ISLAND FRUIT CASE.
(Per Press Association.) Wellington, December 7. In the Raratongan fruit case, it was agreed that the only point for the jury would be: What would be the amount of damage suffered by the plaintiff? The jury returned a verdict stating that the allowance would be 4s Gd per case, which was equal to £836 11s. After evidence had been given, the case was adjourned for argument, which is to be heard at some future date.
