“KNOCK-OUT FINES.
Heavy tines were inflicted at Bowstreet on the National Labour Press and three men, who were charged with printing and circulating a pamphlet, “The Knock-out Blow,” calculated to cause disaffection.
The National Labour Press, which by omitting to print its name on 52,000 copies of the pamphlet, had rendered itself liable to a penalty of £1,040,000, was lined £BO and £2l costs; James Evans. £120; Charles William Daniels £80; and William Francis Moss £SO, with £lO 10s costs in each case.
Time was given for payment, but Evans declared at once that he could not pay, and did not want time, and he was therefore sentenced to three months imprisonment.
