Respite

The status of the case In which Judge
Bundy OF the Police Court. DR.. James Nor
gan Barber and the latters fox terrier
Yankee have figured so prominently since
last Saturday remained unchanged this
afternoon Yankee is yet In the land of
the living, through the courtesy OF Health
Officer Woodward, who has notified the
poundmaster not to kill the dog, as direct
ed by Judge Bundy, until the habeas corpus
case is settled.
Judge Bundy has filed a return to the
petition for writ of habeas corpus, in which
he asserts that DR.. Barber is not In his
custody and never has been so detained.
1t is understood that Attorney Sillers
means 10 file a ''trayers," or answer, to

petition for writ of habeas corpus could not
save the life of the dog. so 1t is said, but
would merely determine whether Dr. Bar
Der or Judge Bundy should pay the court
costs OF the habeas corpus proceeding

COLE SEEKS RELEASE
ASKS COURT TO ISSUE WRIT OF
HABEAs CORPUS.
Is in Jail Charged With the Murder
Of Mrs. Ada Gilbert Dem

Richard Cole. the colored porter who was
formerly in the employ of Mrs. Ada Gilbert
Dennis, and who was recently held by a
coroner's jury to await the action of the
grand jury in connection with the death
OF Mrs. Dennis. this afternoon, through At
torney John w. Patterson, filed a petition
for writ Of habeas corpus in the hope OF Sc
curing his release from the District jail.
He asserts that his imprisonment is with
out any warrant, writ or process Of lawful
authority and that his detention is Illegal.
Cole informs the Supreme Court of the
District of Columbia that the charge
against him Is that Of the murder OF Mrs
Dennis, and that he is not detained by vlr-
tue OF any process served upon him. al
though he claims to be entitled by law to
the service of such process. Continuing
the prisoner said he was willing to testify
before the coroner's jury to such facts and
circumstances as came within his knowl-
edge, but instead of being allowed to so
testify he was compelled to answer such
questions as were asked him by the assist
ant United States attorney, the coroner
and the members Of the jury.
He was not allowed, he says, to explain
his answers, nor to say anything except in
direct reply to what he was asked; that his
lips were sealed, by compulsion, on every
fact and detail except what the officials
mentioned wanted to hear and that he was
only asked such questions as had for their
object the determination of himself. In no
sense, he declares, was he allowed to testify
in his own defense.
Cole goes on to say that he was excluded
from the room in which the inquest was
held, and was not allowed to hear other
witnesses testify.
Alleges Conspiracy.
1t Is charged by Cole that conspiracy
was conceived. planned and operated by
certain detective sergeant and certain
police officials and officers to fasten the
murder Of Mrs. Dennis upon him, and. he
adds. asa result of such conspiracy he was
not allowed to have counsel at the inquest,
nor was he warned Of his peril.
Further. Cole informs the court that the
witness julius Van Brake did not testify
before the coroner's jury according to law,
that he did nothing more than answer ques-
lions which were read to him from a stu
diously prepared document, his answers be-
ing yes or mo-
Van Brake attempted to explain his tes-
timony in favor of Cole, so the latter as
serts, but was promptly suppressed.
The court is asked to grant a hearing
and then direct Warden Harris of the Dis
trict jail to restore Cole to liberty.
