DECIDES DEED is FORGERY
Justice Erlanger Scores Widow
of John P. Conlon.

Justice Erlanger decided yesterday that
deed purporting to transfer the property
NO 12t Worth street. valued at $4,000
from John r. Conlon to his wife. Mrs. Eva
X. Conlon. was forgery. Justice En-
LANCER said that the signature on the deed
was much like that Of ConIon, who died in
1899. but to his mind was spurious.
As 10 the testimony given by handwrit-
ing experts In the case to prove the genu-
ineness OF the signature, the court said
their evidence was not always 10 be relied
upon
Conlon left an estate whose estimated
value was 800. 900. chiefly 10 the Mission
Of the Immaculate Virgin for tho Protection
OF Homeless and Destitute Children and
the Home for the Aged Of the Little Sisters
Of the Poor.
Mrs. Conon, although his relatives be-
i:eved him unmarried. established COM
mon law marriage and succeeded in having
half Of the charitable requests set aside
and obtaining her dover rights. Mrs. Con-
lon tried to get all OF the property. produc-
Ing what purported TO be transfers made
TO her by Conlon.
Justice O'Gorman. before whom the case
ferrous TO merit serious consideration" and
that her statement that she paid Conlon
$500 for his property "a pure fabrica-
ton"
In 1907 Mrs. Conlon got in touch, through
an advertisement in a newspaper, with
Frederick G.. Anderson. a notary. who had
a deed to tho Worth street property which
Anderson said Conlon had left with him
for safekeeping. Mrs. Conlon recorded
this deed. after which she submitted It TO
two handwriting experts, who told her it
was a forgery. subsequently,. Anderson
was indicted for forgery. lie turned states
evidence. and John l.. Bough, owner or
Bowery hotel, was sent to Sing Sing. An
derson. who is now dead, also admitted
that the Conlon decd was a forgery.
In deciding yesterday against Mrs. Con-
len. Justice Erlanger said: "a history Of
this legal warfare in chronological order
tends in no small degree TO shed light upon
the different efforts made by her TO obtain
and shows her versatility in that particular.
When results in the courts did not meas
ure up to her conception Of her rights,
other means of attack on the estate were
introduced and she is now before the court,
not upon her own initiative, but because
she is charged with an attempt at appro-
priating to herself a valuable piece of prop
erty through the means of a deed which
the plaintiff contends is a forged paper"
