amount of £l,lOO. Soon after the verdict was
given in the case of Risk Allah v. the Daily tele-
graph, tried recently at Westminster, the proprietoro
of that journal were served with the notice of all
attachment on behalf of the City Offices ComPallci
Phis led to an application at Judges' Chambers, a%
Mr. Justice Smith ordered the money to be. Pal
into Court.

This morning Mr. Henry James said he had t°
bring under the notice of the Court that there vrt°
ui action in the present case, and on behalf of 11'
clients he should have to oppose it.
His Lordship suggested that the application
should be made at a later period of these sicting°'
Mr. Talfourd Salter did not object, and the CO°
stood over.
