COURT cURss PRESS.
Freedom to Discuss Public Matters Is
Subject to Restraint.

Washington, June 11.-Federal cour,
DEGREES prohibiting newspapers from
publishing articles held to embarrass
the administration of justice were sus-
tanned by the supreme court.
Judgment was upheld against the
Toledo Newspaper Company, publish
er, and n. D. Cochran, editor in chief,
of the Toledo (O.) News-Bee for con :
tempt of court.
At the close Of yesterdays sitting the
court adjourned for the summer.
Chief Justice White rendered the
opinion in the newspaper case.
Taking up the contention the act
authorizing courts to punish for con-
tempt was inapplicable because the
publications complained Of related to a
matter Of public concern and We're
safeguarded by the secured freedom
of the press, he said:
I'VE might well pass the proposition
by, because to state 1t is to answer
it. 1t involves in its very statement
the contention that the freedom OF the
press is the freedom to do wrong with
impuni-y and implies the right to frus-
trate and defeat the discharge Of those
governmental duties upon the per-
Torrance of which the freedom Of all
including that Of the press, depends.
ut suffices to say that however COM
plete is the right of the press to state
public things and discuss them. that
right, as every other right enjoyed in
human society is subject to the re-
straints which separate right from
.Broing doing.
Again it Is said there is no good
proof that the mind Of the judge was
influenced or his purpose to do his duty
obstructed or restrained by the publ
cations and therefore there was no
proof tending to show the wrong COM
planned of.
But here again not the influence
upon the mind Of the particular Judge
is the criterion, but the reasonable
tendency of the acts done to influence
or bring about the baIeful result is the
test
Declaring 1t contrary OF practices II

senting opinion declared he was I'M.
able ito find anything that obstructet
the administration of justice in any
sense" in this case.
He added he believed it impossible
ito believe that such a Judge could
have found in anything that wa:
printed even a tendency to prevent his
performing his sworn duty

ARMOUR TO ISSUE BONDS.
Will Become stockhoIding Firm In
stead Of Closed Corporation.

stead Of Closed Corporation.
Chicago, June Ill. Ogden Armour
announced yesterday that Armour &,
Co. has decided to change from a
closed corporal ton to stockholding
concern. An issue of 100000. 900 6 per
cent debenture bonds is announced.
The new capital will be used to handle
war orders.
The entire sso,ooo0O0 issue Is to be
handled by Chicago flnanciers and
thus becomes the largest financial deal
ever projected outside Of New York
City. 1t Is regarded among bankers as
indicative Of the growing capacity OF
Chicago to swing negotiations Of all
most limitless magnitude.
In a statement from Armour & Co.
it is explained that in order to better
care for expansion and war obligations
imposed by war necessities, the-com-
pany has sold to syndicate of banks
and bankers an issue of s60,000,o00 6
per cent serial convertible gold deben-
lures, the syndicate being composed Of
the Continental and Commercial Ma
tional Bank, Continental and CONNER
cial Trust and Savings Bank, First
National Bank, First Trust and Saw
ings Bank, Illinois Trust and Savings
Bank, Merchants Loan and Trust
Company and Halsey, Stuart & Co.
The debentures will be dated June
Is, 1918. and will mature in six annual
installments, $4,000, 600 each June 10.
1919 to 1924, inclusive, callable at par
at the option Of the company on sixty
days notice.
They will be convertible at any time
at the option Of the holder at par into
Z per cent cumulative preferred stock
of Armour & Co. of an issue to be
listed on the stock exchange OF Chi
cago and New York.
The debentpres will be direct obliga-
lions of Armour & Co.. with total as
sets of ss14,174.135 SO and with no lien
on its property except its first closed
mortgage dated June 1, 1909 due June
/, 1880 for $4,000 900. The entire
proceeds Of the issue will be devoted
to the reduction of the companys cur
rent liabilities.
81 am greatly pleased that Chicago
has reached that stage in it's financial
and commercial development" said Mr..
Armour, when our local banking in
situations can fnance-tran sactions OF
this magnitude. I predict this will be
the forerunner Of many transactions
of like or greater size handled by Chi
cago bankers.
Armour & Co., due to the war. have
had tremendous demands made on
them for working capital, this In epite
of the fact that in the last three years,
from the net earnings Of over $4,000, :
600 in that period more than $46.0oo-
600 has been retained and re-invested
in the business"
The syndicate will offer the new
securities for public subscription as
soon as certain formalities are com
piled with, among others being the
securing of approval Of the capital is

corporation at Washington.

JAP TROOPS TO SIBERIA.
Force Believed TO Be Going to Aic
General Semenoff.

| General SemenoH.
Hardin, Manchuria, Wednesday, June
5.-Delayed-Althoi 1t has been reported
that General SemenoH. commander OF
the forces operating against the boil
sheviki in Siberia, Is hourly in expec-
tation Of Japanese troops to support
him, there is no confirmation that these
troops actually are on the way.
It has been learned, however, that
strong recommendations have been
made by the diplomatic corps for the
Immediate Intervention Of the Japanese
in the face of the growing German
menace These recommendations have
been forwarded to the governments OF
the respective diplomats, including the
Washington government.
What seemingly lends color to Cen
eral Semenofrs announcement Of ex-
fpected japanese support Is an order
issue by the railway authorities pro-
hibiting freight shipments between
Hardin and Chang Chung for eigh,
days. There also are rumors that the
railway has received Instructions to
prepare for the early transportation OF
q large force from Chang Chung. Re-
ports OF Japanese military movements
are officially denied. but it is admitted
that definite operations by China and
Japan. with allied cooperation, are I'M
minent.
General Semenoff has driven bach
the Russian troops which had crossed
the Onon river. in Transatlantic. Ad-
vices received here from the lighting
zone, however. say that Semenon is
facing heavy odds.
Admiral Kolchak, former commander
of the Russian Black sea feet and now
commanding the forces protecting the
Chinese Eastern railway in Manchurta
has Joined forces with those Of Colone,
Orion and has massed his battalions a,
Pogranitchnaya for an offensive move
ment against the bolshevik troops or
the railroad running to Vladivostok.
Admiral Kolchak has 1900 Russians
and 600 Chinese, and also a Chinese in
dependent command of $500 mer
guarding the frontier. General Kalma-
koff, with 200 Russians, Is cooperating
with Kolchak at Pogranitchnaya.
The Bolshevik troops are massed al
Grodokova, five miles from Pogranitch-
maya. It is reported their forces in
clude 800 armed Teuton prisoners, ant
that they are supported by large
force at Nikolsk. near Vladivostok. The
Chinese troops will not take an active
part in the offensive. combining theil
operations to guarding the railway.
