THE COURTS.
SUIT OVER A GAME OF CARDS.
THE COURT ASKED TO DECIDE A DISPUTED POIN
WHICH AROsE Tn2EE YEARS AGO.

THE COURT ASKED TO DECIDE A DISPUTED POINT
WHICH AROSE THREE YEARS AGO.
An interesting suit which may to trial in the
Supreme Court months hence Is the result OF
a difference of opinion to the rules governing
game OF cards. The players were Robert \.
Chesebrough. president Of the Chesebrough Manu-
featuring Company Of this city which controls the
manufacture and sale of vaseline and other prod
ucts Of coal tar and j. r. Fisher. The game
played at the Surf Hotel. Fire Island. unlucky
day in September. 1859. Mr. Fisher the plaintiff in
the action at first agreed with Mr. Chesebrough to
refer to an authority whom both considered good
the question At issue and the ownership OF 800.
one-half OF which sum placed in the hands
of Captain David s 5. Sammis, the proprietor of
the hotel as stakeholder. by each of the men.
Captain Sammis is the who. three years
later became unpopular with his neghbors in
Babylon and Islp for selling the hotel property to
the State for quarantine purposes.
When the arbitrator gave his decision he did
not it Is said rule either afirmativey or negative
ly as to the principal point at issue, but declared
that In certain hypothetical circumstances MI Shese
the victory would BE- with Mr. Fisher. This YER
diet Mr.. Fisher thought made me result OF me me
wager draw. while Captain Sammis ana MI
Chesebrongh both looked upon it as ruling IN the
manufacturers favor
the stakeholder for the 800 which he had put up
The demand was refused. 1t was not until October
the Equitable Building. sent the summons in the
to Captain Samms. The captain through MS
attorneys. Coudert Brothers. made general denial
OF the plaintiffs allegations. and set up fur
ther defence that II the plaintiff had any cause OF
action the suit should have been brought within
three years.
Mr. Shaw replied that the suit not barred by the
Statute Of Limitations until six years after the
date OF the game.
William f. Randel. No IA Nassau-st., who was
substituted as attorney in the suit in place Of
Coudert Brothers some months ago, says that both
parties the suit appear to have overlooked the
fact that under Section 3H Of the Penal code they
both appear to be liable TO pay 10 the ONerseers
OF the Poor OF Suffolk County five times the amount
Of their wager a penalty. inasmuch more than
t25 changed hands within twenty four hours In the
quiet little game at the Surf Hotel What the game
was Mr. Randel could definitely say but he
strongly suspected that n was poker.
