LATE LOCALS.
<£> On February sth there were Gazetted a number of regulations in reference to motor traffic at railway level crossings. These regulations, Avhich were- published in the "Post" at the time, are fairly drastic and motorists would do wfell to study them. The presence of a police .officer in the vicinity of the Fcnton Street crossing today may possibly have some connection with these regulations. Stratford .friends will be glad to learn that Dr. A. Dillon Carbery was successful at the examination he recently sat' for in Dublin for the F.R.C.S., Ireland, degree. The performance is certainly a brilliant, one, for Dr. Carbery was only about five -months in preparing for an examination which usually takes from twelve to eighteen months' hard work. At Napier to-day (states a Press Association message), Judge Edwards heard argument by counsel in the Deck v.'Reid slander suit, for a new trial. The judge described the verdict (giving v Deck £l5O damages) as illogical arid inconsistent. He reserved decision on the question of non-suiting plaintiff, but said that if he did not grant that he would certainly order a new trial.
