FAVORABLE ACTION.
Court Of Appeals Releases Henry r.
Elliott on Bail.

The question of the admission to bail
pending the decision on an appeal OF Henry
r. Elliott, the witness committed by JUS"
tice Wright for refusing to divulge the
name of a client during the progress OF
the Gait will contest in the Probate Court,
was heard in the Court of Appeals today
before justices Morris and Shepard the
chief Justice being out of the city.
Attorney Clarence r. Wilson OF counSei
for the petitioner read the papers in the
case, and during his argument remarked
that the course adopted in the court below
BILE before the same justice who had COM
mitted the prisoner rendered fair hear
ing to him very doubtful"
THE object of this writ" the attorney re-
marked, lis to have determined the question
of the jurisdiction of the committing judge,
, and the decision of the question of fact on
which he had based his order of commit
ment Both of these questions the commit
ting judge has already decided when the
writ is returned before him.
Assistant United States Attorney Jesse G.
Adkins opposed the granting of the petition.
Attorney A. S. Worth.ngton, who repre-
sented the caveator, and who propounded the
question to Mr.. Elliott to which he QSlliotD
/ re fused to answer, addressed the court,
saying he had been requested by the dis
trict attorney to represent him, so that the
court might hear from counsel in the case,
and he continued:
Il see Mr.. Perry is here"
Mr.. r. Ross Perry. interrupting him,
said:
II don't understand why You say / am
here, s'-ce am here merely as member
of tl;e ~
Mr.. ). orthington responded:
Il am here member of the bar also. -
IT understood you to say that you are
here at the request of the district attor-
ney," replied Mr.. Perry.
Mr.. Worthington went on to impress upon
the court that the bail should be refused,
because the petitioner would probably de-
lay the hearing in the Court of Appeals as
Icing as possible, and thus work a hardship
uEon the litigants in the will contest, which
had been stayed until the witness shall an
syer.
Justice Morris announced that the court
would take the matter under advisement,
as the question is a serious one involving
the administration of justice on the one
hand and personal liberty on the other.
Later in the day the Court of Appeals is.
sued an order admitting Henry r. Elliott t6
bail in the sum of 81 COO, pending decision
on the appeal prayed by him, citing as
precedent the case Of John A. Moss, the col.
ored lawyer, who was also sent to Jail by
Justice Wright for contempt
Elliott was thereupoa released from Gus
tody, the Citizens Trust and Guaranty
Company of Scranton, Pa, qualifying as
surety in the sum named.
