and most natural question which arises is, How comes it that the trial was not proceeded with Secondly, How comes it that during a period of
six months the police authorities were not able to get, hold of
e definite information pointing to the guilt, or innocence of the prisoners? We may state in passing that during the investi gations which took place we were re- quested not to make public the informa
tion which had reached us, last it should embarrass the ends of justice; and yet six months afterwards we find the mes discharged without a word! If there were aufficient evidence to justify sich a long detention the case should have been proceeded with. If there were not, the prisoners should have been months ago released. We have not the faintest
sympathy for them as individuals, for they were "suspicious characters." But proceeding such as this tends to bring the administration of justice into con tempt amongst the native population,
