A JUDICIAL SQUABBLE.

())Y TKJ.KORAPH.—I'MOSS ASSOCIATION.)

IsvEßOAßflitXj this day. Some time ago, Judgo Ward orderod tho criminal prosecution of a de ferred payment settlor named Daniel Henry, for fraudulent bankruptcy, he having failed to give a sdWsfactpry ex planation of what ho had done with a cheque for i'SO, which was in his possession two weeks before filing. The acoueed was brought before tho R.M. Court, and dis charged on the ground that the statements made by him before the Official Assignee as to the cheque could not be received against him in a criminal charge. The magistrate also held that there was no evidence to prove that accused was the man who cashed tho cheque. At the next sitting of the District Court Judgo Ward passed some strictures on the action of the Magistrate, who, ho remarked, held peculiar viov/s on the bankruptcy law. Tho Magis trate (Mr MoCullpch) replied to tho judgo, stating the facts of the case, and character ised the remarks of the judgo as uncalled for, unwarranted, and offensive. At Saturday's Kitting of tho District Court, the judge, in answer to tho Official Assignee, said that Henry should be ordered to appear for ex aajinution, and if ho did not attend, the case to be struck out. The judge referred at length to the natuco of t)?o evidence, and concluded as follows :—" I regret that the R.M. Court should have developed such psculiar views of the law for my own Bake. Hitherto I have directed proepcutions to be commenced in this Court, not deeming it a.ivisable that the same judge should act as committing magistrate and preside at the trial, but in future I must undertake* the preliminary inquiry myself in order to pre vent a total failure of justice."
