Decree Made Final-An interlo-
cutlery decree Of divorce granted
Marie Moore from Edgar Moore
November 27. 1884 on grounds Of
extreme cruelty was made final by
Judge r. .. McPheTin IN superior
court yesterday.

Plea Is Defective

Therefore it can readily be seen
that the plea in abatement is de-
fective, and further in the case
of Corporate Investing Company
VS.. Mt. Vernon Product Company,
200 N. Y. S. 372, the court there
held that to maintain the objec-
ton of another cause Of action
pending there must be a complete
identity of parties, causes of &C.
ton, and judgment sought and
there must be shown that full re-
lief can be obtained in the first
proceeding.
In the case of Ross VS.. Miller,
242 Fed. 697, a bill in equity was
brought in the Federal District
Court of West Virginia by the
plaintiff to set aside the cancella-
ton of a satisfaction of judg-
ment against certain property Of
the defendant. The defendant
filed a motion to dismiss the bill
on the ground Of the pendency
of an identical suit by the same
parties in the U. S. District Court
for the western district Of Vir-
ginia. The Circuit Judge Knapp
speaking on this point said (242
Fed 697:
1--WE are also of the opinion
that the dismissal of plaintiffs

tendency Of q similar suit, pre-

PLEA IN ABATEMENT

I. A plea in abatement based
on the pendency of another action
must clearly shOw that the action
is the identical cause Of action
and thGt it is betWeen the same
parties
2. In order that the pendency
of former action may Be inter.
posed az a bar to a second action,
the identical cause of action in
serted in the second suit must Be
Prssented for adjudication in the
first suit.
,. A plea in abatement should
set forth facts with the utmost
fullness, PGrticuI0 ity and Gccu-
TGcy, 'e0UinG nothing to Be sup.
piled by intsndment and no sup
POs0ble special ansWev.
In the case of Brown VS.. Me-
tropilitan Casualty Insurance
Company Of New York, at law No.
83978, a plea in abatement was
filed, contending that a former
suit had been filed involving the
same writing obligatory as set
forth in the declaration of the in
stant case, and the cause now
comes on for hearing before Mr..
Justice Bailey on demurrer to
said plea in abatement.
The law is well settled that in
order to sustain the plea of an
other action pending it must ap-
pear not only that there is an
other action pending between sub.
stantially the same parties, but
also that the causes Of action and
issues involved are substantially
the same and where there is moth
ing in the record to show the
subject matter Of the former &C
ton or the relief sought, the plea
is bad. Humble VS.. Warren 1876 Pa.

BAR WILL SEEK
LUNACYLAW
REVISION

Following q report by the Bar
Association committee on sug-
gestions that the lunacy laws Of
the District are defective in the
matter Of providing for judicial
action when a non compos mentis
RECEIVERS, a committee, has been
appointed to make a thorough
study Of the lunacy practice in this
jurisdiction.
Hundreds of thousands Of dol
lars annually are handled by COM
mittees Of the estates Of persons
who have been adjudged non
compos mentis and the volume
Of this type Of administration is
so great that the practice has be-
come almost q speciality. Because
Of its steady increase, it was
deemed advisable to make the
study at this time TO prepare Tor
future exigencies.
Thomas Gillespie Walsh, as
sistant corporation counsel Of the
District Of Columbia, who has ap-
peared for the District in many
such cases, is chairman Of the
committee.
Miss Elizabeth Meigs, assistant
clerk Of the District Supreme
Court in charge Of lunacy records,
Is an ex officio member She will
give the committee the benefit
Of her experience and observations
In lunacy practice.
Other members Of the commit
tee are attorneys who have con-
siderable practice in this work.
They include: Julian G. Ham

