Judge Lavell stated that _he was satisfied the accident occurred on the north-east corner of the intersection as stated by 'the defendant and his witnesses, and that Teepel had cut the corner. - The judge stated that as far as Téepel having the right away {there was nothing to the claim, as according to the new act there was no such thing as the man on your right having the right away.

Cunningham acted for the defendant, and Rigney & Hickey pre- sented the case for the plaintiff. i | CITY HALL FOR DANCES. Property Committee to Ask For An Increase in Rental.
