COOK’S EVIDENCE STRONG FOR SCHLEY: CASE OF THE GOVERNMENT NOW ENDED JUDGE, INSCATHING WORDS, SENDS MOST UP FOR YEAR. “No Anarchist Should Breathe the Free Air of America,” Says Justice Hinsdale. Herr Johann Mos,t the Anarchist, wae Bentenced in the Court of Special Ses- sions to-day ta serve one year in the penitentiary for publishing In his pape Yhe Fretheit, just previous to the as- :wassination of President McKinley, an aricle entitled “Murder vs. Murder.” ‘The blatant advocate of violence al- " nost fainted when the rigor of the sen- fence was made plain to him. He collapsed completely on his way to} @he Tombs, prociatming in a tearful !wotes that he meant no harm. H Anarchy Denonnced. In sentencing Most, the Justices uf @he Court of Special Sessions delivered ww scathing denunciation of Anarchy and dts principles. They expressed the hope that the laws lof the nation will be so amended that }men of the etamp of Most will not be igllowed to live in the United States. Most, who was tried last week ‘for a violation of Section 5 of the Penal Code—practically disordariy con- duct—came tnto court with a jaunty air. He had been out on bail and was con- fdent of acquittal. His confidence van- ished when he saw the stern faeces of Justice Hinsdale, who wrote the opinion of his guilt, end his clates, Justices Wyat: and Holbrook, i Justice Hinsdale pronounced sentence. In so doing he satd: “We have given this case careful con- aideration. You have been ably de- fended by an able lawyer and we have given due weight to the importance of he case. One Year in Prison. “We hold that the printing and publl- cation of such an article at such a time 4s a criminal act; therefore we find you guilty, and the sentence of the court ts that you shall serve one year in tho penitentiary.” The flabby countenance of the Anar-| whist took on the hue of lead. His knees Yrembled and he grasped the arm of his lawyer, Morris Hilquist. Mr. Hilquist made a motion for a certificate of rea- @onadle doubt. “Why,” sald Justice Hinsdale, “we have no doubt. One of the Justices Is ‘in favor of fining your client $500 in ad- The motion 4s denied.” ‘Mr, Hilquist then moved for a new triat and an arrest of judgment. Both motions were denicd and Most was taken to the Tombs. Am Infammatory Articte. The opinion of the court is long and | exhaustive. It quotes in full the trans- “Jation of the article which Most pub- Ushes, and then continues: “It is impossible to read the whole , article without deducing from it the Gcetrine that all rulers are enemies of mankind and ought to be hunted and destroyed ‘through blood and fron, pol- gon and dynamite.’ “It 1s no answer to the evil and ortm!- | mal nature of this article to claim that ‘it was written for the purpose of de- ' etroying crowned heads. “It inculcates and enforces the idea that murder Is the proper remedy to bo applied against rulers, and the fact hat it was published fifty years ago and gives added point iene’ epimninaty of Fepublishing it at eH. thews the deliberate Intent to in- ulcate aa and promulgate the doctrine of Y je. we hold to bo a criminal act. jot necessary to trace any wonnec- in this ‘article with the assaxssina- The offense he eye of ‘the law 1s practi- 2eiS ‘the same as if thar event had 1 never occu : Digbolical Doctrines.

Justice Hinsdale, who sentenced Herr Most to prison to~lay, Penal Code under which the prisoner was found guilty. Here it “A person who wilfully and wrongfully commits any act which seriously injures the person or property of another, or whicti seri- ously disturbs or endangers the public peace or health, or which + outrages public decency, for which no other punishment is expressly when he quoted a section of the of a misdemeanor.” oEWMG WORTH 10,000 GONE Mrs. Graeme Harrison Is Robbed on Train Coming to This-City.
