APPEAL COURT.
I'ei Press Association. Wellington, August 5. In the Te Akau Block case, the Appeal Court gave judgment that tlxo Native Appellate Court had jurisdiction to decide the case in the way they had, in which what ia known as a Maori customary title was involved, also that the Supreme Court had power, notwithstanding the Act of 1905, to prohibit the Native Appellate Court on tho ground of bias or interest of its judges, but that plaintiff's statement of claim disclosed 110 real bias or interest on the part of Judge Browne. The Court thought it might have been wise on that Judge's part not to adjudicate in the case, but there was nothing to ►how he had not faithfully performed his duly, 'flic motion was therefore dismissed with costs on the lushest scale.
