AN IMPORTANT DECISION.
Speer Renders a Decision of
General Interest.
Savannah, Ga.. May 3.— In the
State a ciicnit coart, argu
was hr before Judge Emory

criminal ,l.- inflation in the case
the United States vs. Otto JohaD
charged with smuggling spir
into the country and retailing it.
minimum penalty for the offense
imprisonment for two years, and
counsel raised the point that un
tlie constitution of the United
a man cannot be placed upon
trial for an infamous crime except
upon an indictment by a grand jury,
and that any crime which might sub
a man to imprisonment for over
two years is infamous within the
meaning of the law. District Attor
ney Guerry argued that it made no
difference what was the leDgth of im
prisonmeni prescribed by the statute;
that unless the statute required that
imprisonment should be nt hafbor
labor, or the crime involved moral
turpitude, or was a felony at com
mon law, that it would be a misde
meanor, and that in misdemeanor
cases the court would have uo right
to sentence a man to the penitentia
ry, and that the practice hitherto ex
isting of sending all persons to the
penitentiary convicted of a crime,
the punishment of which is imprison
ment for |a year is contrary to law
and that the court, not having the
power to punish a misdemeanor by
imprisonment in the penitentiary,
the imprisonment is not infamous.
Information will lie. Judge Speer
granted the motion under which the
ruling in all cases pending for viola
tion of the revenue laws, prosecuted
upon in’onnation cf United States
district attorneys, are stricken from
the docket, and can be prosecuted
only upon presentation of indictment
by the grand jury. Judge Speer cit
ed savera! authorities, and quoted
at length the decision of Justice
Gray in the case of Mackin and an
other vs. the United States, 117 U.
