CHRISTMAS DINNER AT HOME
A.. R. U. Leaders Do Not Go to
Jail Till January 8.
Judge Woods Extends the Stay of scn-
tenee-sentcnces MadeC Cumulative
lnstcnd of Concurrent Mt Re-
quest OF Defendants.

CHICAGO, Dec. 2l.-Prcsident Debs
aud the other directors of tho A. II. U.
will have chance TO spend Christmas
with their families, Notwithstanding
the fact that today was the day set for
them to go to Jail and begin serving
their sentences for contempt OF court.
Judge Moods this morning extended
the stay of sentence to January 8.
AT the request of defendants conn
sci he also modified his original
order SO as to make the sentences
cumulative instead of concurrent, the
sentences in the govcrnmertc case to be-
gin January S and in the Santa le
when the government sentence shall
have expired. Defendants made this
request to facilitate the legal proceed
ings which will be instituted to free
the men. IT is admitted on al. sides
that no habeas corpus proceedings
would have the effect OF freeing the
men in the Santa le case as the court
uuqucstionubly had jurisdiction there,
SO the eases were separated.
Unless the attorneys for the A. II. Z.
leaders are successful in getting their
clients out of Jail in the government
case, this means that all of them will
have to serve twice as long as in the
original order of the court which made
the two sentences begin and end at the
same time.
Proceedings will at once be insti-
tuted to get the government case be-
fore the supreme court OIL the question
Of haheas corpus. In speaking Of this
change of plan Attorney barrow said:
This may have the effect of giving
our clients double time, but they are
willing to take the risk on account OF
the Importance of the case to labor in
~terests. There was no other method OF
procedure. We may Try tho circuit
court of appeals as we'll as the supreme
court. Judge Woods has advised us To
try boil, plans
In extending the time Judge Woods
said; II have no desire to see these
men spend Christmas in Jail. In fact,
l had made up my mind to extend the
stay of sentence voluntarily if counsel
had not suggested it,
Edwin Walker asked that the pris.
oners lie made to give bail, hut Judge
Woods allowed them to go on their
own recogniZance.
