WADDELL men 9 G;
ARE RELEASED
UNDER OLD ACT
Judge 0'Brien Bases Ruling on
Amendment to 1875 Law

Basing his ruling on an old Michigan
statute. passed i'm 1875 and amended
i'm 1879, Judge O'Brien this morning i'm
the circuit court. granted the motion
of Attorney Joseph Hambitzer To re-
lease James u Kelly and William
Grimes. two former Waddel guards.
who were held in the county jail AS
witnesses in the Huhta case.
This ruling brings to light the fact
that neither the circuit judge nor the
circuit court commissioner can com
nit witnesses for failure to enter into
"A recognizance To appear as witnesses
i'm the circuit court. The right to com
NIT for want Of such recogniZance was
once conferred upon the terminating
magistrate but Act III, Public Acts
of 1875, repealed the law ana provided
that witnesses could only be required
to enter into such recogniZance by
order of judge of a court of record.
Act 141, Public Acts 1879. amended
the last mentioned act by inserting al
ter the words, Judge of a court of
record" the words, "or a circuit court
commissioner" But in neither act
does the legislature confer the right
tn commit in default of entering into
such recogniZance.
In support of this. Attorney Hambit-
ger cited the case of Bates w. Ketch-
ell. 160 Michigan. The gist of this de-
cision is that while the power to fix
the bonds of witnesses has long been
conferred upon the court, it cannot be
exercised i'm this case because there is
no statute authorizing the court to
commit a witness to Jail for not having
furnished a bond.
incidentally, this is the first instance
in which the above act has been called
To the attention of the Houghton
county circuit court. Apparently. in
the amendment, the right of compel
ling a witness To furnish Il bond by the
judge of the circuit court, was omitted,
inadvertently.
The act, therefore, applies only tn
Grimes and Kelly. as Nellis. the third
Waddell guard who has been held as
witness, has furnished a bond.
Attorney HIambitZer declares that
Grimes and Kelly will leave shortly
for their homes in Chicago but will
return when they are wanted To testify
in the Huhta case.
Mr.. Hambitzer's original motion was
made yesterday morning and the court
took the request under advisement.
Subsequently, the attorney for the de-
PENDANTS resurrected the above statute
