AN ACADEMY or FINE ARTS SUED.
n. n. Tewne Brings Action Against the
Philadelphia Society for Selling Picture.

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 1.-THE Pennsyl-
vania Academy Of Fine Arts is defendant
in an equity suit instituted to-day in the
United States Circuit Court by Henry
X. Towne Of New York. executor OF the
estate Of John H. Towne. The latter died
In 1874 and his will bequeathed to the acad-
envy a legacy Of 5000. and the painting
Landing Of the Mortimer on the Coast
of America
1t was understood that the legacy was
to be put to charitable Use and that the
managers OF the academy were to have no
power or authority to make any disposition
Of the money or painting, which was to be
kept at the art gallery: In 1898, the pict-
ure, it is alleged, was sold to Simon Leopold
Of New York for 500, and Mr.. Towne has
brought suit to compel the managers Of
the academy TO regain the painting or
in default Of recovery, to return both
legacies.
The mana gers OF the academy have
announced their intention of recovering
possession of the picture. which is said to be
worth 335 900, and in consequence OF their
promises legal action was deferred. MIR
Towne says, however, in his bill Of COM
plant that becoming convinced that the
necessary measures Of recovery would
not be taken unless under compulsion.
he is forced to appeal to the court.
