 De.ails of the conflict between the ex- ecutlve and the judiciary of the State of TexLs, which arose over the efforts to extradite. are contained in the follow ing rom The Dallas Morning News of Saturday.

 "Information was received from Aus tin yesterday to the effect that Cfov- ernor Campbell had honored the reauts- tt.on of the Governor of Alabama for the two women, and that Deputy Sher- lR c. s. Wilson. of Montgomery. was en route to Dallas from Austin armed with the proper credentials. to take the parties into custody and return with them to Alabama.
 "ImmediateIy upon receipt of such iD = formation, w. l. Ford, of the firm or Crawford and Crawford, representing the women. presented an application for a writ of habeas corpus to Judge John N Henderson, of the Court of Crimlna' Appeals. who, in vacation, directed that the rit issue and that the, women be admitted to bail in the sum of $1,OO0 pending the hearing of the application wh oh Is set for 10 o'clock Monday morning.

 John M. Epellman. of this city, re- eeived a teleR casss yesterday from Gov ernor Campbetrs private secretary, re- auesting him to represent the State Of Alabama in the matter of the extra dition. MT. SDellman at once called Governor Campbell by telephone. ad. vised him of the status of matters al this end. and advised him that he would attend the hearing of the application fo. the writ of habeas corpus.
 "A resume of the proceedings in the case Is that following the arrest or the women last Sunday. an application fo" writ of habeas corpus was present. ed to Judge W. w. Nelms. Of the Criminal District Court of Dallas Coun- ty. who, upon ascertaining that there was no charge against the relators of having violated any of the laws of the State of Texas, directed that they be discharged.
 Tn the meanwhile. however. an aff1- davit charging the women with being flu Titives from justice was filed by County Attorney Lewelling and war rant for their arrest issued thereon by Irstice John F Williams. In discharR- ing the relators uron their application fo the writ of haheas corpus, Judge NeI-or directed Constable Reynolds. v ho was present with the warrant from tho Justica Court to serve the war r rt charg ng the relators with being fugitIves from justice. The warrant was served, and the women have since been in the custody of Constable Rey- holds under guard at the place where thev are boarding.
 when the news of the Governors action in honoring the requisition reached the attorneys for the women vesterdav they at once prepared the application for a writ of habeas cornus and instituted a search for Clerk j. B. Cave. of the Criminal Court of Ap- peals Mir Cave was located at the baseball game. but repaired at once to his office to file marks on the applira- tion.
