A rrial which created a great deal of interest was held in the Orange hall, Ceylon, on Wednesday evening of last week. In-fur,- a bench of four magistrates, viz., Messrs. James McMullon, J. Boyd, Mark Armstrong and R. McGill. The complainant, was License Inspector Hal- bert, and tho defendant A. Muushaw of Fleshertrm. The charge was one of ob- structing an officer in t ho discharge of his duty. T!ie alleged offence occurred when High County Constable Cook un- dertook to locale contraband bcoze in the Munshaw house and requested Mr. Mun&huw to take up 11 portion of tho floor in order that ho might see what was beneath. Mr. Munshaw refused to do this but gave the constable permission to undertake the job himself. This Con- stable Cook declined to do and invited Inspector Halbert to lay i charge of ob- struction. After hearing the case tho magistrates decided tli.ii, there was no breach of tho law on Mr. Munshaw's part and tho case ws consequently dis- missed.
