Sec. 14.
Arrest
without a warrant.
The arrest of a person may be lawfully made also by any peace officer or
a private person, without a warrant upon reasonable information that the

death or imprisonment for a term exceeding one year, but when so arrested
the accused must be taken before a judge with all practicable speed and
complaint must be made against him under oath setting forth the ground for
the arrest as in the preceding Section; and thereafter his answer shall be
