Surety Companies in Dispute.

Judge Wheeler stated the case of the American Surety company vs. the Pa cific Surety company berore a jury in the civil side of the superior court yesterday morning.
 This is a case which excited a great deal of newspaper notoriety when the facts were being enacted in 1903.

 The American Surety company was on the bond for the Norwich firm and the city brought suit, recovering the money from the surety company.
 It was then claimed ny the American company that the Pacific company had insured them against loss and the pres ent suit is an attempt to recover from the Pacific company.
