Habeas CoRPi'B. C. H. Howard, the
man now In jail awaillng his trial for alee'
ing a package ot money from tbd counter of
the International Bank, was brought be
fore Judge Trunkev, on Tuesday afternoon,
on a writ of habeas corpus, and bit kail
fixed at four thousand dollar, Howard
was committed by Aldennao Ellis in de
fault of $1,000 ball. Alter tbe commitment
effort were made to get tbe pthooer out,
through tbe coamlttiag aiagtsttate, by .ten
dering tbe amount of ball Ural fixvd, knit
Alderman Ellis declined to go behind his
commitment trad left the deeleloa to toe
Court which acted at bovo stated. It i
said that Howard's friends will raise tbe
amount necessary to set him at liberty, and
then we shall tee bis laoe no more. Hit it
a bailable offence, and on general princi
pals the law Is just. But here It a man
caught in the aot, and ol whose guilt there
oao be no question. His liberation on ball
and escape from all punishment will be due
to the faot that somebody in hit behalf will
raisj four tboosand dollars. Tbat sum sets
him free to try bis luck again In the tame
way. But a poor devil, who bad no wealthy
hlenda or confederates to put up money (or
bit release, would have to stand hit trial
and suffer tbe consequences of bis crime.
Yet tbe bail in Howard'! case it latge
enougb; and it it were forty thousand dol-
Ura 'instead of four thousand, and tbe
amount could be raised for bim, tbe princi
pal of bis case would be tbe same- Yet It
is the duty of tbe Court to act npon tbe
writ and fix tbe bail. Upon general priori.
pals of rigbtand justice the law is faultless
yet lotihis particular instance four tbous
and dollars may see one man free where ao.
other man without tbat turn would go to
tbe penitentiary
