Woolridge submitted his rcpor, nearly five, years ago?. The District At torney? only comment on the talk h ? had with Woolridge was that his testi? mony bef?,re the grand Jury would be tnt more important than any charg that miKbt be brought against him.

The motion of his counsel for opening Itiilgnient in his case before Judge Rn Balsk* i General Sessions ?alls for his presence there, while District Attorney Whitman's "John Doe" proceedings be fore ill-, ?-rand Jury seem to necessitate his appearance as a wltneaa before that body. Towns to Cite Similar Cases. The writ ami the motion to open Judg? ment are not related. If Judge Rosalsky denies the motion to open Judgment and Justice Gerard sustains the writ, Brandt ??ill b?? In th?- position of any prisoner In the Tombs awaiting trial. Mr. Towns I ?ilt.tn out that the writ b??ing sustained. Brandt .?ill be in the position of a man ur,?Jer inthctment who hasn't been tried and who has not been confronted by the witnesses against him in court. Mr. Towns's argument will set forth similar ? uses throughout the country, in which the denial of a writ of habeas corpus violates three provisions of the Constitu? tion of the I'nited States and one pro? vision of the constitution of New York State. A similar ?ase that will be cite?! Is that of the People vs. Fletcher. 3D Misc., 770. The defendant ?vas convicted of re?*elving a Stradivarius violin said to have been stolen from Professor Jean Roti. on its being discovered three years later that the violin had been found under circumstances which shut out th.* possibility of Fletcher having It in his possession at the time of his arrest, a motion for a new trial was tnade Ivefor?

The defendants maintain that prior to the meeting of May <S none of the ao-called agreement? wa* agreed upon by all the manufacturera, and wa* never effective, hence no alleged conspiracy had taken place unless it did occur, aa charge-d by the prosecution, at the meeting of May 4 In New York.
