contempt of court for the violent

tackled officers of the court. The
application for writ was made on
the ground that Terry, at the time of
his offense, was not in the court room
and did not have notice of the inten-
ton to bring him to trial. Judge
Harlan, who rendered the opinion,
says the offense was committed in full
view OF the court, and that the pun
ishment followed practically without
any intermission and that the case is
not one IN which this court should
interfere. Justice Field took no part
in the case.

over and above the number of killed
and wounded, they having escaped
soon after the explosion by way OF
the air and escape shafts. Officials
OF the company are on the ground
and all is being done that can be for
the relief of the suffering and dis
tress of all wounded men and desti-
tute families.

to manage our own state affairs and |
that You will give us decent federal |
