STURGES- FARWELL LITIGA
TiON.
final Decision Rendered by Judge
THEY In the Celebrated
Case.

Chicago, June 2l.-Judge TuleY
this aft6rnoon read his opinion in
the Starges-Fsrewell litigation. Ii
is a finding for SIS, 900 in the Slit
against j. Y. and G. B. FarweII
and Abner Taylor on the Kenslng
ton contracts, to be paid in ninety
days with 5 per cent interest; find
ing for Wm. Stiirges of S11l, 800,
to be credited on a note for $40,
900 made in July, 1889, aud due
tile syndieate:
Judgement is also entered in ia
vor OF j. V. FarweIl for use of the
syndicate against VIM. Siurgrs for
S2S,5O4, payable in ninety days.
In the Marquette Contract, whels
$is,U00 was deposited, the court
gives j. V. Fsrwell $4,000 and
the balance OF $4,000 to Mrs.
srtirges. The $4,000 ordered
paid to Mre: Stnrgts is on the capi
tol contrstt, which vas the rusin
natter Of tie litigation. The court
holds that willie Mr.. Sturges was
no, regularly eitiployed, yet his ser
vices were adopted by the company
and must be paid for.
The court oserrtiled the conten
lion tina. Mr.. Sturgss' services are
of no value, and holds that he did
good work for the company. The
litigation. which is ended by this
final arbitration, has extended over
a long series of years, and involv, d
a claim for $4,000, 900 for Service
rendered by VIM. Sturg"s in pro
noting the Texas capitol schernr.
The capitol was to have been built
at cost OF sl,5OO,OOO by John
V. F rwell Of Chicago; his brother,
ex United States Senator Charles
B. Farwell and Congressman Alb
ner Taylor. They were to receive
from the state of Texas 100000
acres of Texas land, stocked with
100000 head of cattle. fhe build
ing cost more than was expected,
and TO obtain funds Sturges al
tempted to interest foreign capital
sts, being promised, he claims, 40
per cent of all profits over $4,000,
300. The dispute was over the
value of his SERVICES. Mr. Sturges
il now in saniiarium, his mind
having failed during the present
nearing.

When asked the necessity Of having a
