l<nncb>n. lly Cable.--Ovor TOO Danish
and Norwegian emigrants bound for
Now York are believed to have been
drowned in the North Atlantic on June
2S. Out of nearly S00 souls on board
the Danish steamer Norge. which left j
Copenhagen June 22. only 27 are known j
to be alive and for the rest no hope is t
held out.
When last seen the Norge was sink- j
I tig where she struck 011 the Islet of t
Hoekall. who6e isolated peak raises it- !
self from 1 deadly Atlantic reef, some
290 mihsofi the west coast of Scotland.
Early on the in ruing of last Tuesday
f the Norge, which was out of her course
in heaw weather, ran onto the Ilockall <
reef. The Norge was quickly backed off
but the lieavy seas poured in through 1
a rent in her hows.
The emigrants, who were then awaiting
their break fast, ran on deck. The :
hatchways were scarcely built for these j
hundreds of souls and became clogged. 1
The Norge quickly began to go clown
by the head. Eight boats were lowered 1
and in?o these the women and children
were hurriedly put. Six of these boats |
aiiw^imn against uie suie of LIU' Norge |
and their helpless inmates were caught !
up by the heavy seas. Two boat, loads
got away safely from the side of the
sinking ship and many of the emigrants
who were left on board seizing
life belts, threw themselves into the
sea and were drowned. Captain Gundel.
so say <*he survivors, stood on the
bridge of the doomed vessel until it
could be seen no more.
The boats kept together some hours.
Practically ail of their occupants were !
passengers and not used to handling I
such craft. Tl.e boat occupied by the j
survivors laudect at Grimsby was a life
boat. One account says that three boats
were successfully launched, the other
two holding about ten persons each.
The lifeboat made faster progress and
fell in with the Salvia. What became of
the other boati is not known. The rescue
of those on the; lifeboat took place
at 8 o'clock on \lio morning of June 2'J.
the survivors censistiug of 20 men. one
of them a seaman, six women and a |
girl. i
One of the surrivv -s said that when
be got on deck tl f N<v>rge was half submerged
and was rapidly getting lower
In the water. Half m:vd with fright the
survivors all struggled for places in
the boats. They fought their way to
the big lifeboat and an officer stowed
in the six women and the girl and then
told the men to get in. The officer then |
took charge and got the l.oat to the i
side of the Norge. Selni? that the boat ?
was already overladen, the officer with
great heroism jumped inJo the water
and tried to board nrr^Aor bosit which
11v*i nu mil. r.e iailed and was !
drowned.
In the sea by this time was a mass
of struggling men. wcmen i nd children ;
grasping and choking from the effects t
of the water. They tried to get in the
already overladen boats, but were beaten
off with oars. The boat rowed clear
of this seething mass and Just as she
drew away the Nor go went down.
Peter Nelson, one of the survivors,
described as a young American, said:
"For some hours wo rowed in, company
with the other boats, but thi strong
tide drifted us away from the others
and nothing lias born seen tpf them
since. The Salvia picked us up\and w?
\ were well eared for on hoard the Trawler.
Ml of us lost our entire belong]
lugs. He had no time in that fierce
i / fight for lite to think of anything hut
the getting of seats in the boat."
The only hope except for those
known to have escaped is that some
few of i e emigrants might have been
washed upon t lie barren np-ks. Their
chance of being rescued eken thon is
practically nil. for vessels sailing the i
North Atlantic give Roekall a wide
birth as possible.

