large number have been pending for
several months, and since this is the
first jury waived term since June, there
is larger number than usual. How
ever, the uncontested cases are gen
orally disposed of in short order.
Yesterday was devoted entirely to the
case of Coyne VS.. Murphy, which has
been referred to before. A bill of
equity was brought against the de-
PENDANT to restrain him from blasting
in a ledge near certain houses, the
property of the plaintiff. Last week a
temporary injunction was granted, but
on agreement of both parts Mr.. Muir
ply suspended operations until the case
could be heard. Coyne claims that the
noise of blasting has disturbed the
tenants of the houses, and that on one
'or two occasions one or more of the
tenements have been struck by flying
pieces of rock, and that by reason of
the noise and disturbance some of the
tenants have left the houses There
were a number of witnesses for the
plaintiff who testified as to the noise
and disturbance caused by the blast
ing. The defence claims that the blast
ing is only at certain times, and that
by reason of it the property has suf-
fered no depreciation. The evidence
was all in yesterday, and today counsel
will make their arguments. City So
licitor Rugg appeared for the plaintiff
and 7. F. Larkin for the defendant.
