HOXIE DISBARnENT CASE.

The disbarment proceedings against
George Hoxie of Clintonyille came up
before Judge Webb in the circuit court
Wednesday afternoon. The prosecu-
ton was represented by Dist. Atty
Cornell of Waupaca and Gerrit Thorn
of New London, and c.. w. Feiker of
Oshkosh, B. NJ. Goldberg of Milwau-
kec appeared for Mr.. Hoxie, who was
present. An affidavit of prejudice and
application for a change Of venue were
filed, but the motion for the change was
denied, Judge Webb not having been
able to get another judge to try the
case. He decided he had not the
authority to send the case into another
circuit. The defendants counsel filed
exceptions to the judges decision. The
prosecution placed Mr.. Council on the
stand to prove that HoXie gave the evil
dence upon which the order to show
cause was made. Mr.. Felker objected
on the grounds that no specific charges
had been brought against HoxIe. The
court then took a recess until morning
before the ruling was made. This
morning no progress in the case was
made, court taking Il recess until after
noon on account of the lameness Of the
court reporters arm, he being unable
to take the testimony.
