M.P., in his address for the plaintiffs, said the libels wero nesoeinted with the recent, proposal to form a combinatina of soap manufacturers, and were published in the Daily Mail" and "London Evening News" from day today during the last thres months of 1908. He read a letter from Lord Northclife, written on Oct. 18 of) last year, disclaiming any hostility to Messrs Lover, and declaring that in the discussion of the matter of the combine in the columns of his newspapers he intonded to be perfectly fair to all sides. On the very next day, counsel said, the first of the attacks on the plaintifik was made, and he i characterised the letter as a pieco of hypocrisy. Sir Edward Carson read ex- iracts froin articles in the defendants'] newspapers all of which, he said, reflected | on the character of the plaintifs. The trial was continued on July 18, when coun-

with a verdick for the plaintiffs of £50,000 damages and costs The case was practi cally decited by the ovidence of Mr Lever in the witness-box. At the opening of the Court Mr Rufus fanacs, for the defend- ants, stated that, in view of the impres 818sion made by that evidenes upon himself and his friends, aud, no doubt, upon the Court, it was impossible for his clients to continue their defonce upon the lines ou which it had bean drawn. He therefore withdrew the plea of justification and with it all imputations upon Mr Lever's honour and integrity, expressing at the same time the regret of his clituts for having been misled into making then, as well as thoir decision not to go on with the plea of fair comment. There was, therefore, no question to go to the jury sicept that of damages, and after consultation between the opposing counsel it was announced that the large sum of £50,000, being Mr Lerer's own estimate of damage in this and a minor action against the same parties, had been offered and accepted in settlement.
