Head Matter:
HENRY W. WAGNER vs. MONUMENTAL BREWING CO.
Equity: pleading; allegations of hill must he sustained.
Where a bill in equity not only is not sustained, but is actually contradicted by the complainant’s proof, it should be dismissed.
A saloon property was leased under the condition that the Brewing Company owning it would furnish to the tenant beer at the lowest price charged to any other customer; a bill was filed by the saloon keeper for a discovery and an accounting, and a decree for such an amount as the plaintiff might be found to have paid in excess of the prices with which he should have been charged; the allegations of the bill were not sustained by the plaintiff’s testimony, and it was held that the bill should be dismissed.
