Protection 10 News.

The New York Sun sustains the
Courier-Jo,rn1l in the demand for copy
right protection for "news." The
respectability of Messrs. Dana and Wat
terson, as dealers in news, gives value to
their suggestion, but this seems to be the
only value it has. There is nothing in
the idea to sustain 1t beyond the bare
authority of those who recommend it.
1t has not recommended itself to the
judgment Of editors generally; a
fact which causes its promoters
to grow wrathful, and TO charge
those who take issue with them
with being "news thieves :" and
the Sun is even angry enough to call the
editor of the Buffalo NeUs fool, be-
cause he declared it absurd to claim that
newspaper has right to " news" after
it has sold it to the public, any more
than man has right to the land, or a
merchant to the tea he has sold and
been paid for. The Sun thinks it an
swers this comparison by saying that
" it isnot within the duty of Congress
to protect the rights of property in land
or tea" but it has the power to protect
those rights in literature "by securing
for limited times to authors and invent
ors the exclusive right to their respect
i've writings and discoveries"
Unfortunately for the force of the
Suns answer it is not literary work that
1t asks protection for. That is protected
under the present laws. What it wants
to secure property in is "news :" not
the particular words in which the news
Is clothed, but the news itself. II they
can claim property in this as inventors,
Congress might properly protect their
discoveries; but news that is invented
is not news but story II it is true it
could not be invented, and il invented
could not be true. News must be fact
to be news, and 30 the San cannot claim
congressional power to protect property
In 1t under its power to protect inyen.
tion. 1t is very true that most of the
news Of the special correspondent lacks
the important element Of truth but II
has its only value in its pretence to be
truth and such false pretence canno,
decently ask protection from the law.

The mistake that Mrs. Bussey made at q
Rochester Hotel.


MIS- T. Harris Bussey, who on Tuesday
shot Ida Brown at a Rochester hotel, is
the wife Of the son of Esek Bussey, lead
ing Troy stove manufacturer, and whose
family IS prominent in social circles IL was
ascertained to-day that recently Esek
Bussey and his sons wife we're served
with complaint in an action for divorce
brought by Edward Casey, an ex police
man of Troy, against Rebecca Casey. The
complaint and letter signed"A Witness, 1"
handed Mrs. Bussey at the same time,
charged her husband with visiting ques-
tionable resorts in New York with Mrs.
Casey.
Mrs. Bussey demanded an explanation
from her husband, who denied knowing
Mrs. Casey, who is young and handsome,
and stamped the affair as blackmail
ing plot. Mrs. Bussey, seeming satisfied,
and declaring that no woman should come
between her and her husband, induced him
to accompany her to Rochester and face
the Casey woman, who with Miss Brown,
left Troy for Rochester few days ago.
Miss Brown, visiting the hotel as Mrs.
Casey's representative, Mrs. Bussey shot
her, it is believed, while excited aud sup,
posing it was Mrs. Casey. Young Bussey' s
father declares his son has been made the
victim of conspiracy to extort money
from his wealthy relatives, and changes a
prominent mill owner of Troy with being a
chief consprator. Troy's social circles are
In ferment over the developments.
