EDWIN s. HOLMES
MAY GO SCOT FREE
Believed Here Decision for
Haas Destroys Case.
EVIDENCE IS OUT OF REACH
Courts Cannot Compel Peckham and
Partner to Come to
Washington.

The decision Of United States Com
missioner Ridgeway. of New York. in
discharging Moses Haas and Frederick
A. Peckham. the New York cotton
brokers. on the ground that the indict-
ment returned against these, men by the
local grand jury in connection with the
cotton leak scandal. was faulty, may
mean that the case against Edwin S.
Holmes. jr.. who was jointly indicted
with them. may never come to trial.
Commissioner Ri6geway held that
while the indictment of misconduct, .
which was returned against Holmes and
the two New York brokers, was an Of
Tense under the common law in the
District of Columbia, it was not an ex>
tradtable offense under any United
States statute. Haas and Peckham
were ordered discharged from custody
and will, therefore, not be compelled to
come TO Washington to stand trial.
Case May Be Dropped.
In view of this development. 1t is the
contention of lega, authorities here that
Holmes case will also be dropped He
will never be brought to trial in the
District courts at any rate, it is said
The only way that action can be taken
IS by appeal to the United States Su-
preme Court for a decision as to wheth-
er the offense charged in the indict-
ments will hold outside of the jurisdic-
ton of the District. A decision fTsa~=or-
able to the District would result in put
ting Holmes on trial
Evidence Slips Away.
IL Holmes was brought to trial, both
Haas and Peckham would be required
as witnesses against him. Under Ridge
ways ruling, these two men will not
be compelled to come here even for that
purpose. For this reason. it was freely

his career in the army that goes to show
how In the circumstances of war brothers

The gentleman referred to is a man who

he was a hero in many of the most severe
conflicts of the war and there are official
documents extant attesting his merits as a
first-caSs soldier.
The episode referred to happened in camp,
where q number of confederate soldiers
