MANY LITIGANTS ABROAD
Judge Bonniwell Comments front
cally on Pleas for Continuance.

The number Of applications for tho con-
tinuance of trials in the criminal branch
or the Municipal Court, with the war as
the basis of the motion. caused Judge
Bon'iwell to remark today that the pre-
Vailing idea that most Of tho American
refugees have reached home IS not en-
tirely without doubt.
Since the fall term of court began last
week many cases have been postponed
on the grounds that lawyers, litigants or
witnesses are in Europe and have not
vet been able to get home.
Judge Bonnlwell virtually was compelled
to accept the excuses, but still he was
rather skcptical, stating that It would be
interesting to hear some of the defend
ants wealthy enough to go abroad. plead
poverty If they should be convicted when
brought to trial and fines inflicted on
them.
