While the rest of the sheriffs accepted

railway officials just as he received it,.

Consequently, the many friends Of
Sheriff Vowel desire II to be made
clear that in no manner has he viola ed

he brought against him on tho ground
Of having forfeited his Office for a vio-
lation of the Constitution which pre-
scribes removal from Office as the

COURTS HOLD
RICHMOND WARRANTS INVALID

Yesterday Major Werner received
another. II stated that the Detroit
courts held the Richmond warrants to
be technically void. and that Savithis
could not be brought back to this city
for trial unless new papers were for
warded for him. All OF this notwith-
standing that George Bogosian and
several other Syrians recently went
TO Michigan to give frst-hand tcsti-
mony in Detroit courts against the all
legged fugitive from justice.
Mcmahon tcleEraphed Major Werner
that tho courts had finally decided
that tho warrants sworn out in this
city were invalid. 1t was held that
one. issued by Squire j. A. Purdc,
did not indicate that the magistrate
was a Justice of the peace. Further,
the Michigan judge held. the warrant
did not specify that the accused man
was a fugitive from justice.
When Captain Mcmahon will return
is a matter OF conjecture. 1t is also a
matter OF speculation whether he will
get his man.
We will believe he is coming back
when we see him." said q hcadquar-
tcrs man. when he was asked when
