A case involving the right to publish pro
ceedings in court is uuder litigation at New
Orleans. The editor and publisher of The
Times-D emocrat have been adjudged guilty of
contempt in publishing the report of a law
case with comments thereon. This finding of
the particular court offended has been affirm
ed by the Supreme Court of the State, which
lays down the strange doctrine that the news
paper had no right TO do more than publish
the verbatim report or an epitome of facts.
No comments are allowed. 1t is now probable
that the case will go to the Supreme Court
of the United States, and in the interest of
the liberty of the press it is important that it
should. It seems absurd to bar comment al
together. The real question to decide is
whether the comment is fair and dispassion-
ate, and not malignant nor prejudiced. Per-
haps it is better taste to wait the course of
law; but how about litigation which lasts
several yesrsR Asto reports, it is entirely a
question Of accuracy and fairness.-san

JANEsvILLE, Wis, April 13.-A terri
Ia tragedy occurred about ten miles
west of this city at 10 o'clock this morn
ing, resulting in Mrs. Nat Gibson and
Mrs. Hearn being shot by the formers
husband and their bodies burned in the
house of the murderer. During the
morning Mr. Gibson and his wife had a
quarrel, and they decided to call in Mrs.
Hearn, neighbor, to act as peace
maker. Shortly afterward two pistol
shots were heard by Gibson's little
child, who was playing near the house,
and immediately following them the
house was seen to be in flames. The
child ran to Mr.. Hearn's house and gave
the alarm. When Mr.. Hearn arrived on
the scene the house was almost entirely
consumed. Upon investigation the bodies
of Mrs. Gibson and Mrs. Hearn were
found burned to crisp. The little girl
said that after the shots were fired she
saw her father run from the house and
go towards the woods in the direction
of Whitewater. The impression is that
Gibson, in fit of anger. shot the two
women and then fired the place to hide
the crime. A posse of citizens was Or
ganized and started i'll pursuit of Glib
son. The feeling against him is very
bitter. and, should he be caught the
chances are that he will be roughly
after the murderer with guns and ropes,
and he will no doubt be lynched if
caught. The sheriff has gone to the
scene, and will try to prevent the mob
from doing violence.

REPUBLICANS WILL INSIST
On the Persecution OF the Senator
From North Dakota.

From North Dakota.
WASHINGTON, April Is. The Re-
publican senators were in caucus this
morning before the senate met upon
the Roach case. They resolved to in
sist to the last upon an investigation of
the charges against Mr. Roach, and also
to compel an investigation of the claim
of Mr.. Ady to the seat now filled
by Mr.. Martin as senator from
Kansas. 1t came to the ears of
the Republicans that the Democrats
after reporting the resolution providing
for an investigation of the latter case,
will, when it comes to the senate again
from the committee on contingent eX-
penses, which was to provide the means
for the inquiry, move to lay the reSolu-
tion on the table. 1t was decided that
vigorous opposition should be made
against the consideration of the Roach
case behind closed doors.
A conference of Democratic leaders
was held this afternoon after the senate
adjourned. They met in the room of
the committee on commerce, and the
senators present were Messrs. German,
Gray. Blackburn. Harris, Cockrell
and Ransom. After a short time Mr..
German went after MIR. Roach. brought
him to the committee room, where
he remained a few minutes, and left
with Mr.. German, the latter gentleman
subsequently having conference with
Mr. Mcbride in his room. Ii is quite
probable that at this conference some
definite plan was agreed upon, but the
senators who participated were very
reticent and refused to talk.

Britain, in company with several wei
known evangelists, speaking an hour
each evening on the Ozark side of Lon
DON" A weekly journal, commenting
upon this. admits that Mitchell would
be well able to handle his subject in
mastery fashion from his experience.
The writer then goes on to warn his
readers that this is only scheme on the
part of Mitchell to secure sufficient
money to increase his wager with Cor
bettSto $4,000.
TO a man who knows Mitchells
character" said passenger on the Ma
jestic, which arrived yesterday, sit is
indeed funny. Mitchell is no hypOcrite.
Up to the time we sailed from Liver
pool, not single denial of this absurd
rumor was printed. When Mitchell
reached London he was too much Occu-
pied to give any attention to the report.
He laughed, and asked what the papers
would have him do next"
Continuing, the gentleman said Nit
chell had little to say concerning his
coming fight. Several officers of the big
White Star line steamship on which the
English premier pugilist crossed the
ocean report that he took excellent care
of himself OH the way over. 1t was his
custom to take five-mile walk on the
deck, a sea-water bath and rub down.
Frequently Mitchell told friends on
board that he intended to abandon the
use of all alcoholic beverages from the
time he reached London until the fight.
KANSAS CITY, April Is. - Parson
Davies, Peter Jackson's manager. was
shown the dispatch from New York this
morning which stated that English
papers were printing columns of matter
about Charles Mitchell substituting the
pulpit for the prize ring. The parson
read the item carefully, then said:
1T is difficult for me to express an
opinion in regard to this report Mitch
ell is clever, a fluent talker, and is not
as black as he is painted. Should he
enter the ministry he would doubtless
be successful in that calling. The color
OF truth is added to the report when it
is remembered that Mitchell recently
refused to sign to do battle at COney
Island until his return to America.
''lf Mitchell resigns the ring for the
ministry | will match Peter Jackson to
fight Corbett on the date set for Mitchell.
Corbett has agreed to fight jackson in
the event of Mitchell not coming to the
scratch. and Jackson is so willing to
fight the champion that little or no
trouble will be encountered in arrang-
ing match between these men,"
The grin, peculiar to Peter Jackson,
OYerspread his face when he was in
formed of the New York dispatch. He
thought it possible that it might be true.
He himself had a slight inclination in
that direction. The scriptUral passages
in "Uncle Toms Cabin" and the gen
eral religious air that surrounded that
character, presented much food for
thought,

declaring that Mr.. Martins election as
senator had been effected by house of
representatives., ten OF whose members
had not held certificates of election,
and that Mr.. Ady had been legally and
fairly elected as senator. The resolu-
tion reported yesterday from the COM
mittee on privileges and elections for
the purpose of the investigation came
up again today, but was, on objection
by MI. Harris, laid over until tomorrow.
The motion for all executive session was
resisted by the Republican senator's,
the doors Were reopened, Mr.. Chandler
took the floor to speak OH the Roach
resolution, but he consented to defer
his speech till tomorrow.

WASHINGTON, April 13.-Secretary
Gresham said today that the action of
Minister Egan in affording an asylum to
two of the revOlutlonists in Chill, who
had returned to Santiago, was the sub
ject of correspondence by the depart
ment of state, but that in the absence
of full information of all the facts in
the case there was nothing that lie
could say regarding the matter. Until
that is secured the instructions for the
guidance of Mr.. Egan Will be withheld
from the public.
