HAHN, J.

The questions raised upon the petition to dismiss are of sufficient importance and involve questions of law and fact which should be heard and determined at the final hearing, and for that reason said petition is dismissed without prejudice to the right of respondent to raise said questions at the hearing on the merits.

There is a further allowance of $25 counsel fees and $5 witness fees to be paid on or before December 1st, 1930.
A decree may be prepared in accordance with the terms of this rescript.
