NEWSPAPER REBUKED
Chief Justice Comments On Misleading Heading During yesterday's sitting of the Supreme Court, the Chief Justice, Sir Atholl", MacGregor, made the following statement in Court,
"My attention has been drawn to un article, which appeared in the Anal edition of the "Hongkong Tele- graph" of yesterday's date. It covers the report of the trial of Hò Lung- chal who yesterday, having been brought before this Court on a charge of murder, left the Court without the verdict of the Jury for the reason that it was held that this Court had no jurisdiction.
The article in question was under a caption in large letters. That cap- tion reads: "Jury's verdict saves pirate from hanging-the most im- proper article I have ever come across, There is no evidence that Ho Lung- chai was a pirate and there was no finding of the Jury to that effect nor Is there any reason whatsoever to say that the Onding of the Jury had any thing to do whatever with his inte.
"It is on the face of it manifestly a gross contempt of Court. It will be |extremely difficult for the Crown in a small Colony like this-I say this without in any way desirous of in- fluencing any action they may take 10 Initiate further proceedings
against Ho Lung-chal after the ap- pearance of an, article in terms such as these, and I mention it here and now not only to signify my own very grave disapproval of such a flagrant abuse of the privileges of the Press, but in the hopes hope which 1 trust will not be completely in vain that the representatives of the Press of this Colony will order themselves better in future and will refrain from action which is so palpably. and grossly contempt of this Court."
