ALBANY, November 4.-The inquest in the

out any apparent motive used club 10 inAict

alleged by his friends that he is insane but il is

[BoUBTH DFsPATCH.1
The Proceedings In the Court of Appeals
This Morning.
COURT Room, 10 O'Clock. After some further
waiting, and the prisoners not appearing, Mr..
Horwitz, on behalf of Sheriff Thompson, said :
We have now waited one hour and half after
the hour named for the return of the writ. 1t
was apparent that the Warden was seeking
pretexts for delay.
He had come to the Court House early with
the prisoners, for the Criminal Court, which
did not meet for an hour or more after this
court, and had not brought the prisoners, on
whose behalf the writ of ha0eas corpus had
been issued.
1t was frivolous in him to say that he had not
sufficient room in his conveyance to bring them,
but he added that they were not without a
remedy. The law made it the duty of the
Warden to make prompt return, or show some
good and sufficient reason for the delay.
He, therefore, had, on behalf of his client,
the High Sheriff. prepared a petition that his
Honor would command the Deputy Sheriff to
forthwith bring the Warden before the Court,
together with the High Sheriff.
Mr.. Scbley said he would, on behalf of his
client, have similar petition to offer.
Mr. Alexander, counsel for the Commissioners,
now appeared, and expressed desire to be heard
on the subject. He understood the Warden OF
the Jail was now in consultation with counsel,
and he had no doubt some return would shortly
be made.
Messrs. Schley, Latrobe, and Horwitz de-
sired to know whether Mr. Alexander could
inform them what the return would be.
Mr.. Alexander said he was not the counsel
for the Warden, and could not say what the
return would be. He hoped and expected,
however, that by O'Clock such return would
be made as would render any further proceed
ings mere unnecessary.
