WAShINGTON , Oct. 5.-Tha CO of , Major
Otrge A. Armes , retired , who was arrested
some days ago hy order of Lieutenant Geni-
eral Schofeld , acting secretary of war , came
UI' today before Judge Bradley of the supreme
court of the DistrIct of Columbia. Son after
his arrest the major was released on a writ
of habeas corpus made returnable today
When the ease was called today I counsel for
General Schofeh asked permission to the a
return amendatory ol the original return iii-
ready flied . This proposition was combated
by Armes' counsel but the court decJded t :
IIow ; the amended return to be flied subject
t ! whatever acton he mlgbt see fit to take
Inter In the cse.
In the course of argument I was contended
on behalf of Armes that lS a retired OffiCes '
of the army ho was not under the jurisdic-
ton of General Schofeld as acting secretary
of war. lie % vat' , however subject to certnln I
rules and articles of war , but only such as S
applied to Iris condItion as a retIred officer .
In this condition , It was contended be could 1
not bo arrested for disrespect to 11q superIor
officer , and I was a perverslol of ofclal I
duty 10 place him under arreot. The nrtcles
of war conferrIng power to arrest applier I
only to officers on the active list. Counsel I
also stated that It was his opinion that Gen
eral Schofield knew that the arrest was ir -
gular. and br his amended return made an
attempt to justify himself on the ground that
cornnritted In hIs . .
commIted presence The orIginal re.
the offense was a military one antI had been :
turn , It was said , disclosed no cause for the
arrest and an attempt had been made to
remedy this defect by offering an evasive nnd
contradictory return as an amendment. The
fact that no copy of the charges had been
furnished Captain Armes , II was asserter I .
was a fatal defect , as the regulations specI- :
fcaly state that copies of the charges Ipon
which an arrest Is made must be furnihed
within twentY-four hours after the arrest or
tire accused must he release . Tins regull
ton applied to enlisted me/ < , and when , ho 1 :
asked has the

admlnlslraton of military ju : 5-
tce been more tender to a private than to nn
officer. The wh"le proceeding 1 was con :1- :
tended was irregular and did Captain Armes

a grievous wrnnl.
Chief Cleric i orrllson of the office of the
judge advccate general of the army reple d
on behalf of General Schofield. lie maintained
thaI Captain Armes Is a member of the mu -
tary establishment of the mii-
States and that he had been proceede d
against strIcty accorrlng to the
articles of var . Retired officers of the army
were subject to the same r gulato:9 In this
regard as thuse on the actIve list. lie co 0-
tended there was no difference or distncton
In the punishment of oUenses by court ma r-
tal proceedIngs because an officer happened
to be on the active or on the retLed Ill rt.
The latter had practically tine same relatli ante
to the army as an officer on the actIve lst 1
enjoyIng a leave of ahsence. Mr. Morris on
upheld the legality of the arrest as .an Initi Ia-
tory step In military proceedings which In
practically all cases preceded the making of
formal charges. As to the gIving of infornr
ton to Armes of the charges against hIm I
was sufficient that Ira had been In contempt
within eight rlays the military law dlUerlng

been Insuhordlnate.
