[per press association^ COURT OF APPEAL. Wellington, March 18. The Appeal Court opened to-day. The first case taken was that of the Solicitor General versus Wallis. This was an application by the Solicitor-General to file farther affidavits in the case of a reserve vested in the Bishop of Wellington and others as trustees for the purpose of a Maori school. The Solicitor-General applied to file further documents showing objections by natives concerned to a decree made in the Supreme Court by the Chief Justice and Justice Edwards. The application was opposed, but the Court allowed it on the ground that the matter was one of public interest and that the question should be finally disposed of on all available evidence.
