IN AND ABOUT THE COURTS
COMMON PLEAS COURT CLEAN ING HoUSE--TWo TRANSACTIONS

Receiver Appointed for Baldwin Print
 Cases Before City Court-Month's
 Cases Cleared Up Before Judge Tyner. With the court of common pleas as a clearing house, couple of rather in- teresting financial transactions took place yesterday morning. Attorney Cornelius J. Danaher of Meriden hand ed over comfortable sum to Attorney c. A. Harrison, who in turn transferred the same amount to Attorney O. H. D. enough to draw an hours interest. All were satisfied, however, and the ruling of Judge Bishop, by which the trans actions were effected will go down as precedent for future proceedings. Representing the plaintiff in the ac- tion of Lionel D. Rice against Samuel E. Annis, Mir Fowler was on hand with his witnesses, insistent that the case i should go on, MT. Harrison pleaded for delay on the ground that his client had not showed up. As the result of the leH5tuy argument, Juuge blSnop OTuer- ed the case off for re-assignment on Friday, at the same time directing that MT. Harrison's client should pay the days expenses for Mr. Fowler's par ties.
 Action is brought by Rice to recover $60, the value of horse rented by him to Annis, which died while in the lat ters possession. E. T. Carter sues for $15O, on the ground that MT. Corrigan had some years ago rented a window in his store, in which to exhibit bi- cycles. Efforts to compromise the case 1 yesterday failed.
