SULLIVAN
NASHVILLE, Tenn, July 12-Ths guess
ton whether John L. Sullivan and
Charley Johnson could be legally held in
custody to await requisition papers from
Mississippi was argued in the circuit
court here yesterday afternoon. The de-
fendants' petition for a writ Of habeas
corpus was read. stating that they had
been arrested on no process known to the
law and held without any charge against
them and without shadow Of legal author
ity; that they had committed no offsnse
aga ust the laws Of Tennessee and were
not subject to legal restraint. They had
committed no felony in this or any other
State.
Tho counsel discussed the matter at
length and finally Judge McAllister rem
dered his decision. He was very em-
phatic in bis opinion that to hold Sullivan
longer would be q most arbitrary act on
the part of the court; that the officers had
arrested him without warrant or authority
Of law; that misdemeanors were not ex-
traditable by the rulings Of Tennessee
courts and by ~precelents OF Governor
Taylor. He therefore ordered Sullivan re-
leased.
There was an immense crowd present
and the decision Of the judge vas greeted
with great applause. Sullivan vas mad
O hero of and the town was his until he
left it at eight O'Clock for the East. O.
