EUROPEAN IN NATIVE AREAS.
BECHUANALAND INCIDENTS
(United Press Association —Copyright) (Received This Day, 9.0 a.m.) CAPE TOWN, September 13.
Phineas Mcintosh was sentenced at Palapye to banishment from all native territory. He admitted having assaulted a native who hit a native woman with whom Mcintosh was living in the native settlement.
The official evidence gave a deplorable account of Mcintosh's .relations with women.
The sentence has given general satisfaction.
The Resident Commissioner of Bechuanaland has served on Chief Tshedi an order limiting his movements within the area of Palapye camp and suspending his chieftainship, pending the result of the inquiry into the native Court's action in imposing lashes in the case of Mcintosh.
A cablegram published on Tuesday stated:
Two hundred marines, with two howitzers, entrained for Bcchuanaland as an escort to Admiral El. R. S. P. Eyans (Commander-in-Chief), who is on his way to investigate the flogging of a European by order of a native Court. The European, Phineas Mcintosh, was charged with immorality against natives. The chief, Tshekedi, informed the Europeans after the trial that Mcintosh, his brother, and another were repeatedly before him on similar charges.
