Question of Costs, Speaking on the question of costs, Mr. McCallum said that in any event it was necessary for the defendants to bring the action in- to Court to ascertain the actual damages incurred when the writ was served. It then had relation to one car only..

The grantee of the bill of sale valued that asset at between $400 and $500. As the case proceeded. his Lordship came to the con- clusion that another car, covered by the schedule, should have been included in the writ, if it was in- tended to bring the damages up to $1,000. That was after the case had commenced, and after he (Mr. McCallum) had pointed it out, Consequently the plaintiff would be disentitled to costs in any event up to the time of the amendment.

His Lordship remarked that as a matter of fact costs in respect of a claim for $500 were the same as for $1,000..

Mr. Turner:-Yes,, my Lord.

No Additional 'Costs.

His Lordship: I don't think you will get any additional costs by reason of that.

Mr. McCallum:-They are en- tirely at your Lordship's discre tion. I may have been inclined to consent to jugment for a reason. able sum, but, $1,000 was put of the question.j

His Lordship: You might have paid the money into Court mightn't you? No, I will givo judgment- for the plaintiff with costs.

KOWLOON FRACAS SEQUEL

BUS DRIVER'S LOST TOOTH.

A. Alvares appeared before Mr. W. Schofield at the Kowloon Magistracy this morning on a charge of assaulting a motor-bus driver near the Central British School, Nathan Road, yesterday.

The defendant asked permission to lasue a. auramons of assault against the complainant.

In reply to his Worship, the driver said that he was pulled from his seat by the defendant and assaulted. It was then that he retaliated and struck the defen- dant, with the result that a fight ensued, during which the com plainant had a tooth knocked out,

His Worship said that this was a case where the two parties should be bound over and the more Injured party should receive com pensation,

The defendant was accordingly ordered to pay $5 amends to the complainant, and both parties were bound over in a personal bond of $50 to be of good be haviour for six months.
