ROME, January l2.-with the cstab-
the auspices of the Press Association of
Italy, another important step has been
made toward the suppression OF ducls
us tho best means of settling private
Guarrcls among the members Of the
journalistic profession.
To-day the ethics of the profession
made II imperative for newspaper men
who have been offended either in pri-
waite or in public by Il colleague or an
outsider To send seconds To the Of
fender unless they prefer TO answer
before tho tribunal of public opinion
to the charge OF cowardicc and thus
ruin their good names forever.
Under the Italian penal code, dualling
is strictly forbidden, and ho who fights
a duel and wounds his adversary is
amcnable To the same penalty that is
meter out to the man charged with Il
crime committed under radically diff
fcrent circumstances. Notwithstand-
ing the drastic provisions of the penal
cadc, dueliing has always been in high
favor among the aristocratic and intel
lcctual classes of the nation, to say
nothing OF the army.
The Court of Honor has been chiefly
established to make the Jury OF Honor
IA permanent institution and also extend
its power and jurisdiction. The court
is composed of five judges.
Any member OF the Press Associat ion
or kindred organizations can submit
his ease To tho court, which has full
Judicial power. IL can summon wit
ncsscs. ask the parties involved TO sub
NIT briefs and appoint experts TO pass
on technical questions. The services
of the court are absolutely free Its
jurisdiction has been extended to
charges OF libel and slandcr. with l.
view to keep these cases out of the
