He asked Meehan to diminish it if possible. The latter put a muffler on his gas en- gine for a couple of days, but couldn’t get the same power and took it off. The stone cutters operate on the east side of the lot near his property the witness testified. A cloth was erected to keep the stone chips and dust out of his yard, but the cloth tore and the wind blew the dust into his yard.

His wife is troubled with hay fever and the effect of the noises and odors is bad for her. sunday “Pantics” Destroyed.

Owing to the stoneyard, Schmidt said he is forced to keep the windows on that side of the house closed during the day. He tried to sell the property but nobody will buy, because of the | proximity of the stoneyard. | Cross examined by Judge Klett, the witness denied that he ever offered | the property for less than $6,000. | The reason he first offered to sell | was due to the fact that he learned Meehan was going to move to the lo- | cation. Schmidt denied aiding Mee- han to set up machinery in his shop or that he told Meehan hé would ra- | ther have him locate on the lot than see a six tenement block erected there. He admitted raising rents from $16 to $20, but said it was because he had improved the place by installing heating apparatus and other things. The casc was in progress at press time.

The witness was Captain i H. W. Goodall, president of the Pacific Navigation company, which operates | the steamers. Goodall brought in the name of Edward D. Robbins, general counsel of the New Haven and one | of the defendants, as having con- | ducted with him the negotiations by which the two steamers were trans- ferred. The transaction included the or- ganization of a new Metropolitan Steamship company of Maine, which took over in behalf of the New Ha- ven four freight boats which that line wanted, and of a Pacific com- | pany which was the intermediary ve- | hicle for a series of complicated fin- | anclal transactions, through which | sum of $250,000 was provided for the expenses of taking the two pass- | enger steamers around the Horn. | Goodall Started Negotiations, | The defense maintains that the New | Haven had no interest in what be- | came of the boats and it was brought | out on cross-examination that Goodall | initiated the negotiations. Goodall said that in his opinion the boats, ow- | ing to their type, could not pay on | the Atlantic coast.
