The defendant Imhaeuser, being liable for each one of the amounts decreed inthe,one suit, is not in a position to raise the objection of multifariousness, as he is in no worse position by having only one suit against him than if there were three. Imhaeuser has no concern with the matters referred to in the third ground of demurrer. As Imhaeuser has appeared generally in the suit, he has waived his right to object that he is not named as a defendant in the prayer for Bubpama, and he has no ooncern with the naming of others in such prayer. The demurrer is overruled, with leave to the defendant Imhaeuser to answer in 30 days, on payment of the plaintiff's costs on the demurrer, to be taxed.
