Tho complainant, Shapowitch, whowas doing businefs at that time, chargesthat on tho l'Jth of April, 1887, theprisoner made some small purchasesfrom him and paid for the goods with a

$20 note, which proved to bo coonter-fcit; and on Monday, December 90th,he met Bosdettchi r on the street, wt ntbefore Commissioner Pleasant* and madehis complaiut, a warrant was issued, andthe accused taken before Mr. Pleasant*,who, after hearing the evidence, senthim on to the grand jury to be tried inthe Shite ia which the offence is allegedtc have been committed. Rocdeitcnerclaims that the only transaction he eveihad with Shapowitch took place on Sun¬day the 29th of March, 1887; that thetwo made the trade of some wearing ap¬pen 1 and that he had no $-20 note, butpail' the 63 difference iu the value of thegoods.

TUP PETITION.

The petition for the writ alleged thatthe accused was illegally in custody andthat he could not lie imprisoned andbeldon them/AmtfJ Of CommissionerPloMsnts t<> await trial for an offencealleged to have boen committed in theState of Pennsylvania, anti fer which ot¬

ho had been regularly examinedby said Commissioner Pleasants some

davseiaos and by him sent onto thegrand jury and held to await removal tothe State of Pennsylvania.

I thc application, the DistrictAttorney (Colonel Gibson) appearing for

particularly upon the question of themoiie of procedure ta thc Pt deni courts

tiing parties accused of crime ta(tate and arrested ta another, from

the pince of arrest to the State in winchtin y are to bo trad.

BBB DBOmOB,Tho Judge in effect holds that pro-

eec.bogs for the arrest of an sefound m Virginia foran offence com¬mitted rn another State should originatein the State where tue crime is all

nitted ; that upon suchpro. chare the necessary steps should beaiken to cause thc arrest and detentionnf thc party for triai ; that the mere fact

me person here alleged the oom-mission of a crime ia another State was

not of itself sufficient to justify the ar¬rest and imprisonment of a citizen inVirginia to await the action ot the courtsin another State that might or might nothe taken. Tin Jodge wm satisfied thatIbis proceeding was the result of badfeeling and amounted to malicious prose-,-utiou.

HECENT ESCAPE OF PRISOHERI. JrTheir Obisrvationi oa th* Priion BJ' -*t-

mtat-A Bnmbsr of Indiot-maets Pound, Ac.

Yesterday the Hastings-Con rt grandjury looked into the matter of the escapeof certain prisoners from tho city jail onDecember 16th. A number of witnesseswero examined and the jury formulateda report, which was presented to tlieCourt.

jrRORS' OBSERVATIONS.In tho repost thaw say that "tho es¬

cape was duo to the employment ofprisoners to perform duties outside thoprison proper (but inside the entrance-yardi and carelessness on the part of theofficers of the jail in the manner of se-

curing tho prisoners confined in thedungeon unsecured by a lock. Theythink that tho presence of a single watch-man ou duty for a portion of time. from7 to B P. M..was wrong ; and the grandjun- further find that there is evidenceliefore them to show great remissness on

the part of the jailor and every officer inthe general security of the jail."
