OLD GRAND UNION CLOSED.
Another Old Time Hotel in New York
Must Be Torn Down.

NEW YORK, May 2.-The Grand I'm
ion hotel will be closed for good at the
hour of midnight tonight The proper
ty, which takes in the entire block
front on Park avenue, between 41st
and 42nd streets, has been condemned
by the public service commission.
1t is valued at about SO 100000. Parts
of the hotel are from 40 to so years old
and the public service engineers re-
ported that it would be impossible to
protect the building during the enor-
nous excavation work beneath it's
foundations
This hotel has borne very much the
same relations to the upper part of
the city that the old Astor House did
to the down town district. 1t never
its old character of COM
mercial house and the fame of Its res
taurant made the name of the Grand
Union celebrated everywhere.

COURT PROTECTS
VALID CREDITORS
IN DECISION HANDED DOWN TO.
DAY JUDGE STEELE HOLDS
DEED NOT GOOD.
Property Decided Prior to Death With
out Valuable Consideration Does
Not Release Obligation of Estate.

In a decision handed down by Judg,
Edgar c. Steele OF the district cour
today in the case of Zimmerman VS.
Broman, case involving the disposi
ton of the Wild estate the property Of
which is located in Kendrick the cred
itors of the estate are secured against
loss and the plaintiff who sought to
retain possession of valuable property
by reason of the execution of deed
of conveyance prior to the death OF
Wild, the court however,, construed
that the deed was issued only for the
purpose of avoiding probation of the
estate and not because of any valuable
consideration. The defendant in the
action is the public administrators. The
court holds as follows:
I'm re Zimmerman VS.. Broman
tried in Latah county, the court
has examined the briefs, and consid-
cred the evidence carefully
''The court feels that to give to the
plaintiff all of the real estate covered
by the deeds in question, would be a
fraud upon those who credited the de-
ceased, Wild.
"AIl of the conditions in the case
point to the fact that by these deeds.
the deceased never intended to convey
the title to Mrs Zimmerman, and
leave the unsecured debts and the ex-
penses for his last sickness unpaid.
THE relationship between Mrs.
Zimmerman and the deceased and the
evidence of confidence reposed in Mrs.
Zimmerman by the deceased; the facts
showing what the previous intentions
of the deceased had been prior to the
execution of the deeds; the evidence
with reference to Wild understanding
the property should be recopveyed to
him if he recovered, and that the deed
was made merely to prevent probating. |
or with such an object in view; the |
small amount of property remaining |
with which to pay between $4,000 and +
$4,000 of debts the long period of time |

alleged consideration, and the eXecu-
ton of the deeds; the fact that the I
deeds were never recordeded until af-
fact thaat there was no writing to
show what the consideration of the
deeds was, all point to the fact that
this deed was never intended as an alb
solute deed to Mrs Zimmerman
There is no writing to show what
he consideration for the deed was,

nation wide campaign to awaken the
