ONE JUSTICE
Constitutes the Appellate Court
for Certain Purposes.

According to the opinion handed DOWN
today in the case OF the First National
Bank of Hopkinton VS.. William H
Greene, executor. one justice constitutes
the appellate division OF the supreme
court for certain purposes and there can
be no appeal from his decision.
In the case named an appeal was taken
from the action OF the probate cours
of Hopkiuton on the will of the late Benz
jamin Il. Greene.
No jury trial was claimed on the appeal
SO the case came direct 10 the appenats
court and was heard by Judge Douglass
sitting in the appellate division. An
appeal was sought by one side to the full
division consisting of three judges
The appeal Is denied. Judge Tilling-
hast. who writes the opinion OF the court
maintained that for certain purposes thS
appellate division consisted of one division
and for certain other purposes IL con-
sisted OF three judges. Appeals from
probate court coming under the one judge
division his action Is conclusive and for
three judges to review the same under
the provisions OF the statutes would be as
unwarranted as for one Judge to review
the action OF three justices In other cases.
II was shown that should one justices
in n case where he has exclusive turis-
diction find he had made an error to re-
instate the case and set aside his decision
at any time within six months and that
should a case seem of special importancs
and to reserve the case for hearing by
three Justices.
This decision suthoritativeiy decides
what has been something OF a stumblina
block for members OF the bar. Broadly
Il states where one justice Is a quorum
OF the court and his decision II not re-
viewable.

Presentation Of MsdaI to King
Edward BY American Woman.

London. July 23.-Much gossip I'm Amer
lean and English society has been caused
by the presentation 10 King Edward yes
terday by some American ladies OF the
hospital ship Maine committee OF a medal
commemorative OF the Names work
with "A request that the King transmit
the medal 10 Queen Alexandra.
II seems that the idea was opposed by
"A number OF influential members OF the
committee on the ground that the king did
not want the medal bat the others car
ried the day. The Kings reply 10 the deli
egaiion IS causing some comment. as he
thanked this American committee for
their loyal dutiful sentiments" as he did

telegram OF coincidence on the Queens
death and as he also thanked the commit
tee for bringing their valuable services 10

the government whereas this was done
solely by hr Bernard NJ. Baker OF Bal

Some OF the comments heard before
the court reassembled today were to the
effect that the testimony OF James Fos-
burg yesterday was, in measure. dis
appointment 10 the government, which
summoned him. Such feeling. however,
apparently was not held by the district
attorney and his assistants and no such
thought prompted them In making the de-
cision not to call Beatrice.
All efforts to obtain a reason for the
change In plan have brought forth the
same response was made last night,
viz, that DIR. SChofield and Policeman
White having introduced testimony that
Beatrice had told them she saw no bur-
glars, there was no need of having mere
reiteration of the statement
NOT QUESTIONED ABOUT QUARREL.
There had been some expectation that
Beatrice Fosburg and James, too, would
be questioned along the line intended 10
hiring out the fact that the shooting fol-
lowed a serious family quarrel. Thus
far, however, il has been remarked that
such evidence has not been introduced.
From what could be learned early today
IL was considered probable that the state
would finish its case and that possibly
the argument for the defence might DC
