SUPREME COURT.
SENTENCED FOR STABBING. By Telegraph—Press Association. Hamilton, Last Night. Axel Suertninge was sentenced on charges of stabbing at Frankton Junction to three years on each, sentences to be cumulative and ten years for reformative treatment. Herbert Pyke, for blackmail, received two years' imprisonment. AUCKLAND SESSIONS. Auckland, Monday. In the Supreme Court, William James Courtney, for. theft of whisky, wine and spirits, by ordering from merchants and selling them, making it appear that the goods were for his father, was sentenced to four years' reformatory treatment. The judge would not consider a request to modify the sentence on condition that prisoner left New Zealand. It was, he said, making a serious request to ask him to pass this man on to some other country. He might just as well redeem his life in this country.
