HABEAS CORPUS
WRIT DENIED
Judge Morrow Decides That
Hyde and Dimond Must
Undergo Trial in Court
SUPREME COURT APPEAL
Titles Obtained by Fraud
Are Not Titles at All
and Indictment Is Valid

United States Circuit Judge Morrow
yesterday refused to grant writ OF
habeas corpus to &. A Hyde and II.
p. Dimond, under indictment by the
Grand Jury of the District of Column
bia. Judge Morrow held that the in
dictment was valid and that 1t charged
a crime against the United States.
Bert Schlesinger, counsel for the de-
PENDANTS presented papers on appeal
TO the Supreme Court Of the United
States. and the defendants were re-
quired to give bonds Of $4,000 each,
which they did.
Francis Heney Of counsel for the
Government asked that defendants be
required to give bonds Of $4,000 each.
He said that the offense of which they
were charged was not an extraditable
one and that the defendants, If they
wished, could go to British Columbia
or Mexico. and thus escape punish
ment. Carrot McEnerney remarked
that the accused were able TO give
bonds for $4,000 each, but that such
a sum was unreasonable. He also took
exception to Heney's remark that the
accused had realized half a million
dollars out of the alleged frauds.
Judge Morrow, in the course of his
opinion, said:
I'm this case I have considered very
carefully the question whether or not
the District of Columbia has jurisdic-
ton, and 1 am satisfied that it has.
The important question is
whether or not this indictment charges
the petitioners with any crime against
the United States. The charg-
ing part of the Indictment is not very
clear in its language. The objection
is that this indictment charges the
petitioners with having obtained title
to certain lands from the States of Cali
fornia and Oregon in the names of fic-
tftious persons, and that this has been
used IN obtaining title from the United
States for lands which the United
States owns. 1t is said that this is
not an offense against the United
States; that if these petitioners have
secured title, they are entitled to
change that title for land belonging
TO the United States. An exchange
does not mean a fraud. Judge
de Haven has reached the conclusion
that while the language of the indict-
ment is open TO criticism il does allege
an offense against the laws of the
United States, and 1 also am of that
opinion"
Judge Morrow went on to say that
a title obtained by fraud is no title at
all. and that when the accused ex-
changed lands to which they did not
hold valid title, they defrauded the
United States.

TRAVELLING MAN
 UP AGAINST IT.
Sold Scales But Gambled and Beat Board Bills as a
 Side Line.

Pine Bluff, Jan. 21.-J. B.. King, who travelled for an At lanta, Ga, concern dealing in scales, is held in the custody of local officers, awaiting the arrival of Atlanta officers.
 ' The circumstances incident to Kings arrest are rather inter- esting. Some days ago, it is alleged, he gambled with young man here, and the result of the game was the arrest of the young man. It developed that the lat ter had been stealing from his former employers to secure money with which to gamble. At the time the young man was being tried for the charges against him, King was about to leave the city. At the instance of the clerk of the hotel where King had stopped, he was appre- hended and requested to report as a witness in the case. He went to the court, and there was served with warrants charging him with gaming and attempting to jump a board bill. He at tempted to escape from the officers at the time, and later made a similar attempt.
 Now comes information from his Atlanta employers charging him with embezzlement, and his troubles seem to grow with his stay in Pine Bluff. King is quite we'll known over Arkansas, where he has travelled for some time, .seNinas scales.

The story is on new and novel lines, intensely interesting from start to finish, and while thrilling enough to be melo-dramatic, it still has a double comedy vein running through it and hence it really should be called "melo- comedy-drama. l" The entire production will be offered here in most elaborate manner and is sure of success.
