The Htate objected to the afiidavit that ft did not purge Tate from contempt, sud thercupon debate arose as to whether It was direet or constructive. The State clafmed that it vartook of both. ‘The Court sakl it kuew cuongh of the elrcumstances to warrant pro- ceeding agalnst ‘Tate directly, but it would hear evidence. The defense objected that, if it was direct contempt, the Court could not hear testi- muny, and I 1L was construetive the allidavit of nou-intention of disrespect would purge. The Court ruled, however, that it could hesr evl- dence, and Mr. Hobbs, one of the eyc-witnessea, told the story of the tragedy as he i to the Coroner's Jury, The defense nsked that the Court in making up its judzment should only take Into account the actual Interruption to the vraoceedings, und not the occurrence iu the corridor, and, lnusmuch as the casa on trial at the ttme bad anly been suspended for o few mlnutes, the dunage wns but nominal.
