SECOND DISPATCH.
PHILADELPHIA. Thursday, Jan. 20, 1909
The course of Judge Ludlow in relation to he ar
rest Of Mr. Boileau, the proprietor of TIE Php9det'
piia Ereang Journal is the subject Of conversation
everywhere and excites universal attention.
| TIE high character OF Judge Ludlow as an im-
partial magistrate gives his decree considerable in-
1uence.
In his address % the Grand jury be 'ts.ed that It
had come 70 his knowledge that within the last
twenty -four hours, q citizen Of the Commonwealth
and this County had been suddenly arrested, ct his
residence, in this city, and forcby carried, against
his will beyond the mi!sof this State and jurisdc-
ton OF this Court.

we have been anxious to supper; the United States
Government in every way compatible With the
proper discharge OF our duty, We were cot inclined
to believe that those in sutbority would attempt to
exercise pow or under all circumstances qnesion'
able and delicate, when temporary excitement had
Qiyen way to reason, and patriotic, and believe,
an honest desire to do great public duty had
resolved itseIf into settled purpose 10 discharge
that duty according to a~, and with al lear deceat
respect for the laws Of this Commonwealth and for
ire constituted authorities Of the State.
TIE time has arrived when We can no longer bold
our peace, when the Obligations imposed upon us by
our osihs Of Office compel us, Ct every hszard, TO
direct the Grand Jury to inquire into and determine
BY whose order aud by what persons thr arrest has
been made and il, after an impartial examination
!, saal appear that any citizen has boon forcibly ab-
Quoted from tho county, to inform the Grand Jury
that it il their duty present the facts in the case
10 the Court, where bills Of indictment may be
framed. aud the accused persons ii they have CON.
m,ted crime, be tried, and If guilty be punished,
for what, in that event may become criminal net.
Judge Ludlow then quoted from The Constitution
Of the United States and the Constitution OF the
! Commonwealth, TO show that the inestimHble
rights Of On speedy and public tial are gnAran-
teed TO every citizen by both instruments
Judge Ludlow aso quoted from the decisions OF
The Supreme Cont Of Pennsylvania, TO snow the
course to be taken in tgal for treason.
