G. n. HIGGINS RETURNS $1,000
PART or HIS FEES As re.

slI.ssl In Excess OF the Legal Limit
and That Their Counsel Received
5000 In Excess OF Their Contract
KINGSTON. n. Y. Dec. 19.--In an appli-
cation made before Supreme Court Justice
Belts to-day by Charles NJ. higgins for
his final discharge as receiver Of the Brook
lyn Bank and cancellation Of his bond
MIR. Higgins asks the Court to review the
order heretofore granted fixing the fees
Of receivers and counsel. which he con-
siders excessive.
Mr.. Higgins says in his affidavit that
he returned $1,000 OF the $4,000 received
by him as coreceivership fees. Bruyn
Hasbrouck OF New Paltz was the other
receiver and j. Edward swanstrom and
James @. Church the counsel for the re-
ceivers, $4,000 being allowed the receivers
when the bank resumed business, and the
counsel fees were S22.eoO. During the
period Of suspension the two receivers
converted into cash securities amounting
to ss2o, ,5sl.42. The expenses Of the re-
ceivership were $i41 .l2s.17, which included
As.772.o1 OF preferred claims which were
paid by court order. The total amount
collected and disbursed was 81 .218, ,734 co.
and the maximum statutory fees would
have been sso.4iS.s8. He contends that
the amount received was si1 ,5sl.84 In
excess Of the legal limit.
Mr.. Higgins figured his own excess at
$4,000. which he returned to the bank.
according to his affidavit. He sets up
contract the receivers had with their
counsel whereby the counsel were to do
the legal work for twelve months for
$4,000. their fees to be proportionately
less in case the contract or reoeivership
should terminate sooner. The contract.
known only to counsel was never men-
toned by them. they accepting S22, 600 as
counsel fee. Mr.. Higgins alleges that
payments were irregular and improper
and that he would be unfaithful to his
trust should he fail to call the Courts
attention to the illegal and excessive
and he asks the Court to re-
view them.
Charles N. Stafford of Brooklyn repre-
ssnted MIR. Higgins. He said Attorney
General Jackson was critically i'll in
Albany, but failed to understand why
James C. Church and j. Edward Swan
strom. counsel for the receivers failed
TO appear and answer to the charges.
A representative Of the legal firm of
Beekman q Menkin Of New York
city, attorneys for the bank. asked that
sufficient time be allowed the banks ex-
perts TO examine the accounts of the re-
ceiyers. The matter was adjourned
until December 2s. permission being given
10 examine the books OF the bank while

nation TO begin Monday.
