SHOWS BROKEN CHINA
TO SEND WIFE TO JAIL

BALTIMORE, Nd, Feb. 1.-two
suit cases filled with smashed china
distorted silverware and shattered
glass, took up Judge Wickes' time to-
day when George x. Packham, a mem
ber of the firm of Packham & Bros,
attempted to have his wife, Mrs. Kate
Packham, arrested for contempt.
Paclham said the broken bits of 147
pieces of Havland were due to a
vicious display OF temper when, on an
order of court, he went to the home
of his wife to secure valuable lace
curtains, one set of Haviland china
ware, sundry spoons, forks and other
silVerware.
The court, he said, would find what
remains of them i'm the suit cases.
During the argument, Packham
thought he heard Lawyer Clark. at
torney for Mrs Packham, say Pack
ham had struck his wife Packham
leaned over to n stenographer and re-
marked: That fellows a liar by the
clock"
The remark was overheard by Mr.,
Clark, who called the attention of
Judge Wickes.
See here Mr.. Packham," warned the
judge, you have come into this court
I'm an effort to send your wife to jail.
II you'are not careful you'll go there
yourself"
The squabhle was brought to an end
at this point by Judge Wickes, who
ruled that he would not continue the
case until Mrs. Packham. who is out
of the city, can be brought into court
and explain why the Hayiland china
was reduced to 249S atoms, and why
the forks have taken on the appear
ance of pieces of lightning rods.
Case dismissed; call the next case,
said the court. Then Packham quick
ly bundled his goods in his case, just
like a drummer who has failed to make
a sale. and left court.
