A Witness in the Compton Mudd Case

ed for perjury in testifying falsely a
the hearing in Brooklyn, Anne Arundel
County, on January 80, in the Mudd
COMPTON contested election case, and
committed to the Annapolis Jail in de.
fault of $500 bail to await the action oi
the grand jury of Anne Arundel county
was on Friday discharged by Judge
Phelps, of the Criminal Court, under a
writ of habeas corpus. John c. Rose ap.
peared for Cant aed Michael Bannon for
the Anne Arundel authorities. Mr.. Rose
contended that the commitment was de-
fective, and tha: the S ate had no iuris-
diction over the Offer s.. as it came with
in the the laws of the United States. He
said that Mr.. James E. Carr Jr. special
examiner, before whom the testimony was
taken, had no authority to take the t, sti-
mony except under the laws of the United
States, and Maryland had no law to pun
ish this ofensc, even If Cant was held
Mr., Bannon contended tha, Mr.. Carr's
power to administer an oath Was derived
not from the United States but from a
state court, and that il was a case in
which the State and United States had
concurrent jurisdiction. But for the
agreement of Mr.. Rose and Mr.. S.anley,
the opposing counsel, Mr.. Carr, could not
have taken the testimony, and the crime
should be punished according to the State
law. Judge Phelps, in deciding the case
said the commitment was clearly defec-
tive, but if that were the only ground. he
would postpone the case until the defect
had been repaired. As it was, however.
he consi dered that the UDitrd States
courts on ly have a jurisdiction, as the Of
Tense was committed against the United
States.
