CURTIS MUST STAY IN JAIL.
Justice Barrett Refuses to Set
Free the Slayer Of Moran.
To Remain in tho Tombs Until
Grand Jury Takes Action.

Harvey Curtis. who. on June II last.
shot and killed Philip Moran while the
latter, 1t Is alleged, was trying to kill
his eldest daughter. to whom Curtis is
engaged to be married, was taken be-
fore Justice Barrett. in Supreme Court
Chambers, to-day on a writ OF habeas
corpus.
Lawyer A. II. Purdy, counsel for Cur
It's argued for his release, on the
ground that the Coroner's jury had
found that Curtis's act was justiHable.
Mr.. Purdy reviewed the whole story
OF the shooting, telling how Moran had
attacked his daughter earlier In the
evening and was only prevented from
shooting her because Curtis took the re-
volver from him. Moran returned later
and renewed his attack upon his daugh-
ter and was on the point Of shooting at
her when Curtis fired the fatal shot.
Mr.. Purdy said the Coroner could not
discharge the prisoner. but he felt sure
the Grand Jury. would do 80 and that y
be compelled to stay In Jail for doing
something that the Coroner's jury had
| already justified.
Just Ice Barrett did not wait to hear the
| representative from the District-At.
| torney's office, but at the conclusion OF
Mr.. Purdy's argument promptly dis
missed the writ and remanded Curtis tc
Jury. II am by no means SO sure al
| you are" said Justice Barrett to the
prisoners lawyer, that the Grand Jury
| will not indict this man.
