Court Adjournment
Out of
Eespect for Terrys Memory
The Action of AttorneyGeneral Miller
Indorsed by the Hon Daniel W
Yoorhee3 oFlndiana
It is Not Believed that Deputy Naglo will Ever
be Tried for His Act Justice Field
Placed Under Arrest
ATTORNEYGENERAI MIIXER SUSTAINED
Terre Haute Ind Aug 16 The
senator from Indiana Mr Voorhees
sustains AttorneyGeneral Miller in what
he did to protect Justice Field It has
been well known for some time past
said Mr Voorhees that Justice Field
would be in imminent peril whenever bis
duties called him again to California Ho
was deliberately and openly threatened
with death or extreme punishment by
one of the most desperate and dangerous
men ever known on the Pacifio coast
The committal of Judge Terry for ron
tempt of court was not only imperatively
necessary and demanded in defense of his
own court but also in defense of every
other court in the United States against
lawless outrage In my opinion it was
eminently proper that the attorneygen
eral should see that no harm should come
to him when in his judicial circuit
NAGLE WILL NEVER BE TRIED
Indianapolis Ind Aug 16 Attor
neyGeneral Miller when asked f ho
had anything further to say about the
shooting of Judge Terry by Deputy
Nagle replied 1 see from the papers
that tho action of the deputy is pretty
generally indorsed It appears to
considered that Nagles presence
be
was
Upcessaryjand his action justifiable I
dont care to speak of the legal aspects
of tho case I dont recall that it has
ever been necessary before to provide for
the protection of a United States judge
If tho case comes to trial I suppose I will
be called to testify but I question
whether there will oyer be a trial The
grand jury may find it a case of justifi-
able homicide I hare not examined the
legal side of the question however I
thought the protection of officers of the
law might be necessary itid I know
something about the desperate oharacter
of tho man with whom Justice Field
had to deal I thoucht of trouble
when tho trial began but of course I
did not look for it at a way station or
upon a train If the justices life was
in danger though he was as much
entitled to the protection of an officer at
am eatinc house as in the court room
upon the bench V
Though the attorneygeneral was very
guarded in his utteranses his manner
indicated very plainly that he believed
Deputy ISTagle was fully justifiable in
shooting Terry
A GUARDED STATEMENT
Pittsburg Pa Aug 16 Concern-
ing the tragedy of Judge Terry exSo
lioitorGeneral Jeuks who is in this city
said in reply to the question Had the
attorneygeneral a right to delegate a
nSarrshal to protect Judge Field
iJ f Well I would rather not answer
that question The attornoygeneral is
at the head of the department of justice
and all machinery of the courts is under
his control He is bound to preserve
peace and order in the courtroom It
would certainly be a most atrocious crime
if a justice should be murdered off the
bench for any official action
San Feancisco Cal Aug 16 The
Terry tragedy continues to dwarf all
other news in the popular mind in this
city and throughout California Public
interest in the affair has been increased
by the aotion of tho district attorney of
San Joaquin county in issuing a warrant
for the arrest of Justice Field on the
complaint of Mrs Sarah Althea
Terry and the legal conflict
that threatens to grow out of
the demand The warrant directs Sher-
iff Cunningham of San Joaquin county to
take Justice Field to Stockton the
former home of Judge Terry in which
city Deputy Nagle is at present under
arrest Tho sherriff arrived here last
nlig and expected to make the arrest
taTl oclock this afternoon it being nec
essary to have the writ approved by the
judge of San Francisco county The matter
was called to attention of Judge Rix this
forenoon who declined to indorse it
without first having an opportunity to
consider the facts and he said he might
take the case up this afternoon In tho
event that he approves the warrant it is
understood as soon as tho arrest has
been formally made a writ of habeas
corpus will be sued out in tho
United States circuit court This course
has been decided upon by counsel of
Justice Field and to determine at once
the authority of Federal court and its
officers It is also known that action
will be taken seeking for an order from
the United States court upon Sheriff
Cunningham to at onro deliver Deputy
Marshal jSagle into the custody of tho
United States marshal by which order if
obeyed the deputy will be brought to
this city
NO RESPECT FOR TERRY
San Francisco Cal Aug 16 The
supreme court of tne state of California
of which tho late David S Terry was
formerly justico this morning refused to
adjourn out of respect to Terrys mem
ory This was announced from the
bench and the reasons given that Terry
resigned his judicial position to fight a
duel and that he was killed while in tho
tiot of assaulting a justice of the United
States supreme court
The application for adjournment was
made by Attorney Crittenden but Chief
Justice Beatty declined to entertain the
motion After remarking that he was
sorry the motion had been urged he
added
It is a very unpleasant affair but
the court has fully considered tho samo
and deems it the wisest course to treat
the subject in silence The sudden death
of David S Terry is notorious and it is
the decision of this court that it take no
further action in the matter
JUDGE FIELD ARRESTED
San Francisco Cai Aug 16 A
warrant of arrest was served on Justice
Field at 1 oclock this afternoon at the
ftj
latters chambers in the
buildins A writ of haoeas
appraisers
corpus was
n
at once sworn out before Judge Sawyer
of the circuit court and heard by him in
the chambers
Tho judge granted the writ and re-
leased Justice Field on S5000 bail The
warrant for Justice Fields arrest was is-
sued by a justice of the peace in Stockton
on complaint of Mrs Sarah A
Terry Sheriff Cunningham of Stock-
ton arrived here with the war-
rant last night and he applied to
Judge Rix of the police court
this morning to indorse it Judge Rix
took the matter under advisem*nt and
asked the advice of District Attorney
Page The latter expressed the opinion
that the warrant should be indorsed
that it was issued in regular form and
tho judge should not consider the indi-
viduality of the person against whom it
was directed
The counsel who appeared for Justice
Field urged the judge to take testimony
to ascertain if Jhe warrant should have
been issued He declared that the issu-
ance of the warrant was nothing more
than an attempt to humiliate
a justico of the supreme court Judge
Rix finally indorsed the warrant and
placed it in the hands of Sheriff Cun-
ningham who went at once to the United
States appraisers building where
Justice Fields chambers are located
Justice Field arrived at his chambers
about noon and with J ustice Brewer
of Kansas and Judge Sawyer awaited the
arrival of the sheriff Sheriff Cunning-
ham went first to the marshals office
and then accompanied by Chief of Police
Crowley Capt Lees and United
States Marshal Franks proceeded
to Justice Fields chambers Justice
Field rose to receive the party
and Sheriff Cunningham presented the
warrant and formally made the arrest
Application was made at once for a writ
of habeas corpus Judge Sawyer granted
the writ and tho paity retired to the cir-
cuit court room

any personal differences between Secre-

one of the most lovable of men and a
man of broad views and while there
may be some official differences between
us these differences are not of a personal
character Any statemout tending to
create any other impression is untrue
