what unusual method Of arresting him
on written statement and then hur-
rying him from the city in an auto
mobile before the local courts could
issue a writ Of habeaS corpus and Sc
cure possession of the witness. The
arrest was made at the close of the
day and the officers had difficulty In
getting away with the prisoner, some
