THE DAILY EVENING TELEGA JVril.rillLADELFlHA, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 18GC.
Saitijjou, Nov. 13 Jndise Bitrtora decision,
leviewe the whole case. He aya the order or
JndRe Bond, of the Criminal Court, that the par.
ties be held to ball, and in default thereof to be
committed, to keep the peace against the Police
Commissioners, and not to seek to exercise any of
the functions of the Police Commissioners nntil
their claim to snid office would be established hy
the courts, was wholly unwarranted, and that the
Judge of the Criminal Court had no authority to
pass such an order. He reviewed the code in re.
card to the Police Commissioners, and decided that
It (tave the Governor entire power In the matter.
That if, in his judgment, Messrs. Woods and
liindes had been guilty of official misconduct, the
law gave him power to remove them and appoint
. successors. That at the time Messrs. Young and
Valliant were arrested they had been truly and
lawfully appointed Police Commissioners, and
that, clothed with the commission of the Gover
nor, they were then truly in office and empowered
to rightfully exercise all functions of the same, in
the place of Messrs. Woods and Hlndes, removed,
nud who had been officially notified of their re
moval. The action of the Governor was final as much
so as It these Commissioners had been removed by
the LfgiFiature, and from his action there could be
no appeal. '.
Whilst the decision of Judge Bartol fully ens.
tains the action of the Governor and condemns that
of the Criminal Court, virtually, by the order
issued granting an injunction against Messrs.
Young and Valliant, and discharges them from the
custody in which they were held In virtue of the
commitment on such order, the Judge decided that
it was competent for the Criminal Court to enter
tain the charge alleged against Messrs. Yonug and
Valliant of conspiracy to break the peace by forci
bly taking possession of the police stations and
other property held by Messrs. Woods and Hlndes.
Such a cbarge was an indictable offence, and upon
that charge they were properly held to bail.
. Judge Bartol Bald ne would issue an order for
the immediate discharge of Sheriff Thompson, and
in the case of Messrs. Young and Valliant he dis
charged them from custody under the illegal order
of Judge Bond, restraining them from seeking to
exercise the functions of their office as Police Com
missioners, and as to the other cbarge of conspi
racy to break the peace, be would require them to
enter their own recognizances to answer the charge
before the proper court.
There was great cheering in the court-room by
the lriends of tbe Governor and the new Commis
sioners on the decision being announced.
i P. M There is quite a throng of people in
front of tbe office selected by the new Police Com
missioners, on North street. It is supposed the
new Commissioners will at once enter upon their
duties, and renew their demand upon the old
Board for the surrender of the police stations, etu.
Messrs. Young and Valliant, on entering their
office a few moments since, were loudly cheered
by the crowd.
The following is tbe opinion of Jndge Bartol in
full:
In the matter of the application of James Young,
William Thomas Valliant and Wm. Thomson for
writs of habeus corpus. Under the code of public
general laws jurisdiction and power are conferred
on me, as one of tbe Judges of the Court of Ap
peals, to grant the writ of habeas corpus. Article
43, section 1. By the 15th section ot the said article
any judge, wheiher in court or out of court, who
Khali refute tbe writ to a party entitled, is made
liable to the action of tbe party aggrieved. This
treat writ, employed for the summary vludication
of the right ol personal liberty wheu illegally re
strained, Is guaranteed to every citizen in the most
solemn form, under the constitution and laws, as
a writ of right, which no judge is at liberty to re
fuse in any case where by law the petitioner is en
titled to it.
By the act of 1S62, chapter 3fi, which repealed
the thir.4 section of article 43 of the code, It was
enacted! "If any peasou be committed or detained
for any crime, or any color or pretence whatso
ever, he, or any one in his behalf, may complain
by petition to any one of the courts or judges men
tioned in the first section of this article, and said
court or judge shall forthwith grant a writ of
habeas corpus, directed to the officer or other per
son In whose enstody the party detained shall be,
returnable immediately betore the said court or
judge granting the same; provided tbe person de
tained be not committed or detained lor treason or
felony, plainly expressed in the warrant of com
mitment, or be not convicted in execution by legal
process.
