CITY DAMAGE SUIT.
Argument on a Demurrer in the Duncan
Case.

NJ euHthl on demurrer IN the duncan
Case
Ia the Superior Court, yesterday after
noon, City Solicitor S. D. Townsend, Jr.,
and Assistant City Solicitor Herbert L.
Rice, representing the city, and Reuben
Satterthwaite and Daniel o. Hastings,
representing Herman f. Duncan, argued
a demurrer in the case Of Duncan against
the city for damages for personal injuries
alleged to have been sustained by falling
into an opening in Brandywine Park at
Tatnal street The case was not con-
cluded yesterday afternoon. Il will be
concluded later.
Messrs. Townsend and Rice contended
that Brandywine Park is a place of public
amusement and that the city is not liable
for accidents there.
Following are the contentious Of City
Solicitor Townsend:
"lhat when a municipality is engaged
in the performance Of public service.
in which it has no particular interest
and from which it derives no special
benefit or advantage in its corporate
capacity, it is not liable for negligence;
that where it is bound in the performance
OF a duty imposed upon it by law foi
for the general welfare Of the inhabitants
OF Of the community the same rule ap
plies" Il was urged that the act
creating the Board Of Park Commissioner,
provided that the purpose Of the parl
was for the promotion Of health, and i
is contended by the defendant that mat
ters Of public health come under thu
I police powers OF the State, which wa
strictly governmental, and that the cit,
IN ITS police powers acts for the Stat
and is therefore not liable.

dons was in session for over two hours,

also preventing a wholesale jail delivery
later, and in view of the fact that he had
proved a model prisoner.
In the case Of Boozer, a further reprieve

by the board in order TO allow his counsel,
]. Frank Ball, to have additional wit
nesses from Virginia present TO identity
him as being the man who worked IN

Of the murder Of George d. farra, on
