COAL VEND JUDGMENT
SYDNEY, December 28. An appeal has been lodged against the Coal Vend judgment on behalf of W. T. Appleton, on the grounds that the judgment is erroneous, and that evidence was wrongly admitted, and that there was no evidence of any joint intent on the part of this defendant to do any of the alleged acts detrimental to the public. Also that the evidence failed to establish any intent to restrain or control trade to the detriment of the public, and that certain sections of the act have been impliedly repealed by the provisions of certain amending acts. December 29. As appeals are likely to be entered at Sydney in regard to all the defendants in the Coal Vend judgment, one case will probably bo treated as a tost.
