Walter S. NEWHOUSE, appellant and respondent, v. SCHUNDLER & DE SOLA, Inc., respondent and appellant.
    Appeal No. 1.
    (Supreme Court, Appellate Division, Second Department.
    November 19, 1915.)
   Order on motion for judgment on the pleadings modified by striking out the following provision: “Ordered, that plaintiff’s demurrer to the fifth defense in the answer of defendant Schundler & De Sola, Incorporated, be and it is hereby overruled,’’ and substituting therefor, “Ordered, that the plaintiff’s demurrer to the fifth defense in the answer of defendant Schundler & De Sola, Incorporated, be and it is hereby allowed,’’ and, as modified, affirmed, with $10 costs and disbursements to plaintiff-appellant. The ground of this decision is that in the contract of the maker there was not such an alteration as would avoid the instrument. Jenks, P. J., and Stapleton, Mills, Rich, and Putnam, JJ., concur.
