Die letzten Freischärler

* Bern, 8 January. The local High Court, in the second instance, has sentenced Messrs J. Ph. Becker and H. Hattemer in Biel, the former to one year’s, the latter to six months’ banishment from the canton, for founding the defence league “Hilf Dir”. The other accused have been acquitted. Thus the famous affair of the much-talked-of third free-corps expedition has come to an end, and the Central Authority may now once again devote all its precious time to the German imperial question and the German fleet. God bless its arduous efforts for the salvation of the “common fatherland”.