The act then goes on to provide that if a person
be detained under tbe order of a warrant of com
mitment, the petition presented by him shall be
accompanied by a copy of the warrant of commit
ment or detainer, or by an affidavit that a copy
thereof was demanded of the person having him
in custody, and tbe same was neglected or refused
to be given. In these cases tbe petitions were ac
companied with copies of the warrants of commit,
merits, certified by the clerk of the Criminal Court
of Baltimore, and the causes of the detention not
appearing to be within the exceptions of the act of
rwia, the writs were issued. They have been re
turned by tbe warden, and the petitioners brought
before me, with this certificate, setting forth the
causes of detainer and imprisonment. These it
will be my duty to examine, but before doing so
it is necessary to notice a point suggested by the
petitioners' counsel. Two of the copies of commit
ments furnished by the clerk, and Hied before me
with the petitions, were as follows:
(Commitments were then read, and a commit,
meut in the same words of William. Thomson by
.Samuel Sparklin, Coroner.)
In these commitments the offences charged,
which the parties were respectively required to
answer, are not stated. With the return of the
Warden are iiled the followiug, marked on the
margin, "Amended commitments, Nov. 5th, l-.iifi."
The commitments against Sheriff Thomson
were also read, which have been published.
This may be true, but it must be remembered we
are here dealing with tbe proceedings ot a court
of record, and to the records of the Court the
Warden refers in verification of the truth of his
return. The records have keen produced, and. con
form to the return in t,his particular. If tbe
charges upon which the parties were arrestud
were stated in the original warrants, and respect
ively appear upon tbe records of the Court, it is
not necessary they should be slated in the war
rants of commitment.
In 3 Burns Ins. 604, it is said that in a commit
ment by tbe sessions or other court of record the
record itself, or the memorial thereof which may
at any time be entered of record, Is sufficient,
without any warrant under seal. Here the first
commitment in general words In default of bail to
appear and answer muBt be Intended to refer to
the offence charged in the original warrant of ar
rest and appearing on the records of the court, and
to amend the warrant of commitment afterwards
by truly staling therein the offence charged is not
in any sense committing tbe party for a new and
different offence. This objection to the return is
not sustained, and my duty is to deal with them
on the light of the evidence addressed, and to de
termine whether for any and for what cause al
leged the petitioners are lawfully detaiued, and to
decide whether they are entitled to be discharged
with or without bail.
I proceed now to consider the legal effect of the
returns, and to decide how far they are conclusive
under the laws of Maryland regulating proceed
ings under these writs. In passing upon this
question, it seems to me altogether Immaterial to
consider what may have been tbe power of the
court acting under tbe writ at tbe common law, or
the power of the judge under tbe statute of 31st
Charles II. Our act of l-im, chap. 12o, was lulls
terms like the statute of Oharles, and it I were
now governed by the provisions of the act ot l-i'M,
many of the authorities cited in argument by the
respondents' counsel would be conclusive and
binding upon me; but tbe provisions of the act of
IH)9 were materially changed by the act of 1M3,
cuap. 173, and by tbe code which last, although
not in tbe identical words, I consider the Bume in
construction and effect as the act of 1815.
Mr. Hurd, in his work on tbe habeas corpus,
after stating the various decisions of the Ktighsh
Courts under the statute of Charles, and tliu inn.
flict of opinion among the judges as to its true
construction, concludes us the result of the whole
'that in commitments tor criminal or supposed
criminal mVters, the truth of the facts stilted in
tbe return upon which the commitment was lound-
ed, could not, either at common law or tin dor the
Habeas Corpns act, 31 Car., a, be controverted with
a view to tue aDsolute discharge of tbe prisoner.
Pd. 270.
An effort was made in 1756 to amend the law by
act of Parliament, but was not successful. The
author says, pp. v. "iue seeas, However, which
had been sown in tbe discussion upon the bill,
SDrans uo and yielded appropriate fruits in Am.
rican law long before the passage of the statute of
50 George 3." He then refers to the various state
laws on this subject, and the decision of courts
upon them. Maryland is not included in his enu.
meration, but a reference to the act of 1813, and the
code, will show that our State Is not behind auy
lu its legislation in favor of personal liberty, and
in rendering ibis writ effective for tbe accomplish
ment of its great end of 'liberating the citizen
from illegal confinement."
