SPECIAL TO THE sEsTINEL-l

WASHINGTON, Feb. IS. In the Star
dell was continued. A cutting remark by
Ingersoll to a witness caused an angry
passage between counsel, during which
Merrick spoke of Ingersoll as a puppy, and
lngersoll. his face red with anger, called
Merrick a dirty dog, and at the same time
~involuntarily picked mp a heavy inkstand.
The Court finally restored order. 1t was
greatly shocked and outraged. Merrick
began to explain that be had been pressed
beyond endurance, but the Court, inter-
rup.ing, said the language was ~inexcusable
under any provocation. Merrick expressed
his sorrow. No man lad greater respect
for the Court, and he would bow with sub
mission to it. The Judge thought it was
due the Court that the remarks be re-
tracted. Merrick said he would retract
by direction Of the Court, but hoped
Ingersoll would be asked to retract as
well. 1ngersoll said, as far as he was con-
cerned, be would willingly ignore any re-
marks, but he wanted it understood that
no man could abuse him without resist
ance OIL his part. Said he: Il would do it
at the day Of judgment, if I was assaulted.
By Godi l would defend myself with my
puny power" The Court deprecated the
bad temper displayed by counsel all along,
and after some further explanation, the
affair was anaicably settled, and the entire
passage was stricken from the record.
