THE T ESTATE.

a Contest in Chancery Over Its At.
tempted Sale.
Cornelius Sutton died at BULBS Ferry
ten years ago. leaving a water front and
other valuable real estate to his six sons,
one Of whom. Kingsland Sutton, was
made trustee. Kingsland Sutton was
negotiating for the sale of the real estate
when he died last summer. Washington
b. Williams of this city was then ap-
pointed trustee. The heirs desire to par
undertook to sell it. He received an
offer of 100000 from Cook & Perrin
merchants of New York. Lawyer George
L. Record made an offer of 500. 900 for
clients, whose identity has not been dis
closed. Trustee Williams and his assoc
late, Guy j.. Edwords. asked Chancellor
McGil today to confirm | the sale Of
& Perrin. Mr.. Record opposed the
confirmation. The bargain had been,
closed at a lower figure than he was pro-
pared to give. He offered 500, 900, aad
deposited 5000 as a guarantee OF good
faith. He was satisfied the property was
worth more thai $110, 900.
Ex- Chancellor Runyon for Cook &
Perrin said that IL the trustee had made
a sale In good faith, the purchaser had
rights with which the Court ought not to
interfere.
Mr.. Record said he had made au agree
ment with. the trustee to have another
opportunity to bid, and it did not seem
fair to sell the property for $4,000 when
he wa willing to give more. Such a
proceeding shocks the conscience. AL
though his client wanted only half of
the property, he was willing to raise
the price $4,000 for all of it. II thai
was not advance enough Mr.. Record
asked the Chancellor to say how much
would be enough, and give twenty-four
hours for the sale.
E~x-Chancellor Runyon said 1t was a
question how far the court would staDd
by q CONTRACT made by the agents of the
court. The purchaser had dealt with
a trustee who had acted with great
caution, and who had made a solemn bar
gain which gave a right to the deed.
The Chancellor laid the matter over
until This afternoon to give Mr.. Record a
chance to say how mucn he would give.
II the bid was such that the sale could
not be confirmed the matter would go
back into the discretion of the trustee.

City Athletic Clubs pool tourney on Sat
urday night. the first was between
Totfey vino has fifty to make and win and

The players were encouraged by a large
audience.
The game between Soper and E,alrchild,
