INDETERMINATE SENTENCES.
PBB PBESS ASSOCIATION, | Wellington, May 11. A Reputation from the Council of Churches waited on the Minister for Justice to-day and urged upon him the desirableness of introducing the system of indeterminate sentences in the case of habitual criminals. The Minister, in reply, said he intended to place proposals before the Ministry on the subjeot, and he hoped something of ralue would be evolved. It would be hard if a prisoner, even if a bad man, should have no chance of liberation after conviction. He thought it would be a good thing if the causes of criminality were investigated. Special knowledge on this subject should be cultivated at the university.
