EXPERTS IN COURT.
A VARIATION IN VALUES. By Telegraph—Press Association. Auckland, Wednesday. "That is a glaring example of the value of expert evidence," remarked counsel in a case in the Magistrate's! Court to-day when one witness gave, the value of two rings in dispute as | about £4O, while another witness valued them at about £5 each. Another wit-, ness valued one of the rings at £7 10s, and the other at £6 15s. The Magistrate (Mr. Kettle) thought it would be interesting to have the testimony of other experts, so as to ascertain the true value of expert evidence. He added that in a case before liim recently an architect considered certain work should cost £5, while another architect put the cost of the same work at £SO. That was another example of different opinions held by experts.