The twelfth section of the code is asfol.iws
'Any person at whose Instance or in whose behalf
a writ of habeas corpus has been issued, may contro
vert oy himself or bis counsel the truui of tUe return
thereto, or may plead anv tni-tar b which It mav
uppeRf Uuu tcere i not m B3SlcieAtct2.seor bJ
detention or confinement, and the Court or Judge,
at the application of the party complaining, or tne
officers or party making tbe return, shall issue
processes for witnesses or writing, returnable at
a time and place to be named in such process,
which shall be rerved and enforced in like manner
as similar process from courts of law is served
and enforced; but before issuing such process tbe
Court or Judge shall be satisfied by affidavit or
otherwise of the materiality of such testimony.
Under this law, as under the Pennsylvania
statute, which Is somewhat similar in Its provi
sions, the Judge will look beyond the commitment
in a criminal case and hear extrinsic evidence, and
go Into an examination of facts in order to ascer
tain whether there is a sufficient legal cause for the
detention or confinement. Such has been the con
struction ef the act of 1813 in Manlsby's case, 13
Md. 637. It was said, with the approbation of the
Court of Appeals, "where a party is committed
upon mesne process, or upon charge of crime, It
is competent lor the Judge, notwithstanding the
warrantor commitment . y
be in due form and by a competent officer, to ex
amine testimony and to determine, upon the proof
exhibited to him, the real ground of the accusation,
and to ball or discbarge the prisoner.
In their cases all errors In pleading have been
waived, and tbe evidence adduced must be con
sidered not for the purpose of trying tbe case and
declaring upon tbe guilt or Innocence of the par
ties accused. My office under tbe writ stops far
short of that, and casts upon me only the duty of
deciding whether, upon the return and tbe proof,
there is any probable ground for the accusation, or
whether tbe arrest and detention are without suffi
cient cause. As the charges against these peti
tioners, set forth In the returns, are different, and
rest upon different proof, I must now consider the
cases separately.
First As to the charge against conspiracy
agninst Young and Valliant.
This has been already fully net out as contained
In the warrant that was Issued, upon oath, by a
court of competent jurisdiction, and is sufficient in
form, charging an Indictable offence. There can
be no doubt that, without reference to the title of
Yonug ond Valliant to the office of Police Com
missloners, and assuming that they were de jure
entitled to the office, audJe facto in the exercise of
their duties as such, tbe conspiracy charged la this
warrant would be an Indictable offence. A forci
ble disposition of Wood and Hlndes of the build
ings and property held by them, however wrong
fully, would be an indictable offence as tending to
a brench of the peace, and it is settled In the Suite
vs. Buchanan, 5 H. and J. 317, that a conspiracy
to do any unlawful act is an indictable offence.
Tbe Court says there Is nothing in the objection
that to punlFh a conspiracy when the end is not
accomplished would not be to punish a mere uo.
expected intention. It is not the bare intention
that the law punishes, but tbe act of conspiracy,
which is made a substantial offence by tbe nature
of the object intended to be effected.
J,ookiug to the testimony of Fuller and Ball as
to the declaration of Valliant with regard to the
intentions of himself and Young, taken in connec
tion with the accompanying facts and circum
stances, 1 am of tbe opinion that there is probable
cause shown for their arrest and detention under
this charge, and that it is my duty to hold them to
bail to answer the same. The Criminal Court, also,
has full jurisdiction and authority to bold them to
bail to keep the peace in the ordinary and legal
form.
It appears, however, from the return before me,
that the Judge of the Criminal, Court passed tbe
following order (order read), and this warrant of
the commitment is set out in the return as legal
cause for the detainer of these petitioners.
It is difficult to understand by what authority
the Judge of the Criminal Court pasted this order.
None of tnejcounsel who have appeared in sup
port of the return have suggested, any sound or
even plausible reason by which the exercise of
such power and jurisdiction by that Court can be
supported. Under tbe guise of a recognizance to
keep the peace this order is, in reality, a special
injunction restraining these petitioners from exer
cising a public cilice until their title is tried aud
decided by law. Certainly it requires no argu
ment to snow that the Criminal Court had no
power to pass such an order, or to commit tbe par
ties to jail for refusing to comply with it. and that
such commitment can furnish no legal cause for
tbeir detainer.
In order fully to understand the effect of this
order, and the circumstances under which ft was
passed, it is necessary to advert to the facts dis
closed in the evidence before me.
