TIE RIGHTS OF REPORTERS.
(From the Ludlow Tribune)

Considerable discussion is taking place
In regard to Sheriff Pcck's refusal to
permit newspaper men to witness the
execution of Mary Rogers. The views
of one section of the press appear in the
following from the Rutland News:
I'VE think il entirely sufficient II n
reliable representative of the Associated
Press and perhaps one other newspaper
association be admitted to the hanging.
BY this means entirely adequate infor-
nation can be disseminated, There is
something morbid IN the desire of any

wishing to witness such IL grucsomc af-
far and it is well enough to restrain it,"
Such a sentiment is unworthy Of a
newspaper man who aims To tell the
facts. No reporter would select the hang
Ing as desirable and pleasant duty.
Many would checrfully shift the rcspon-
siblity to the shoulders of the Asso-

for failing to give his readers the facts

BOY WON HIS CASE
AGAINST POLICE MAN
His Only 0ffense Was Saying "Puddin'
in Tame" When Asked His
Name.

A boy VS.. a policeman is the case
which occupied Commissioner Vests at
tention for short time. The boy Won,
and the policeman was fined SIS.
A question of personal liberty was at
stake. On April s. Policeman Miller,
colored, arrested Herschel Reese. of 1877
California street northeast. He had
found the boy In company with other
boys around a FIRE on a vacant lot near
Second and California streets. He ask
ed the boy his name. Reese aggravated
the officer by promptly replying "Pud-
din in tame He was taken forthwith
to the lookup,
A. l. Reese, his father, brought
charges against Miller The trial board
divided after hearing the testimony.
Captain Swindells and Lieutenant Elliot
decided Miller was not guilty of conduct
unbecoming an officer. A. Leftwich Sin
clair chairman of the board, presented
a minority report, holding that Miller
had trespassed on the boys personal
liberty He deemed the arrest wholly
inexcusable, and pointed out that the
boys parents. living 50 yards away, were
not notified.
Major Sylvester finally tndorsed the
minority report, calling attention, how
ever. TO the action of the boy in ignoring
the officers request He stated the de-
partment has always dealt lenientiy
with boys.
Commissioner West approved the re-
port. though reducing the fine of S25
proposed by Mr.. Sinclair to SIS.
