DUBLIN, Oct. 9. The magistrate's court
at Tipperary, before which the case Of
Messrs. Dillon and 0'Brieu and n NUN.
Der OF other defendants, who are charged
with conspiracy, is being heard, recon.
vened this morning. All the accused,
with the exception OF Mr.. 0'Mahoney,
who is i'll, were present, but their coun-
sol, Mr.. Edmond and Mr.. Timothy
Healy, were absent in consequence OF an
important engagement which demanded
their attention elsewhere. On behalf of
MIR. OMahoney, Mr.. Dillon produced
certificates from two doctors stating that
he was seriously i'll, and that It was i'm.
possible for him TO attend the trial. Mr.,
Roman. prosecutor for the crown, obiec.
ted to the certificates as not being valid
excuse for O'Mahoney's absence, and ir.
sisted that tho doctors be summoned by
the court to testify Us to their patients
condition.
Mr.. Dillon said that the doctors Ger.
titicates would have to be accented ma
evidence that Mr.. O'Mahoney was in no
condition TO appear before the court ss
the doctors themselves distinctly refused
to come to court to substantiate the
statements that they already made in
their certificates.
Mr.. Roman then asked the court In
ADJOURN Tor an hour to enable the crown
70 decide whether the charge againtt
O'Mahoney would DO withdrawn, or an
application made for warrant for bis
arrest.
MIR. O'Brien was not pleased with the
prospect for adjourniDg for an hour, and
he therefore asked Mr.. Roman: "Can
you not decide this matter in half nm
hour and not keep us foolng around
The court granted the request OF Mr,
Roman and an adjournment was taken
for an hour.
Upon the reassembling OF the court
Nlr; Roman stated that the prosecution
had telegraphed to two doctors in Cler-
mont Clonmel, requesting them to e1-
anime O'Nahoney, and had sent third
from Iipperary to visit and examine the
defendant. He expected that the doc
Iors would appear in court later and
testify as to O'Mlahoney's condition, and
he therefore asked that the court take
/ further adjournment. In the couue
1t his remarks, Mr.. Roman said that
O'Mahoney, through his solicitor, had
placed the court at defiance. This re-
mark excited the indignation of Mr.
Dillon, who declared that Mr.. Romans
vas untrue, He further said that he
had done his best to procure the attend
ance OF Mr.. O'Mahoney's doctors in
court. Mr.. O'Brien said that the de.
had the right to complain
.gainst the course OF the prosecution.
Mr.. Romans remark, he declared, was
addressed to an audience in England
and was designed to injure the defend
,nts. Mr.. O'Brien's remarks were
greeted with cries Of "hcar," "hear," by
he defendants. a scene OF confusion
MIR. Roman repeated his remarks again
md again aud Mr.. Dillon, who was very
sngry, loudly denied them. The defend.
,nts, in the meantime, protested against
charges made by the prosecutor. When
rider was again partially restored, MI,
Dillon firmly protested against the court
aklng any further adjournment. He
that in justice no warrant
Gould be issned for the arrest Of Mr..
CAlahoney until the court had heard
he testimony OF bis doctors. Another
ieated wrangle then took place between
ne crown prosecutor aud Mr.. Dillon.
The court finally granted Mr.. Romans
equest, and further adjournment was
aiken. The action Of tho defendants.
Who are on bail, is likely to result in
heir commitment 10 the ClonlneI iail
or contempt OF court.
When the court adjourned DR.. Nadin,
would be unable to attend
or at least four days. Ultimately To
rial was adjourned until Friday. AL
ierman Dillon undertaking that ONE.
lony would then come to Tipperary to
'eside for the remainder OF the trial.
