INSURANCE MATTERS.

A suit has just been begun in the Superior Court
by John W Salter against the American National Life
and Trust Company Of New Haven. Conn.,. to recover
$4,000 o policy Of insurance issued the life of
Eliza d. Maynard, on the 23d of july 1870 The
plant states that the premiums were paid annually
by the insured to and including the year 1879 It
is then alleged that ON the 2lst Of October in that
year Ell Beard was by order Of the Supreme Court
duly appointed receiver Of the National Life Insur-
Company. and on the sth of December, 1873. he
transferred certain trusts to the defendant and the
latter accepted tho trusts, among which was this
policy. :, which was reissued BY the defcnd-
Supreme Court that ~' the premiums vere sne
all duly paid up to May 23 1876, and that Decem
ber 81. 1878. the defendant fraudulcnty and unlaw
fully notified the plaintiff that his interest in this
policy had been transferred to the National Capital
Life Insurance Company, Of Washington, d. c., and
rerAsentcd to him tina. this company had no labii-
ties whatever and had capital OF $lbo.o00 that
the defendant at their Office in New York the cash
premium then DUE but that the defendant refused to
receive it, and required the plaintiff to pay it to the
National Capital Life Insurance Company, Of Wash
ington. to whom he falsely and fraudulently pre-
tended the plaintiffs. interests had been trans
assent to the transfer. but offered to pay
it to the defendant. who declined to
March. 1877 while this policy was in full force ana
effect. whereupon tho plaintiff gave the defendant
notice of her death. and applied for blanks with
which to prepare formal notice, proof and evidence
Of death Of the insured and proof of the Just claim
the plaintiff under this policy. butt that defendant
refused to furnish the blanks, whereupon the
plaintiff caused due notice to be served on the de-
lendant the 17th Of April 1877. together with salts
factory proof OF the death Of Eliza b. Maynard and
OF the just claim OF the plaintiff. The action Is
brought by Messrs Weeks Foster on behalf of the
plaintiff, and the defence is q general denial.
In the Common Pleas clerk Office there filed
yesterday fortysx Judgments for dchcensies in fore
closure suits brougat by the New York Life In
surance Company against various defendants. These
Judgments aggregate nearly sl50,OOe. and vary in
their amounts from $35 OF mp to $S,7T2 96.

THE COURTS.
Important Decision Touch
ing Referees Oaths.
INSURANCE LITIGATIONS.
A Quaint illustration OF the Ver-
bosity OF the Law.

An important decision touching tho duties Of
referees has just been decided by the Common Pleas,
General Term. The action is one brought by Emile
Aason against Benjamin L. Luddington to recover
damages for the alleged conversion Of gas stocks. In
due course of time the sent to referee who
'eported In favor Of the plaintiff for $3,973 Oh. Il
seems that the defendant. who had taken part In the
trial after the referee had prepared his report and the
costs had been taxed. discovered that the referee
had not been sworn, as appears to be required
by the provisions of the new Code He accordingly
applied for an order to show cause why the report
should not be set aside for irreguarty This motion
camc on to be heard before Judge Larremore then
holding Common Pleas Special Term. who decided
in favor of the plaintiff denying the motion to set
aside the report From this order of Judge Larre-
more an appeal was taken to the General Term.
The plaintiff contends that under section 16l6 Of the
new Code it is necessary that there should be an
erees minutes. Judge Van Hoesen who writes the
opinion of the General Term, goes into an
elaborate discussion Of the questions involved and
recites the provisions Of the Revised Statutes and
shows how far they have been changed by tho
new Code. He holds that the failure of
the referee to be sworn Is . irregulsrity. and
not jurisdictional defect The primary object Of
that provision he thinks, Is to protect infants and
absentees For this class of the oath cannot
be dispensed with, but when party of full age Is
present in person represented by counsel. .what
he asks, sis there why he or his legal adviser
should not ask the referec to be sworn? What prin
riple of ethics Of law requires that defendant
his counsel after participating day after day in long
contested trial without troubling themselves to in
qire whether the referee has been sworn should be
permitted, when they ascerained that the report is
against thc to spring objection that the required
oath has not been taken! Ought party thus to be
allowed tospeculate the chances of decision in
his favor?" In conclusion. Judge Van Hoesen holds
that there is nothing i'll the section interfering with
the old law of waiver, and that there still may be
waiver OF the referees oath implication He there

Horrible Tragedy.

James johnson, aged thirty four, had an
alteration with q woman, supposed to be
his sister-in-law, Mrs. johnson, at his home,
in the rear of 1876 Orchard street, New York,
recently. The neighbors heard the quarrel
and two pistol shots fired, when the police
were called in. The woman was found on
the floor dead, with her throat cut and her
forehead smashed, and sixteen stab wounds
on her body. johnson lay near with his
throat cut from ear to ear, and two pistol
shot wounds in his abdomen. The floor was
a pool of blood, in the midst of which were
a revolver, razor, shoemaker's knife, and
an iron stove hook-a massive blunt instru-
ment. The nan undoubtedly killed the
woman and then himself. Mrs. johnson
was found to have been pregnant, and eight
of the stab wounds seemed to have been
aimed at the unborn child. She did not
live with her supposed brother-in-law, but
came every day to cook for him. The bodies
were taken to the Morgue.
Mrs. johnson was sometimes accompanied
by her two children when going to cook, and
the police are now looking for the children.
At late hour at night, c. Missback, of the
Empire City Copying Company, TAG Broad
way, called at the police station, and gave
the following history of the parties to the
tragedy:
flames w. johnson was formerly q
wealthy diamond broker of Chicago, and
worth from $250,00O to 100000. Three
years ago he failed and came to New York
where he had just got started again wher
$4,000 worth of diamonds were stolen from
him, which used him up. He knew the
murdered woman to be Mrs. Dunnan, who
has divorced husband in Chicago, where
she first met j ohnson, who had been intimat,
with her before he lost his property"
