TROUBLE IN A RAILWAY CARRIAGE.

AN EXCITING TIME,

(By Telegraph.-Snocial CorrcspoudenU Chrlstchureh, May 12. According to statements made'at tho Magistrate's Court this morning by the counsel appearing for two men charged with behaviour of an objoctionablo nature in a railway carriage, the ride from Rangiora to' ChriEtchurch after tho recent, races must havo been an exciting time for tho inmates of ono second-class carriage. It seems that a squabble started over a packet' of cigarettes, and the owner of the packet had his head pushed through the glass of a window. Ho retaliated by doing the samo by his assailant. Then one of tho defendants entered the carriage and was knocked down twice. After that ho fought. It was not quite clear with whom tho original assailant escaped, and when the police came the two men charged gave their correct names and paid for the damage done. The police reports of the incident make no mention of the alleged third pnrtv, so tho 'two men were lined —one 10s., and tho other 20s.
