0vERRULES
HIS PLEAS
Lawyer Crafts Answer to
Mothers Charges Held lnsuf-
fIcIent by Appellate Court

Attorney a. b. Crafts pleas IN the
e7uity suit brought against him by his
mother Marcia +. Crafts. are overruled
In an opinion handed down this morning
by the appellate division OF the supreme
court Mr. Crafts set up-txo pleas in
answer 20 charges made In his mothers
bill of complaint.
The nrst plea was to the effect that
former suit In equity between the same
parties and arising out of the same mat
ter was entered settled by agreement in
1898 and that the complainant is barred
by lapse of time and laches from main
tanning this bill The court says no
facts appear in the plea sufficient TO
work an estoppel ny lapse Of time.
The second plea IL that a bill of review
was brought after deed given 10 set aside
the entry OF settlement and upon de-
murrer IL was held that the bill did not
state case from relief, whereupon II
was discontinued.
This plea Is no defence the court says
for two reasons. because II does not
state whether the demurrer was formal
or one which went 10 the merits OF the
case and the plea Is held TO admit that
there are allegations OF false representa-
tious in this bill which were not in the
other.

OF local union Z OF the woodworkers.
The police think Shaw was concerned in
the strike at Gaugers planning mill and
that he was murdered and thrown into
the river.
There were signs OF violence on the
body. A union card and letter Of rec
ommendation from a manufacturing com
pany of Greene, n. Y, were found on the
corpse
The police think the man met death
at the hands OF the same gang that muir
dered Farress, an empfoye OF Gaugers
mill I'm November last
The fact that a workman should dis
appear during the time Of a strike i'm
mill where "A non-un;on man had been
murdered without causing comment Is
explained by the police on the ground
that the man had not been long ina Chi
