JUDGE HANECY MAKES
A POINTED COMMENT

Chicago, Dec. 7.-Judge Dunno dis
charged Andrew M. Lawrence and II.
S. Garfield, editors of the American,
saying they were not guilty of contempt.
In granting the writ of habeas corr

question had been finally disposed Of
by Judge Hanecy when he gave his de-
cision from the bench. Judge Dunno
admitted that the articles and cartoons
which Judge Hanecy objected to were
probably libelous.
