FINNIMORU LEE V. THli EIJUITAKLH In subanck Association- ob New Zealand.— CHvi>"( £500, upon a policy of insurance. Mr Thos. Cotter (instructed by Mr M;>c kocknlo) appeared for tho plaintiff, and Mr Thco. Cooper appeared fur tha dofendnnt. ITinnimoie Leo deposed : About a fortnight or threo weeks boforo the fire ho took a rough estimate of bis Btook, and found it to be worth about £825. On tho morning of the firo ho gave permission to porsons from tho Insurance oiliee to remove cortain goods which ho had not seen ainco, so that, aa far ac ho wfta concerned, tho lO3S was a total one. Ho sent in a proof of loss (pro duced), and tho Company Hicn a?ked him for particulars. They wanted him to get receipts for town purchase.-?, but ho was iin ablo to got them, as ha also did a cjsli business. They then asked him to bring down hia English invoices, which he <Ud. Ho had produced to tho Company all tho papers ho could for tho purpose of giving them tho information they desired. They had, however, paid him nothing.— Cross examined by Mr Cooper : Beforo arriving in Auckland, ho had boen in business in Chriatchurch, and had gono homo to England from there. It was true that for his original importation of good* ho paid £-157, which included £6(i for freight. Hs could give no further information tvs to what ho paid for Customs duties, etc. For tho second lot of cpod3 ho paid £101, inclusive of freight. l'rom tho time ho opoued business in Juno, 1884, until the firo, hfs sales averaged about £6 per week, and he was buying all the lime. Ho bought £103 worth of glass from a man whose name lie did not know, imd jviid for it in eaah. Tho receipt had been burnt in the lire. 110 had not told tho ogcitG of tho Insurance Company of this purchase Mr Hauchnrd promised an ac count of tho goods he had bought from him, and subsequently .Hanchard told him £.*] wim all ho had ever laid out with him Witness said, "Oh, that bo d for a yarn," and. ho then told lTaachaivi that ho Was tho worst white man he had over mot, bosides caving that ho did not care a d foi him.— Oliver Nicholson, solicitor, and managing clerk for Mr Mackochnic, deposed that ho prepared the proof of claim (produced) under instructions from Mr Lee. The In eurarico Company thon n«kcd for a detailed etatoment of the p;ooda destroyed, and wit ness prepared and forwarded to I hem copies of the two English invoices which Mr leo had. The discounts wero omitted. Ho and Mr Loo had several interviews with tbo manager of tho Company (Mr Williams) at tho Company's office, ami iv consequence of requests omdo thereat, tho lnnnager Was furniahod with all particulars that woro obtainable. On July 'ZGth, tho manager told him ho had forwarded all those particu lars to Dunodio, and that in duo course tho Company would lot him know how much they would pay. On September 14th tho Inspector of tho otlico Arrived, and proposed ttio reference of tho matter to arbitration, which was refused by Leo. Witness, a fow days afterwards, threatened legal proceed ings, and tho Inspector thon stated lhit tbo Company had gone very oaro fnlly into tho accounts, that tlioy wore satisfied plaintiff had not euetained any thing near tho lots ho represented to have boen lost, and that in tho evont of legal proceedings they would pay £200 into Court to guard themselves against costs. — The receipts produced for Leo's local pur chases represented a total vuluo of £137. — John Stewart Milne, loeeeo of tho Hobson Hotol, romembered the lire on Mr Lee's premises in July. Ho had b«ra very oitcn in Mr Leu's shop, and was last thoro on the afternoon bofoio tho liro. Ho noticed then that there wa? a large stock in, and hardly room to move about. He had noticed frotn the very firet that Loo's stock wus always kept full. Ho ap pearod to dc a very steady ready cash busi- PO3S. When ho arrived at tho tiro tho Barnes woro raging at tho rear of Mr Lee'a and tho Auckland l>aiiy Company's promisee and Lee had very little titno to get out.