_#
Judge Speer Hands Down a Ruling j
of W ide Application
AGAINST CHAIN-GANG ShNTLNCtS
?
United States Court Judge Emory
Speer, of Georgia, Orders the Release
of a Negro Prisoner Sent Up
r?.? ? n ? "
ay a nccoraer, r-ioiaing That There
Had Been No Finding of Guilt or
Innocence by the Official.
Macon, Ga., Special.?United States
District Judge Emory Speer. of the
western division of the southern district
of Georgia, has rendered an opinion
of far-reaching importance, involv- i
ing the authority of municipal courts
all over the country to sentence violators
of municipal ordinances to local
chain-gangs. The case came before
Judge Speer on a writ of habeas corpus
applied for by Henry Jamison, a
negro. for release from the custody of
E. A. Wimbish. superintendent of the
Bibb county, Ga., chain-gang. Judge
Speer in a lengthy opinion decided that
tue superintendent was without authority
to hold the prisoner and di- i
rected his immediate release.
In passing on the case Judge Speer
called attention to the fact that the
commitment from the recorder's court
was "a-sentence and nothing more,"
and that tttere "was no finding of guilt
or lajnocenco hy the recorder." The
question involved," said Judge Speer,
"is whether the recorder of Macon, can,
without any sort of criminal pleading,
and without'tho intervention of a jury,
convict a citizen twice for violation of
a municipal ordinance and sentence
hint to seven months at hard labor on
tho public chain-gang, tbe punishment
to be suffered in a branch of the penitentiary."
Continuing, he said: "Can it be maintained
in the light of the constitution
that one man, under any form of procedure,
devised or to be devised, by
local legislation, can consign men,
women and children to a chain-gang
for such trivial offenses as are within
the jurisdiction of a police magistrate?"
Judge Speer severely scored the chaingang
methods and said: "Indeed, it
may be with entire accuracy declared
that the voluminous and exhaustive
preparation of the city attorney and
tKo * '
mvj Buuacqut'ia examination by tue
court has evoked no shred of authority,
either American or English, where
a sentence by a police magistrate to a
public chain-gang, with the ignominous
accessories of fetters, the stripes, lash
and of the degradation of convict life,
has hern sustained or even palliated.
Under the American system the chaingang
has no place in the jurisdiction
and procedure of police courts where
trial by ?"*? '

LIBERTY OP THE PRESS
H? says that Abuse of Liberty of the
Press is Rare?Punishable Contempt
is Defined.
Asheville, N. C\. Special. .1 udge J. C.
Prltc.hard. of the I'nited States Circuit
Court, has filed his opinion in the case
of Mr. Josophus Daniels, editor of the
Reloigh News and Observer, who had
been fined $2,000 for contempt of court
by District Judge Thomas It. Purnell.
The case came up on a writ of habeas
corpus sued out by Mr. Daniels, who
refused to pay the fine and was ordered
committed.
o imini s opinion is ;i careiui
and comprehensive review of the law as
applied to newspaper utterances that
might he construed as contempt of
court. The opinion says that in order
to determine whether tho petitioner Is
entitled to the relief prayed for in his
writ it Is necessary to determine two
questions: (1) Did the court which imposed
the sentence in his case have
jurisdiction and CM Dors this court
have jurisdiction to hear and determine
this case on a writ of habeas corpus?
"The force of public opinion In this
country in favor of the freedom of the i
press has restrained the free exercise 1
of the power to punish this class of I
contempts, and in many jurisdictions '
statutes have been enacted depriving '
the court of the power to punish them. \
It was taken from the Federal "onrts i
?>y the act of Congress of 1831. which '
act deprives tin se courts of the com- |
inon-law power to protect by this pro- I
<ess tlu ir suitors, witnesses. ofUcers
and themselves against the libel of the
press, though published and <irculatcd j
during the trial of a case therein.
"The newspapers sometimes engage J
in unwarrantable criticism of the
courts cannot be denied," continue^ the
Judge. "In some instances they construe
the liberty of the picss as a license
to authorize them to engage in
wholesale abuse of the court, but these
installers are rare and do not warrant
a departure from tlie well-settled prln- j
eiples of the law as declared by Con- !
gress and construed by the courts. If
judges charged with the administration
of the law are not to be criticised
on account of tlicir own conduct tho
liberty of the press is abridged and
the rights of indivi luals imperiled.
"There may he instances when? the .
publication ot editorials or other matter
in newspapers would bring the author
within the limitations of the statute.
For instance, if a newspaper
should publish an article concerning a
trial which was being considered by a
jury and should send a copy of the
paper containing sueli article to the 1
jury or a member thereof during the
progress of the trial for the purpose of
influencing them in their decision. It
would present a question whether such
nr\*\ il u/*l w/inl.l nnf Uo n- L.I?oli-.o!....
the presence of the court or so near
thereto as to obstruct the administration
tff justice.
"It appears that the distinguished
Mho adjudged the petitioner to
intentpt of court." he concludes, j
ed the authority granted in the !
ls:U and that the Court was
jurisdiction. Such being the
" judgment of the court is void
rcfore a nullity.
iew of the foregoing, the Court I
at the petitioner is unlawfully
ed of his liberty, and it is there- ,
nsidered and ordered by the i
[hat i!sc said Josepbus Daniels
hargod from the custody of the I
I ot the United States and that
... .-.v pence without day."

to the order of the United

payable to creditors, Receiver Corbin ]

advices that the recent visit of

purpose to initiate a movement toward

sia and Japan, there is reason to believe
that some very careful and disereet
inquiries as to (ho opportunities
of some such overtures at this time
have emanated from Washington. It !
may be stated that the result lias been j
to disclose the fact that neither of the
