The commissioners saId they would give hIm employment , working on repairs In the drain pIpes surrounding the county jail.

This program may not be car- ned out , however , as tt Is expected that the owners of the property will apply for an " - junction to restrain the board from acting on the ground that they expect to put up a new building and that to construct a sidewalk now would be a useless expense.

J. Davis , appearing for Mr. lieckett , asked leave , In order to make a record , ta offer evidence for the defense. "I will not accept your offer , Mr. Davis , " said the court. "There Is no law that authorIzes - thorIzes the taking or testimony when the contempt was committed In the presence of the court , I11 not allow you to stuff this case simply for the purpose or slIng it. " Mr. Davis . then offered afdavis of partes who were In time room \hen the trouble oc- curred. "I won't listen to them , " said the court. "I won't allow attorneys t decide whether or not a court was In uled when the offense was committed In the presence or the court. The court Is tht sole judge In such cases. " The court then took up the statEment or Mr. l3eckett . made In hIs defense before the court last Tuesday morning. He said that no attorney had a right to do things that looked like an assault , and that Mr. Declwtt'e statement that he Intended no assault 01 .he court would not bold. The court had ordered \Ir : Bcckett to leave the room , and hall ordered the bailiff to put him out. Mr Decket claimed that he had been wren ' fully assaulted by the bailiff. I that were true he had been assaulted by the court , am the bailiff was only obeying the court's erdon The court sid that Mr. BeckeU's alleged apology hal only added Insult la Injury. He said there were some maters bearing upon his mind that were very aggravating , but he would not speak of them , as he had been requested not to 10 ! so by the elerendant. "Tho finding or lime court , " saId . the judge , "Is that \Ir. : Dee.tt Is guIlty of very gross cantempt. The Judgment of the court Is that he be fined $100 and costs or this prase- cuton and be confined In the jai or the county until the fine Is paid I11 suspend the execution of the sentence until the first day or the next term of court and unless the defendant gets down off . his hIgh horse antI publicly apologizes to thIs court by that time publcI ) lme I wl order disbarment proceedings com- mencell against him. " \Ir. : Davis offered a motion for a new trIal , which was prompty and emphatically over- 'ruled.

The horses or the police patrol department had short rations yesterday , and I they could be understood It ' Is not unlikely that they would express their dIssatisfaction with the acton or the city council , which compelled their partial starvaton , Soon after the conncl declared by resolu- ton that I would not olclaly recognize the Board ef Fire and Police Commissioners Camptroler Olsen refused to approve the rel- ulsltons or the board for feed and sup- plies for the fire and police tlepartmnemmts lie notified the ceuncl of lila acton ant It was apprrved. Then several members Inquired If I was the policy af the council to starve the horses In order to spite the board and the majority or the members extrIcated themselves - selves from a rather embarrassing position by referring the mnter to the finance commit- tee. At that time I was stated that the com- miee would be expected to see that the tm6ises were red and that without recognizing the . Board of Fire and ! Police Commmmnissiommers. Under this acton Fire Chief Hedel was directed - rected by the committee to purchase reed an the open market for his department until other arrangements were made. But the pa- trol horses were not taken Into consideration - ten anti yesterday morning the supply or oats anti hay In the police stables ran short Notwlhstamlng the fact that the horses had nothing to cat , the comptroller still refused to-mommor a requisition and the finance com- mitee seemed to have forgotten that there was ' such a department on earth : Finally the board Issued orders to Captain 1ostyn to go ahead and buy n IIPply or reed and toke chances on getting It paid for , and . this was done. .
