Mur- phy and Walter W. Lang over the alleg- ed unlawful cuttinz. of wood from the ty reservoir watersheds. The memorandum by Judge Banks is as follows: In sustaining the demurrer to the orig- inal complaint Judge Wolfe ruled held that “in makinz the contract with the defendant Murphy the Board of Wa- ter Commissioners was acting within its legitimate powers.” The plaintiff in its brief says that the second count of the amended complaint alleges an ultra vires.act of the board of water commissioners and re-argues the question decided by Judge Wolfe. “Parties cannot be permitted to waste the time of the court by the repetition in new pléadings of claims which have been set up in the record and overruled at an earlier stage of the proceedings. “The motion to strike out paragraphs 2,3, 4,9 and 10 of the second count is granted for the reason that said para- graphs allege a cause of action already held insufficient upon demurrer. For the same reason the demurrer of the defendant Patrick F. Bray to the substituted complaint is sustained.
