TAXI WAR.
A MATTER OF COLOUR
MAN'S CONTEMPT OF COURT
VBy Telegraph.—Press Association.) WELLINGTON, Nov. 4.
Another phase of the duel between the Black and White Cabs Company and other car owners, accused of imitating the Company's colours, was before the Supreme Court when, for the third time, Edward Stanford appeared this time to answer the charge of contempt of court in not complying with an order to paint his cab differently. Mr. Justice Macgregor committed him to prison for two months, but suspended sentence for a month, to give the accused another chance. Counsel for the Company agreed to -this course, if the cabs were repainted : and the costs paid within that time.
