cided the habeas corpus case Of Meyer,

was not charged that they were pres
Cnt when the crime was committed.
The case came to this court on an ap-
peal from a decision OF the Idaho fed

residents of Colorado and II was al
legged Oh behalf of Meyer and his as
sociates that they were kidnapped in
pursuance of conspiracy TO which the
governor of Colorado and the Idaho au-
thorites were parties, and hence that
jurisdiction was acquired by fraud.
Justice Harlan said that IN the ha-
beas corpus In the United States courts
the method of extradition Of the de-
PENDANTS was not material. The merits
OF the cases were not involved, as that
phase was not presented The only
question there involved was the right
OF the state courts to proceed with the
