PORTIA CAUSES TROUBLE
BRAWL IN PARIS COURT DUEL AS SEQUEL By Cable.—Press Association.—Copyright PARIS, Sunday. Should a magistrate’s lawyer wife appear before him as counsel? Such a situation created an unseemly brawl in a Paris law court a few days ago. Opposing counsel suggested that such a relationship was out of place and unfair to the litigants. The magistrate and counsel exchanged heated insults, and then came to blows, and had to be separated. The sequel yesterday was a fierce six-rounds sword duel. fought in deadly earnest in another lawyer’s garden. One of the duellists was twice deeply wounded in one arm. The doctors then stopped the duel, but the opponents were not reconciled. —A. and N.Z.
