THE srOREY CONTEMPT CASE.

AT the late term Of the supreme court
OF the State OF Illinois, the court unani-
mously reversed the decision Of Judge
Williams Of the Cook county criminal
court, who had found Mr.. Wilbur +.
Storey of the Times, guilty OF contempt,
and sentenced him to Jail for ten days.
The opinion of the supreme court, deliy-
cred by Judge Schoefield is, briefly, as
follows:
The articles in the Times, upon which
Judge Williams granted his decision.
censured the action of the grand jury,
questioned its integrity as body, and
indirectly attacked the moral character
OF certain Of its members; the articles APP
peared while the grand jury was in ses-
sion; Mr.. Storey had been charged with
certain "crines and oiicnses" which
were heard by that body, bat at that
time, no complaints were pending against
him and there was no supposition that
any indictments would be- returned
against him.
The only question with the supreme
court, therefore, assuming the articles TO
have been libelous, was whether the pub
lication OF libel on grand jury OF any
of ITS members, because of an act already
done, might be punished as a contempt.
The court held that it did not under
stand the articles written by Mr.. Storey
10 have had tendency 10 interfere with
the grand jury ia the discharge of any OF
its duties; no allusion had been made TO
any Of the matters upon which IL was to
act, and there could, therefore. have been
no attempt 10 bias their Judgment
Neither was there any effort to induce
disobedience in officers or witnesses; all
that could be claimed, therefore, was thai
the articles in question would cause dis
respect in the public mind Tor the grant
jury, and tor its action in the particular
cases mentioned, and thus bring odiun
upon the administration OF the law. Thi,
was grave offense, deserving OF promp
and severe punishment. but it was not .
contempt OF court, and could not be pun
ished as such.
The court quoted from the record in
somewhat remote case in this state, TN
opinion OF Judge that il was no
necessary 10 concede to the courts tn
lpower TO punish for contempt in cases O

their views could be harmonized. After
long and tedious conferences this was
found an impossibility. and Hendricks
has gone back to Indiana aud Tilden re-
turned to Albany this evening. As soon
as Tilden arrived there he caused the
following dispatch to be sent ont in the
Associated press report:
Governor 1ilden has returned from
Saratoga, called back 10y the pressure OF
official business. Ii will be several weeks
before he will be- able to devote any at
tention 10 his letter OF acceptance.
This dispatch YOU will doubtless re-
ceiye through the regular channels. The
last clause fully confirms the statement
have received from saratoga. Tor IL Til
den and Hendricks could agree upon a
common ground tor the finance views
they should utter. does any man suppose
there would be any necessity tn postpone
the letter of acceptance for several weeks
to come, and on the ilimsy ground of a
pressure of official business. when such
letter could be written in five or SIX
hours time: The postponemcnt OF the
letter of acceptance Tor several weeks
fully shows the trouble between lildcn
and Hendricks. Neither would yield
their own views, and. therefore, there
are 10 be no letters Of acceptance until
some new deal can he made up.
