Judge Bookstaver Dismisses Della
Kesgan's Suit,
1t Is Barred by the Statute Of
Limitations.
she Wanted 100000 for Breach
OF Promise.

Judge Bookstaver, OF the Court of
Common Pleas to-day dismissed the
action which Della Keegan brought
through j. Baptiste Marshall to recover
100000 from Russell Sage for breach of
promise of marriage
The Judge says the action on the
plaintiffs own showing Is barred by the
statute OF limitations. He says 1t ap-
pears that the promise, as alleged. was
made twenty-three years ago, and was
to have been performed In a reasonable
time.
He says that one year has been held
to be a reasonable time. The action Is
barred six years from the time the cause
of the action would have accrued by
the lapse OF the reasonable time after
the alleged promise.
The Judge says that aside from this
lapse Of time the action would have ac-
crued Immediately when Sage married
another. He married on Nov. "a 1869,
subsequent to the alleged promise.
The Judge says that the reply put in
by the plaintiff to the plea of Sage that
the action Is barred, as was directed by
Judge Pryor, is sham and false.
She was Il sister OF Mary Mullerin, who
was the cook in the family OF Russell
Sage twenty-five years ago.
Della is a tall, raw-boned woman, not
at all beautiful. She brought this suit
through Lawyer Marshall last April. Mr..
Sage has been fighting 1t by demurrer
ever since.
Mr.. Marshall was attorney for Della
Keegan in a suit for damages for in
juries received by her on the Third ave-
nue. street railway. 1t was during that
litigation that she told him her story
| about Sage's intimacy with her.
She claimed that Sage was the father
of her child, which was born ana died
in Ireland. With the money obtained In
the damage suit she sued Sage.
Mr.. Sage charged Miss Keegan, in his
answer with being drunkard and of
unsound mind.
