It is not clear whether Reza fostered the re- ports, but certainly he again raised the question of the constitution. Fate of the Strong Man. Reza Khan is undoubtedly in a di- lemma, since, if he insists on a con- tinuance of the shahdom, he will be asked to produce the real Shah, whereas if he stands for a republic he will arouse the aniagonism of all the shahist factions. If he stands for the Shah’s job himself, he will unite all the highbrows, of which all Per- slans, even owners of a goat and a horse, consider themselves members. It is the impression in influential sireles that the best thing for Persia is to let Reza be the boss, either as president or shah or dictator, until he Is poisoned, stabbed or shot, which is the normal fate of the strong man in Persia-—whereupon more chaos will ensue until another strong man arises. k *‘ 16 Jackson | w | I sought | OF course, | martial | court-martial, !quired into in that suit | ances.

Decisions and acts of courts-martial | time there was : of the milita nents of the naval establish ‘nment are not ap and v { pealable to or reviewable by the civil courts of the land. This is the stand consistently followed by the United States Supreme Court in cases where those convicted by military courts the aid of the civil courts, as found in an examination of opinions vesterday by a reporter for The Sti case muy be sent Supreme Court on a habeas corpus attacking the jurisdiction of the court- but in the cases to be clted, e court has always pointed out that 1ch courts-martial were not appeal- able. In the precedents as laid down in the opinions in these military cases, th two of which were originally appealed | Columbia_courts. One was the case of Medical Director Philip S.

Guitean, assassin of Proesident Garfleld, who was con- fined in the cell at the time. There would seem to be little likelihood that the Supreme Court of the United States will even take any cognizance of the case of Col.

Wales Under Arrest. that St a coincidence Gen. Wales was placed under tech. nical arrest while awaiting trial b; the then Secretary of the Navy Whit- ney, and he sought a habeas corpus to compel a release from this arrest. The court held in that instance that he was not confined, that he was sub- fect to military orders and the Secre- tary of the Navy has full authority to direct that he remain within the confines of the District of Colwmbia Col. Mitchell during his present trial is under a technical arrest The opinion in the Wale: ney cases, reported at 114 U. w delivered by Justice Su eon General W es Wa before a court-martial for certiin practices committed in connection the administration of his office To release him from the order o arrest,” said Justice Miller, handing down the opinion of the court “would release him from the power of the court. * * * But neither the Supreme Court of the District of Columbi nor this court has any ap- pellate jurisdiction over the naval nor over_ offenses which has power to try. Neither of these cour uthorized to interf with it in the performance of its duty by way of a writ of prohibition or any order of that nature. The civil courts can relieve a person from im- prisonment under order of such a court only when it is made apparent that it proceeds without jurisdiction. 1f there is no restraint, there is no right in the civil court to interfere. its power then extends no further than to release the prisoner It can- nbt remit a fine, or restore to an of- flce, or reverse nt the military court.

The case of ex parte Mason was de- cided by the Supreme Court of the United States in 1881 in an opinion handed down by Chief Justice Waite. John A. Mason was a member of Bat- tery 2d Regiment of Artlllery | which at the time was stationed at Washington Barracks. He with other members of the command were red to the District jail for guard and he was charged with ma- firing his rifle through the cell window at Guiteau. The ccurt said there was a pro- vision In the articles of war that in times of peace a soldier committing an offense involving a breach of civil peace should be turned over to the | civil authorities on request of the party injured. In this case there was no request on the part of Guiteau, the court pointing out t he was satis- fied to have the man tried by court- martial. He was sentenced to eight vears' imprisonment, discharge from the Army and loss of pay and allow- ife sought release on habeas corpus, but the court pointed out that the breach was both civil and mili- tary. Judge Waite sald the court had no power to review judgments of courts- martial, and made this further com- ment on the constitutional guaran- tee “Cases grising in the land and naval forces are expressly excepted from the operation of the fifth amendment to the Constitution, which provides that ‘no person shall be held to answer a capital or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a grand jury.'” Released a Volunteer. upreme Court, however, did release Capt. Peter C. Deming, United States Volunteers, following a trial during the Spanish-American war, holding that the court was without jurisdiction. The case is known as McClaughry vs. Deming, and was de- cided in 1902, Justice Peckham hand- ing down the opinion of the court. McClaughry was the warden of the United States prison at Fort Leaven- worth. It appears from ‘the record Capt. Deming was a volunteer was tried by a courl-martial consis satirely of regular oflowrs.

The court was without authority, and the Supreme Court said that to legally try him it must be legally created, point- ing out that Congress was the one to say what was a legal court, using the following language: “The question of who shall act on for the trial of of- belonging to the various branches of the Army of the United States is one entirely for Congress to detfrmine.” The Supreme Court even said that the fact that the officer was tried was not a waiver of his rights, for it il legally constituted it could not try him, and therefore it had no jurisdic- tion. In tes, the case of Swaim vs. United at 165 U. , the court said: Military Court Supreme. ““If the court-martial has jurisdiction over the sul t matter of the charge against t endant and of the per- son, or if the consent of the defendant ve such jurisdiction, the writ of habeas corpus will afford no relief, for generally, in such & case, an error committed by a court-martial regular- 1y organized and with full jurisdiction 18 not assailable before civil courts.” Persons familiar with both the civil and military law and procedure point ovut there is no doubt as to the juris- diction, that is, the authority of the court trying Col. Mitchell. The Su- preme Court, they point out, has said the matter is one for Congress to de-y cide, and Congress has laid down the matter of convening courts-martial. All the members of the court are of- ficers of the regular establishment, as also is Col. Mitchell, and for that rea- on there is little doubt as to the juris- tion of the court ordered by the Commander-in-chief. For these reasons, also, there is opinion that the Court of Clalms, with the rule so clearly laid down by the United States Supreme Court before it ould not review the matter should it come to it on a question of loss of pay.