— Hra Eurily Holme*?, hotolkocper, of Manu rewa, deposed that previous] to the !iro sho had eoveral times examined plaintiffs stock, and finally ollorod him £GOOfor it, which he declined. Sho valued tho stock at £000. — Louis Bullet deposed that ho had been 10 months in plaintiff's employ, and that his etock wa3 always lull. Mr Leo could merely write his own name and do'some figuring. Ho chocked the English invoice produced, and saw that alt tho goods enuineratod upon it wero delivered. Uo saw also tho arrival of tho goods men iionod in the second invoice Mr Leo was always buying goods, and the place was getting more "; cramme-1" with goods every day for trade was unutually dull. The aver age takings were from £o to £6 por week. The beat part of the good stock ■ that was there when he went was there Also when he left. The goods that Mr Leo was continually buying in town wero almost nil cheap lines. Ho valued tho _stock ht the time of the fire at about £750 — Edward Bullot (carpenter and builder), Mrs Mary Milao (wife of John Stewart Milne), James Clark (milk-dealer), Henry Kiiylor (dairyman), Wilson William Bcalo, Philip Walters (tailor), Wm. James Munday (architect and agent), and Wm. Metcalfo (genorol dealer) gavo evidenco as to thg fulness of tho stock contained in plaintiff's premises prior to tho firo.—Mr Coopor moved for a nonsuit on the ground that there was no evidence that Clauso 6 of tho conditions had been fulfilled. ThißCondition required that a person insured whose pro porty was destroyed by firo shall give notice to tho Company's oflico at Dunedin or to an authorised agent in the locality, and within 15 days shall deliver an ac count, verified by a tolemn declaration, together with such bookß and vouchers as may bo required, and tinle.-s such ac counts aro reudorcd within the timo specified no part of eueh loss shall bo payable. He contended that the informa tion nnd particulars given by tho plain tiff and Mr Nicholson, and the proof of loes, woro not sufficient. He quoted a case from the Kevv . South Wales law reports in support of hia contention.— Mr Cotter replied to the nonsuit pomt raised by Mr Cooper, and His Honor re°erved the point. Mr Coopor thon opened the case for tho defence to tho jury, and called Arthur Merritt Ber.le, who deposed that in July last he was connected with the defendant company. On tho afternoon after the fire occurred ho saw Mr Lee, and in conscquenco of the interview he removed the debria and falvago -everything that was worth removing"- to a store in Queen street. Subsequently made a examination and list of tho goode. Witness could not speak to their value. They only removed tho salvage. In cross-examination witness said the galvage was removed the samo after noon before fivo o'clock, but ho could not tell how much was taken away. Ho did not supervise tho removal, and only saw it in the storo in Queen- Etreet next morning. Mr Lewis did not see it until about a weak afterwards. —Gabriel Lewis, auctioneer and commission avonr, deposed that for many years he had hid a good deal to do with crockery, etc. He inado an examination in July of cortain etock in John Itsid'a etoro, in Queenetreof, and made a list of the articles (hat pro duced). The articles wero damaged by ho and water, and tho value he sot opi.o«to them was their uninjured value, *•"* •"• and aa salvago tboy might fetch *~°- After counsel had addressed the jury H s Honor summed up, and tho jury retired. In ten minutes thuy returned with « verdict to the effect that they found that at the ■ time of the firo there was more property in the premises than tho amount of the insur ance.—Mr Cooper applied to have vie ar o u meuta taken at" the firet Bitting *»»"«•- The Court then adjourned till 10 o clock this morning.

THIS DAY.

(Before His Honor Mr Juetice Ward,) | Hokian-ga Sawmill Go. and Wijrw£ ' DATORS V. JOUN He.VBY DAYTON AND SIX Others.-Action for recovery of a cer taio deed.-On the application of Mr Button, this matter was allowed to staad . over until February 3. ~« T> John Logan Campbell v. Shkkmas D. Cahn.-Claim, £150-Mr O. B. B^ n/P; paaredfor tho Dlainti£F, »"d, Messr! C> H«ffrß- ' wood and Jackson Palmer for dofcß dant. Mr Button read tbo, f a. °™ the ■ of claim and defence, and rtated that the action was baaod upon an agreement be , tween Cahn and Bennett (lessee of the Clarendon Hole:), by which Cabn ocknow lodged that ho was indebted to B8??0^ l" the Bum of £150, and authorised Mr 1« wood to pay Bennett on h«I order ■ oj an alleged awfenment from Bennett 'o Brown and Campbell, which aeslSn^ th bore the following endo T r^ mehtT u thori=a reference to the above, 1*"?* ve^e ' Meesra Brown aud Campbell to receive toe sum thai has been endorsed on the.

