The ques- tions certified In this case, and two other cases beard with tt, were as follows 1. On the facts stated in saia petition and ex. hibits, ought a writ of habeas corpus to be issued according to the prayer ofenid petition? *. On the facts stated in said petition and ex. hib onghbt the said Lembdin P. Milligan to be discharged from custody as in said petition prayed 3. Whether, upon the facts stated in «aid Petition sud exhibits. the military commission Mentioned therein bad jurisdiction legatly to '¥ and sentence said Milligan im manner and form as in said peution and exhibits siated. As to tha first two questions. it is answered affirmatively, and as tothe thira question it is answered in the negative Mr. Justice Davis read the opmion of the court. On the merits, it is held that Congress provided against such commissions rather ‘ban in invor of them, by the act of 1363, and that Congress Bas not the constitutional power to authorize such commissions. That the Con- sti'utlem is expressly agsinst them, and it ix the supreme law of the lund in umes of war Ss in times of pesce. Mr. Chief Justice Chase read an opinion (im which Justices Wayne, Swayne,and Miller concur) dissenting from so much of the opimion of the court as held that Congress did not have the constitutional power to sathorize military commissious, but concurring as to the answers given to the questions certified up. The dissenting opinion bolds that in time of war Congress may au- thorize military commissions to trv offences such as charged ir the eases before the court. al KEEPING OPEN ON SUNDAY —The police o'fi- ceTs are giving particular attentien to the on- forcement of the chy ordinance probibiting the cpening of places Of business on the Sabbath day.
