for Alleged SvindIinu.

NEW BRUNSWICK. n. j.. July n
An application was made in the Middle
sex County Court this morning for the
removal of j. Dixon Cunningham. a
well-known criminal lawyer in New
Brunswick. to an insane asylum.
The application was made by the law
yer's father. He was backed up by DR.
+. A. Shannon and DR. J. Warren Rice
who gave opinions that Cunningham
was insane. Or. N. Williamson and DIR.
F. NJ. Donohue considered that Cunning
ham was simply suffering from nervous
trouble.
The alleged lunatic made quite SEN
SatiOn in court by vigorously defending
his own case. He questioned the verac
ity and business methods of his ia Their.
Then lie went on the stand and pleaded
hard for his liberty.
Judge Rice refused to commit him to
the insane asylum. but held him under
81 500 bail under two indictments for OBJ
tanning money under false pretenses
The complaint against Cunningham is
made by Marcus Stricken, OF Perth Am
boy. who claims that Cunningham
passed forged check on him.
Cunningham has been representing
himself as special counsel OF the Lehigh

his legal friends consider that he should
have accepted the insanity plea, and
thus avoided possible sentence to
State prison.
