'CASH REGISTER ' TRIAL POSTPONED Two Sides Agree on Change of Judge; Suit Against Connolly for Cash « Register Predecessor Buying | Justice of the Peace Shock disqualified himself to hear th* suit of the National ' Cash' Register Co. against Mrs. Porter K. Mickey and ! James Connolly, after Seth Rowda- j baugh, attorney for the defendant, ! James Connolly, had filed an affi- I davit stating that Connolly could not have a fai,r and, impartial trial before Justice Shock, due to bias and prejudice of the judge against the defendant. The reason advanced by Rowdabaugh for the change of judge was that he wanted the case tried before a lawyer as there would be several points of law brought up during the trial. Warren T. Colwell, attorney for the plaintiff and Rowdabaugh finally agreed that the case would be tried before George Xanders after Shock had agreed to disqualify himself. The agreement was reached only after the cash regfeter, which figures in the case, was delivered to Colwell's office at his demand. i A few days ago Colwell had issued ( from Shock's court a writ of replevin for the cash register but for some reason the constable, Fie Ide n Sharp, after serving the writ did ( not obtain the cash register or a bond for the same, but left it in the care , of Connolly. The suit was brought by the Cash Register Company for possession of a cash register which they claim ! that Connolly is holding unlawfully. 1 They claim that the register was < purchased by Mrs. Mickey and that i there remains an unpaid balance i of S2O. After Porter Mickey was removed from business at the Grand Hotel by , Rowdabaugh, James Connolly took ] possession of the hotel and restaur- ! ant—also the cash register. , It was discovered that George Xanders was out of town, after the two attorneys agreed to try the ( case before him, so the cm* will be , heard in a few days if Xanders < agrees to hear the case after he returns to Syracuse.
