IRK
OF
UDHIflES
SEATTLE, Wnsli., Oct. .1. While
Judgo Humphrlps wns busy dumping
men and women Into Jail In wholesale
lots tlio other JuiIrch who have al
most boon driven to frenzy by his po
cnllar and ocronlrlc nets since ho
took oftleo, met, It Is understood to
devlso waa nnd moans to save the
dignity of the court. It Is expected
that within n shott tlnio. somo defl-
nlto iilun of action against JuilfiO
Humphries will be promulgated.
"Why, It's tho most unheard of
thing," raid Judge Humphries when
he learned that Judgo Smith was un
doing Bomo, of his work. "Judge
Smith has not right to shovo In on
this. My follow members on the
bench hnvo conspired ngnlnst me.
Smith Is certainly not familiar with
criminal law when ho lets those fol
lows out ns fast as I let them In. The
right of habeas corpus does not ap
ply In contempt cases anyway."
Contradicted tiy Widow
A dramatic touch to tho odd spec
taclo In Judgo Humphries' court yes
terday was Introduced when the court
In a wild harangue warned those who
were In tho campaign to make n farco
or his authority that they might find
themselves In tho same conspiracy
situation as that which sent Editor
Parsons In tho Haymarkct anarchist
case In Chicago. In 1S91, to tho gal
lows for murder.
"That Is untrue," came a voice
from tho rear of tho room. It was
a thin, end, trombllng voice. "I am
Parsons widow. Ho was an Inno
cent man."
Judgo Humphries stared at the
woman for a moment or two. Then
ho bluntly announced that "widow or
no widow, ho would throw her Into
Jail ir sho spoko again.
In Jnll With Itnltc In Arms
Mrs. William McNally, a young
woman, canio to tho witness stand
with a baby In her arms. She Is one
of tho nlnetv-nlno who signed tho
letter of dcflanco against tho Judge.
She said sho signed it because sho be
lieved she was fighting for a Just
principle Humphries was appar
cntlr loath to send her to Jail. So he
attempted conciliation by asking her:
"You know now you did wrong,
don't you?"
Mrs. McNally refused to admit It.
Tho Judgo tried onco more.
"Now If I let you go this tlmo, will
you promlso not to do wrong again?"
Mrs. McNally's eyes flashed fire.
"I never did anything wrong In my
life." sho said, "and I don't Intend
to. I always try to do right."
Judgo Humphries had to give up.
"Well," ho said, "on account of
tho baby I will lot you off with pay
ment of costs, only $2."
AVIiolesalo Arrest
"I won't pay It." promptly roplled
Mrs". McNally, and to Jail sho went.
Tho matron took caro of the baby
over night. William McNally, her
husband was fined $100 and costs,
and ho went to Jail, too. Tho Mc
Xallys havo lived In Seatlo for 23
years.
Mrs. Hanna Anderson was asked If
sho had any respect for courts.
"I havo," sho replied, "but not for
this ono."
This elicited a round of applaure
from tho crowd, which was packed
lu tho room llko sardines.
Judgo Humphries ordered tho do
puty sheriffs to locate those who ap
plauded. Out of the wholo crowd, A
O. Saylor and Roy Draper were haled
They admitted they clnpped their
hands, and wero each given six
months In Jail and $300 fine.
"I'll rot In Jail before I'll pay tho
fine," said Draper.
Edmund Doyctto also drew six
months in Jail and $300 flno. Ho
was asked what explanation ho had
for signing tho letter of contempt.

They nsert :
"It appears to n quite impossi
