Withg’nthe close of yesterday’s pro- ceedings in the Dr. Nancy A. Guilford trial the court adjourned until Mon~ day. The trial has been in progress eight days and it is believed that one day more will suffice to complete the evidence of the state.‘ Considerable time was devoted with testimony tending to identify the sig- nature of Mrs. Guilford, to show that Mrs. Guilford received money and tele- grams from Oxley. DetegtiveGeorge Arnold on the cross- examination to-day told of the condi- tion of the rooms and closets in his Guilford home last September when he was searching them for incriminating evidence. In the bath room he de- tected an odorsimilar to that of car- bolic acid. He found a saw which it 15 thought was used to cut up Emma Gill’s body in the bath room. With the presentation of Detective Arnold’s testimony was the first suggestion made by the state that the actual mur- der of the girl was committed in Nancy Guilford’s house. I, UndertakerJohn Cullinan was among the witnesses and during the cross- examination he told of the identifica- tion of the remains by Frank Perkins of Middleboro, Mass, as those of his daughter Grace, and also of sending the body to Middleboro, Mass, under the name of Grace Perkins. The defense has been unable hereto- fore to get this evidence admitted and in their opinion it throws some doubt on the positive identification of Emma Gill. The state fought strenuously for its exclusion, but was unsuccessful. Howard C. Guernsey, a druggist of Southington and a friend of Harry .Ox- ley, told of receiving a bundle of let- ters from Oxley on the day that an- nouncement was made. of the finding of portions of the body in Yellow Mill pond, and, thinking that they might have some connection with the murder mystery, be destroyed them the day Oxley was arrested. " Detective Arnold was the concluding witness .of the afternoon and he was recalled for the fifth. time since the trial opened. -——————<’o.o>— Mrs. C. 1A.

Wheeler, whois presid- ing over the trial of Dr. Nancy A. Guilford for murder, yesterday ren- dered a‘ decision in the proceedings against Langdon Smith, the descriptive writer on the New York Journal, ad- judging him in coatempt of court, and imposing a fine and imprisonment. Mr. Smith is out of the jurisdiction of the court, but will find it risky to return “to Connecticut. He is liable to arrest. upon the judgment if found within the. bOM‘deI'S of the state. Smith’s case has attracted wide at- tention. He was arrested last Monday“ in the court upon a complaint drawn by State’s Attorney Fessenden, upon the request of the court, for having published two articles that were of- He admitted their authorship in a general way, and fensive to the court. was ordered to appear before the court that afternoon. Smith the previous Friday had been informed by the court to appear Monday. " His lawyer at the hearing Monday afternoon was anxious to have the case disposed of, but owing to the fact that Smith’s copy at the telegraph office could not be obtained at that time, Judge Wheeler Ordered the case post- poned until Tuesday at 5 o’clock. Tues- ,day, on request by telegram, another adjournment was ordered, and Wed- nesday Smith failed to put in an ap- earance. The matter was proceeded with, Judge Wheeler taking the papers. Judge Wheeler in his memorandum says:' “I find that said articles were an un- fiir account of said case on trial,unduly interfered with the administration of justice, "and were calculated to preju-‘V diée the jury and the public as to the merits of the case on trial, and that this is especially true of those parts of ‘the articles contained between the lines referred to in paragraph 6 of the .com- plaint.” _ ’ 4 The court then points out the 0b- -je_ctionable parts, speaking specially of the criticism of and reflection upon the jury. He then says: “It was the intention of the court, in case the matters contained in the, application were proven and Mr. Smith failed to purge himself pending the determination of the case on trial to suspend judgment and finally to dis- pose of the matterunless something happened to prevent such disposition, with the utmost leniency permissible under the circumstances. “But the present condition of 'the cause.

All that it seeks to prevent is unfair treatment of a cause on trial, and of those responsible for the conduct of the trial. or compelled by process of the law to be present at said trial. A “It recognizes that .l\’.ll‘.' Smith is a subordinate, acting under instruction, writing for pay, and that primarily his superiors are responsible for the character of his work; it recognizes that he is following a practice which has for a few years past prevailed with certain newspapers, and that the rea- son these abuses in the publication of court proceedings exist is largely the fault of the courts themselves in nor. having long since . stopped them. While these things cannot justify these contempts, they ought to be taken into consideration in imposing penalties. "It is ordered and adjudged that said Smith is guilty of contempt of court, and that he pay a fine of $50 and be imprisoned in the county jail at Bridgeport for the term of five days and that he be committed to said jail and confined therein until this judgment is complied with or until he is discharg- ed by order of this court, or otherwise by due process of law.” There is but one similar case on rec- ord in the Connecticut courts, that against E. B. Middlebrook of Bridgeport Old practitioners at the bar recall the While the late W. K. Seeley was arguing .a case in court. Middlebrook, becoming offended struck him with a chair. He then tied somewhat famous case. the jurisdiction and remained away. Judge Lyman D. Brewster, then pre' siding over .the court of Common pleas, adjudged Middlebrook guilty of con- tempt, and ordered himto pay a fine of of $100 and to be imprisoned 30 days. This occurred in 1872. The defendant remained out of the state ever after. On one occasion, by the grace of Mr. Seeley. he was per- mitted to return to attend the funeral of 'a relative. Midnlebrook died about. seven yearsago. , ———-——<o.o>—-—————————- ‘_ His‘. Life “Was Saved. Mr. J. E.
