 ReiIIy-Lonergan Case Denied--May
 Bound Over to Superior C0urt-City
 Court Cases,
 The quo Warranto suit of Henry Hop lins against Frank P. Cafferty over the office of lamp inspector was listed for trial before Judge Elmer in the superior court yesterday morning, but owing to the absence of Lawyer Charles s. Ham, ilton, the senior counsel in the case, who is still on his vacation in Nova Scotia, Judge Blydenburgh, the associate coun- sel, asked for a continuance.
 After succeeding in getting a post ponement Judge Blydenburgh arose and stated his intention to file a notice to have the case stricken from the docket when the case was next called. If Judge Blydenburgh's motion is sustained it will summarily dispose of the case. The basis of the motion is that Hopkins, when put out of office by Mayor Dris- coll took no appeal to the superior court, as was his right and duty to do, pursuant to section 213 of tbe charter of the city of New Haven, passed at the January session, 1S99 which went into effect July 2, 1899. This appeal was and is his proper remedy, if any be had, but the motion says the court has no juris- diction in the premises under and by virtue of this quo warranto proceeding. The case will be continued to-day.

 for Manslaughter.
 Robert Shields, the greenkeeper at the New Haven Country club. who as- saulted Alfred Swords, a Grand Army veteran, who died two weeks ago at the New Haven hospital, will not be held criminally responsible for causing the old mans death.

It is probable, however that the greenkeep- CT will soon be arrested by the Hamden authorities and tried for simple breach of the peace.
