Alleged It Was a Forgery,

The case Of Daniel r. Watkins and
others against Benjamin Hughes as
argued before Judge Gunster in cham
bers yesterday morning.
1t is an equity suit in which the heirs
of Thomas e. Watkins are suing
Hughes to recover one-half the prori IS
in mining scheme in which both were
interested.
The plaintiff by his lawyer, c. J..
Hawley, in his bill alleges that the
Delaware, Lackawanna and Western
company leased to Mr.. Hughes the
Diamond vein OF coal in 1887 and that
he in turn made an assignment of one
half interest in the mine to Thomas
Watkins and that up to the time tine
latter died in 1889 that there were no
profits paid him.
Major Warren in the argument for
the defense denounced the assignment
as forgery and claimed that the only
agreement entered into between the
two parties was an arrangement
whereby Mr.. Watkins was to receive
one half of the profits II he would
supervise the work Of mining.
Mr.. Hawley in reply denied the al
legations of forgery and stated that
the assignment was legitlmately made.

The Judge Must Figure.

Attorneys John p. Kelly and w. s.
Hulslander on the one side and George
NJ. Watson and Thomas p. Duffy on
the other, have submitted a knottv
mathematical problem to Judge Gun
ster to unravel. 1t comes up in n
line fence dispute in equity court, in
which Ellen c. Kelly is plaintiff and
James f. Donnelly defendant.
The plaintiff owns a lot on Madison
avenue adjoining the defendants prop
erty. Ten years ago they erected a
division fence on the line, each con-
trbuting towards the expense. The
fence was erected on the line where
fence formerly stood, the pos S
being on the Kelly side and the boards
on the Donnelly side and the Kelly
house was utilized as a fence, the
boards joining it, thereby saving the
expense of a fence for distance of
about thirty feet.
Mrs. Kelly removed the old house
which was part of the fence and erect
ed a new house. Mr.. Donnelly there
upon undertook to fill the gap in the
fence by erecting a fence to C c)nnect
with the fence on the line in the front
and the rear. The posts of the old
fence were on the Kelly side of the
lot, but she objects to the posts for the
new portion being put on her side Of
the line.
Each must contribute a share tow
ards the fence. The question is does
not Donelly's one inch OF land for a
distance of thirty feet amount to more
than that covered by the posts on
Kelly's land.