.notion had boon received, alleged that Cahn , waa a bankrupt and that he had committed an act of bankruptcy before tho making of the agreement.— Mr Forwood expressed surprise that tho plaintiff's solicitor should havo taken the 1 unusual couree of subpienaiog him as do feudants legal advieer. It placed him in a curioua position, for all the information he was desirod to give could have been ob tained eaeily by private application to him self. The defendant had not absconded. He was a bookmaker, and in pursuit of his call ing, had simply loft Auckland in order to attend Southern race meetinga, and would be back by tho noxt steamer, or the ono nfler that.—Mr Button waa glad to hoar of tha expected return of the defendant, as he had given up all hope of seeing him agaio. Aa regarded tho balanco of Mr Fonvood's ttltemont, ho felt it due to himself to say that the eubpa-aa had boon istued a con siderable time before it was eervel, Mr Forwood'a presence was denied both at his ofiice and his home. At length Mr Claries Buddie on Friday last left tho eubperna at Mr Forwcoi's residence duly addressed, and tho following day Mr Norwood's son brought it back and loft it at Whitaker, Itueeell, and Buddies, saying, " Hero is the subp-rno that was loft for mo." It was not left for him, howover, but for hia father. Mr Button then called upon Mr For wood for a statement of the moneys that he had received en defendant's behalf.— Mr EVwoud asked Hio Honor whether ho was obliged to make such a statement. Any moneys coming to tho defendant through hiiu, or ahy transactions between his clietit and himself, hod arisen in hia Capacity a 1! solicitor, and not tnorol.y at torney for tbo defendant. His client wa* not thero to con-iont to any statement on hie port, ttud theroforo ho would only raako it Under llis Honor's direction.—His Honor thought tho memo, of assignment was suf ficient to justify tho etatomonr, and to dy away with the existence uf any privilege.— Mr Forwood thon made tile following state ment :—"Tho position was this. 1 prepared powor of attornoy about January last from Cahn and two gentlemen in New York. That waa forwarded abn K with foreign bills for a portion of the money. Tho bills were dishonouied. After nn interval ot some months—about six - a draft on London waa sent for a portion of the money. Tho wholo o^f the money expected has not yet come. Cahn in tho menntimo having counted upon the arrival of this money, obtained accom modation to pay these people. Amongst others, ho obtained money from Mr .John Abbott, who had previously dif counted bills fcr Bennett given him (Bennott) by Cahn, atd discounted on my assurance that I would see them paid. Tho draft on Lon don, when it arrived, I got discounted alto* ftixl after that, with Unhn'a authority, I paid Abbott his full claim, somo £110. 1 paid th 0 otlior bills for loans that had been raiaud, Kn( ) deduct ins: my own costs, I paid tho balanco over to tho defendant." — Mr Forwood after a panto supplemented Uio above etatament by saying : " I took no notice of tho notices served upon him, as I considered they conveyed a personal inault."—Mr Button submitted that ho had now Droved all that was necessary to prove alh'nrialively undor tho defence —Mr For wood contor.dod that noitlior on tho pload inga nor by tho ovidenco had hia learned friend showod any assignment at all. Ho alao contended that this wa3 a mere choico in action, nud that in order to intiko it available for tbo plaintiff as fcgainst tho maker, thero must havo been au assign meut by dcod, or such assignment ta to umko a now cause of action. In order to constitute a bill of oschango, it waa liecpssary that tho money rcprosouted by it should bo paid unconditionally, nnd should not bo contingent upon payment out of any particular fund, by any par ticular person, or at any particular timo. It should be an unconditional ordor to pay on demand or at any time. Yot tho mousy in question was mado payablo out of a fund which might novor arise. It was not, theroforo, a bill of exchange—it was moroly an agreement. Tholcnrned gentleman quo tod authorities in support of hie argument,— Mr Button, in reply, argued that there was ampin ovidenco of sufficient notice in this case. With regard to tho document itself, ho confossed that it was a kind of horroapb rodito document. It ectmed to comply with tho conditions laid down in the Bill.-* of Exchange Act of 1363, but at any rato thoy did not call it a bill of eschaogo — moroly nn agreement or authority to pay with an indication for payment out of a particular fund. By Frico V. Pannj stor (;W 1> liiv. 660) au ordor to pay waa considered sullleiunt. Mr Button also quoted Hcslop v, Bi»i»—■• '• ?."''"•{"' 'l T-1O to Bhow mat tho ordor and dispositions clauso of the Bankruptcy Act would not apply uuloss an order had baen previously obtained from tho Court imder that clause. —Ilia Honor was of opinion that theplaintiil was entitled to succoed on the authority of i'rico v. Baumster, which appeared to govern it. On the other hand, as far as tho bankruptcy was concerned, the civ<o stated by M* Button to show that boforo bankruptcy iuterveno! thero must bo an order under tho Order and Dispositions Clause, decided that tpoint. After con'erenco botwoen tho learned counsel. Mr Button said they bad agreed to tako a verdict for £50. - Judgment for plain tiff accordingly, with costs upon the lower scale. ..

