Judge Hurt Claims the Act In
the Penal Code Is In

The Courtroom Was Crowded
With Lawyers, Preachers
and Pugilists. ST

j. DALLAS, Tex, Sept. 1S.-After two
days consumed in argument Oh the
habeas corpus hearing Of Jesse Clarke,
charged with prize fighting, Judge
Hurt, Of the court of criminal appeals,
decided that the act in penal code was
wholly imperative. The court said:
lit was I who first suggested making
prize fighting felony. I wanted the
state of Texas to take all advanced
stand on the subject of prize fighting,
which regarded as the most brutal of
acts. But my private opinion has
nothing to do with the law. I do not
believe that under the provisions Of our
statutes or the well settled rule Of con-
struction, this man has violated a law
that has been so plainly written, that he
is responsible for it, and I shall dis
charge him. I will give my reasons
hereafter in writing"
At the close of his remarks some per-
sons applauded, and the court, turning,
said to them sternly: II will send you
all to jail" They couldn't, however,
be-. identified. The courtroom was
crowded with
Lawyers, Preachers and Tugilists.
The state was represented by its at
torney general, who said to a reporter
that he has no further proceedings to
take.
The points Of contention by the at
torney general were:
First-That the criminal law making
prize fighting felony and furnishing it
as misdemeanor had precedence over
and repealed the civil law licensing
prize fights.
Second-That the law was introduced
when the laws were codified, and was a
enactment and not a continued law
Defendants counsel contended that as
the criminal law went into effect on
Aug. last and the license law on Sept
/. tho criminal law was repealed, and
they also commended and cited evidence
to show new law should have been
added to the statutes by the coditiers
and approved by the legislatures.

.Gme Hot Shot Poured Into the Present
Method Of Treating Criminals. u.
DENVER, Sept. ls.,--A sensation was
created in the prison congress by a
paper on "Politics and Crime, written
aby Amos G. Warner. professor Of econ
somics and social scisnce in the Leland
Stanford University of California and
read by John N. Dryden Of Kearney,
sNeb. s@ S G@ N "
Y IF the state itself is under the in.
f1uence of criminals said the doctor,
boldly plunging into his subject, chow
can it hope to reform criminals? Set
ting thief to catch thief was an old
time doctrine, but the plan Of setting a
thief to reform thief has neveryet been
defended. The representatives Of the
state with which criminals are most fire..
.quently brought into contact are police
men, police justices. sheriffs, sheriffs'
deputies and jail keepers, only a shade
if at all better than the criminals them.
selves. The hope of cure of criminals
largely lies in curative treatment in the
early stages. Petty offenders and those
on the verge Of criminality in the large
cities seldom, or never, get beyond this
line of guards and live more or less in
their presence. The police to them rep
resent the state.'
n The professor illustrated his meaning
by giving details of the treatment given
tramps, gamblers, prostitutes and the
criminal classes generally. The paper
started warm discussion and brought
out a number of protests.
Warden w. E. Hale Of San Quentin,
Cal. who for six years prior to assuming
charge of the prison, had been sheriff Of
Alameda county, said that he wanted to
brand some of the allegations as to cor
ruption in California as false. Mr.. Hale
thought it was shameful for man of
the standing of the professor to make
such sweeping and general charges, and
he could not sit still under them.
d It was the sentiment Of the delegates
that man of Professor Warmers stand
ing would not make such broad asser-
tions unless he was able to back them
up The paper was ordered filed and
thanks sent to the professor.
