Craig holds that his court lins no jurisdiction to try casos of petit larceny, tims raising a now ques tion as to tho constitutionality of tho spooinl Act of 1887, limiting tho punish ment of potit lnrcony to a Ono of $100 or imprisonment in tho county jail for not moro than thirty days, thus bringing it within tho jurisdiction of tho trial jus tico court. Tho caso in which Justico Craig mndo this ruling wns that of Mary Muuhaphaso, colored, who was brought bofore him Inst Saturday by Shoriff Moss, on a warrant charging hor with stealing a dress, of tho valuo of ono dollar, from Miss Mary Maxwell. Tho State dovol oped a strong prima fade caso and sho was committed to jail to await trial at tho Novombor torm of Sessions Court. Justico Craig bottoms his opinion on tho alleged unconstitutionality of tho Act of 1887, which ho holds confliots with Article V of tho Amendments to tho Constitution of tho United Stntcs, which proscribes that "No person sliali bo hold to answer for a capital or other wise (tXfam?U? Cl'imo, UllleHS on a present ment or indictment, by a grand jury." Potit lnrcony is nu infamous offonso at common law, a conviction' for it dis qualifying ono as a witness, and hence oho can bo hoi? to answer for stealing a chicken or a pig only on tho formality of duo presentment by a grand Jury. ' It is tho clement pf infamy whioh attaohos to a conviction for this crime that can-loo ti?6 trial beyond tho jur/idlotion of tho inferior &>ur?. Should ?L'z be d?oidod io be the true oonstruotiou of this pro vision of tho United Stetes Constitution, (and lt does Boom to us there is some thing lu tho point) then tho Log i slat uro should at once declare that a convlotion for petit larceny would not bo followed with tho disabilities which it now works.
