MURDERERS MAY BE PUNISHED. Supreme Court of the State, He Says, Alone Stands in the Way. MISTAKES OF EXECUTIVE OFFICIALS. Frightened by Legal Saracrows Manufactured to Protect Cr.minals. Spectal Dispatch to THE CALL. SAN DIEGO, Nov. 14.—The following question was propounded to Judge E. S, Torrance to-night: “What do you think of the decision of Judgzes Morrow and De Haveu in the Durrant case and w will be its effect? He replied as tollow “The people of thi. State scarcely realize the supreme importance of the recent decision of the United States Circuit Court at San Fran- cisco denying Durrant’s last application fora writ of babeas corpus. It means that the abuse of tue process of the Fed- eral courts in California by habeas corpus lawyers has received its final quietus. It means that convicted murderere have ceased to stay the hands of criminal jus- tice in this State by perverting the use of | the great writ of human liberty, which | was alone designed for the liberation of | persons uniawfully confined. Tue deci- | sion tears out by the very roots this vicious practice, and it came so sudden'y that audacious counsel stood dumfounded at the complete collapse of their favoriie scheme for defeating the ends of justice. “The Circuit Court holds that where no Federal question 1s involved no appeal lies trom the order refusing the writ. The conclusion necessarily foliows that in such a case there can be no stay of proceedings in the State court or under Siate author- ity. Ninety-nine per cen: of the applica- tions hitherto made for the writ where tne petitioner wus in custody under the judz- ment of a criminal court huve been wholly destitute of merit and have been uni- formly denied ty the Fedaral courts; but, unfortunately, appeals have been allowed, and it bas been unju-tly claimed that the State couris. if no Federal question was presented and no supersedeas allowed it is legally and logically absurd to say that the jurisdiction of the State courts was ousted, or for one moment was ar- rested or suspended. Congress has not so enucled, and 1f it had, its act would be same to | g | 2 Sbanks.’ at the head of the | 14% ¢an hang Durrant or Ebanks | lows the precedent established by the void for lack of constitutional power. “The defeat of justice so far has re- sulted not so much from the law’s delay as from the lack of official discernment and stamina in the exccutive officers of the State, whose duty it was to execute the mandates of the State courts. The lagal scarecrows manutactured by law: vers, oblivious of their professional obli- gations, have frightened these officials from the diccharge of their duty, while | the peoplie stood amazed—not that the | writ of habeas corpus had beea suspended | legerdemain that writ had been given the ctticacy of wholly suspending the execu- tion of the criminal laws of the State against the crime of murder. | “Maiefactors sneered and jeered atthe futile efforts of the State courts to punish capital offences.

DIXON, Nov. 14 —Almost a week has | passed since the enacting of a tragedy that stirred Dixon as it never was stirred be- fore. One week ago to-night an assassin was abroad in the town—not one whose face was hidden by a black mask, and who carried in his hand a smeking revolver or blood-stained dageer, but one wearing the smile of a friend, perhaps, or even a rola- tive. One week ago to-night Lewis Belew and his sister were happy in the thought that but a few days vould elapse ere they wouid be united in matrimony to another maid and youth. To-night their bodies, cold in the embrace of death, fill two com- | mon graves in the family piat. One week 20 to-night the fiendish assa ssin entered the little kitchen in the Belew home, heedless of the warnings of nis depraved conscience, and deposited in the most | used implement in vse in the culinary de- pariment of the little home—the teaket-| tie—the arsenic which was to deal out death.’ Chemist Wenz2ll bas founa arsenic in conclusivelv the cguse ot death, and now the one duty of the peace officers is to hunt down the instigator and vepetrator of the crime. 1wo men are suspected— Frank Belew, the brot.er of the victim-, and Harry Allen, the jilted lover of the dead girl. Itis hoped that the Coroner's inquest will throw light enough on the murder to warrant the officers 1n making | The wqaest | will probably be held next Tuesday. There | will be more than a score of witnesses, | severa! | days. Itisexpected that someconclusive | evidence wiil be produced from witnesses whom the officers are endeavoring to keep | in the background until the proper time | arrives. | CharlesfEhmann, the dead girl’s fiancee, | says tha: he was with Miss Belew at her home until about 11 o'clock last Sunday night. He went to the pump and got a drink ol waler during the evening, and noticed the tea kettle setting on the wood- burning stove in the kitchen. He locked the back door after having got the water and tcrned a button that was on the door- frame for additional sefety against in- truder. Frank Belew says he came to'town on Sunday evening from his ranch, arriving atabout 4:30 o’clock in the afternoon. Avout an hour later, in company with Susie, Lewis and Thomas Belew and Miss Lou Bremley, he ate supper in ibe home He claims that supper, and that after the other three per- sons lett the house bis sister gave him a healacie powder, given in a giass of water with which to wash the powder down. He then returned to his ranch, ar- riving there at aboat 8:30 o’clock. Night Watchman Joseph Staton con- tradicts Frank Belew with reference to the time that he leit town by stating that he saw Belew on the street and spoke to him at about 8:30. Harry Allen, whom the Belew brothers are pleased to call the jilied lover of the dead girl, denies that ne was ever jilted by Miss Belew, and says that their rela- tions were as iriendly as ever they were. He ssys that Susie had written him a note asking him to refrain from visiting her upon a certain evening, &nd, knowing of Frank Beiew’s aversion to him, he did not visit the girl atterward. Frank Belew admiis that he and his wife, who is now unot living with him, were instrumental in having bis sister, | Susie, write tue note to Alien; in fact it was mailed to Alien vy Frank Belew. The officers brought Harry Ailen and Frank Belew together in a room 1n thbe Brinckerhoff & Ebmann building to-day 1n bope thai the meeting might bring out some new evidence.

Some time was taken in making the analysis, as he first bad to reduce the ob- ject to a pulp by chemical action. The Sheriff of Soiano County arrived in this city last evening and brought along a teaketile of water which was found on the stove at the lime of the tragedy. The contents of the kettle will be anaiyzed by Professor Wenzell later. He is of the opinion that he wiil find arsenic in tne water.
