THE NORWOOD ESCAPE CASE
Judge Clark Explains Why He Was
Bound Over to Court

Judge Clark yesterday in speaking OF
the case against Chief of Police Nor
wood, charging him with having allowed
George Davis to escpae, said
"Of course when the warrant directs
an officer to arrest certain person and
he finds he has inadvertently arrested
the wrong man, he ought to turn him
loose, for he has no authority to hold
him. But here the warrant was to ar
rest George Davis on a charge Of rape.
George Davis was arrested and put in
custody of the chief of police. There
was no question of his identity, but
because a telegram received made Mr..
Norwood think George Davis was not
the man who committed the offense,
he turned him loose. In other words, an
officer, who had no power except to hold
prisoner committed to his care, as
sumed to adjudge him not guilty and
discharged him. This is a serious mat
ter, and if permitted would be sub
versive OF the administration of justice.
Only the officer issuing the warrant
could pass upon the. sufficiency OF the
evidence to hold the prisoner with right
of application to some judge by habeas
corpus to review his action.
'The action of Mr.. Norwood is not
affected by the pending of the habeas
corpus proceedings. If with knowledge
of the order to produce the body he
had discharged the prisoner it would
also have been contempt of court, but
he did not know of the habeas corpus
proceedings He doubtless intended no
wrong, but the laws can not be admin
istered on good Intentions In assum-
ing to exercise an authority not con-
fded TO him, ne violated the law and
there was nothing to be done except to
bind him over to court, where he can
set up his defense or excuse"
