PRISON DOORS OPENED
Ruling Under Which 1000 New
York JaiIbirds May Be Set
at Liberty.

New York. Sept 1s.-Should the view
of Judge Wilmot NJ. Smith be upheld.
it is estimated that 1000 persons serv-
ing sentences in the four county jails
Of Greater New York may be released.
Judge Smith. sitting in special term
OF the supreme court, in Long Island
City. has rendered this opinion in a
decision on a writ OF habeas corpus
obtained for two young men who were
arrested a month ago on the charge of
dlsorderly conduct. They were SEN
fenced 70 six months each in the King $
county jan.
Judge Smith. after listening TO the
arguments in the case. ordered the i'm
mediate release of the two men and in
ten minutes they we're free.
II was held by Judge Smith that no
magistrate in the city of New York had
the right 10 do anytime more than to
hold an alleged offender for a higher
court or for the grand jury. He said
not only that there was no such thing
as disorderly conduct. but that all a
police magistrate could do when a pris-
Oner was accused of intoxication was
10 hold him while his case was being
investigated by the commissioner of
charities. The matter probably viii

killed her. The theory is borne out
by facts now known concerning the
wOman's life. IL has developed that
this life was not a good one, fact
not denied by her husband. II Is now
reasonably certain that the murderer
