feat the bequest of Stephen Salisbury of
Worcester, Mass. to the Worcester Art
Museum of about 1000 GOO worth of real
estate, met with failure. today when the

court held that il was without jurisdiction
in the case.
Worcester Mass, April I.-Stephen
Salisbury was Worcester's foremost cit

major portion was wlled to the Art Mu-
scum. Benjamin W. Hubbard is one of
several Virginia relatives. He brought ID
writ of entry in the United States cir
cult court at Boston to recover possess
sion of the Massachusetts real estate, at
tacking the right of the Art Museum to
hold SO large an amount of property. An
adverse decision was handed down
against Hubbard and the case was car
ried to the United states supreme court
on a writ OF error