Pitt-street Wesleyan Church.

A tea and pubiic meeting waa hold last ovoning in celebration of tho recent addi tions to the church and Sunday eohool. Tho ladies were early at thoir post, and at G o'clock all was in roadi ne»s ■to recolro the visitors. There ■>yu3 a pleasing feature in tho assembly, viz., that tho Conforenco ministers and lay representatives root a number of old and familiar friouds whom they had known in Auckland many yoara ago. Tho attendanco at tea was very good, but tho ladiea had provided super abundance. After tha tables had been vacated, the people made their way around tho new building, and carefully inspected tho various class-rooms. At about half-past Eevou tho public meeting was commenced in the church, being pre sided over by tho Rev. W. 0. Olivor. After the opening devotional exercises, tho President called upon Mr Thomas Buddie to give a short account of tho reoont im provements which had taken placo. Ho referred to tho efforts of tho trustoes for many yeara pasttogetthemuch needed work accomplished ) and at last by tho effoits of tho peopleandthroughaßmall legacy of 1700 which was given to the church.tho trustees saw their way cloar to begin in right earnest, and the woik was nOH" finished. Mr James Buttlo, troasurer, mado the following statement of finances : — Amount of contract, £1,957 ; sundries of alt sorts, including architect's fee —E.ly XII 3, £393: £'2,380 ; "amount already paid, £1,0-10 ; etill topiy, £440. Towards tho total cost of £2,350 wo had cash in hand to start with, say £600; contributions promisod, £550, of which £21)7 are paid, leaving still to collect £253; amount to bo borrowed, £1,250; £2,400. Mr Bultlo referred to the energy Of t'.le young men of tho Bible class) who had furnished their own room free of cost to tho trustees; al«o to tho genorosity of Mr T. Cooke, who had presented tho furniture of tha ministers vestry as his donation towards tho undertaking. Mr Buttlo announced that, in nddition to delinito promisos ulroady made, n considerable numbor of friends had expressed their donro to contribute, but had not yet namod tho amounts. Tho K-iv. J. Crump gavo a practical ad dro?3 on tho proper idea of church oxtension In its highest sense. Roy. Mr Loo, in a humorous speech, addrossod tho audience on tho relation of tho pew to tho pulpit. The pew expected .1 superb and almost per fect preacher, and tho pulpit had a right to expect eomowhat from tho po'.v. The rov. gentleman g.ivo somo capital hints, which, if acted upon, would undoubtedly mend a great deal of tho grumblingin tho churches of tho prosont day. Tho Key. W. Morley waa next palled, nnd had certainly tho most popular topic of tho evening, viz., " Kominiscences of Old High streot People aud Mothodiem." Ilo.in a touching manner, rbfbrrbd to the long list of sacred names of past yoara, and of Borne yet living, who wore active agonts and workora in the early days of Methodism in Auckland, and wound up by urging that if tho pant of Mothodu-m in Auckland was glorious, tho future ought to bo still more so. Tho Hoy \V, J. Williams was very excellent and eloquent also in hid rtllectioiu on the past and what ho had teen in tho early days of hia ministry in Auckland. Ho referred to tho Hoy. Father Hobbs and to Mro Wm. Whito, names that are eaorod nnd kept greon in the hearts and memories ol thousands of tho Methodist pcoplo of Auckland. The meeting concluded in tho usual way, and was epokeu about bh a most iulori sting and pleusmabie timo to till who were present.
