HABEAS CORPUS WRIT VOID

Chicago, Nov. 20.-Counsel for the
Chicago packers indicted under the
Sherman antitrust act succeeded in
getting delay until next Wednesday
in the criminal trial, which was SEIZED
uled to begin today in the United
States district court.
The delay was granted by Judge c.
G. kohlsaat in the United States cir
cult court after the defendants had
been defeated in efforts to make eff
fective writ of habeas corpus. An
appeal to the United States Supreme
court was allowed by Judge Kohlsaat.
Will Delay Trial.
After deciding to quash the writ of
habeas corpus and ordering the de-
PENDANTS remanded to their sureties,
Judge Kohlsaat agreed to delay for
NAL entry of his decision and order
until Wednesday morning. This, 1t is
asserted, will postpone the opening
of the criminal trial of the packers
long enough to permit the indicted
men to- get their appeal to the United
States Supreme court, before they au-
tomatiCally accept jurisdiction in the
district court by appearing at the trial
there
James Sheean Of special counsel for
the government, made sharp objection
to this delay.
Ruling on Corpus Writ.
The courts decision on the habeas
corpus writ follows:
From reading of cases in which
the federal habeas corpus act has been
before the Supreme court. it becomes
apparent that as rule the granting
of writ in cases in which the qucs-
tons herein involved have been pre-
scented, has not been favored by that
court. The rule seems to be clear that
only in certain cases, where eXcep-
tional circumstances arise, will the
court separate the question involved
in the habeas corpus proceeding from
the trial of the case.
ut appears the petitioners rely up
on the allegations as to the magnitude
and volume of the business, which
would entail great loss should the Su-
preme court hold the proceedings UNI
constitutional after the trial Is had.
Cannot Take Jurisdiction.
1T can hardly be claimed that the
possibility of loss growing out of the
trial would constitute special circum-
stances as contemplated in the de
cision of the court.
ut therefore follows that this court
cannot take jurisdiction of the habeas
corpus proceedings here under the cir.
cumstances now presented. Moreover.
it appears that the district court has
full jurisdiction of that matter and
has passed upon that question, and to
take the case at this time would prac-
tically amount to an attempt to review
the decision of that court.
For these reasons the motion to
quash and vacate the order granting
the writ and dismiss the petition must
be granted"
The formal entering of the order dis
missing the writ and remanding the
defendant packers, together with the
entering of the appeal, is all that re-
mains for the circuit court.
