo. . In the race op Saturday a dead calm prevailed, and when coming towards the flag-ship the tide was against the boats; Nothing prevented them paddling lip had they then so desired, indeed/ few persons/ can understand hoW they could get upjwithont. In Melbourne, it must be remembered, the race was for lante yachts, whose progress could not be assisted by paddling. There also was a good breeze and a long straight cruise, so that the race must have been fair. There is therefore no analogy whatever. Seeing that so much suspicion has been thrown on the action of those in the Imp, we think it would be a gentlemanly action for the owners of that boat to agree that the race be run over. This would take'a lot of responsibility from off the shoulder, of the committeemen and create a more kindly i feeling among the various boat-owners.

Martin's Black Horse Hotel, next Sunny side Asylum, was burglariously entered, and an iron safe containing about £300 and several deeds was carried off from a room opening on to the bar. An examination of the premises leads to the belief that an entrance was effected through a window, and that the bar door was opened from the inside. The safe must have been taken through the door, and there aro indications of it having been rolled over and over from the door, to a cart, in which it was carried away. A cart belonging to a farmer, named James Car rick, which had been left opposite the hotel on the previous night, is now niisßhijr, and a horse too, belongiug to Mr Martin s son-in-law, which, it is believed, was used in the cart, was, yesterday afternoon, found, by the police, on the South Town Belt.

THE SAILING RACE.

SERIOUS € El ARC! ES AGAINST TBE IHP. Our account of the twenty feet open-sailing boat race whleb|appeared In Saturday evening's Star, left the competitors proceeding towards the flag-boat, which was rounded for the first time In the following :order:-Tr_nslt, 3b. 65m. 23b. ; Imp, 3h. 57m. 50j. ; Empress, lh. im. 20b. ; Observer. ih. 6m. Os; Madge, 4h. Dm. Od.; Kunlce, Ih, 6m. 10b. The wind, whioh during the afternoon had been very light, felltoalrooßt a calm, and the boats, although favoured with the ebb tide, made very slow progress. Round inz the Mandspit buoy, tbe Imp and Transit, wnlch remained the leading boats, were be calmed, and allowed several of the others to oome close up, the Observer assuming the weather position, ihe Madge pressing her vory hard. Suddenly the Observer waß Been to drop from Unit position to almost laat, and a. cry was raised on the wharf, where several persons wore watching the race with glosses, "Tho Observer, fouled tho buoy." However, this supposition proved lnoorreot, as will be disclosed later on. The Imp from this point assumed tho lead, with the Transit second and the others in a cluster. On rounding tne Daphne the wind was bo light that the boats oould barely stem the tide, and before tbe wharf was reached all, with the exception of the Imp, gave up the competition, under the Impression thatno boat could reach fhefUgshlp under existing olrcumatanoes. The Tranut se cured the earvlcoa of a dingy and waa towed into Freeman's Bay. while the Madge and Observer got no farther than the wharf. Up till half-past 6 o'clook none of tha boats had shewn up this Bide of the Railway Wharf, and it was generally supposed tbat the raoe was given over. Mr Dixon, the Umpire, Waited patiently on the yacht Habrina, and was re warded at exaotly 10 minntes pa'l7 oolook by ob serving a sail between the flsKßhip and the shore. Tho craft was hailed, and proved to be the Imp, which claimed first prize. Mr Dixon waited till after 9 o'clock, but. owing to the fact previously stated, none of the other competitors turned up. ' The result was mado known at the Ponsonby Club Hotel, where the committee had mot for tho purpose of distributing prizes shortly after tho arrival of Mr Walter Jones, who had been acting as fair-play man in the Imp. Much surprise was displayed that the Imp should have been bo specially favoured with wind, and that alio had got through tho water bo speedily, and some very serious chargeß wero made off hand by different persons. The result was, that Mr Jones said that "if anyone charged the Imp's crewwlth paddling he would call him a liar." The crew of the Imp indignantly deny the charge of "paddling," alloging that they worked up in shore in the smooth water, and favoured by a light breeze; while the Glenelg. boat, containing Captain Stephenson Messrs Bailey Warbrick, and McLeod, was pulling about in the vicinity, and tho occupants also dpny that the Imp paddled. Ono of tho Imp's crew further Informed us that thoy refused to receive liquor from thia party, and considers, therefore, that they cannot be charged with secuting assistance in thatquar- We understand that a protest has been lodged with tho committee against the Imp receiving the prize, on tho ground that "paddling" was I resorted to, a young man. named Keesing being prepared to swear that ho iavr the crew so engaged while in company with several other gentlemen, oh hoard ono of the Ferry steamora. The matter will be considered at a committee meeting, this evening, and it is sufficient for tho present to state that both the Imp's crew, and Mr Jones, the fair play man, deny the charge. ' 7 . , . A second protest has been lodged against the Imp. on the ground that When round ing the North Shore buoy, the Imp re fused to give the Observer room to p»S3 between her and the buoy,' as stipulated by the rules, and that Mr Walter Jones, who was in the Imp, seized hold of the Observer's bow- Sprit and pushed her astern. The Imp's crow attempt to justify this action by stating that it was done to' prevent the Observer's bowsprit running through the Imp's main sheet. Tho crows of the Observer and Madge state that tho Imp, instead of allowing the former boot to pass clear of the buoy, luffed up, and therefore was herself at fault, In going back, the Obser ver's main sheet caught tho Madge's jib-boom, and, turning both out of their course, brought them almost last instead of foremostboats. The umpire very wisely deferred his decision on botn matters, and will hear evidence beforo the committee at the Ponßonby Club Hotel this evening before giving his ruling.

The body of J ose__r Lee, drowned on Good Friday, was obse ved on Saturday last by the engineer of the ' Devonport floating off Northcote. 'Information was conveyed t° *'le Water Police and [the remains of the unfortunate man were recovered in the afternoon. An inquest was held at Gleeson. Hotel this afternoon, before Dr Philson, coroner, and a jury, of whom Mr F. Langshaw was chosen foreman. The evidence of Mr W. Grosse, who was one of deceased's com panions when the accident took place, and of Constable Freeman, who assisted in the recovery of the body,'was taken, and a verdict of accidental death returned. The funeral took place at lour o'clock this afternoon.
