A MEMPHIS JUDGE ARRESTED.
A good deal of amusement was created
il and around the Municipal Court yester
day afternoon, by rumor being current
that a writ of attachment had been ordered
to be issued by Judge Hunter, Of the Crimi-
nal Court, for the arrest of Judge George
w. WaldTan, Of the Municipal Court on
az alleged charge of contempt The matter
was openly talked about after the Municipal
Court adjourned bat every one seemed to
look upon the affair as a sell, and the
good naturcd Judge, when informed that
such was the case, treated the matter as a
good joke on the part of some Of the law
yers who were in court lie had remanded
Messrs. Galloway and Campbell back to Jail
IN the forenoon, on the ground that he had
no jurisdiction IN the contempt case, but had-I
allowed the sentence to be suspended for
ten days in order that an application in the
case might be made IN the Supreme Court.
/ He had got clear Of the case completely, as
HE imagined. but now he stands himself in
/ the position of a defendant, and viii require
to answer in person next Monday in the
Criminal Court when the very strange, i
startling and novel spectacle viii be wit |
messed Of one Judge trying another for con-
tempt of Court.
The joke, as Judge WaIdran thought it to
be, turns out to be no joke at all, as the fol-
i lowing order to Mr.. John Donovan Clerk Of |
4 the Criminal Court, win show