Under the police law of the city of Baltimore the
second code, sections S06 to f?3i, aud the amend
ments there'o by the act of ch. 131, Samuel
Hindes and Nicholas L. Wood had been elected by
tbe General Assembly Police Commissioners, aud
were duly commissioned, qualified and acting as
such by the act of lt-ti'2, under which they held
tbeir oflice, it is enacted: "Fur official misconduct
any ot the said Commissioners may be removed by
a concurrent vote of two-thirds of tne two houses
of the General Assembly, or by the Governor
during the recess thereof."
uompiaints orofiicial miscouductagainst mndes
and Wood being made to the Governor, he pro
ceeded in accordance with the I Jth and llth sec
tions of Article I J of the code, and after hearing
the evidence and arguments of counsel on bom
sides, adjudged und decided that the parties com.
Plained against were guilty ot official misconduct,
as charged, and passed the judgment and order re
moving from office. A copy thereof, under the
great seal ot tbe State, was served upon them, and
the Governor thereupon, under his power to till
vacancies in the Board, appointed these petitioners,
Valliant and Young, police commissioners, the
ormer in the place of Hindes, ana tne latter in
tbe place of Wood, and commissions were deli
vered to uiem on tne second aay 01 iNovemoer. ua
the same day they were qualified by taking the
tiliclal oaths prescribed by the constitution and
laws.. Tlitytuen proceeded to tbe office occupied
by the Police Commissioners, but tailed to find
ibein or to gain admittance to tbe Mayor's office.
Tbe next morning tbe visit was repeated, with the
same result, tue place being guarded by policemen,
and a personal interview refused, whereupon they
esittDiit-uea an omce ana aaaressea to iviessrs.
Hlndes and W ood the following communication:
(1 Ins has been heretofore published, as also the
address to the police lorce, issued on the -M iust.)
They then proceeded to issue an order to the
Sheriff' under tbe eHitli section of the code, direct
ing him to summon a police force of one hundred
men for tbe preservation of tbe peace of the city,
when they were arrested under the wurrants from.
tbe Criminal Court, and then Sheriff Thomson,
one of the petitioners, was also arrested.
It thus plainly appears that at the time the
Criminal Court passed the order in question,
itinties ana wood naa been actually removed from
ine f once uommissioners oy tne act 01 tne uo.
vernor, in the exercise of their lawful authority
under the act of lsu-2, and bad been notified there,
ot in the most solemn form, aud these Commis
sioners, Young and Valliant, bad been duly ap
pointed Commissioners and qualified to fill tue
vacancies tnus created, ana entitiea to exercise tne
powers and perform tbe outies of their offices.
There cannot be any question of tbe Governor's
power under the law to remove tbe incumbents,
if, lu bis judgment, tbe complaint of ofliclul mis.
conduct has been proved. The law makes his
judgment final and conclusive, and not subject to
appeal or review, any more luuuu eiiuunr juuj.
ment passed by the General Assembly aud remo
val by the Governor during the recess. Thoir
powers under the law are Identical, und tbeir de-
cisioii alike final, conclusive ana Dinain, ana en
titled to the same obedience. For parties thus re.
moved to hold on with a strong hand and continue
to exerciee official power, is to resist tne rigntiui
authority of the Governor and put the law at dett.
ance.
It has seemed to me necettsary to declare my
opinion on this question as involved iu the consi
deration 01 tne order passed by tbe Criminal uourt,
a fuilure to comply with which is now alleged ou
the return as a ground for detaining the petitioners
in prison. Considering that the order was passed
without lawful jurisdiction or authority, I cannot
remand the parties to prison or bold them to bail
tinder it. In the case of William Thomson, the
sheriff, the Criminal Court passed the following
order (already published ), for the same reasons as
signed in considering tbe order passed.
In the case of Young and Valliant, I am of the
opiuion that this order was passed without right
ful power or consideration, aud that the commit,
ment under it id not lawful cause for detaining the
petitioners. It appears from the evidence add need
beiore tne that tbe warrant against the Sheriff' for
being engaged in an unlawful assembly, rout and
riot, &.c, upon what he was committed in default
of bail, was Issued without any oath or a (Urina
tion, contrary to the provisions of the 2(itU article
of the Declaration of Rights, and it being clear
from the evidence that the same was not issued
npon, 1 view the commitment thereuuder as not
lawful cause of defence. See Conner vs. the Com
monwealth, 3 Biiiney, 33.
