Spectal Dispatch to 2he Chicazo Trivuns, INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 8,—In the Buprome Court to-day, Judge Downoy filed au opinion i tho case of McNulty ve. Connew, on an appeal from the Tippecanoo Circuit Court. This wasa pro- ceeding by Liabexa corptia ou petition of the np- pellant againat the aapellcs, who is keeper of the city prison in Lafsyelte. Tho question presentod is a8 to tho power of & City Judge to oxercise Jurindiction of action for violation of & city or- dinance. In 1874, the City Council of Fafoyetta Angustus Pago brought suit Buwith and J. D. Duncan, sdopted an ordioance creating tho offico of City Judge, in sccordance with the provieions of an act pissod Ly the Leginlature in 1867, and a Judge was elected to fllLthat oflica. Appellant was arraigrod for violation of a citv ordinsnce, aud, on (rial ho- foro the Citv Judge, wae adjudged gulty and sentenced to pay a fine, nnd, in dofauit, was imprisonod. ‘A" Liabeas corpus procending followed, and Judge Vinton remanded tho pris- ouer to tho custody of tho keeper of the city prison. Yhe Court holda that tho law under which tho offico of City Judgo was sought (o bo created nas inoperative. Thera {8 no provielon in the act declaring that when n City Judgo Lae been provided for aud elected bo shall have and exercize_the same jurisdiction confer- red upon tne Mayor by the act of March 14, 1567, or tbat ho shall have any Jue riedlction whatever. The Court fails to find. from anything contained in the act now in force, that the City Judge, when elocted, in to suver- seds the Mayor in bis oflicial duties, for the plain reason that ihero Is uo langunge of the act which attempta to express such an intoution, as the City Judge does not superseds she davor, and the Mavor is requrod to hold court datly aud 18 given exclusivo jurisdiction. In cnsos in. volving infractions of ‘city ordinances, it Is veld that the City Judge basno junsdiction. An this implics tho creation of & Judicial oflicor without suy cases to try, it nust bo sttributed to over- #lght on tho part of the Legisiature in failiug to deflue bis jurisdiction.
