Head Matter:
In the Matter of One Hundred and Twenty-Seventh Street. In the Matter of James A. Deering.
George G. Hunger, for app’lt; Hem'y A. Powell, for resp’t.

Opinion:
Per Curiam.
The record upon which this appeal is heard shows beyond dispute that the relation of attorney and client between Deering and James Baird never existed ; and as that relation is the necessary foundation for an attorney's lien, it follows that the attorney .has no lien upon the fund. The order should be affirmed, with $10 costs and disbursements.
