Opinion

COXE, District Judge.

Assuming that evidence of prior similar losses may become admissible upon the trial —a matter for the trial judge to determine — the allegation of such losses is irrelevant and unnecessary to the cause of action pleaded. Retention of the allegation will prejudice the defendant, and it should be stricken. Best Foods v. General Mills, D.C.Del., 3 F.R.D. 459, 460-462; Contogeorge v. Spyrou, D.C.S.D.N.Y., 7 F.R.D. 223. Defendant’s motion to strike is granted.
