Section 80 does not prima facie require preliminary inquiries to be in camera; the magistrate erred in excluding the press while admitting the public, that error was apparent on the face of the record and the order was one no magistrate properly directing himself could have made, therefore certiorari should issue to quash the order and remit the matter for hearing in open court.
