During several months in 1870 Pnineas H. Kings

some $4,000 to pay the market sweepers, and the
latter assigned TO him their claim. The Board

the amount. A warrant was drawn for rhe same
and Just then came In the Foley Injunction pre-
venting its payment Not having been able since
to get his money from the city, suit was brought
In this Court for the amount. The case came on
for trial yesterday Mr.. William c. Trull appearing
for the plaintiff and Mr. Dean for the city The de-
fence Is that there no appropriation to cover the

year. The rent paid regularly until last year,
when the Comptroller refused payment. and,
thereupon, suit was brought to compel payment

never authorized the hiring of the premises, and
It was insisted that If such thing was allowed all
the departments OF the city might be hiring all
sorts OF premises for all sorts OF purposes Mr..
Dean represented the city and Malcolm Campbell
the plaintiff The jury, however, could not agree
and were discharged.
