QUITE A LITTLE TESTIMONY ADDUCED ©ounty wdge Manneman, Judge Osborne And Others Tell of the Courts' “Uranky Spells,” and Give Detalls of & Few of Them. Bramr, Neb, Oct. 20.-[Spocial to Tue Bee. | —When Attorneges J. W. Gragory, G. W. Ambrose, W, W. Morsman and John Bohomp of Omana and W. H. Ktler of Biair reachied the Washington county court house this morning they found no one present to air greivancos against Judge C. R Scott, and Committeeman Eller sugzested the follow Ang gentieme=n as possiole witnesses: W. S, Cook, N. E. David, W.C. Walton, Jesso T. Davis, L. W. Osborne, J. Lothrop and L. C. Kller, attorneys; Goorgo A. Boggs, law student; 1. Harriman, sheriff; C. Moncke, deputy sherif; 1. Hanuoman, county judge: . W. Wilsou, farmer; I. S. Gaylord, stockman. Chairman Grogory dictated a notics in Viting tLoss eentiemen to appoar bofore the committes, and then its mambers sat down to wait, whilsa young man want out with tho invitation to skirmish for witnesses. John Lothrop soon strolled in and was puton the witness stand. Mr. Lothrop had cases bofora such term of court at which Judge Scott presidod, but he had no fault to find and bad no porsousl knowladge of un- pleasant relations between court and bar. Then the committes started in on another wait. Judge Ambrose waudored avout the bullding and shortly returned with Judgo Hanneman, who had given him a privata recital. Scott Lectured n Plaintif, Judge Hanneman detailed the circum- stances of a trial in which a Mrs, I'reeman sued for a divorce, She charged cruelty and nonsupport and proved it by several w nesses. Hor husband had filed a cross bill alloging adultery, but offored no evidenco and in fact did not put inan appsarance, Judgoe Scott gave Mrs. Freeman n severo cross- ation and lectured her soundly ou the cnormity of adultery, a crime, he said, that would send her to the penitentia She had ageeed by stipulation to surrende her children to Frooman aud the judge twitted her about that, He appeared to be angry, talked n great deul aad acted un dignified and uagentlemanly. He refused to rive a decron, The witness believed Mvs, Froeman to bo a good, hard working woman, She is livine at Arlington ana worked ail summer in a restaurant to provide for her- self and children, Tho witness saw Judeo Scott “sit down’ on attornoys protty severely on a dozen oc- ousions. “He gots red 1n the face and draws down the corners of his mouth,” said the witness. 41 think he cets rattied, He isnot just right in the upper story.” On ono oceasion Judge Scott interrupted L. W. Osborne and angrily said: “*Shut up, sitdown! I nia satisticd oun that point.’ The witness said Mr. Osborne was mild of manner and, 5o far as he knew, never said or did anything disrespectful to a court. The witness said Judge Scott had dismissed sev- eral cases becauso the attornoys were not present when called, and there was general dissatisfrotion among members of the bar at the treatment of the cour No Gr ere. At the afternoon session five or six attor- neys put in an appearance. Jesse T. Davis testitied that he had not noliced anything aeriouslv objactionable in the conduct of Judgo Scott excent that the court insisted on erowding business with inconvenient haste, in somo cases refusing to eive attorneys timo 0 securs needed papers. Duving the Sep- tember term Judge Scott cams into the court room without asign of racozuition to the members of the bar, which seemed odd. Tho juage spoke with some temper to Attorney Osborneon one occasion, and had a practice of speaking sharply in addressiag o Jawyers. The objection, if any, was to the manner vather than the matter ot his re- marks, but at tho close of the September term there was a vory general dissatisfaction with the court’s ietiiods. The witness had had soveral arguments with the judge, but he had Do greater cause for complaint thun with other judges; in short, he uimself had no grievauce whatever. Was Judge and Prosecator. W. C. Walton, one of the attorneys in_the Freoman divorco case, said that Mr. and Mrs. Froeman mot & few days ocforo the trial and agreed to a stipulation aividing their prop- erty and awardiug the cusiody of the chil aren to the husband, the wifo also waiving her claim to alimony. At tho trial tho de- fendant appoared only by attoruoy and of- forod no ovidouce in support of the charge of adultery. On the other hand a sister and a sister-lu-iaw testified iv positive terms to the piaintif®s excellent reputation and Mr. Wal- ton himself kuew 1t had been good for a year previous. Judge Scott examined Mrs, Freeman sharply and sought, spparently, to cstablish the fact thut there lad been a private under- standing boetween Freeman and his wife by which he agreed not to press the charge of adultery in considoration of he alimon Tho judge lectured the wowan quite soverely on tho enormity of the crime charged by tho husband and refused to give her a docren of divorce. ‘I'he court was not very diguifiod, and seomed to be hotly con- testing the question of the woman's virtue, although bad denied the enarge of adul- tery. Judge Scott evidently thought thero bad beon collusion between Mr, and Mrs Freeman to secure the divoree, but witness was contident that ho was mistaken, Judgoe Scott had stopped attorueys abruptly while speaking and ouco he hud spoken sharply to Mr. Osborne, whose attention haa been distracted momentarily from the proceedings, but he snw no occasion for s2ri- ous complaint at the couduct of the court, At the bogluuing of the Septomber term tho metabers of tho bar bad & friendly feeline for Judge Scoti, but av tho end of * the term there was geaeral dissatisfaction among them. Qualified by Several Strong Adjectives, L. W. Osborne said the relations between Judge Scott and the local bar were cordial until the begioning of the September term, when the former came into th without recoguizing any of the attorneys, which was unusual and caused commwent. The judge baa been proc bis alle, pare their causes, but il re Wis no con- spiracy Lo continue their cases, Judge Scotl's manuer throughout the Soptember torm was “insolent, oppressivo, insulting and tyranieal.” Tho witness re- viewed several cases in which the interests of the litizunts seemed 1o require continu- ances, Such coutinuauces had been agreod on by the stipulation, but Judee Scott struck the casos from' the docket without leave or veinstate. ‘Thero was no apparent reason for tho court's uction, escapt its vanity in carrying out its way of doing busi- ness. Tuo witnoss related several instances in whieh tho court hud treated him insultingly, lv ono case hoglanced over his shoulder the souud of au opeuing door, the court said shurply: “Mr Osborne, I want you tolook at me, sir.”” The witness caught sight of nis son, who he deared Lroushit news of the death of his wifo's mother. Ho asked psrmission to speak to the young man aud the court responded tes- tily: “No, sir.” Judge Scott then turned 10 another attoruey in Lue case with w romark interded o be insulting to the wituess. From the becinning of the Septamber term the witness felt that bis personal liverty was in danger. 1o thought the court was seeking & pretoxt to order him uud other atiorneys iuto the custody of the sheriff. Ho was pros- trated, sick, und in the care of a doctor. He knew from observation aud hearsay that he was not the oaly attornev who had suffered in this way, aod that others ulso had sleen less tights from the sawe cause.

When Mr. Eller reminded the judge that he had boen excused the court said: “Well, that don’t make auy difference. Attorneys must bo here when their cases are d The attorney then asked for time to file a bill of exceptions, which was refused. Dur- ing a subsequant trial Judge Scott called Ilier to him ava asked the attorncy for his tine of defense. After h ing 1t the judee asked : YWill you make an aMdavit with that showing! 1'ho attorney said ho would, but when the case came up tho court rafused to sot aside its decree on the groand that the attorney had made no showing as to the reason for his absence when tho action was first dis- missed 1.
