Gibbons Bankruptcy Case Heard
by Appellate Division.

The appellate division Of the supreme
court today heard the case of stephen j.
Carey. trustee, in bankruptcy Of Thos
F. Gibbons against Stoneman Gross
man to recover s91.O3. Mr.. Carey claims
that Gibbons paid the sum named to the
respondents within five months Of his
being declared a bankrupt. The case
came before the court on plaintiffs de-
murrer to the defendants special plea.
This special plea denied the preference
setting UP that they caused the arrest Of
Gibbons in an action on book account,
and that Gibbons I'm order To be released
from Imprisonment paid the amount
Plaintiffs demurrer is TO the effect that
the plea only amounts To the general
issue, and that the matters Set forth In
the plea are insufficient in law and are
no answer TO the said plaintiffs declara-
tion.
stephen j. Casey and Terrence M
O'Reilly were respectively counsel for
plaintiff and defendants.

on rude couch and presently he went to
his own bed.
At 6 o'clock this morning he left the
house, having some work to attend to.
The woman was then. so he thought, all
right.
Just before o'clock he returned. The
woman was still on the couch. but she
was groaning as though suffering intense
pain, and she had been vomiting.
Cole ran out and asked DR. Fisher to
come and see the sick woman.
The doctor responded almost immedi-
ately, but before he reached the hovel the
woman was dead.
Patrolman John NJ. Dyer was notified
and he in turn notified Medical Examiner
Palmer.
Or. Palmer found no external injuries
and surmising that the woman might
have taken poison. ordered the body to
be taken to Carpenters undertaking
rooms on Plainield street, where he In
tended later I'm the day. TO make more
thorough investigation. and probably hold
an autopsy.
There was nothing about the woman's
body that would aid in her identificat ton.
Some OF those who saw the dead woman
thought that she was one who had quite
recently been a housekeeper for John
Phillips. a Johnston farmer and the po-
lice are following up that suggestion to
determine its value.

Latest Action Of Defendant
Against Plaintiff Cummings.

The defendant in the suit OF Michael
Cummings against National and Provi-
dence Worsted mills asked the appellate
court today 10 set aside the verdict of
t12 500 given by jury TO Mr.. Cummings.
The latter was a carpenter I'm the employ
OF the defendant company and his du-
ties were chiefly TO make repairs about
the mills
on April IL, 1900 Just after the noon
hour. he was engaged in putting new
floor i'm one OF the side alleys in the spin-
ming room OF mill number one. A belt
broke and struck the plaintiff I'm the
eyes. Mr.. Cummings bled profusely from
eyeballs and his face about the eyes was
greatly bruised and swollen by the force
Of the blow from the belt. The result
Of the blow was a displacement or turn
ins over OF the interior parts OF the eye
causing a structural injury in both eyes
so that vision in one eve was practically
totally destroyed al the time OF the ac-
cident. and tho sight OF the other eve
,sas been so impaired that total blindness
in that eve also Is matter OF only a
short time.
Defendant claims that the verdict is
against the law and the evidence. and
tho weight thereof. that said evidence
does not show any negligence on the
part OF the defendant. and that the dam
ages awarded by the jury were excessive
and unjust. The defendant claims that
the belt was n proper one. and that the
Saturday before the accident the belt

allege the execution OF a trust agreement
by which Mrs. Banigan was TO hold so
shares for them OF the American Wringer
company stock, she to receive the profits
and income during her life and at her
death the stock to be held for them.
The third case against Mr.. Ballou sub
mitted to the court was that of Mary z.
Linn. The complainant claims that Mrs
Banigan executed trust instrument for
Mrs. Inns benefit by which she was
TO have Is shares of the Pioneer Electric
Power company gold bonds after Mrs.
Banigan's death. The claim OF Mrs. Linn.
who is niece OF Mrs. Banigan, is that
she rendered valuable services to Mrs.
Banigan and the trust agreement was In
payment of those services. She wishes an
accounting OF the proceeds of the sale.
BALLoU's ANSWER.
Mr. Ballou in his answer TO all the
cases put the complainants upon their
proof and expressed his sole desire TO be
TO pay over the property involved when
ever and TO whomsoever he can safely do
so, but he says that for his protection
decision OF the court is necessary.
The chief question raised by parties In
interest is whether the trusts are ire
vocable and whether the Linn and Maher
children's trust were revoked
Mrs. Lingane gave considerable testi-
mony TO the effect that Mrs Banigan did
not think these gifts amounted to much
and had stated she could revoke them at
any time.
David f. Lingane Joined his wife IN
testimony to show that the gifts TO the
Maher children were revoked.
AS TO the Linn claim the other heirs
of Mrs. Banigan say that the gift was re-
voked by Mrs. Banigan selling the stock
and making a new investment of the pro-
ceeds of the sale.
James c. Collins. Jr.. is counsel for the
Mahers, James NJ Gilrain is counsel for
Mrs. Linn and Edwards & Angel are
counsel for Mr.. Ballou.

he has it, spends more time invent

He will raise a great row at home
if he has been given a spoon that
has been used by one of the child

and shovel sauerkraut into his
mouth with an iron fork that has
been used by guzzlcrs Of all nation
