Charles Town, w. Va, September z.
in the Supreme Court of West VIZ
ginia to-day the session was occupied
chiefly with the argument on the petit
ton and rule to award writ or prohl-
bition against Judge John H. Holt, OF
Tucker courty, to prohibit him from
proceeding with the trial OF Col. ROD
ert w. Eastman, on an indictment
charging him with the murder OF Frank
E. Thompson.
Counsel for the State and Judge Holt
filed three separate answers to the
rule to which counsel for Eastman
filed general replication. The argu-
ment was opened by Congressman A.
| G. Dayton on his motion to dismiss
the rule in prohibition as IMPROVE
IDENTIFY awarded.
After giving the history and uses or
the writ of prohibition, he argued that
| it was not the proper remedy in this
case and therefore should be dismissed.
He cited many cases to sustain his po-
sition and forcibly presented his points.
He was followed by Col. G. Wood
Daily, of Randolph county, who open
ed the argument for the petitioner,
| Col. Eastman. Mr.. Daily began by re-
citing in detail the matter which took
place before Judge Holt in tucker
county during the term of court, at
! which the indictment for murder was
found. He maintained that under the
circumstances this prohibition was the
only adequate remedy, and that it had
been used in several other cases IN the
United States similar, in fact, to this
case. He made several strong points
and cited authorities to sustain them
He was followed by Mr. F. M. Rey'
nolds, of Keyser, of counsel for East
ham. He covered the law governing
grand iuries from the old common Law
-e-.,.u. anu West Virginia. He
argued that the indictment was a null
lily because the grand jury was not

ham, praying his discharge, was heard.
