TEN SZOWAWAYS..!
Ten natives, of different occupations, were charged with towing away on the steamer Loongrang Victoria Harbour on the 1st uit. and obtaining a surreptitious
passage to Manila.
Mr. Graham Selwyn Weigall, master of the Loongsang, stated that when the vessel ar- rived at Manila on the 24th alt five of the defendants were found in the quartermaster's room, and on the next day the remaining five were discovered by the secret service police of Manila
d they had each Bix of
ould the defendants paid 820 to different members of the crew to be taken to banila; the others, that the steamer sailed as they were bidding friends good-bye.
His Worship Although there men have committed an offence by doing what they did, I say now, as I have always said in these cases, that those really to blame are the crew of the ship, who undertake for a certain sum-I see the price has gone up to 320; it usually was Si to get these men into famils Self, the defendents knew very well they were commit ting a breach of the law, and I fine ench the sum of 25 or 14 days hard labour.
Addressing Mr. Weigall, his Worship said........... I can't help thinking it is possible to see that these men are not on the ship. You say they come on boast at the ship is leaving, but surely you are able to spare a couple of men to see they do not get on board.
Mr. Weigall-But, your Worship, we always have a number of deck-passengers, and I can't tell the difference between them and men like the defendants
His
Worship Yes, that is so.
THE OUTBREAK IN VICTORIA GOAL. The three long-sentence prisoners; who matinied in Vlotoris Clost that wook and war- derously attacked Mr. R. H. Craig, assistant superintendent, and Mr. Pierpoint, chief warder, wounding them with knives, the former severely, were charged yesterday afternoon with attempt ed murder. Captain Superintendent May pro- secuted. Mr. Craig, who attended to give evidence, had his hezil bandaged.
The three convicts, handcuffed securely to- gother, were conducted into court by an armed nonstable, and placed in the dock, at each end of which a guard was not.
His Worship, on taking his seat, pointed out to Mr. May that it was opposed to principle to have prisoners, manadled in the dock. The kandcuffs were accordingly taken off, but the prisoners were secured by their queues. They admitted the crime when the charge had been read over. An
prisoner has completed three years of his
Bentance.

The second and third defendanta naked similar "quaations. All three, by their tons and bearing. appeared to be animated by deep hatred of the witness.""
An Indian assistant wardler, whose left wrist was bound up where it had boon cut during the struggle, gave evidence of the attack and the rescue. Ho caught hold of the second defend ant and knocked him down, but received a cut on the wrist from the prisoner's knife in the scuffle, and also had his coat and trensers cat.
The three defendants, when asked if they had any questions, said the witness was cut because he interfered to save Mr. Craig. The he be interfered that he was nigry witness had been cut.

The second, who was sentenced to fourteen years hard labour for armed robbery in a dwelling. house, when a murder was committed, has been in goal for about six years, and the third has completed one year of three-years sentence for forgery.
