TRUMAN GETS A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS 1.0S ANGELES, April 25—On petition of 1. J. Truman a writ of habeas corpus was ordered to-day to issue from the Supreme Court, returnable at San Fran- cisco on May 2. The petitioner shows that he is fmprisoned by order of Judge Car- roll Cook on account of his failure as Treasurer of San Francisco to pay $117 for services alleged to have been per- formed by Joseph P. Stevens as official reporter in the Superior Court of that county. Being adjudged guilty of con- tempt of court, he was fined $5 and com- mitted to the custody of the Sheriff un- til the fine should be paid. It is alleged the order made by Judge Cook is invalid on its face, in that it does not show that Stevens was tem- porarily appointed to take and transeribe testimony in a criminal case for which service the credit was made. Tt is as- serted that the proper proceeding to bring the matter before the court is by manda- mus and not by ‘citation for contempt.
