NEW YORK, July l4.-Albert +.
and Daniel A. McWillams. sons of

won a Judgment OF about $4,000 and
were declared entitled 10 half In

in report OF ex-Surrogate Charles II.
Beckett.
II the report is confirmed, the two,
young men, who have been compare
lively poor. will suddenly find a for
tune at their disposal.
This victory is due directly TO the
discharge OF Albert f. McWilliams,
formerly employed as clerk by the
big towing company, McWilliams
Bros, OF No. l Broadway" because he
asked questions about the firms bus
mess. His father was a partner with
his brother Daniel McWIlhams. in
McWilliams Bros. from 1884 until the
time OF his death.
The judgment Is recommended
against the business OF McWilliams
Bros,
Attorney Charles o. Mas In 1908
started suit for an accounting. The
trustees OF Daniel McWilliams alleged
that he was not partner with
Charles in the towing business. Mas
found in the court records a COM
plant in which Daniel McWnliams
stated a short time before his death
that he was a partner OF Charles. The
evidence showed that after Charles
died his brother Daniel. continued the
business and bought boats with the
partnership funds as his personal
property and used them with the firm
boats For this reason the firm boats
showed no profits for several years.