Subjects Different

"Such suits have the same
parties, to be sure, and are
based on the same judgment;
but they differ in subject mat
ter because each is concerned
with o separate piece Of prop
erty; Of course, there can be
but one satisfaction for there
Is only one judgment to be en-
forced. Whatever, therefore,
may be realized in the first
suit concluded must be credited
in the suit that remains pend.
ing; and there Is ample author
ity to protect against double
recovery.
Moreover it is not here Ques.
toned that the court below has
full discretion to stay the prose
cutiOn Of this suit or postpone
its trial, to await the outcome
of the prior Virginia suit. All
we have occasion now to decide
Is that both can be maintained
at the same time, though
brought for the same purpose,
and that the pending Of the
jurat is not adequate grounds
for dismissing the second"
See also the case Of Walker VS.
Wilkinson, 3 Fed. End series, 869
The plea in abatement is fur
ther defective in that it does moi
set forth with particularly anc
precision any facts showing the
identity Of the causes Of actor
and the issues involved.
A plea in abatement should sci
forth fact with utmost fullness
particularly, and accuracy, leav
ing nothing to be supplied by in
tendment and no supposable Sre
cial answer unobviated. American

Must Be Same Cause

A plea in abatement based on
tendency of another action must
clearly show that the action is the
identical cause of action and that
it is between the same parties.
American Surety Co. VS.. Sours SO
N. E. 829.
In order that the tendency of
a former action may be interposed
as a bar to a second action, the
identical cause of action inserted
in the second suit must be pre-
Sented for adjudication in the first.
Higgins vs.. Lamoreaux 159 MINI.
1876, 1913 N. w. 408; Murphy VS..
Hasselbach I'll N. Y. S. 287; Sc
bring VS.. Quinn ITO N. Y. s. II.
The plea in abatement in the
other case merely alleges that the
suit at Law No. 83977 is brought
upon the same identical bond
that suit is brought on in Law
No. 83978 and that the parties
in both suits are identically the
same but the plea in abatement
does not allege that the causes
of action are identical and that
the issues raised in both cases
are the same. This could not be
alleged because the issues in both
cases are distinct and different
each from the other; in suit At
Law No. 83977, suit is brought on
bankers blanket bond charging
certain defalcations and actions
Of theft on the part Of one Of
the employees covered by the
bond.
Suit At Law No. S397S charges
acts of theft under the bond by
an employe by the name of -.
Therefore the issues raised are
separate and distinct one from
the other. The evidence neces-
sarily would be different to prove
what loss was suffered by the
plaintiff due to the acts Of one
and on the other hand the issue
raised by the acts Of theft Of the
other, it necessarily follows that
the evidence to prove his acts Of
dishonesty and theft would be
different from the evidence Of
the second defendant.

LEGAL NEWS--RECENT COURT RULNGN
Court Refuses To Abate Suit
On Basis of Prior Action

viOusIy in the State Of Vir-
ginia. Treating that suit as
though begun in the Federal
court to which It has been re-
moved and granting, rs defen-
dant argues, that Federal
courts Of different districts are
not foreign to each other, the
conclusive answer to his con.
tention nevertheless Is that the
subject matter Of the two suits
is not the same.
True, both Of them seek to
set aside the same release and
to enforce the same judgment;
but the lands sought to be
changed in one case are In
Virginia, while in the other, the
lands sought to be changed
are in West Virginia. AS above
held, the cancellation Of the
release Is only an incident to
the main purpose Of the suits,
viz, the collection Of the judg-
ment against Miller, and we
are not aware Of any legal OBJ
lection to concurrent suits for
that purpose in different juris-
dictiOns, whether Federal or
State, where the defendant has
property that can be reached.

Of schedule through the work Of
CCC youths, according to the

have to their credit.
Although the partnership is
but three years old, the Bowman
Thyson combine has enjoyed a
singularly quiet and busy sched-

Georgetown restorations soon car
ried the pair to the historic local
tiles in Fairfax county and near
by Maryland, and there are
many fine OLD homes there which
raise proud roofs over broad colo
nial verandaS and dormers which
were applied in the course of the
renovizing operations of the firm.

brokerage Of country estates and
desirable city properties and is
