TO ENJOIN MRS. G. T. YERKES
Executor Wants Court to Stop Her
from Beginning and Prosecuting Suits.

Argument was begun yesterday before
Judge Coke, in the United States Circuit
Court, for injunction to restrain Mrs.
Mary Adelaide Yerkes, widow of Charles
T. Yerkes, from prosecuting suits already
brought and from bringing new suits
against Louis S. Owsley. executor of the
Yerkes estate. The first motion was for
injunction to make Mrs. Yerkes stand
by agreement whereby she accepted a
sum of $4,000 as a settlement of her dover
rights. and the second to prevent her from
bringing suits TO interfere with settlements
contemplated by the executor.
w Orison Underwood. of Boston, who ap-
peared for the executor. said that Mrs.
Yerkes was bringing suits at the rate Of
one a week and the executor was kept so
busy with these that he had no time to de-
vote TO the management of the estate. J..
Russell Soley, who appeared for Mrs.
Yerkes. said the settlement was not bind
ing to prevent her from conserving the es-
tate and attacked the settlement reached
by the executor i'll the Chicago Railways
bond case. He also denied the right of the
court to interfere with suits brought be-
fore the Surrogates' and Probate courts.

SANITY TEST FOR BELLING
Court Hears Alleged Forger Borrowed
Money for Imaginary Persons.

Judge Grain appointed a commission yes
terday TO examine into the sanity of
Charles A Belling, the former third vice
president of the Bronx National Bank. who
is charged with forging certificates of the
bank TO obtain loan of 5000 from the
knickerbocl1er Trust Company.
When Belling was arraigned in General
Sessions Judge Grain said that he had re-
ceived a report from DIR. George M. Parker.
under whose observation he placed Belling
several days ago. questioning the mans
sanity Bellng's counsel declared that for
two years his client had been laboring un-
der delusions. Loans were negotiated by
him, according to the lawyer, for ina ginary
persons, which Bellng had to take I'D at
maturity. He also went on automobile
rides with these imaginary persons and it
is alleged that hundreds of dollars were
spent for taXicab and automobile hire
The commission which will investigate
these and other statements relating to Bel
lings sanity consists of George l.. Lewis.

FOR INDEPENDENT SUBWAYS
Taxpayers Association to Send
Protest to Governor Dix.

The Washington Heights Taxpayers' As
sociation again went record last night
as being opposed TO the Interborough sub
way proposition, and in favor of an indie
pendent system. L. F. Eilert introduced
a resolution calling for the appointment
Of a committee, which will appear before
the Board of Estimate, January 5. to
state the views of the association
The, service We receive is very poor.
and We won't get anything better unless
we fight for it, he said. The best way
TO get it is through an Independent system
that viii compel the Interborough to do
better"
Collins NJ. Woodward supported Mr. Eli
crt. The Interborough proposition means
q, continuation of the treatment we are re-
ceiying now he said. The transit policy
OF the city is now to be fixed for all time
If the Interborough proposal prevails we
will have d. continuation of the manage
nent that has demonstrated its inability
to give the people proper service: not
that they cannot do il, but that they will
not do it. If no other thing were secured
by our fight except competition, we should
fight for it to the end"
Richard J. Harvey criticised the attitude
OF the Public Service Commission, and Of
committee OF the association to draft a
communication to Governor-elect Dix on
the unsatisfactory transit conditions of
the Washington Heights district The
resolution WAS adopted unanimously
New-York tribune., 1910-12-24
SETTLE ON SUBWAYS FIRST
Attitude of Board of Estimate
Nav Delay 81" Extensions.

