The Solicitor Wins.

During the session of the Court of
Errors and Appeals at Dover, yes
terday, the Monroe street sewer
canes came up for final considera-
tion. These cases grew out of the
proceedings instituted by the city,
for the settlement of certain liens
entered against the VIM. Montgom-
cry estate and other properties, for
the construction Of the Monroe
street sewer. The parties resisted
the enforcement of these liens, and
obtained an injunction restraining
the city from taking further proceed
ings at that time. The case was
then heard before the Court of Chan
Gerry, and resulted in the issuance Of
decree by the Chancellor dismiss
ing the injunction. The property
owners took exceptions to this de-
cree and took the case to the Court
Of Errors and Appeals, where it
was finally settled yesterday. The
decision of this Court which was de-
lvered by Judge Wales, affirmed
the decree of the Chancellor, and
the city is now at liberty to proceed
to collect the amount of the liens in
the usual manner prescribed by law.
City Solicitor Macallister managed
this case in the Court of Errors and
Appeals on behalf of the city. The
amount of the liens involved is
about two thousand dollars.
