that the federal district court was with
out Jurisdiction, and that if Chaloner
had recovered his reason upon presen-

state supreme court, proceedings ad-

annulled. But Chaloner does not dare

Chaloner is legally insane under the
laws of the state of New York, while
having been declared of sound mind by
the couro5 of Virginia and North Car

United States courts for protection in
order that he may return to New York
and prosecute a legal battle for the
recovery of his property. He now en-
joys a yearly allowance of $4,000. He
accuses members of his family of re-

Chaloner was adjudged insane in
New York many years ago. He spent
five years in a padded cell at Bloom
ingdale. He escaped and made his
way to Philadelphia, where he placed
himself under the observation of alien
lists for some time before going to

by a jury. He has since
