present Criminal Sittings occupy an tmeovitoble position in the erimiaal annals of Booth Anstraa Thelengthened trial for murder which occupied the atten tion tbe Court during tbe 0nt half of the week wm mceedsd on Thursday by another The prisoner William Burna a seaman wm charged with the murder of Henry Loton the second officer of the British ship Douglas on the high seas in September Lrt The facts were reported when the vessel arrisd a week ur two sinoe The prisoner was brought before the Poboe Court and wm committed to take bis trial Inorder that the witneaees might be detained short a time poeriUe it was arranged that the trial should take place at tbe present Criminal tiittinp end yesterday the cmo wm heard before the Chief Justice As the oimo wm committed a British ship the Supreme Court of South Australia which ce of tbe British dependenciM han by Imperial legislation the power to tiy tbe case This however constituted one of the special featurre of the cese that ft wm an offence committed not in South AustraKin territory but in a British ship on the high seas Another noteworthy feature of the case wm that in the trial which iuimeoiately preceded it the accused per son himself elected to give evidence There ia no doubt an advantage in bearing the accused penon give lus own version of what occurred and it must bo admitted that the Crown Solicitor did not unduly toko odvMtojo of his right to CTocB eaumino It is worthy however that one of Che answers given by the prisoner to tbe Oown Sob dtor invested bis set more dearly with the guilt cl murder than did hie answers during his examination in chief In the ends of justice this is a desirable cad to attain and the testimony of other witnesses corroborated this one par ticular what the prisoner said there a no room for the merely sentimental ob jection the operation of the Accused Persons Evidence Act that it may entrap a prisoner into admiaaiou which may be fatal to him Ths etas wm in all respseto a much ampler one than that which engaged the attention ol the Court duimg the eartier part of the week That the unfortunate second ofiicerof the Douglas and killed by Bum wm clear beyond the fe'ntest shadow of a doubt The prisoner admitted and it was corroborated by the evidence of tbe other witnessus The terrible acene occupied only a few seconds and all the facts lay within a very compass The prisoner with the others in his watch had received a certain order which wm subse quently modified Thereupon according to the evidence of all tbe witneaaea except the prisoner the latter used very insult ing language to the officer Tbe officer twins a gesture which it ia stated wm customaty with him said to the prisoner Buras I want mme of your cheek" Upon thia Burns st once drew his knife and stabbed the unfortunate officer in the neck with such fatal effect that he almost in stantly expired There are only one or two points about which there was any conflict cd evidence the dtecrepaiMie being between the statements of Bums himself and those of the other witneaaea Bums alleges that Mr Loton the officer struck him but the weight of testimony was against thia and the relative position of the parties at the time renders it highly improbable Boids Ik alleges that ho did not make an insulting reply when the counter order wm given but hers again his statement ia at variaic i with that of the other a itnersea who do not appear to have bad any motive for wishing to get their comrade into trouble and whose evidence ia therefore entitled to belief According to then testimony Burna wm the aggressor ho gave the first cause for provocation it seems highly im probable that be wm struck by the officer and yet he instantly stabbed the unfortu nate man when the latter protected against his insolence It win be observed too that according to the own admission his knife wm in the sheath and he had to draw it before inflicting the fatal wound Not only were all the facte within a narrow conrpscs but there wm but little difficxky ia deciding that ths crime wm murder and not manalaughter There was nothing to show that the second officer had been unreasonably severe with the men Indeed the evidence including that of the prisoner rather pointed in the other direction Even supposing too that Burna had actu Hy been struck by his officer it is dif ficult to regard that as a sufficient provocation for the use of the knife Us English love of fair play roooila from tbs me of the knife a weapon of effeoee cr defence and art from the qwetion of the legal os moral guilt of th prisoners action his ctmduct would meet but little sympathy In this particular case too other oonrideratioM have to be tsken into account On board ship it fa essential that strict discipline should be main tained TTifa of couree would be simply impible if he gave an order please some of the to be stabbed Bi utal Burns was it romra a darker hue from the rircawMancea under it took place and to allow hfa atoa to go un punished would be mischievous in the extrtan At the asms time ft fa not desirable tlU the crime of tbe prisoner sbmdd be made out to be mors aggra vated than it really wm We observe that cease stress wm laid upc the fact that Loton wm not merely etabbed but that the knife appeared to hav been turned round while in his neck It does not ncmsaiily follow that this indicated special cruelty and malice on the part of Bun It fa quite coacmv that the offioer feeling if In Hew of tbe proeoet extremely tales Um QCEENSLAND MORTGAGE OOMPANT dniro to caD stteBtkB to thetr now taviu

