Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
We think that the complaint states the cause of action with sufficient particularity, and that there is nothing in the papers to show that a bill of particulars is necessary to protect the rights of the defendant.
The order appealed from should be reversed, with $10 costs and disbursements, and the motion denied, with $10 costs.
