A SCENE IN COURT.
A Sensational Day in the Kansas City
EmbezzIement Trial.

KANSAS CRY, Dec. 9.-The trial of
William Peake, ,ex-city treasurer, charged
with the embezzlement of $25 900. was
very sensational today. Prosecuting
Attorney Brown asked that evidence
might be introduced to prove the good
character of Horace McKim. Peake's
attorney, William Wallace, objected,
and becoming excited, declared that
McKim stole all OF the money. Brown
denied this and Wallace sprung at him,
striking him twice with his hand before
the deputy marshal could separate
them. No damage was done. The
Judge informed Wallace that he would
have to answer for contempt of court.
McKim stated that he would bring a
civil suit for damages against Wallace.