It is due to the Sheriff to say that If the v arrant
bad been wsularly issued I should be compelled
to say from the evidence beiore me that the charge
1 wholly unsupported, and without probable
cause. By the ilfit.lt section of the police law It is
made the duty of the Sheriff, whenever called for
that purpose by tbe Board, to act under their con.
trol for the preservation of the public peace and
Qmet. and if ordered bv them to do so, he shall
summon the j,oi comitatut for the purpose, aod
hold and employ snchposn subject to tbeir dlrec
tian, and for disobedience he Is subject to a penalty
of5KR The Sheriff was bound to deoide at his
peril o rightful power and authority of Young
and Vtll.ant ;o :ax :h order to him, and In ray
jTdgjr'-! te r je- in the tiivchejge of tfc. duty Jn
obeying it, and there being no evidence that In
executing the order he -was engiged in any riot or
unlawful assembly, he cannot be beid to unewer.
There being no lawful cao-. shown for tbe de.
tamer of tbe petitioner, Thomson, I will sign an
order for the. discharge, and 1 will also, unotr the
llth section of the AJii article of the code, sign an
order lor lb discharge of Young and Valliant,
uj on their entering into the recognizance to appear
and answer in the proper court.
Afier the Jndge hud concluded, Mr. Latrobe rose
and said: 1
May It please your Honor, it is proper I should
say that tbe proceeding by mandamus on -he part
of the Police Commissioners, Young and Valluut,
whom you have adjudged to be entitle 1 to the
franchise ot their office, in order to obtain poshes
slon ot tbe property and effects thereto belonging,
was that wbich their counsel had advised them to
pursue from the beginning, and tbe Com missloners
and tbeir counsel alike regret that Valliant, as
proved by Messrs. Fuller and Ball, and referred
to by your Honor, and which I am authorized by
Mr. Valliant to say were bis own exclusively, and
made without the knowledge of Mr. Young, should
have rendered it necessary, In your Honor's judg
ment, to hold the Commissioners to bail on the
charge of conspiracy to do that by the strong arm
which a more peaceful remedy would have law
fnlly ffected. Even had your Honor's opinion in
this connection not been expressed, a mandamus
would have been resorted to, if necessary, to obtain
the property and ell'eota belonging to the Board of
Police.
1 he Commissioners will at once give their re
cognisances In the sum prescribed. While the
counsel lor the petitioners were preparing the ne
cessary papers, Mr. Alexander, tbe counsel for
tbe Commissioners, arose and said that the Gover
nor had not rightfully removed them from their
offices as Commissioners, and it was in conse
quence of this advice that the Commissioners re
solved to retain office until the question ot title
was properly determined on mandamus. They
elate, further, that on being Informed of tbe derla-
rations maoe oy air. vniuant, which were proven
by Messrs. Fuller and Ball, they advised the Com
missioners that such declarations were evidence
of conspiracy, for which Messrs. Valliant and
Young be held to answer before the Criminal
Court of Baltimore city, and that it was the dutv
ol the said Commissioners to lay the evidence of
such declarations before tne Mate's attorney for
the city, In order that be should take such action
thereon ns be might think necessary for maintain
ing the pence of the city.
In making tbe statement The counsel ask leave to
disclaim any purpose of joining issue with your
jiouor upon any one 01 me positions assumed in
tbe opinion your Honor nas just delivered. They
desire simply to place themselves rightly before
your Honor and the public.
Sir. Horwltz then drew the form for the release
of Sheriff Thomson, which was signed by the
Judge, and is as follows:
lu tbe matter of the return of Mr. Thomson,
Sheriff', for habeas corpus, ordered for the 3tith day

Action ol' Swan 11 ' Commissioners.
Baltimobb, Nov. 13 Evening The old Police
Commitsloners this afternoon received another
legal notice from the new Board of Police Com
missioners, to surrender all property In their
charge, who also notified Mayor chapman to at
tend a meeting ot the Board at 5 P.M. Subse
quently they issued the following:

Tbe undersigned have now entered on the per

Mayor Chapman did not accept the invitation of
the new Commissioners to attend tbeir meeting this

Marshal Caimicbel and his deputy, together with
tbe detectives belonging to the force, have re

and will report to the new Board lor orders to

nounced that it is not their purpose to make auy
changes in the present force, except in cases of
misconduct and unfitness, and propose to accept
the services of all the members of the old force wuo
are willing to do duty under them.
It Is not known what course the old Board will

not known. Should they refuse to surrender the
