LABOR AGITAToR SENTENCED.
PORTO RICAN COURT DEALS
HARsHLY WITH IGLEsIAs.

Head of the Labor Federation of
the Island Sentenced to Three
Years and FOur Months Imprison-
ment on Charge of "Conspircy'
to Raise. Wages-Seven COmpan-
ions Given Four Months Each.
IgIesias and His Friends Charge
the Courts Action to Politics.
san Juan, Porto Rico, Dec. 12.-San-
tiago Iglesias, president of the Fed
Grafton of Workmen of Porto Rico,
together with nine companions, was
tried in the District Court of San Juan
To-day Iglesias was sentenced to three
years, four months and eight days i'm
prisonment. Seven of his companions
were sentenced to four months i'm
prsonment, while two were acquitted
of the charge of being the founders
of an illegal association, and conspira-
cy in August of 1900, to raise the labor
of Porto Rico.
The local federation of the workmen
of Porto Rico, which is now part
of the American Federation of Labor,
under the presidency of Samuel Com
pers, has been ordered dissolved, as it
has been adjudged illegal because of
this conspiracy.
Mr.. Savage, Judge of the District
Court, dissented as to the illegality of
the local federation, although he
agreed that Iglesias was guilty of
conspiracy to raise the price of labor
Aug. /, 1900, when the currency OF
Porto Rico was changed. At that time
nearly all the merchants and employ
ers here raised their prices from pesos
to dollars, an advance of 40 cents.
Iglesias did the same, contending he
only raised wages in proportion to
other increases. This constitutes the
conspiracy.
The case has been appealed to the
Supreme Court of Porto Rico, where
it will probably be heard in a month.
Pending this appeal, Iglesias is at lib
erty.
Iglesias says politics Influenced the
decision against him, as the judges be-
longed to the local Republican party,
while Iglesias is a Federalist. One of
the acquitted men has turned Repub-
lican, it is said, since the time of the
conspiracy.
Since Iglesias has been here as the
local organizer of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor. he has been contin-
ually attacked in circulars and threat
ened by certain Republicans who OPP
pose his plans. Last Tuesday night
these Republicans fired several shots
at the building of the federation The
police searched the rooms of these men
for arms, but found nothing.

MUST HEAR PATRICK CASE.
Justice Morris i'm the Habeas Cor
pus Proceedfng.


New York, Dec. 12.--Albert 7. Pat
rick was brought before the Supreme
Court to-day on a writ of habeas corr
pus obtained by his counsel, CantweII
and Moore. The writ was obtained on
the ground that the district attorney
had failed to prosecute on the indict-
ment handed down on April 25, charg-
ing Patrick with the murder of Will
liam Marsh Rice, and that therefore
the accused had been deprived OF his
constitutional right to a speedy trial.
To-day's hearing was before Justice
Beach. Robert M. Moore asked for
the discharge of the defendant. He
said that Patrick had been confined in
the Tombs since Oct. 4, 1900, and that
efforts of defendants counsel to secure
a trial on the murder charges had been
futile.
Assistant District Attorney Garvan
said the delay was due to the time
required by the experts to examine
the contents of Rice's stomach. He
said it was the intention of the dis
trlct attorney to- bring the case to
trlal as speedily as the interests of
justice would permit. The court said
ne would hold the papers in this case
on the understanding that the dis
trlct attorney will move the case on
Dec. 20, and after a pause, the justice
added, "or on the 9th, or on the 30th
This case should be heard as an in
alienable right of the defendant, and
l will see that it is done"
This closed the hearing and Patrick
was taken back to prison.

INDIGNANTLY OF BOERS.
Many Witnesses Testify to III
Treatment of Benson's wounded.

London, Dec. 12.-The war Office is
sued statement tonight dealing with
the Boer treatment of Col. Benson's
wounded at Brakenlaagte, which is a
result of a special inves tigation of the
matter instituted by Lord Kitchener.
The statements set forth that eigh-
teen officers and men of Col. Benson
command were kindly and even care
fully treated by the Beers, while the
other seventy-five men who were ex-
amined testified that they witnessed
and suffered atrocities worse than
those which followed the Vlakfonteln
disaster. These latter said that I'M
armed and wounded men lying around
the guns were killed at close range
and that the survivors of the engage
n1ent suffered tortures, being robbed
and stripped of their clothing in spite
of their wounds and broken limbs.
Lord Kitchener says that evidently
the Boer leaders are no longer able
to repress murder and outrage on the
part of their subordinates.

A BRUNSWICK FILIPINO.
PaschaI SaIvador's Citizen ship Now
Subject of Dispute.

Subject of Dispute.
Brunswick. Ca, Dec. lin 1884
Paschal Salvador came to this country
and decided to locate. He was from
the Philippine Islands, and filed with
the clerk of the court here his papers
renouncing his allegiance to the King
of Spain Matters rocked along I'M
til few days ago Salvador wanted to
get his citizenship fully established
and applied to Superior Court Clerk
duBignon for papers finally disposing of
his case and making him a citizen of
the United States. The point was
then raised that inasmuch as the Phil
ippine Islands were now a part of the
United States the man Salvador was
by virtue of this fact a citizen of the
United States, and did not need any
papers to fix his citizenship.
The question was discussed pro and
con. and no decision reached the whole
matter being reported to the United
States Attorney General by Clerk du-
Bignon, who will, of course, abide by
whatever decision that official renders.
