Judgment was delivered by tho full Court at Wellington yesterday in a case of much importance to sharebrokers. Gaulter, Dykes and Co. v. Bogg. This was a claim by the sharebrokers for moneys paid by them for the mircha.se of mining shares on behalf of respondent. The defence set, up was that as the brokers had not complied with the requirements of section 133 of the Stamp Duties Act 1908 as to the sending of duly stamped contract notes the. contracts entered into were iilegnl and the sharebrokers could not recover. The Court consisted of Sir Robert Stout, Chief Justice, and Justices Edwards, Cooper and Chapman. The Chief Justice and Mr Justice Edwards wore of opiuion that the provisions of the Stamp Duties Act rendered contracts, unless-evidenced by stamped contract notes as required by Section 133, illegal and that the defence was good and the shareholders couldnet recover even when they had resold the shares at their cliont's request, and the client had, therefore, obtained all the benefit lie could under the contract. Mr Justice Cooper agreed that the appeal should be, dismissed, but based his judgment on the opinion that the action was proceeding within the meaning of Section 139 and the appellants had not complied with the proviso to that section. Mr Justice Chapman aproed with Mr Justice Cooper on this point but al."*> agreed that the illegality of the contract prevented the brokers recovering. The appeal was dismissed with £2O costs.

A claim for damages was heard by Mr V. G. Day, S.M., at the Magistrate's Court at Ashburton yesterday, Jamos Ernest Byrne (Mr Fraser) suing J. J. Lowis (Mr Wilding) for £124 19s. The plaintiff's case was that he and a companion hired a horse, trap and harness from defendant, who was a livery stable keeper, to drive to the Rangitata races. While on the way they pulled up at a sign-post, and on starting again the breast-plate of the harness snapped. The horse became fractious, and tho trap was overturned. Plaintiff sustained a compound fracture of one of his legs. It was alleged that the harness was rotten and defective, and should net have been let out. The defence set up by Mr Wilding was that the accident could not have happened as described. Tho harness was purchased in 1907, and was the best make of harness. The harness must have been broken as the result of a very sudden jerk. Evidence was given to the effect that the harness had been sound. His Worship said that he would rcr-.orvc his decision. All tho officers and men of tho Royal Navy who arrived in the Terra Nova yesterday have been gazetted tc H.M.S. President. One of the officers explained to a reporter yesterday thai tho President is an old hulk which lies in the West India Dock, London. It is used for stores and other purposes of a very peaceable nature, but it has on its books more men than will be found on any first-class battleship. Tha vessel represents a little fiction in which the Admiralty indulges. Whoa men of the Royal Navy are engaged on special service, such as Captain Scott's expedition, it is desired to keep them on full pay. In that case they must be on the books of some- of tho Navy vessels. They cannot bo placed on the books of any of the vessels in actrvs use, as each vessel must carry its full complement with it. Tho President is therefore brought into requisition, and through it a formality in the Royal Navy is maintained, while inconvenience is not caused to officers and men. Very few of those who are on H.M.S. President's books have over seen the vessel. In this respect the members of the Royal Navy on the Terra Nova are an exception, as they passed by the President when they wertf leaving London.
