The motion to arrest the U. s. Marshal and Par
con Dennison, was argued before Judge Parker
Mr.. Chase contended that the responses of these
individuals "a well as their whole course of con.
duct, showed a deliberate attompt to violate the
srder Of the court.
The Marshal responded by the admission of the
scisure of Rosetta after her delivery to Mr.. Var
Slyko, aud justified himself on the ground tina,
he was Sut executing his Office as U. s. Marshal
Donnison replied that he felt bound to prosecute
bis legal claim to the utmost, as he was the repre-
sentative OF a large body Of loyal, union loving
people. After argument from lawyers Cd both
sides, Judge Walker said in conclusion
"A great deal has been said about comfy
but that was a reciprocal matter and to use ar
pld adago, what was sauce for the goose was
sauce for the g~ander." lie sur posed it would
be claimed the United States was the gander
and Ohio the goose. (Laughter.) But our State
owes no more comfy to the United States than

Judge Parker announced the decision would
be rendered on Monday morning.
MONDAY, APRIL On.
Judge Parker dismissed the case for contemp'
against Marshal iRobinson and Rev. Dennison
.Ho decided that the re-arrost of the marshal wa
not a contempt, inasmuch as the order of the cour
was fully executed previous to the last arrest
The act of the Marshal though not q contemp
was illegal and subjected him to the penalties o
the law for false Imprisonment.
In the afternoon Judge Parker heard the .answe
Of the marshal to the second writ of Habeas Cor
pus, which was, that he would not produce th
body of Rosetta. For this contempt Judge Parke
sentenced him to pay a fine of fifty dollars and b
imprisoned till the order to produce the girl wa
complied with. The marshal was imprisoned blu
Immediately released on a writ of Habeas Corpu
Issued by Judge Mclean of the U. S. Court. Thi
question involves the ~propriety of Judge Parkers
interference in the case or in other words the su
premacy of the U. S. commissioner court, owe
all state authority in similar cases.
