 WITHOUT END.-There seems no way to bring that famous AIonahan- Metcalf suit u an end. It has been ,ro- ing cn since early last summer. Mrs. Monahan sued Charlotte Metcalf for a beard bilr and having obtained ildg- ment against her. some iewcIry which she had in soak was seized by q .ya,.n- ishment proceeding. It was offered for sale, when a writ of injunction was sued cut and the sale was stopped. The writ was dissolved and the defendant 1 expressed willingness to pay the Judgment. but declined to pay the costs that had been incurred in the garnish- iment preceding. There seemed no way out of it, but yesterday afternoon she filed d supplemental complaint pray ing for an injunction to stop the sale and after a hearing to head it off for ell time. \ temporary injunction was granted and Justice Burnett. in whose court the costs in the g2rnishment case accrued. was permitted to come in as irtervenor. As everything earthly must have an end there is re@sona ble confidence that this case will some time reach a termination.
