   Per Curiam.

Tbe judgment rendered at special term made a reference necessary, therefore it was not final, but interlocutory. Barker v. White, 58 N. Y., 204.

An appeal, however, was taken to tbe general term, and upon exceptions the defendant also moved that court for a new trial under section 1001 of tbe Code. Tbe judgment was affirmed and tbe motion for a new trial denied. One order embraced both decisions, and from the whole of that order tbe defendant appealed.

So far as tbe appeal affects tbe order denying a new trial, it was well taken (§ 190, subd. 2; Raynor v. Raynor, 94 N. Y., 248, 251,) and as tbe motion to dismiss relates to tbe whole appeal, and not a part only, it should be denied, and as tbe plaintiff asks for too much, be should pay costs.

Motion denied, with $10 costs.

All concur.
