INTERESTING CASES TO MECHANICS AND
BTILDgRs.-A few months ago a number of
latoTers employed in excaVating fouEda-
tons Tor a proposed block OF new build
inEs on the corner Of sd and VI streets, fearing
that the contractor was not intending to paw
them wages in full, served notices under the
amended mechanics lien law on the owner of
the property that they should look 10 him for
pay. The owner, however, refused TO pay, and
they entered suits before Justice Taylor
therefor, and judgments were given for plain
tiffs. The defence was that he had paid all he
had agreed TO pay for digging the foundation.
and appeals were taken to the Circuit Court
which we're docketsd yesterday.
