A motion to dismiss the suit of Mrs.

farmer, on an alleged contract, was made II
her behalf yesterday, because she had

for 500, 600 damages. She did not employ
the same attorney in the Stockton suit, and
the counsel in the divorce suit opposed the
motion 70 dismiss, because they have not
been paid their fees. The matter was finally
continued, but during the proceedings the
