 In this court yesterday the trial of the suit of Miles and James E. Ball against the American Oyster company, an action brought to decide the title of some oyster ground in the harbor, was resumed before Judge G. W. Wheeler and jury. When court was opened 1t was learned that Harry l.. Paine of Prospect, one of the jurors
 sitting on the case, was i'll and unable to be present in court. After consulting At
 torney Ely and ex-Judge Pickett they
 agreed to go on with the trial with eleven jurors. An agreement was made and
 signed and the taking of evidence Te
 stunned. This manner of bridging oveFths
 difficulty is decidedly novel in the eourtl
 here. The case Is still on trial.
