   PER CURIAM.

We do not think the defendant was entitled to enter any final judgment upon this dismissal until the remaining issues were disposed of; but, as the plaintiff does not appear from the order allowing a final judgment to stand, the question is not before us. In no event, however, could the defendant be entitled to a judgment for costs as against the plaintiff at this stage of the action, and until the remaining issues are finally disposed of.

The order, therefore, is affirmed, with $10 costs and disbursements.
