MILLER'S ACTION FOR LIBEL THROWN
 OUT BY COURT

George c. MfIler,s $50, 900 libel suit, nfae of the two libel actions brought 4gainst the Bellamore Armored Car & Equipment Co., was thrown out of d6urt today when Judge Howard J. Curtis in the superior court allowed a motion of non-suit filed by the eoun- sel for the Equipment Go. This means that the s5OsO0O suit brought by Harry D. Miller, father of George c. Miller, will have no standing in court
 The two actions resulted from the iftfxatiora which ensued when the Rrfdgeport Vehicle Go. was absorb ed by the Equipment Go. Harry D. Miller was president of the Vehicle CD and his son was also a stockhOlder. Alter John T. King was appointed re- Safver Of the concern, Mrs Harry D. Miller brought suit against the Eqiup- nrent Go. for the recovery of an au- tofnobfIe, which she claimed the com rany was wrongfuily holding
 In answer to this counsel for the Eduipments Go set forth that Harry D. and George C. Miller had nisused funds and stock belonging to the com pany and that the car had been taken is part payment. The allegations in morning paper and the libel suits were based upon this publication. In filing the non-suft motion counsel for the company said there could be no libel fa g case of this kind because an an- swer is a privilege so long as it per- fasns to the subject matter. Judge Ez1 K. Nicholson, for Miller, declared Enc answer was made with malice and that 1t was immaterial. To support this contention he quoted the fact that tne common pleas court had ordered the answer stricken out.
 James F. Cosgrove, ar1ocaI newspa- perman, testified that he obtained the facts in the answer flem Attorney Mallette before the paper had been fl1ed in court His story was publish cd in the Telegram, where he was em- 11oyed at that time. Right after Cos grove's testimony arguments on the non-suit motion were begun and o'clock.
