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 today i inotionjto squash 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.
