The Supreme Court on meeting for

decision in the matter Of the application
of Nicholas Kemp, enc of the persons
arrested for participating in the anti-draft
riot at Ozaukee. and now held in custody
at Camp Randall by Gen. Elliott, com
manding the department of the North
west in the absence of Gen. Pope.
The Court was unanimous in decar-
ing that the suspension of the writ of
hae5aS corpus is a power residing in
Congress alone, all the judges reading
opinion to that effect.
Chief Justice Dixon in his opinion ex-
pressed his regret that Congress had not

The Chief Justice then alluded fothe
oninion of Attorney General Bates and
conflicting opinions in regard TO the ro~
er Of the President to suspend the writ OF
ha5eas corpas. In the opinion OF tho
Chief Justice it was a Legislative and not
political act.
He admitted the right of military
commander to refuse obedience to the
mandates of court when justified by
the exigencies Of war. Martial law did
not prevail III Wisconsin. II was restrict
ed to the portions ofthe country where
the civil authorities are not able by ordi-
nary legal process to preserve order.
These opinions were expressed, (the
Chief Justice added) without the slightest
disrcspect 10 the President, who has in
all his actions been governed by the high
est motives of patriotism. public honor,
and fidelity to the constitution and laws.
The Chef Justice spoke of eXtraordi-
nary condition of the country at the
time The President issued his proclama-
ton suspcndfng the writ of habeas corpus
and added that if he transcribed his pow
~ he had doubtless committed an unln-
territorial error which he would be the
first to repair. The Chief Justice cos
GUIDED:
at follows that in my judgement the
return Of Gen. Elliott shows no sufficient
cause for the detention of the Petitioner,
or why should he refuse to produce his
body before this Court, but rs the issue
ing Of the attachment at the present
time may lead to serious and most un-
