that no evidence should be introduced
till the afternoon session.

witnesses being disposed of by the
opposing sides agreeing to settle
with those summoned in their own
behalf. the next matter taken up was
the order of proceedings. Over this
point Messrs. Searle and Greer fenced
several minutes, the former claiming
that the objections of Mr.. Moore had
been filed first and contending on
that score for the advantage of posi-
ton i'm the presentation of the obiec-
tions and proof and the latter claim
ing that both had been filed simulta-
neously and insisting upon an equal
advantage. The Judges after con-
ference announced that the obiec-
tions and affirmative evidence of Mr..
Cookies side of the case would be
heard first. An adjournment was
then taken till . o'clock this after
