Bracket for S1,0S2 damages for tools,
machinery and furniture destroyed by
the falling of the Bracket building,
which was occupied at the time by the
plaintiffs. 1t is claimed by the plaintiffs
that they were induced by the defend
ant to surrender lease which they had
of two-story building, No. 104 Second
street, and accept in lieu thereof the
second floor of an adjoining five-story
building on the corner of Second street
and First avenue south; that soon after
their removal to this building the de-
PENDANT removed the east wall and
foundation for the purpose of building
on an addition, and negligently and
carelessly allowed large portion of
the material which was removed from
the wall to be piled on the roof and
floors of the building, which had been
deprived of their support by the re-
moval of the wall, thereby causing a
portion of the building to fall and de-
stroy the property of the plaintiffs. The
case will be resumed this morning.
