RENAMED FOR REHEARINe.
The Court of Appeals Decision in the
AicGhee-We8Sb Suit.

In the Court Of Appeals today Justice
Morris in q somewhat lengthy opinion,
announced the reversal of the decision Of
the Supreme Court Of the District in the
case of Mary Ann McGhee and others
against Mary J. Welsh The cause was
Temanded for reheaUing- The litigation
involved the settlement of the estate Of
Nicholas WheIan, and among other pieces
of real estate, involved the title to the
premises occupied by the Southern Ex-
press Company.
1t is explained that WheIan died in
1890 and his estate reverted to his daugh-
ter, Catherine Ann Whelan, who died in
1891 During the greater part Of her life
it is said, she was of feeble mind and in
competent to make a valid deed or con-
tract. and was finally adjudged insane
by a jury of inquisition- About 1919, it is
stated that one Thomas Connolly gained
control OF the estate of Catherine Ann
Whelan, and also of her person, and, It is
said, kept her IL confinement on farm
in Montgomery county, Maryland. In 1873
it is said, Connolly obtained a deed to her
property from Catherine Ann WheIan-
When he died in 1852 the property revert
ed to his niece and sole heir, Mary J
Welsh

this morning He did not appear to be
enthusiastic about the result of yester-

somewhat disappointed at the showing
made on the first spin.
We are not at all afraid of the Sham
rock, he said but we do fear the Co
lUmbfa- The Constitution seemed to be
dead in the liSht wind yesterday and
those Of the crew who were on Columbia
do not think the new boat did as well
on her first trial as Columbia did. We
believe, though, that HereshOff has built
a boat for all weathers this year and we
have four complete suits of sails of diff
ferent sizes to be used in races. accord
ing to the wind prevailing at the time

she disappointed me yesterday in a light
wind Her topsaiI set very badly, though
and that made some difference with her
speed The headsaIIs and mainsaiI fitted
well We did not try the spinuaker, as
neither the pole nor the cloth is ready
The Constitution is fully as quick in stays
as the Columbia, and we believe she can
sail much closer to the wind, at least she
pointed very high yesterday. When Capt.
Nat HerreshOf was at the wheel yester-
day she spun around once SO fast that
two Of the crew lost their footing and
nearly went overheard. l hope when she
is tuned up she VIII be a success. but

has done. and she's a good one"
