Attorney VIM. LANCER has taken an
appeal to the supreme court from the
decision of Judge Nuessle.
Attorney J. F. Sullivan, in behalf of
Hebron clients, alleged owners Of the
wine confiscated year ago, brought
suit against Sheriff Mcdonald to re-
cover the wine which is in his Gus
tody. States Attorney LANCER filed a
demurrer to the suit, charging that its
representations did not constitute
cause for action.
This demurrer was argued before
Judge Nuessle and about two weeks
ago and the demurrer was an appeal to
the supreme court slated to be tried at
the December term of court. However,
the appeal forestalls that action.
The supreme court is asked to
decide on the demurrer decision as
made by Judge Nuessle. If the de-
murrer is sustained the next action
must come from the wine owners,
il ocerruled it will be tried in the
