COURT UPH0LDS REFEREE
Confirms Report on Carnegie
Trust Claim Against Iron Co.

Justice Greenbaum. Of the Supreme
Court, confirmed yesterday the report OF
Referee Charles +. Brown, who recon-
mended that the application of White &
Case. attorneys for the State Banking De-
partment, 20 permit o. ~. Cheney. Super
intendent Of Banks, to assign to the cred
itors committee OF the Carnegie Trust
Company. the claim of the defunct trust
company against the Plat Iron Works
Company, of Dayton, Ohio, for $500 900
loaned by the trust company, be granted.
The Carnegie Trust Company took as
collateral security for the loan 10000 I'm
bonds Of the iron works company. secured
by a mortgage upon its real estate and
plant, on which bonds TO the value of
$500 900 had been issued.
The referee finds that the Indebtedness
of the defendant company amounts to
s1546.sS1 The assets, ether than the real
estate, are valued at $500.
The report says that since its organization.
in 1900 the Plat Iron Works Company has
done a business amounting TO about 81. 800, -
900 gross a year and that it employs seven
hundred men.
1T has not. however, continues Judge
Brown, been successful or profitable. II
has a large plant, covering several acres
Of ground, which. with the real estate it
owns. is estimated to be worth sl,@ocoo.
II is apparent that unless the iron works
company can obtain an extension of time
for the payment Of its Indebtedness from
its more important creditors 1t will be
compelled TO so into liquidation

OPINIONS IN HOE CASE
British Lawyers Views on Suit
of Mrs. Brown for S230,0O0.

The opinions Of three English lawyers on
the validity of a certain trust. whereby the
late Robert Hoe. the printing press manu-
facturer. set aside securities valued at
100000 for the benefit OF Mrs. Margaret
Johnson Brown, were filed yesterday in the
County Clerks office. The woman. whose
husband obtained a divorce from her. is
now Mrs. Johns. She is suing the execu-
tors Of the Hoe estate 10 get securities
valued at 500 900 and a mortgage OF $4,000
Her first husband brought suit against
Mr. Hoe for alternating her affections ana
he testified few days ago that Mr.. hoe
settled the case with him for 5000.
The trust on which the British lawyers
give their views. as II was made In Lon
don. consisted Of shares OF the Metropoli-
tan Trust Company. which were placed
with Harold Burn Hopgood. They were TO
be delivered on the written request of Mrs
Brown I'm the lifetime of Mr.. Hoe or on
his death. Mr.. Hoe reserved the right 10
revoke the trust at any time. Mrs. Johns
is now suing TO enforce the trust.
r. Newton Crane, one of the London
lawyers. said the fact that the agreement
was sealed was not evidence OF considera-
ton. He said that the defence OF immoral
consideration or the defence that the agree
ment was contrary 10 public policy was
good defence. a transaction against pub
Tic policy, he said. WAS not enforceable in
England.
Frank Gore Brown said that promise
under seal was enforceable without con-
alteration. If the alleged immoral con-
sideration was past, the transaction was
valid. but II the consideration was 10 be
future immortality the tpust was invalid.

A. Gildersleeve as referee to hear the
charges OF the Bar Association against AL
fred 3. Osgoodby. a lawyer Osgoodby'
who was admitted to the bar in 1903 In
Buffalo. must answer the charge Of unpro-
fessional conduct.
One OF the charges against the lawyer is
the result of his connection with a divorce
suit brought in Kings County. The wife In
the case obtained $50 counsel fees and S. a
week almony. 1t IS charged that Osgoodby
received 500 from the husband, whom he
represented, and never paid the money due
the wife.
Another complaint is made by Mrs. Celia
Fritzel She consulted Osgoodby, she AL
legged. about a clipping that appeared In a
Chicago newspaper which told of her hus-
band being arrested as concerned IN the
white slave traffic. The lawyer assured
her that was sufficient ground for divorce,
and she retained him TO bring suit for her
paying him 500. After she paid the money
Mrs Fritzel said she was unable TO see
Osgoodby again. He sent a demand for
money, which she refused. Osgoodby makes

TOBACCO "AD" V0IDS LEASE
New Broadway Landlord Gains
by Francis Crawford's Scruples.

In dismissing the suit of O. j. Gude &
Co. against lido w. Fleischmann. the APP
pellate Division Of the Supreme Court up
held the terms of the lease TO the company
whereunder they were restrained from
placing any advertisements of liquor or to-
bacco on the boards on the Fleischmann
property. at Broadway. Columbus avenue
and ssth street.
Fleischmann bought the triangular plot
from the estate OF Francis Crawford, a
prominent member Of the Prohibition party,
who had been its candidate for high office.
He leased the property to the Guide con-
Germ, which is in the advertising business,
the lease STIMULATING that II any whiskey
or tobacco signs were painted on the prop
erty the lease would ipso facto be at an
end.
While Crawford lived the advertising firm
observed this clause in the lease. But one
day last January an employe painted a
large cigarette advertisement on the
boards, which cancelled the lease. GUIDE &
Co. said that the sign was painted against
their orders, that Fleischmann had no
prejudice against either tobacco Or whskey,
and that what he really wanted was 5000
year more rental.

Judge Reid overruled the motion for
new trial, but gave Dietz ten days in which
to file exceptions. The judge then sem
