CLAIM AGAINST ALLEY. MAGISTRATE’S DECISION. By Telegraph—Press Association Wellington, Dec. 7. In the claim of the Canterbury i Wrestling Association against Tom Alley for £54 4/2 damages for alleged breach of contract in failing to meet McDougall at Christchurch on November 9, the Magistrate, Mr T. B. McNeil, decided in Alley’s favour. Alley admitted that there was a contract, but contended that his physical condition was such that it was impossible for him to fulfil the contract. He produced a medical certificate showing that he was suffering from bronchitis and influenza at the time. The Magistrate commented that he was bound to say that he thought Alley should have notified the Christchurch people earlier than the date of tho contest that he would not be appearing.
