CRIMINAL CoURr = Judge Fsher. - This
court was engaged on yesterday with the

Darlington rose and said: He moved that
the official reporter Of the court (Mr. James
o. Clephane) DO required to furnish the Dis
trict Attorney. with copy Of the charge Of
he supposed that that charge would DO the
law OF this case.
Judge Fisher declined to Interrupt the
proceedings Of the court for this purpose,
and told Mr.. Darlington to go on with the
case.
Mr.. Darlington desires us to state that he
made this motion, because the official 70.
porter declines TO furnish copies Of the opln-
ions OF the court until such opinions arc Arss
submitted 10 the Judge rendering the same,
and he (Mr. CO. wished to obtain an uure.
vised copy OF the charge referred to.
II Is understood that the official reporter
pursues In this case the customary rule In
relation to the judgments Of the court.
The examination Of witnesses was then
dad k.t. ~.
same as that given In the previous trials.
During the examination Of one Of tho
witnesses Judge Fisher, 10 overriding q
point made by Mr.. Darlington, suggested
that 1t was owing to the constant pressure
upon nnimportant points that the trial OF
criminal cases were unduly Heightened out.
Mr.. Darlington said that he was there TO
see that no testimony was admitted which
was not In accordance with tho law. He
deemed that important.
Judge Fisher said II was undoubtedly i'm
portant to ascertain whether the accused
was guilty Of the crime charged, but he
could not sec what was gained by insisting
on the nineteenth part Of hair In reference
to some point connected with the method Of
conducting the case.
The case was still In progress at tho ad-
journment Of the court.
