Of Ian Chun. 1t Is added that the whole
province is in a state of CONSERVATION, but
measures for it's defense are being adopt

meet the expenses of the War. The Han

TILT WITH JUDGE TAYLOR.
Lawyer Hamill Insults the Court and
Is Fined for Contempt.

Special TO the Indianapolis Journal.
r HAUTE, Ind. Oct. 3--Once more
there was excitement in Judge Taylor's
court to-day. Lawyer Sam Hamill. whose
motion for a rehearing in a suit was over
ruled. deliberately and without temper told
the Judge that he was influenced in MAX
ing his ruling by a desire to cater to a GER
tain clique of lawyers, some of whom ap-
peared on the other side of the case. The
Judge fined Hamill SIS for contempt of
court. whereupon the accusation was re-
peated and reduced to writing.
The Judge then imposed another fine and
ordered the lawyer to the custody of the
sheriff. Later in the day Hamill appeared
in court and said that out of respect TO a
court and to his own profession he would
withdraw the remarks. The Judge asked
for no apology, but RENTED the fines and
dismissed the proceedings. Judge Taylor is
the judge who acquired a good deal of no.
toriety a few years ago by sending two
newspaper men to Jail for contempt of
court. in which act he was overrcled by
the unanimous opinion OF the Supreme
Court.
