Mr. Slade-1 want the Crown lease, Mr. Pollock-My friend is jumping. There ii no Crown'lease. "Counsel proceeded to state that it was,lawful for the Governor to carry out the work.

10. The defendant will submit at the trial that the statement of claim shows no cause of action or ground of equitable relief to the plain tiff and does not sustain a claim for the sellel prijed for or any part thereof.

Mr. Slade moved that the action be dismissed on the groan 1 that the action was brought by Sir Frederick Lugard, the Governor, for and on behalf of the Government of Hongkong. Ua. der thai title, he said the plaintiff had no right of action. Taking the Governor as an in- dividual the stateme it'ol claim does not reduce' his title of office.

Maybe there wars`litte; boli wasTM not to be found on the fire of the pleadings, There was no Ordinance in the Colony which gave the Governor of Hongkong the right of action. He was not a corporation, and there. fore had no right of action. In actions against the Government, as provided in the Code, they should be bought against the Auorney- General. No correlative authority was given the Attorney-General to act for the Governor, and co power wat given a Governor to sue so bebaf of previous Gave not
