Chief Justice Chaso and the Writ Of Hab-
ems Corpus In tho case Of JEFF. Davis.
New YORK, May To- The Times
special says Chief Justice Chase had
nothing whatever to do with the issue
of the writ Of habeas corpus in the case
of jeff. Davis, and that his name was
attached rs q mere form. The Com
mander Of Fortress Monroe will put the
| prisoner in the hands Of the United
States Marshal, who will be held re-
sponsible for his custody. Davis will
be furnished with rooms at the Spots
wood Hotel in Richmond until after the
hearing of the return to the writ. Thus
Government does not release its hold
upon the prisoner, and the matter OF
bail has not been thought of. The case
is one merely rs to why Government
holds the prisoner. The report that
Chief Justice Chase is to 20 to Rich
mond is unfounded. He knew nothing
| of the issue of the writ in the Davis case
until after its issue.
