 The Circuit Court declared, con- ceding the Commissioner erred in the manner of empaneling a jury which convicted the petitioner, was an error within and not without his jurisdiction but the remedy should have been an appear of yer dict or writ of error and not by habeas corpus.

AFRICAN REBELS
COWED BY ITALY
Natives of Cyrenaica Warned
i Against Ever Taking Up
Arms Again.
BY the Associated Press.

BENGASI, Cyrenaica, August 18-
There are no two sides to the peace
brought about in this African colony by
triumph of italian arms. The defeated
rebel tribesmen are thoroughly cowed.
and the big stick waves constantly over
their heads to keep them in that state.
The thousands who were confined in
italian prison concentration camps
during the 10 years of guerrilla war
fare are being released by lots-always
with the admonition that II they ever
take up arms again against Italy, their
punishment will be severe.
General Warns Natives.
Gen. Rodolfo Graziani, who headed
the campaign that brought the long
struggle to a disas' GUS termination for
the rebels, made : governments atti-
natives released from a camp near Ben
gasi
Remember we'll" he warned, that
your every act will be noted when you
return to your homes in the oases. At
the first sign of trouble you will be
consigned to special courts-not sent
again to a comfortable confinement
camp.
Those Of your people who still re-
main in the camps will be freed only
when I am assured that the last rifle
and the last cartridge in existence
among your countrymen has been hand
ed over to the Italian authorities"

As an added warning he reminded
them that a barbed-wire ENHANCEMENT
stretches over the entire $50 miles of
accessible bOrderline between Cyrenaica
and Egypt and that attempts In the past
to flee through this barrier almost in
variably had resulted in either the cap
ture or death of the fugitives.
Grazianis idea of erecting the en-
tanglement is credited in military cir
cles with being the chief factor that
brought the war to an end. Previously
bands of tribesmen after raiding incur
sions into Cyrenaica scooted across the
border and found refuge in Egypt.
The barrier. constantly patrolled, cut
of their retreat and allowed the Italians
to hunt down and wipe out the bands
remaining in Cyrenaican territory.
