The journalistic libel case of Messrs. Lawson
and Labouchere which was adjourned from last
Friday, in the Guidhal Police Court, came up
for hearing today. AS on the previous occa-
sion the court room was densely crowded with
Hueraieurs and well known city people. The
proceedings came to an abrupt pause when Sir
Robert Garden reversed his previous decision re.
gardmg the right of Mr.. Labouchere (who is act

justifying the libel. The Attorney General
argued last week. it may be remembered that
Mr. Labouchere could not justify the libel un-
til the plea of justification had been made to
the indictment moreover. that the presiding
magistrate could not decide whether the libel
was true or not-that was u question which re-
NAMED purely and solely in the hands of jury.
