WILL HAVE TO ECONOMIC

NEW YORK, March 21.-John
Armstrong Chaloner (Chanler), au-
thor of the famous query, who's
loony now?" has asked Justice Coha-
Ian to increase his yearly allowance
from $17,000 year to $4,000. His
application is based upon report OF
his committee, Thomas T. Sherman,
showing that Chaloner has gross
annual income of 100000 and a net
income of $4,000.
Chaloner was adjudged an incom-
potent in this State many years ago
and placed in an asylum He es-
capped, went TO Virginia and was there
declared competent by jury. He
has since lived on his farm, Merry
Mills" at Gotham, Va, and has
avoided returning to this State.
In applying for an increase in his
allowance, Chaloner states that he
has always been accustomed TO
wealth and luxury. At the age of 81,
he says, he had an income of $24,-
600 to spend as he chose.
Il am no longer young" he de-
clares in his plea, being 81 years of
age. Sixteen of the best years of
my life l have been robbed by the
villainous actions of my family.
Wherefore it does not appear unreal
sonable to your petitioner to pray
this honorable court to take pity on
his years and his unmerited misfor-
tunes and grant in the evening of
life those mental and physical COM
forts of which the MONDAY of his
life was robbed by the Vaccinations
of his covetous and cruel relatives.
According to. Chaloner's estimate
he is now in need of about $26,6
to pay his expenses. He says he will
do with $4,000, however, by laying
off my assistant secretary, a proof
reader and a groom"