| No matter what the report of the transit
committee of the Board of Estimate on the
communication Of the Public Service Com
| mission in regard TO the lnterborouSh
proposition may be- it seems to be definitely
assured that the board will take up the
problem of further transit facilities for the
city and thrash it out thoroughly. Certain
members of the board are determined not
to vote on the Interborough proposition
alone before they have had a chance to
discuss the policy of the city on transit
matters before the entire board.
AS the question of granting the right to
the Interborough for third tracking and
extending its elevated lines is vitality con-
nected with the offer of the transit COM
pany for the building of more subways,
there is a sentiment in the Board of Esti-
mate not to pass finally on that problem
before reaching some determination on the
proper course to pursue in future subway
building
One of the members Of the board said
yesterday that he would personally ask
the Public Service Commission to furnish
further details regarding the bargain it is
willing to make and declared that If the
commission was not inclined TO furnish this
information it might be possible TO at least
best terms would he.
Borough President McAneny declared
that it wrong to attach any vital sig
nificance to the fact that he withdrew his
motion for a consideration of the Public
Service communication by the committee
of the whole
TT seems hardly necessary to say, he
declared, that my course in this instance
had nothing whatever to do with my atti-
tude on either of the propositions before
the city. The point / tried to make was
simply that it is high time that the board
itself got down to business. / see little to
be gained by continued exploitation of in
dividual views. The problem before the
city is pretty fairly we'll defined and if the
Board of Estimate is to preserve its posi-
tion as a deliberative body it will begin
pretty soon TO tackle the problem"
President McAneny declared that his
mind was absolutely open, and that he was
ready to be convinced that either the
Interborough proposition the triborough
was the better for the city.
Borough President Steers of Brooklyn in
dicated yesterday more clearly than ever
before that his leanings are toward the
1nterborough proposition.
Il do not want to promise how ] Will
vote" he said, until it comes time to act
on the report of the transit committee. I
want to get the very best that can be OBJ
tanned for Brooklyn. l will say. however
that L am for the Interborough as long as
L am satisfied that it is doing the best it
can for Brooklyn
Mayor Gaynor. as chairman of the transit
committee of the board, has not yet set
day for a meeting, but it is expected that
the committee will do its utmost to reach a
decision before the next meeting of the full
board, on January 3.

SHOT HER ON REFUSAL
Girls NO Nearly Costs Life
When Wooer Loses Patience.

Jacob Moscowitz. a cutter. asked his
sweetheart Annie Dienstag to marry him
last night She refused, whereupon Mos
cowltz drew revolver and fired five shots
at her. One bullet hit her over the right
ear. She was taken to Gouverneur Hospi-
tai, where it was said she would recover
Moscowitz was locked UP in the Union
Market station house.
For eight months, according to the mans
story, he had been wooing the girl. Dur
ing that time he had shoWered trinkets
and f1nery upon her to the value of $50. The
girl was not moved by these touching evi-
dences of his esteem, for as often as he
popped the question he got a naughty re-
fusal.
Finally, he told the police, he became
desperate and spent 81 more for revolver.
He put the weapon in his pocket last night
and went to the girls home. determined
either to win her consent to marry him or
to kill her.

REBUkE TO COURT OPINION
Prejudicial to Accused in Murder
Case. Saws Justice Seabury.

| Justice Seabury granted certificate OF
reasonable doubt yesterday to William
Heinemann, convicted of manslaughter- In
granting the petition the supreme Court
justice said that Judge Swami, or General
Sessions, before whom Heinemann had been
tried, had gravely erred on the trial and
made statements that were prejudicial to
the accused.
Heinemann was convicted of having killed
Robert Dooley on New Years night al
Lenox avenue and 145th street. He was
sentenced to term Of from ten to twenty
years His defence was that he had been
attacked by several rowdies and had acted
in self-defence.
Justice Seabury said that the records OF
the trial showed that Heinemann did not
have fair trial, and added:
I'm such case it was especially i'm
portant that the trial judge should have
refrained from indicating to the jury his
own opinion of the defendants guilt and
from comment calculated to prejudice the
rights of the defendant
One of the coroners had discharged
Heinemann. but the District Attorney had
him rearrested, and he was indicted for
murder in the first degree. The coroner
was criticised at the trial for discharginS
Heinemann
Ouc punt IndL Justice SedDury uWeit OH
in connection with the conduct Of Judge
Swami had to do with the motion of coun-
sci for the defendant for the dismissal of
the Indictment on the ground that 1t was
not shown that the shooting had been in
the heat of passion. Judge Swami denied
the motion, and when the lawyer had
finished his summing up Judge Swami, TAX
ing up the matter already disposed of, said
that if the prisoner had not committed the
crime in the heat of passion he was guilty
Of a greater crime than manslaughter, as
that reverse was generalization. OF this
remark Justice Seabury said:
1.-The effect of this statement was to i'm
press upon all who heard 1t that in the
opinion of the court If the statement of the
defendants own counsel was correct the
defendant had been guilty of murder 1t
seems to me that the statement of the
court after the defendants counsel had
up was prejudiciaI 10 the defend

Heinemann viii now be released on bail
pending his appeal for a new trial.
