EHE AUTOMOBILE MEET AT NORRIS PARK YESTERDAY
~
The Evening statesman. [volume] (Walla Walla, Wash.) 1903-1910, 1905-08-24
JUDGE HANFoRD DECLINES TO
INTERFERE WITH CARRYING
OUT OF SENTENCE.
Has Denied Application of the Seattle
Murderer for Writ of Ha-
beas Corpus.

William Whites last hope of es-
Gaping the gallows for the murder of
Bartender Matthew Murphy, incident
to the robbery of Lou Conway's sa-
loon at Seattle in September last, was
dissipated Wednesday, when Federal
Judge Hanford handed down a de-
cision denying the writ of habeas
corpus sought by the prisoner. The
court declines to in any way interfere
and in an exhaustive opinion discusses
the four contentious of the applicant,
dismissing all and remanding the pris-
oner to the custody of the sheriff
for removal to Walla Walla, where
the death sentence will be carried out
In analysing the merits of the OBJ
jections raised by Whites attorneys
the court dismissed the first two as
unworthy of serious consideration, as
they are clearly matters without his
jurisdiction. These objections were
that the prosecution was not institut-
ed on the oath of any person, and that
no warrant for the prisoners arrest
was ever sworn out. The third and
fourth objections were that the petit
toner was never indicted by a grand
jury, and that he has been prevented
from securing a review of the proceed
ings by the superior court because of
mis- inability to pay for the tran
script of the testimony in the lower
court.
Judge Hanford finds that the SUI
preme court has passed on the mat
ter of informations lodged without a
grand jury investigation, upholding
the practice as lawful under the con-
stitution Of this state. Regarding the
plea that the petitioner is prevented
from securing a review of the pro-
ceedings by the higher court ON ac-
count of his poverty, the court points
out that there is a way open for an
appeal to a court of appellate juris-
diction, thus disposing of the last OBJ
lection.
