by the sergeant to Mrs. Gillott, she said, "Well, I only
sell gin and beer to my own people," meaning the infamous
women who dwell in the four houses of ill-fame under her
management. The defendant was in bed, in the house No.
28, while the illicit traffic was going on.
Mr. Charles Young, solicitor, who defended Gi llott,
urged that his client knew nothing of the illegal traffic
going on in his house, and took no part in it, and that he
ought not to be convicted.

Mr. Self e—He is answerable for all that is carried mill
any of the houses of ill-fame conducted by his wife.
Bailey said Mrs. Gillott was convicted in the penalty
£lO for a similar offence a long time ago, before she ma'
Tied Gillott.

Mr. Selfe decided that the case was made out against
Gillott, who had been carrying on this illegal traffic in
.de-
fiance of the law, and against the interests of public
morality. He fined the defendant £lO, and in default of
payment he would be imprisoned three months.
The fine was immediately paid.

of an hour had elapsed in fruitless attempts to get the large
field away, in which Camerino twice broke away, and ran
to the distance before she could be stopped the first time,
and on the second attempt he reached the Stand enclosure.
During the tedious delay the patience of the spectators wee
sorely tried ; but at last the welcome peal of the bell, and the

Some considerable time was consumed in getting the horses

beaten, and disappeared from the front, the three placed

TILE DISPUTE IN TIIE .B UILDING

TRADES.

The masters are proceeding cautiously in the
present disagreement with the men. They do not
want a general lock-out in the trade, but at the
same time they are throwing all the labour they
can into the market. Almost every master is dis-
charging every man he can. Of all those discharged
none have accepted the increased remuneration
offered by the masters. A great number of the
bricklayers who remained at work by the hour at
the Grosvenor Hotel have been removed to the
Horticultural Gardens, and there are now about
half as many there as were locked out.
In Blackburn the masters have endeavoured to
force on the hour system, but it has been resisted
by the men, acid the result is that the carpenters
are locked out.

At Newcastle an association was formed about
three weeks ago for purposes of defence against the
obnoxious mode of employment by the hour, and it
now numbers 100 members.

At Exeter the carpenters are asking for the four
o'clock on Saturdays, and the painters are agitating
for an increase in pay of 2s. per week.
At Norwich and other places active ste-as are
being taken for the formation of societies of defence.
The committee in London are receiving letters
from all parts of the country promising •ybem aid in
the present struggle. Large subscriptions are ex-
pected to arrive in the course of next week. But
these expectations are very ill-founded, as, from the
generally depressed state of trade, workmen in other
quarters must have enough to do in providing for
themselves.
