SWORE HE WOULD NOT BE TAKEN And Was Shot While Escaping with ristol in Hand U. 31. W, Takes an Appeal. Charleston. W. Va., Dec. 32. United States Judge John Jay Jackson has decided the habeas orpus ease of John Laing and Stewart Hurt, holding that they were federal officers, acting under process of the United States court, when they killed John Harless, and therefore justified and not amenable to state courts. Laing is an operator and Hurt in his employ. They accompanied Deputy Marshal Cunning ham last winter to arrest John Harless, a leader among the striking miners for whom Cunningham had a rule in contempt for violating United States Judge Keller's "blanket injunction." Harles fled, when Cunningham and otters approached his house. As he went by Laing and Hurt, wfoo had been told to look out for him, fired and killed him, chiming self-defense, as Harless, with revolver in hand, was defying arrest , Clash Dctn-ecn State and Nation. Xaing and Hurt were held in Raleigh county jail and denied hail. After their indictment a writ-of -habeas corpus was sued out of the United States court. At first Judge Sanders, of the state court, refu?d to obey the writ, but afterwards allowed the marshal . to take the men from fie county jail. Judge Jackson heard the case last June, reserving his decision until now. In his opinion he recites the, facts about Harless repeatedly resisting marshals, being under several todietinents. when he was killed, disregarding injunctions, leading, large armed forces at Stanaford City, where five men were killed and thirty wounded, and at Atkinsville, where Cunningham and others narrowly escaped death, awl repeatedly saying "hewould never be taken alive." Had a Right to Kill Harless. ' After holding that Harless was a fugitive the court said: This court has jurisdiction to determine whether Latng and Hurt are entitled to discharge from further detention under the indictment in the state court. There Is not only an absence of malice upon the part of the officers, but no motive other than a desire to discharge the duty imposed upon them by the marshal in the execution- of writs! This court holds-that La rag and nurt were .summoned by Deputy Marshal Cunningham and were attempting, to arrest Harless for violating United States law, and while so acting under the authority of law were authorized tind justified in using whatever means were necessary to execute the process of the court, and that they believed that it was necessary to protect their lives to take the life of Harless. Labor Take an Appeal. "They had reasonable grounds for such belief, and the law would hold them harmless of homicide, upon which they stand Indicted in the court of Raleigh county, W. Va. This court is of the opinion that the petitioners are in custody of the state authorities in Violation of their rights as citizens under the constitution of the United States." An order was issued for their discharge. Attorneys for the state and the United Mine Workers of America, who were prosecuting Laing and Hurt,' gave notice of appeal.
