SUPREME COURT
CLEARS WED|N
OF NEGLIGENCE
Decides Against Conviction OF
Hudson Sheriff for Escape
of Three Prisoners.
Especial to the Newark stnr. !

TRENTON, Feb. 16.-The Supreme
Court today, in an opinion by Justice
Garrison. decides against the con-
viction in the Hudson Special Ses-
sions of Sheriff Nicholas P. Wedin,
on a charge of negligent escape" for
permitting three prisoners to make
their escape from the Hudson county
jail in April last year.
Wedin was convicted before Justice
Swayze, he having waived indict-
ment and trial by jury Justice
Swayze. in finding Wedin guilty, de-
cided at the time that there was no
actual negligence so far as wedin
was personally concerned, but he
found him guilty undr the common
law which made the sheriff respon-
sible for the conduct of his deputies
in the matter of escapes.
Justice Swayze. while finding
Wedin guilty, was not willing to pass
judgment on the case without the
advice of the Supreme Court, because
of the defense put up by Wedin that
the real negligence, if any rested
upon deputies under him who were
not appointees of his, but who held
their positions against his will by
virtue of civil service protection.
The opinion by Justice Garrison
says that it is not necessary for the
Supreme Court to Pass upon the va
rious points raised before that court
in the review of the case, but holds
that the records do not warrant
Wedin's conviction and that the COM
mon law liability of Wedin has been
modified by legislation which takes
out of his hands the appointment of
his subordinates.

at the old place. The room which he
occupied was sacredly reserved by
Mrs. Wainwright, the owner and was

scripts, penciled poems and other
treasures priced by Mrs. Wainwright.

States, SeIf-Made Man,
Dies Suddenly.

TOXIC. Feb 16.-Viscount Siuzo
Aoki, former ambassador to the Uni
ted States, died today. The news that
the famous diplomat was critically i'll
became publicly known only a few
hours before his death occurred
though it was known that he had
been ailing for some time past.
Viscount Aoki was the son of a viii
lage doctor, born in 1874, and may be
considered a self-made man. He was
among the first of the Japanese to
seek an education abroad, going to
Germany for this purpose in 1863.
A few years later he was appointed
secretary to the Japanese legation al
Berlin, and thus he began career
which eventually led him to be con-
sidered the most experienced diplo-
mat in japan. He was twice minister
of foreign affairs, and besides his
ENTHUSIASTICALLY at Washington, he
served his country at London and
Berlin.
While in Berlin he married the
Prussian Baroness Won Rahden
which was the first instance of a for
eign woman of rank becoming the
wife-of Japanese. The viscount was
ambassador to this country in 1906
and 1907 At the time of his death he
was privy councillor.
The news that the famous diplomat
was critically i'll became publicly
known only few hours before his
death, though he had been ailing for
some time.
viscount Aoki's daughter Hanah
emulated the example of her father,
marrying a German, Count Alexan-
der Won Hatzfeldt- -Trachenberg, while
he was an attache of the German le-
cation in Toxic in 1904.
Viscount Aoli at the time of his
death he held the post of privy coun-
cilor.
