St. Johns, N, F., March 15.—“A grave error of judgment” was com- mitted by Captain Abram Kean of the steamer Stephano and an “error of judgment” by George Tuff, chief of- ficer of the steamer Newfoundland in connection with the seal hunting op- erations which resulted in the death of seventy three members of the crew of the Newfoundland' last spring, ac- cording to the finding 6f a commis- sion, madé public today. The commission Wwas composed of Chief Justice Horwood and Justices Emerson and Johnson of the colonial supreme court. Justice Johnson dis- sented from the minority opinion that neither Kean nor Tuff was in any way to blame for the disaster. The com- mission was unanimous in holding that the loss of the sealing steamer Southern Cross with her crew of 175 men, at about the same time, ‘“‘could be ascribed only to the perils of the sea.” — DEATHS AND FUNERALS Grover Castle.

Recruiting Officer at Indianapolis Cited for Contempt of Court. ‘Washington, March 15.—The department is standing squarely be- hind Captain T. F. Ryan, recruiting officer at Indianapolis, who was re- cently cited for contempt of court for his criticism of a local judge, who at- tempted to sentence a prisoner to en- listment in the army. The captain has been instructed by the depart- ment to appear before the court and disclaim any intention of contempt, but he is to state that he acted on behalf of the federal government with a view of bringing before the public a proper conception of the attitude of the government in the matter and to represent that the action of the court is calculated to injure the army and prevent the enlistment of good men. The department of justice will as. sign to the nearest district attorney the defense of Captain Ryan, if nec- essary and the officer is instructed to decline to pay any fine, with the un- derstanding that if committed for con- tempt he will be promptly taken out under a writ of habeas corpus. war BURGLARS SECURE $100.

Special at 95c. the expense of the individual raisers of crops, but it is against the law to kill them excep: under certain conditions, and the placing of veni- bsolutely pro- new industry. The right to raise deer the same as other livestock, in an en- closure which would give them the proper protection, does not appear to be an unreasonable request. sheep are today raised for the market and the business returns a good profit to a large number of farmers. Why shouldn’t it be possible for them to raise deer under proper | be | conditions? There can certainly no more objection to the raising of deer to kill than there can be for do- ing likewise by domesticated animals. ‘lAm Though there may be less sentiment in behalf of the provision in the bill which would allow a person engaged in such business to sell shooting rights for sportsmen seeking deer because of the thickly populated conditions, there can be no apparent objection to the | idea of contributing to the supply of. fresh meat through the raising of deer. In fact it would have been better if the state’s activeness in behalf of deer had been confined to that privilege which is now being sought. The Alien Labor Law, (New York Times.) The law forbidding the employment | Interborough of aliens on public works having been | ameénded in a manner which is not by any means satisfactory, but is a re- peal in all but form, it is now in order to offer to those who produced that result the comfort which they ten- dered to the contractors who broke the law by giving employment to men | who needed it on terms acceptable to | them. The unions said that the con- tractors were not entitled to sympa- thy in the loss of a few millions through compulsion by law to pay double wages. The law was on the books and in their contracts, penalty of loss was no | and the 1 more than | was meet for lawbreakers. Well, now | the law is practically off the books, and the labor representatives who | procured its repeal through their de- | mand for its enforcement are entitled | to no more sympathy than they gave | the contractors. ; Unionists now see, or should see, that they were badly served by the enactment of the law, and even worse | served by the necessity of repealing it | in a manner which revealed the sort of legislation their leaders seek in the interest of labor. 1t is a betrayal of wage-earners, as well as inhumanity, to pass laws forbidding employment to those needing it most. It is pe- | culiarly unworthy of Americans to seek employment in that way, and it ought to be obnoxious to any f. minded worker to take wages made high by law rather than by merit. That 'is a wrong done against ev- erybody who finds it hard to earn a living. The cost of labor is almost by itself the cost of living. Laws in- creasing the cost of supporting a fami- Iy cannot be vopular with those who are complaining of how hard it is to earn a living. Laws raising the cost of public wor beyond the endur- axpavers cannot make work, and cannot long remain on the books. If the union leaders had been content with their triumph in causing such an enactment al]l might have been well. It was the insistence upon their pound of flesh which has caused the present trouble.

German Cruiser's Machinists Will Be Employed and Supplies Will Be Purchased at Newport News, Newport News, March 15 American naval experts were going ahead today with their examination of the German converted cruiser Prinz Eitel Friedrich, in dry dock here, to ascertain what repairs are required to make the vessel seaworthy, Thaey resumed thelir task despite the fact that Captain Thierichens of the Prinz Eitel has thus far failed to notify the American government of the time he desired granted for repairs, although he had been twice requested to do &0 by Norman Hamilton, collector of the port here. The digposition of Charles Frank and Robert Rogge of the crew of the American sailing ship Wm. P, Frye, destroyed by the Prinz Eitel, and de- | tained aboard the German vessel, to day hinged upon instructions from the treasury department regarding repre- sentations to be made to Captain Thierichens. Four allied warships are waiting outside the Virginia Capes for the re- appearance of the German cruiser, It is said that two of them are British and two French, It developed today that Commander Thierichens plans to make his own re- pairs’ with his own machinists and plans to get the supplies from the local shipyard. None of the repair work had been begun today, and that strengthens the belief here that the German ‘ship is to be interned. There came to light today another dramatic incident of the Eitel Fried- rich’s dash to an American port. Of- ficers of the sunk 8hips, including Captain Kiehne of the Frye, knew that the German ship was in danger of destruction. They knew the Eitel's wireless had intercepted exchanges between British warships. PLEDGED 9,000 MEN TO ASSIST ALLIES _ Former Premier of Greece Made Of- fer to Chancellories of the Triple Entente.
