FIVE YEARS FOR sHANGHAIING.
Southern Judge Gives Sailor tho Limit
and Pleads for Justice 10 Negroe9.

SAVANNAH, Ga, April 7.-Harry Olsen,
sailor runner, who was found guilty yes
terday Of shanghaiing a number Of negroes
and sending them to England on the Rus
sian bark Alice, was sentenced to-day to
five years in the penit entiary, the maximum
term, and to pay a fine Of 5000,
In sentencing the prisoner Judge Emory
Speer said that the action of the jury was
an otner exemplification Of the truth that
the most effective friend Of the helpless
and unprotected negro is the gentleman
of the Southern communities. They know
his weakness, he said, but are never slow
when he Is in the right, or when he has been
wronged, to come to his assistance or his
defence.
while this Is true" he continued. "it is
probably also true that representative
South ern people are not aware Of the ex-
cesses and cruelties to which the laYless
and vicious sometimes resort in depriv-
ing helpless colored men of their liberties.
We cannot have a stable prosperity when
any class of citizenship, however humble,
can be criminally deprived OF liberty with
out due process of law
