No Peace OVcrtures.

Washington, Special.-While the Of
ficials here are satisfied from their pri-
King Edward to his nephew. Emperor
William, was not brought about by
purpose to initiate n movement toward
the restoration of peace between Rus
sla and Japan, there is reason to be-
heve that some very careful and dis
Greet inquiries as to the opportunities
or some such overtures at this time
nave emanated from Washington. 1t
may be stated that the result has been
to disclose the fact that neither OF the
belligerent powers is yet in humor to
sue for peace, nor even to entertain
overtures from any third power on that
subject.

Judge Speer Hands Down a Ruling
of Wide Application
AGAINST CHAIN.GANG SENTENCES
United States Court Judge Emory
Speer, of Georgia, Orders the Re-
lease of a Negro Prisoner Sent Up
BY Recorder, Holding That There
Had Been No Finding of Guilt or
Innocence by the Official.

Macon, Ga, Special.-United States
District Judge Emory Speer. of the
western division OF the southern dis
trict of Georgia, has rendered an opin.
ion Of far-reaching Importance, involv-
ing the authority OF municipal courts
all over the country to sentence viola
tors of municipal ordinances to local
chain-gangs. The case came before
Judge Speer on writ of habeas cor
pus applied for by Henry Jamison. a
negro. for release from the custody Of
4. A. Wimbish. superintendent of the
Bibb county, Ga, chain-gang. Judge
Speer in lengthy opinion decided that
the superintendent was without au-
thority to hold the prisoner and di-
rected his immediate release
In passing on the case Judge Speer
called attention to the fact that the
commitment from the recorders court
was "a sentence and nothing more"
and that there was no finding of guilt
or Innocence by the recorder" The
question involved" said Judge Speer.

convict citizen twice for violation of
municipal ordinance and sentence
him to seven months at hard labor on
the public chain gang, the punishment
TO be suffered in branch OF the peni-
tentiary."
Continuing, he said: Can it be main
tanned in the light OF the constitution
that one man, under any form OF pro-
cedure, devised or to be devised by
local legislation, can consign men,
women and children to chain-gang
for such trivial offenses as are within
the Jurisdiction of q police magistrate?"
Judge Speer severely scored the chain
gang methods and said: Indeed. it
may be with entire accuracy declared
that the voluminous and exhaustive
preparation OF the city attorney and
the subsequent examination by the
court has evoked no shred OF author
ity, either American or English. where
sentence by a police magistrate to a
public chain-gang, with the ignominous
accessories OF letters. the stripes, lash
