A POLICE JUSTICE CENsURED.

JUDGE DoNoHUE SUMMONS JUSTICE SMITH BEFORE
HIM TO EXPLAIN A COMMITMENT.
The case of Mary Wilson, alias Libby Doris,
which before Judge DOnohue on Tuesday on haDeas
corpus, bids fair to make stir in legal and political
circles. 1t will remembered that on Tuesday woman
calling herself Mary Wilson taken into Court on
habeas corpus by Mr. McCelland who denied the truth
Of statement in the return record sent In by the
committing magistrate Justice Smith, that there had
been a regular complaint made and evidence produced
as basis OF the committal MI Dana OF the District
Attorneys Office could then say whether any com
plant or appeared before Justice Smith, and
could only produce record OF the prisoners conviction
in 1872 before Judge Bedford for grand larceny and her
discharge on her own recognizance. The Court then
gave another order to REALTORS counsel, commanding
Justice Smith send in additional information 10 the
commitment.
The case came up In Chambers yesterday morning,
and Mr.. McClelland reported that he had spoken to
Justice Smith on Tuesday evening" but could get no
further return from him.
Judge Donohue, with some warmth, commented on
the police magistrates have Of their power to
commit prisoners SAID lie thought this ought
to be sent back to the Police Magistrate in way that
would teach him lesson. THIS matter that should
be sifed 1t was such he heard OF before
under any administration and the Court would grant
subpoena 10 REALTORS counsel, bring Judge Smith up
for examination at .. m.
Mr. McCleland with some hesitation, remarked that
the position OF counsel q peculiar one and he
thought the Court would appreciate It,
Judge DOnOhue said that he perfectly understood IT,,
but the matter that ought to DC thoroughly
sted, and unless tho District Attorney admitted the
turn TO be false the Court would District Attor
ney TO submit the papers TO the Grand Jury.
Mr.. Dana--I know nothing about what was done in
the Police Court all can do is to produce record OF
the office, that the prisoner pleaded guilty to ndic
for grand larceny and as the accused ia before
the Court, think the Court ought to hold her.
Judge Donohue,what, on that commitment
Mr.. Dana-On that indictment.
Judge Donohue-To have before 10 commitment
which it is admitted has not word Of truth In it, ad-
ding little to the difficulties OF the Court do think
that it is the time-a least is the first time my
experence-in the administration OF justice, that
record has been produced in which the public authOri
ties had admit, substantially, that there wasn't
word OF truth it, But the DstrctAttorneys office is
| In way responsible.
After some further discussion adjournment until
to-day was agreed TO. when Justice Smith Will appear
| on subphena for examination.
