was substantially the same painful
malady as that which but recently ter
minated the life of General John A
Dix, and has, it may be observed, rur

Magarity Case Resumed Evidence
Being Taken.
Specially Reported Tor the Republican.
New CASTLE, May 26, 10.
The case Of Magarity Va. City Of VIII.
mington was called this morning. The
defence resumed the examination of its
witnesses by calling William Forr est
who stated that he examined the prop
erty of MI. Magarity during the sum
mer and he estimated the damages at
about $500 which represented damae 81
to the building, and that he would not
give the full price to the property by
81 900 on account ofits liability to over
flow.
City Surveyor Conwell stated that the
curb lines at Mr.. Magarity's were made
in accordance with the city ordinance
but that there was no established rules
for grading along Maryland avenue.
Seymour Thomas, assistant engineer,
testified as to the depth Of the cellar
and its elevation above the bottom of
the sewer. The sill of the lower floor is
eighteen feet above the tide water and
the cellar is two feet seven inches above
the sewer; there is between 20 and 25
feet of dirt in Monroe street between
the sewer and the cellar of Mr.. Magyar
ity.
Frederick H. Robinson, sworn:-Am
assistant surveyor, was at Mr.. Magyar.
ity's premises on 9Th of May, Mr.. Ma
garity was with us; he stated that he
wasn't complaining Of the sewer but Of
the water that flowed down from the
streets.
Levi II. Springer was called upon to
show that all the water of Shipley Run,
ran through 7 feet culvert at Mary.
land Avenue, there being no cement on
its sides or bottom.
Cross-examined Never been there
while it has been raining, there is a
greater amount of water now running
through than at the time the old sewer
was in operation.
Joseph l.. Carpenter, sworn: Have
heard Of Magarity's trying to dispose Of
his property think that the improve
ments upon the street have been benef-
cial to Mr.. Magarity am a builder,
wouldn't think the site was a proper
place to erect a dwelling house upon !;
it was we'll enough for place of busi-
ness.
Cross Examined: First houses l built
was in 1867; merely superintended
their erection; am what might be called
a speculator; would not care to live in
Magarity's house, but is a convenient
place for coal yard and residence to.
gethsr, but not desirable.
The testimony here closed for the de-
fence and Mr.. Lore called Washington
Cox to reply. He is now being exam
ined.