respoclful languaj to being indulged in have already re ferred to th repreeoDtatioM of th in fluential resident who waited upon the bon gentleman at Mount Gambier The interview there wm of a vwy friendly character although it dealt with cm or two critical queetim ef policy Subie quently Mr Catt visited Millirent a township which seems always able to collect an influential deputation upon the shorteat poseiH notice Here he wm lectured and croea examined aad made acquainted with a long string cf local grievances not of which ft must be confessed were fully substantiated by the evidence brought forward by the various speaker The chief ground of complaint had reference to the drainage works It hu been tbe bane of dra'naje operations in the South Er 't that they bare from first to last been earned out in a desultory and fragmental way Instead of being con ducted iu accordance with a genera) and comprehensive scheme such as that sketched by the Surveyor General suecea tive Govermnento have wierely provided funds for draining particular localitto Tbe sonsequence baa been that tu part of the work Ins been formed lands been have who moot the drains prove large enough cany off all the water at other times it accumulates and renders profitable cultivation fmpouible The Commfanoner promises that all this shaD be Let right if only the people have patience but con sidering the delays that have taken place in the part it ia Dot surprising that they should be outspoken and importueate One of tbe grievance dwelt upon by the deputation wm that the stock of th eettien wm 'uipounded for trespassing upon unfenced drains and the CoMurasiaaer wm uigrd to have the diains enckmed This he positively refused to do on the score of expense end yet tbe request does not appear to be an unreasonable one Surely the mun cbsnnda upon which tbe whole system depends should have some better protection against stray cattle than is afforded by the vigHance of the Crown Ironda Ranger armed with authority to impound the trespassera and get their owners fined rom Millieent the Commissioner made his ray to Narracoorte only to find him self assailed by a deputation mare voluble and more outspoken even than that from which he had escaped He wm first of al invited to explain his conduct regard ing the Robertson lands These it wiH be ranembeKd were originally offered for lease without of course any covenanta as to cultivation or nsifowi a Owing to wiputtsntatiore from the district a portion of them were withdrawn with a view to thsir being offered for eclec tic The deputation Dow Mled that the whole of them should be raeerved for agricultural usee and Mr Catt although peraonaDy convinced that the demand fa unreasonable very properly undertook to accede to ft con tenting himself by warning in ten ling selectors that if they took up the land the eruditions of cultivation would be rigorously enforced This following closely upon the bon gentleman's promise to seek further legislative authority for the relaxation of tit condition of culti vation give the impreaeion that he feel a tittle piqued at the persistency with which his proposal to lease the land Lm been resisted Speaking upon the rabbit question tuemben of the deputa tion brought against the Crown Lands Department the charge that favouritism had been shown to large pro prietora The Commfationer while repelling th imputation wisely con Bested to make further enquiry into the matter Be abo took occasion to refer to hfa mission across the Border which he explained had resulted in an arrangement with the Victorian Com missioner for the joint destiuction of rabbits on both sides of the boundary tine This will be good news fur South Eastern eettlera who while sub jected to the Decemty of rtroying rabbits on their own land have had the mortification of knowing that near to them are breeding ground where the creature are left quite unmetarted It i satisfactory to learn that the Victorian oister Em recognised the justice of the request that stop should be put to this state of thittga aad ft fa to be hoped that his ndertakingtoco operate with the Seuth Australian Government will be more faith fully observed than has been the undertak ing entered into regarding the phylloxera infected VHieyxrds of the Geelong dis trict It fa not Deceasaiy to refer to some of the other matteis to which the attention of the CosuDMakmer wm called by the Narracoorte deputation they are simply of local importance One other wut however of general interest wm allotted to The rotiilonte in

upon the advantage which it offers to tbe dara it fa specially intended to benefit becauM if by this time the inrtitutkin cannot speak for itself and is not backed np by the recommendations of those

twelve montha but hra made a alight profit Complaints have frequently been made that the Club to tn an inconvenient position and we think there can be no doubt that if it were in some more centra) locality it would be mure largely patronised It appears that several attempts have been made to secure a better site bat without raccesa Either the locality had nothing special to reoommend it or tbe price asked wm too high Ae the present premises are with the ex ception of their locality eonvenusrt end well suited foe to purposes for which they are used and the property is yearly ineresmng in

they had in view an extension of their premises in readme for th Jubilee Exhibition in Of course if this is contemplated it would almtttt settle the question of removing to snother locality At any

amongst Civil tervanta of the fnst c'ass Tbe work they have to perform is of a delicate ro flMaaible and arduous character and if they are worthy of the confidence reposed in them by the department they enould be well pud and treated with distinction There is at first sight something anoma lous in selecting for an alteration in the status of the Inspectors a time like the present when the report of the Education Lomwwrionen which will necessarily briij order redew the conduct and competency of those officers ia it may be assumed in contra of preparation but in reality ft to due to the office that those who occupy it should be in the highest grade Tbe only wonder to that tbe recognition now sooorded to the Inspectors has not been granted before It biu been often enough nought under the notice of the Govern ment in addition to which repreeen tationa have been wade as to tbe low nea ot tbe salat es received by the Inspectou The seniority for mally conferred upon Mr Dewirnrt to a fitting acknowledgment to his long and faithful services or mon than twenty he has been an spcctor and the capacity he hra shown to adapt himself to the VMtly changed conditions of our educational system strengthens hfa riatm to oontidenttmn It to certain that unless he is now qualified for the poet of Senior Inspector it to time that he retired altogether We have alluded to the report of the Education Commission and we foul justifad in mentioning the subject agair in order to point out that that report may now be considered fully due Before Parliament race a month or more ago ft wm stated that the Commission would very soon dose its labours and ths time that has been spent upon the work ought to have been sufficiently long for the purposes of a very exhaustive enquiry We ttett that tbe report sill speedily be forthcoming and that it will deal tren chantly and atthe same time suggestively with the weak points in the fating stem Ktl Sfpfcra 90 Pratt Dnad 648 TO ttfatmnoer
