FRENCH TAKEN
TO SACRAMENTO
Judge Lawlor Refuses to
Order Dismissal on Collins
Writ of Habeas Corpus
BAIL BOND is GIVEN
Prisoner Must Return to the
Court of Jurisdiction to
Have 1t Legally Accepted

George D. Collins. attorney for ex-
Senator French, failed yesterday to
persuade Judge LawIor to grant the re-
lease Of French on a bail bond procured
IN this city. Deputy Sheriff Ed Reese
was awarded the custody of the pris-
oner and he took him TO Sacramento
yesterday on the 2:30 o'clock train.
The argument over the writ of habeas
corpus and the issuance of bonds here.
involving the release of French with
out his proceeding to Sacramento, oc-
cupied but a few minutes of Judge
Lawlor's time. District Attorney Ar
thur Seymour Of Sacramento was on
hand t. urge that the prisoner be taken
TO Sacramento to be released on bail.
and won his case
Friday afternoon just as the Sheriff
was preparing to take French to the
train, Collins served him with a writ of
habeas corpus TO appear with his pris-
oner before Judge Lawlor at o'clock
the same evening. The writ ordered
him to show cause why French should
not be released on bail procured here
without proceeding TO Sacramento.
In the meanwhile District Attorney
Seymour had taken the train for Sac
ramento, arriving at the capital late at
night He was informed that the dep
uty had wired the Sheriff's Office of the
writ and that the Judge had continued
the hearing until Saturday noon to
give the District Attorney an opportu-
nifty to present his side Of the case.
Seymour boarded an early train yester-
Gay and was on hand when Judge
Lawlor called the case.
BACK TO SACRAMENTO.
Seymour presented a return Of the
writ, which held forth that the Deputy
Sheriff was not acting as a Sheriffs s
officer, but in the capacity of agent for
the Withdrawing bondsman, ]. W. Will
son of Sacramento. He then proceeded
10 show the regularity of the Sheriff. s
act in arresting French. Collins waived
argument on that question, and said
that the purpose of the writ was to
obtain a decision from the court as to
whether his client must return TO Sac
ramento TO be released on bail procured
here, or whether Judge Lawlor, as a
member Of the Superior Court, could
not order French's release.
Judge Lawlor held that the prisoner
might be released on a bond procured
here, as the jurisdiction of the Supe-
rior Court extended throughout the
State He added. however, that it
would be better for French to be re-
leased by the court having jurisdiction
where the indictment was filed, and or
oered French into the custody Of Dep
uty Sheriff Reese by dismissing the
writ.
When French left yesterday after
noon for Sacramento an authentic bail
bond for $1,000. the amount required,
accompanied him. It was given by the
Paul N. Nippert Company, agents for
the Aetna Indemnity Company of 421
California street, on s25O0 subscribed by
j. Levy Sr Of the Crossley building and
the balance by Mrs. French.

to Beat the Mail Train.
Last evening Hal Lennon, VIM.
Foegel and Harry Edwards left this
city at 5:15, the schedule time -
the mail train for the west, in his
Rambler Auto. The object Of the
trip is to make Sacramento as soon
or before the arrival of the train IN
Sacramento.
Last week an attempt was made
to do this bit of fast driving and but
for the breaking of a wheel rim the
deed would have been accomplished.
On this occasion tho machine has
been equipped with heavier tires and
it is believed that more power has
been added to the machine.
The drive will be from this city TO
the Capitol of California, via. the
FTacerville route. This takes the
party over two SUBMITS and over the
worst piece of road in the mountains
1t is severe test on the machine
and the men, as it is a night run over
heavy grades and down a canyon
that few people care to take even il
the daylight.
Without any accident the auto Wi.
defeat the mail train, as it has been
done once and only for an. acciden,
would have been landed last week.

kuTzLEBEN WANTS OUT.
Train Wresker Begins to Fight for
liberty


Marengo, April Erich Kutzleben,
under indictment for murder in the
first degree and malicious train wreck
ing as result of the ditching of the
Rock Island Rocky Mountain limited
gan his fight for liberty Thursday by
filing motion to quash the Indictment,
his chief grounds being that the grand
jury which found the indictments was
not legally drawn, that this so-called
special grand jury was not sworn and
was composed of only six members"
and that the persons returning the
indictment were not the grand jury
and were not authorized to act as
such"
The regular grand jury for the term
of court at this place was impaneled
March 10, and was discharged on
March IL, on it's statement that it had
finished all business before 1t. On
March "a, Kutzleben was arrested and
confessed the next day.
Then the whole jury panel was sum-
moned again and seven men were
drawn, two of whom had not served on
the first jury. The defendant made
objection and these two men were ex-
cused and two who had served were
substituted.
The defendant then objected to Jur-
or John Willie on the grounds that he
could not understand English. Willie
was dismissed and the six jurors re-
naming conducted the investigation
and returned the indictment.
The defendants motion that the in
dictment be quashed contains seven
grounds, in general embodying the OBJ
jections given above.
