A Writ of Error Granted in the Case of
Fielden and Schwab-lmportant Ques-
ton Raised.
SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, Feb. 7.-Chief-Jus
tice Slope, of the Illinois Supreme
Court, has granted a writ of error in the
case of Fielder and Schwab, the i'm
prisoned Anarchists, in order that the
question of the right Of the condemned
men to be personally present in court
when the decision of the State Supreme
Court was rendered may be determined.
The granting of the writ is duty de-
volving upon the Chief Justice of the
Supreme Court of the State, and he
does SO not because he is convinced the
rulings of the State court are incorrect,
but because he is not prepared to say a
Federal question is not involved, and
because he desires to relieve the State
court of the odium of standing in the
way of allowing justice to be done.
This question has never before been
raised in the annals of the country, and
hence the action of the United States
Supreme Court will be eagerly awaited
Should it decide that the right exists
to prisoners to be present in the
State Supreme Court when final judg-
ment is passed, then not only Fielden,
Schwab and Neebe get new trial, but
Spies, Parsons, Fischer and Engel lille
gally suffered the death penalty, and
every inmate of the prisons of the State
whose case has received an affirmative
Judgment in the State court without the
prisoner being present in person has
been illegally imprisoned.
