BRINGS ACTION
TO HAVE TRUST
DEED SET ASIDE
Suit Instituted Involves Estate
of w. H. Sanford, Killed
by Auto.

A suit to set aside deed of trust
Involving the estate of William H
Stanford. a druggist whose business
was at 256 Mulberry street, Newark
was brought to trial before Vice.
Chancellor Emery today. Mr.. Stan
ford was killed by an automobile
near the Continental Hotel August
81, 1911.
The proceeding was brought by
Miss Mary Mersereau, of East Or
ange, against Jennie Clark Denman,
of Newark, and Charles w. Cox, who
are executors under Mr. Stanford s
will, and trustees under the deed now
sought to be set aside. Miss Merse-
reau and Mr.. Stanford were sweet
hearts for a number of years, and
for ten years before his death were
engaged to be married.
Making his will Mr.. Stanford dis
posed of an estate said to be worth
more than 100000 at this time. He
left most of his estate to Miss Merse-
reau, the only other bequest of any
size being one of $4,000 to Miss Den
man, a favorite niece.
Miss Mersereau has been a sufferer
from a nervous malady for number
of years, and on October IA, 1912, was
a patient in Overlook, Summit. At
this time, she AYERS, she signed the
deed of trust, not understanding its
character This provided that Miss
Denman and Mr.. Cox, as executors,
were to administer the entire estate
and to pay her the income of her
death before that of Miss Denman
the property was to go to Miss Den
man. If Miss Denman died first the
estate was to go to the Job Haines
Home for the Aged, in Bloomfield,
Miss Mersereau on discovering that
the deed prevented her from dispos-
ing of the estate by will or other
wise, wrote to Mr.. Cox at his office
in 40 Wall street, New York, asking
him to have it revoked. He declined
to do this, and the present suit was
brought.
For the defendants it is declared
that Miss Mersereau well knew the
purport of the trust deed, and that
it carried out a solemn obligation on
her part Before Mr.. Stanford made
his will it was agreed between Miss
Mersereau and Mr.. Stanford that she
should make such provision that Miss
Denman should be the beneficiary of
the estate if she should survive Miss
Mersereau, and that if she did not
the property was to go to the Job
Haines Home. This, the defendants
declare, Miss Mersereau well under
stood and had agreed to it at sew
eral conversations. They deny that
any deceit was exercised in the max
ing of the deed and ask that 1t be
sustained.
Ex-Judge Gilbert Collins and Ro-
land D. Crocker appear for the COM
plainant. Lindabury, Depue & Faulks
for the defendants and John r. Har-
din for the trustees. Charles G.. Tits
worth appears for the Job Haines
Home.

GRADUATES MAY
SUBSTITUTE TRIPS
FOR EXERCISES
Committee of Education Board
Will Grant Permit if Par
ents Agree.

The committee on instruction and
educational supplies of the Board of
Education met last night and voted
to grant permission to substitute ex-
cursions by graduating classes for
commencement exercises only where
all the graduates secure the consent
of their parents to such change.
The question was brought up when
applications were received from the
graduating classes of three schools
the Eighteenth Avenue School and
the Ann Street and South Market
Street schools. The class of the first
school would rather take a trip to
Trenton than have commencement ex-
ercises, and the latter two schools
would rather visit West Point.
Commissioner Throssell objected to
such a change, and pointed to the
fact that many parents take pride in
their children being graduated. The
day is also one that many pupils look
back upon with pride, he said, and
these sentiments are being destroyed
by excursions.
Bertha z. Loew was appointed
teacher Of French at the East Side
High School at a salary of $1,000 a

from $500 to $500, beginning Septem-
ber 1.

school authorities in the formation of
a boys choir under the auspices of
the German-American Central Alli-
ance was referred to Superintendent
to report back at the next
In the letter of the alliance
similar enterprises in Brooklyn, Phil
adelphia and Elizabeth were referred
to, and it was stated that they had
proven very successful
The committee decided to have the
work of fitting up the old Normal
School for use by the Girls Industrial
School started so as to have the
rooms ready by the opening Of the
new term. For the cost of fitting up
the building and getting the neces-
sary supplies $4,000 have been set
aside in the budget for 1914
A recommendation of the superin-
tendent to add new courses to the
of the Central High
School was referred to a sub-commit-
tee consisting of Commissioners Tay-
Ior, johnson and Brown.

DELAYS DECISION
IN MOVIES FIGHT
To Investigate Further the Al
legged Infringement of
MADAM X"

Admitting that he did not know
very much about moving pictures and
that he had not seen many produced,
Vice Chancellor Stevens today said
that he would have to inquire further
before making permanent an inJunc-
ton obtained by Henry w. Savage,
Inc, against the Progressive Film
Company and the Wilcar Film Com
pany.
The Savage concern seeks to pre-
vent the production of the picture
play entitled "Magda, a Modern
Madam X" in the State of New Jer-
sey. Already an injunction has. been
granted in New York by Supreme
Court Justice Weeks, who character
ized the moving picture title as "a
fraud on the public" The picture,
an elaborate production, was made in
Spain by the Hispano Film Company
and the American rights were bought
by the Progressive Film Company, of
New York. They let State rights in
New Jersey and Pennsylvania to the
Wilcar concern.
Edward NJ. Collie, representing
Henry w. Savage, showed the vice
chancellor that his client had obtain
ed the sole stage rights to the play
MADAM X" in this country and had
scored a success. The title and the
pray nave Deeil COpyIlSliLSu anu MI
Savage owns the copyright. In ad-
vertising the moving picture, "Magda,
a Modern Madam *" the film COM
panies had minimized the Importance
of the first part of the title, but had
printed the words Madam X" in
very large type, thereby creating the
inference that it was a reproduction
of the original play.
Milton Lowry, solicitor for the NOV
ing picture people declared that his
clients had no intention of deceiving
the public or infringing the rights of
the Savage corporation. He said that
the phrase Madam X" was used
solely to characterize the picture
In the talk that followed, the vice.
chancellor explained his ignorance of
matters pertaining to motion pictures,
and it was suggested by one of the
lawyers present that a private pre-
sentation of the play might be pro-
fitable to him. Decision was reserved

URGE TAXING Of

Associated Auto Clubs of Jer-
sey Pass Resolution at
Meeting.

Tax all vehicles" was the gist of
a resolution passed last night at a
meeting of the board of directors of
the Associated Automobile Clubs OF
New Jersey
The meeting was held in Achtel-
Stetter's restaurant, Broad street.
The legislative committee was in
structed to draft bill providing for
the taxing of all vehicles that use
the public highways. This bill will be
introduced in the Legislature at the
next session.
In his report to the board Joseph H.
Wood, of this city, explained such a
measure could not have been intro
duced at the last session of the Leg
jslature because the automobile legis-
lation was so great.
The meeting was presided over by
George A. Post, of Paterson. A reso-
luton was passed requesting State
Road Commissioner Stevens to place
direction signs along highways, in
compliance with the law. The clubs
represented at the meeting were Mid
| dlesex, North Jersey and Essex Coun-
! try Auto clubs, the Auto Club OF
Hudson county and the Somerset
Auto Association. The latter was ad-
mitted to membership at last nights
