HAYWOOD ct AL.
U. S. Supreme Courl Fl
na!!y Renders Opinion in
Steunenburg Murder
Case.

Haywood, Meyer and Pettibone
must stand trial for the murder of
Ex-Governor Steunenburg. This is
the decision of the supreme court
of the United States rendered Mon
day, affirming the decisionsof the
United States circuit court and the
supreme court of Idaho denying
the writ of habeas corpus. The
opinion, handed down by Justice
Harlan, is exhaustive, Containing
5000 words and was concurred in
by all the justices except McKenna,
who alone dissentcd. The decision
was rendered in the Pettibone case,
but applies to the other two as we'll.
The court holds that when a per-
son is brought to a state from for
cign state to answer for a crime al
legged to have been committed in the
former, they cannot raise in its
courts the question whether or MOI
he was a fugitive from justice wher
brought back. When the reques
is presented to the governor of an.
other state for the return of Grim
inal, the responsibility of determine
ing whether crime has been com
mitted rests on the governor of thu
state where the fugitive from jus
ticc is found, but he is not obliges
to demand proof of the commission
of crime outside of the requisitioi
papers themselves.
The failure of the governor O

him q convenient opportunity before
some judicial tribunal sitting in
Colorado to test the question
whether he was fugitive from
Justice and as such liable under the
act of congress, to be conveyed to
Idaho for trial there.
1T cannot be contcnded that the
circuit court sitting in Idaho could
rightfully discharge the petitioner
upon the allegation and proof simply
that he did not commit the crime
of murder charged against him.
His guilt or innocence of that charge
is within the exclusive jurisdiction
of the Idaho state court. The
question in the court below was
not whether the accused was guilty
or innocent, but whether the Idaho
court could properly be prevented
from proceeding in the trial of that
issue upon proof being made in the
hcircuit court of the United States
sitting in that state, the petitioner
, was not a fugitive from justice
| and not liable, in virtue of the
, constitution and laws of the
, United States, to arrest in Colorado
, under the warrant of its governor
and carried into Idaho.'
t After reviewing antccedent de-
I cisions he announced that the prin-
A ciples set forth in them require ar
} affirmance of the judgment of the
: circuit COURT
: He concluded: Afns 0H
( Amy investigation as to the mo-
E tives which induced action by the
v governors of Idaho and Colorado
o would be improper as well as irrel
evant to the real question to be nov

stif;ed than when performed

justified than when performed
outside the law, where every e.
fort of authority is used TO pre-
vent and punish it.
Announcing his conclusion that
the United States circuit court has
jurisdiction in the habcas corpus
proceedings, Justice Harlan said:
Looking first at what was al
legged to have occurred in Colorado
touching the arrest of the petitioner
and his deportation from that state,
we do not perceive that anything
done there, however hastily or in
considerably done, can be adjudged
to be in violation of the constitution
or laws of the United States.
He added that the governor OF
that state had not been under COM
pulsion to demand proof beyond that
contained in the extradition papers.
His failure to require independent
proof of the fact that petitioner,
was as alleged, fugitive from JUS
/ tice, cannot De regarded as an IN
fringement of any right of the petit
/ toner under the constitution OF
laws of the United States.
He also said that even If there
was fraud in the method of removal
there had been no violation OF rights
under the constitution
eff it be true" he added, "a
contended by petitioner, that If h'
was not a fugitive from justic'
within the meaning of the constitu
ton, no warrant for his arrest coul'
have been legally issued by tn
governor of Colorado. 1t is equal
true that even after the issuing O
such warrant before his depor
tation fron Colorado it was com
petent, for court, federal o
state, sitting in that state to in
