AN IMPORTANT DECISION.
The Missouri Supreme Court Orders the
Release Of i. L. Page and

Jefferson City, No., April 3d.
Chief Justice Robinsons Of the Mis-.
souri, supreme court, and Associate
Justices Burgess and Fox, in unani-
nous decision yesterday, ordered the
release Of l. L. Page and Cole Hickox
from the custody Of Sheriff Smith,
where they had been remanded by
Circuit Judge HAZEL. The supreme
court Judges held, after hearing the
contentious Of the attorneys for the
defendants and for the state, that
the defendants were entitled to the
protection afforded by the constitu-
ton, and that they themselves were
the sole judges of whether or not
their testimony would tend to In
criminate them and subject them to
a criminal prosecution.
The effect of the decision is inn
portant, as it means that every wit
ness placed on the stand in the
Doodle investigation in the future
can. If necessary, plead that his testi- |
mony wonld tend to incriminate him,
and, by taking advantage Of the
rights afforded by the constitution,
refuse TO answer pertinent questions.
The evidence obtained in the future
must be secured from witnesses who
are free to give It.
