'I lie meaning of an order that a ]>i iscmer shall come up fur sentence when called upon was explained hy Mr •Justice Al|>ers at Auckland on Tuesday, when imposing this punishment upon a Chinese oll’euder under the bankruptcy laws. Its effect, said his Honour wa.-, that if the prisoner .trot into trouble attain say, hy im lining nnwarrantahle debts, or entering upon speculative husine-s transactions—he could, on the slightest complaint by those concerned, he properly brought before the Court for sentence upon the present charges. Th Court would not have to wait for him to commit another crime, reports the “New Zealand Herald.” The moment he was caught speculatin'; in silk or fruit, lie could he sentenced on the charge now proved against him. The knowledge of a prisoner that proved charges were hanging over his head should help to keep him on the straight path of commercial honesty.
