ViceHChancellOr Wants
More Light on Davis Case
Especial to the Newark starr

JERSEY CITY, Jan. 7.-Counselor
George z. Cutley, representing
Thomas F. higgins In the latter's suit
to restrain the Hudson County Demo-
cratic Club from forecIosing on q
mortgage will have to tell more than
Vice-Chaneellor Lewis already knows
about the late Robert Davis or he will
lose his suit. That was practically
the vice-chancellor's announcement
yesterday.
higgins borrowed $4,000 from the
Davis Association in 1900, giving as
collateral five $1,000 bonds of the Jer-
sey City, Hoboken and Paterson Street
Railway Company. His testimony is
to the effect that he borrowed the
money from the club for the purchas-
ing Of the bonds in the railway COM
pany, and that he gave them as a
collateral until the loan was paid
Nothing has ever been heard of the
bonds again. The vice. chancellor
called the attention of Miggins's coun-
sci to the fact that there was no proof
before him that the late Davis had
ever acted as such an agent for the
association.
