THE CATHOLIC TRIBUNAL. Appointed by the Pope to Deride Cases Arising In the Cnited State.

Philadelphia. Aug. 16. Th appointment of a high ecclesiastical tn Ducal bv the pope lor he Esman Catholic church in the United States is believed to have already beensronsummated. although inquiry to-day failed to develop the existence of official notification.

The information obtained is to the effect that the tribunal of the church will have referred to it all cases in which the church in the I'nited Staies is concerned for adjudication, and that tribunal consists of Csrdiual Gibbons, of Baltimore, Archbishop Ryan, of Philadelphia, and Arehbishop Corrigan. of New Vorli. A prominent highpriest of the archdiocese, who does not desire his name usd. when questioned, said that such a court has leen constituted bv Rome. He did not think there is any doubt.

I object of the tribunal. he coo- tinuocL is to relieve Konie of the burden of hearing appeals of tnis country. Borne wants to get rid of these on account of h-r inability really to hear the multitude of cases that press from all quarters. Reasons for this are the great distance between us, the difSculty that is experienced in bringing wit-nsf ana of securing proper evidence and the delay caused in adjnsting cases. I am pretty sure of the information I received thst the members of the court have been appointed and are organizing.

It mnst Ik- nearly three months since the matter was decided npon. The court will not interfeae with the present courts established in the country for the trial of cases further than that instead of an appeal being directly made from the metropolitan to Rome it will be made from the metropolitan to the new ecclesiastical "Will the decisions of the new court be final was asked. "I am inclined to believe tbat Rome will never shut off an appeal to her.

Associate Justice Field Arrested in San Francisco, And Released Upon Bail on a Writ of Habeas Corpus Burial of the Victim of the Affray at Stockton, OaL Attorney General Miller and Other Prominent Persons Interviewed in Relation to the Case. Justice Field Arrested. Sax Franxisco, Ang. 16. Justice Fields, of the United States supreme court, was arrested here to-day on the charge of being a party to the killing of David S.

Terry at Lathrop last Wednesday morning. Application was made at once for a writ of habeas corpus and the matter was heard by Justice Sawyer, of the United States circuit court who era ted the writ and released Jus tice Fields on $5000 bail. The warrant for Jnstice Field's arrest was issued by a justice of the peace in Stockton on complaint of Mrs. barah A. Terry.

Sheriff Cunningham of Stockton arrived here with the warrant last night and he applied to Judge Rix of the police court this morning to indorse it. Judge Rix took the case under advisement and asked the advice of District Attorney Page, The latter expressed the opinion that the warrant shonld le indorsed: and it was issued in regular form and the jndge should. not consider tne inaiviauaiiry or tne nerson asrainst whom it wasoirecteo. Counsel for Justice Field urged the judge to take testimony- to ascertain if the warrant shoma nave oeen issnea. He declared that the issuance of the warrant was nothing more than an attempt to humiliate a justice of the supreme court.

Judge Rix finally indorsed the warrant and nlaced it in the hands of Sher iff Cunningham, who went at once to the United States appraiser's building. where Justice Field chambers are lo- Justice Field arrived at his chambers about noon. and. with Judge Brewer of Kansas and Judge Sawyer, awaited the arrival of the sheriff. Sheriff Cunningham went first to the marshal's otfiee, and then, accompanied by Chief of Police Crowlev, Captain Lees and United States Marshal Franks, proceeded to Justice Field's chambers.

The justice rose to meet the party and Sheriff Cunningham presented the warrant aud formally made the arrest. Application was made at once for a wnt of habeas corpus. Judge Sawyer granted the writ and the party retired to the circuit room. District Attorney Casey announced that Sheriff Cunningham obeyed the writ of habeas corpus and produced the Frisoner and that Be now awaited the urther pleasure of the court. Judge Sswver set the case for hearing for next Thufsdav morninc aud ordered Justice Field's release, tixing bail at $5000.

The petition for the writ of habeas corpus was made by Justice Field himself and is a very lengthy document. It sets forth in detail the facts of the case alreadv known and declares that at the breakfast table at Lathrop, Justice Field was mysteriously and wickedly assaulted from behind by David S. Terrv, which assault was not provoked by any act, word or deed of the petitioner. The details of the contempt proceed-ings of September last, when Mrs. Terry cansed the sensational scene in the circuit courtroom, are then set forth, and it is declared that at that time the commission of said contempt by Terry and his wife and their arrest, conviction and sentence thereof, and at various times since, the petitioner is informed and believes that said Terry and wife have respectively threatened that at the tirst opportunity they would insult, assault and kill the petitioner for and on account of acts done in the discharge of his duty, devolving upon him as associate justice of the supreme court, and said Terry repeatedly and frequentlv declared and threatened that he would "get even" with the petitioner.

The petition sets forth that at the time ot the shooting. Jnstice Field was accompanied bv David Nagle. a deputy ITni ted States sheriff, who was acting under instructions from the attorney general of the United States. The petitioner declares that he in no way or form attempted to protect himself or any way responsible for the directions given Xsgle or any person, and that he was merely present at the place of shooting while en route from Los Angeles to San Francisco in discharge of his duties. Hr further declares that be was not then, nor has he been at any time for many years, armed with any weapon whatever, nor has he used any weapon whatever.

Petitioner also states that Mrs. Terry falsely maliciously swore out the warrant of arrest. Justice Field also sets forth in his petition that he is now holding court in this citv and that his arrest and removal would seriously interfere with and interrupt his omcial dntie. such interference beingeontrary to the provisions of the constitution. i i Justice rieia says mai uunuK tue Sharon case it was proved and beldthat the eomolamant.

Attorney General Miller was seen yester-dav and asked if he had anything further to say about the shooting of Judge Terry by Deputy Nagle. He re-replied "I see from the paper that the action of the deputy is pretty generally indorsed. It appears to be considered that Naele's presence was necessary and his action justifiable. I do not care to speak of the legal aspect of the case, and do not recall that it has ever been necessary before to provide protects on for a United States jndge. lf the case comes to trial.

I suppose I will be called to testify, bnt I question whether there will ever be a triaL The grand jury may refuse to act, or the coroner's jury may find it a case of justifiable homicide. I have not examined the legal side of the question, however. I thought the protection of the officers of the law might be necessary, and I knew something about the desperate character of tne man with whom Justice Field had to deal. "I thoughrof trouble when the trial began, but, of course I did not look, for it in a way that it did. As his life was in danger, he was as much entitled to the protection of an officer in an eating-nonse as in court or upon the bench." Though the attorney general was very guarded in his utterances, his manner indicated very plainly that he believed Deputy agle waa rally justified in shooting Terry.

About that time Crockett and his associates of the conciliation party sent up their cards, but Terrv and the more violent of the governor's folio era denounced them as no better than the vigilantes, and wanted the cove.rnor to refuse even to receive them.
