We have heard a great deal about
newspaper contempt of court lately
in this country, particularly in Massa-
chusetts, and now the offense seems to
| be reviving in England. A case relat-
ing to certain large estates in Mexico is
pending in the chancery division of the
high court Of justice, says the New
York Sun in which a gentleman named
| Yorba is to be a witness. A few weeks
ago a London journal named the Finan-
cial Times, in commenting upon re-
port which this witness had made in
regard to the Mexican estates, sug-
gested that he was both incompetent
and dishonest An application was
thereupon made to Mr. Justice Keke-
wich on the Sd of March to punish the
editor for contempt Of court, but an
ample apology was offered and the
court was assured that the offense
would not be repeated; so the offender
was merely compelled to pay the costs
of the proceeding. There are three es-
sentials in liberty" said the judge, "a
free press, a free bar and a free parlia-
ment With the last l have nothing to
do, but with the first two l have. l
recognize, as every man interested in
honest commerce will recognize, the
Importance of papers like the Financial
Times, crticising in vigorous language
the scandals which are the disgrace of
the present century" He declared
however, that the publications which
had been brought to his attention were
calculated to interfere with the fair
trial of the action, and that editors
should realize their obligation to cease
IRON comment on a case after It was
one@ on trial before judge or jury.

suit in which she appeared as counsel.
Both the plaintiff and the defendant are
women, as well as the greater number
of the witnesses who will be called upon
to testify.
The case put on trial is that Of Mrs.
Kate Nusbausl, who sued Celia Krauss
for alternating the affections of her hus-
band, Manuel Nusbaum.
Mrs. Fraser placed on the stand Mrs.
Nusbaum, who declares that Mrs.
Krauss not only mischevously stole
the affections of her husband, but en-

$4,000 for the alleged stolen affections,
and the same sum for the loss of
her husband, which together makes
$40 900.

That street car tenders can be re-
quired to come within three inches of
the ground is denied by the appellate
division of the New York supreme
court which says it is reasonable 10
require the lines to use tenders. but
not to specify the height from the
ground, and the validity OF the ordi-
nance depends on its reasonabIeness.
On this latter point the court enlarges
as follows: IF the car never changed
It's helght from the ground or oscillated.
ana II the surface of the street were
nat without grades, curves, or OBJ
structions, the requirement would be
reasonable As it is, however. no fen
der can be devised which will always
be the same height from the ground.
In other respects the ordinance Is
valid"
Two justices dissented, and although
their reasons are not given. it was pre-
sumably on the ground that it would
not be wholly unreasonable to require
car companies to find so,r-e way of pro-
tectlng foot passengers in the streets,
even if it cost more money than they
wish TO spend. Double truck cars, for
instance, would solve the problem. and
good many of them are in use now.
