ST, $50 Too High for Grief
Retrial of Widows Suit
Against Undertaken Ordered

If the urn which William Necker,
Inc, undertakers, delivered to Mrs.
Rosalie Stahl really contains the ashes
OF her husband, Carl M. Stahl, then the
widow is not entitled to recover dam
ages for her mental anguish due to a
wrong date of death engraved upon the
urn. Therefore, the Appellate Division
yesterday reversed verdict for 81 $50
which Mrs. Stahl recovered against the
corporation.
Mr.. Stahl died May s, 1915. His
widow arranged with Necker for the
cremation of his body at Union Hill.
The urn with the ashes bore the date
April 81, 1915. There is no such date
on the calendar. Besides, any date in
April would have been before the death
of Mr.. Stahl. Mrs. Stahl brought suit
against Necker. The trial court in
structed the jury that Mrs. Stahl might
recover damages because of the wrong
Date even if the jury decided she re-
celVed the right ashes. In reversing
the Judgment and ordering a new trial
the Appellate Division declIAd that the
court erred in his charge.

Appellate Division Upholds
Verdict in Favor of
Joseph H. Cohen
Conspiracy Is Charged
South American Exploration
Pictures Used as Lure to
Attract Young Heir

Under a decision rendered yesterday
by the Appellate Division Martin c.
Wright, son of William j. Wright, q
former Tammany leader and Deputy
Commissioner Of Charities. must pay
judgment for s15,40o obtained against
him by Joseph H. Cohen. The transac-
ton which resulted in the suit and
judgment was characterized by the
court as "a very common, deliberate
swindle."
A few months after the death Of
George H. Huber, veteran dime museum
owner and real estate operator, his
young widow, who inherited most of his
estate, married Martin c. Wright.
Charges Conspiracy
1t was alleged by Cohen that Wright
conspired with Charles B. Toole,
broker, and J. B. G. Rinehart. lawyer,
to defraud him out of $4,000 in the
sale of stock of the Globe Cooperative
Film Company. He sued to recover
that amount. Judgment was rendered
against the three defendants, but Rine-
hart did not join in the appeal from
the verdict. In the case of cole, the
Appellate Division ordered new trial
on the ground that the trial justice
failed to instruct the jury that certain
testimony against Wright should nor
be considered as against Toole.
Cohen, who then was twenty-four
years old, inherited $4,000 from his
grandfather He was introduced to
Toole after being induced to believe he
could increase his fortune by speculat-
ing in cotton futures. Wright, who was
employed by Toole, interested the mex
perienced young man in the POSSIBLE
ties of the moving picture stock.
Induced to Buy Stock
Wright told him the company con-
trolled a South American exploration
film which would prove as valuable as
the African hunt pictures of Paul j.
Rainey, which Wright said had earned
100000 Wright also represented
that he had invested in the stock for
his mother and was using all his spare
ca. in buying the film shares.
Rinehart was represented as
director of the company, and, according
to Wright, had authorized him to sell
few $40 shares for Sc share. There
was a private exhibition of the MIN,
which so impressed Cohen that re con-
scented to buy the stock, which he testi-
fed Toole had told him would advance
to s13 share on the curb, where it was
to be listed
A few DAYS after Cohen had parted
with his money Wight disappeared
from Toole's Office, and the plaintiff, be-
coming suspicious, started an investi-
cation. He learned that the film COM
pany never controlled nor had an op-
ton on the picture he had seen.

One of the means by which chronic

that in proceeding to Governors Island
he could pass the zone guards. The
card was obtained by Levy three weeks

and had since used the card to avoid
arrest.

DINNER FOR !.
KING GEORGE
WAS NOTABLE
British and French Pre-war
Friendship Has Turned
Into Alliance.

Paris, Nov. 29.-The dinner given
to King George at the Elyze Palace
last night by President P~oincare, the
Paris newspapers declare, was n OF
the most notable events in the his
tories of Great Britain and France.
President Poincare, in toasting
Great Britain, recalled the, agreement
made between the two countries IN
1904 and the efforts of both Great
Britain and France to avoid war in
1914. He declared hat Great Britain
by her naval, military and moral eff
fort during the war. had added an
Incompatible chapter to her splendid
history. He praised the work of the
British army and the efforts of the
British navy, concluding:
1.-The pre-war friendship has
changed into an active alliance which
will find in the peace negotiations a
new utility. We have suffered to-
gether and won together and are
united forever"
King George expressed his great
pleasure in being in Paris, the capital
of the country with which he and his
people had shared the misfortunes as
well as the victories of war. He re-
called the vain efforts of the Ger
mans to capture Paris and the final
triumphant campaign of the Allies
under the direction of Marshal Foch.
Both nations. he added, had struggled
for civilization and right and had
learned to appreciate each other. and
he hoped that the union of hearts and
interests resulting from the war,
would always aid to the maintenance
of peace. He also paid tribute to
Frances heroic dead and toasted the
future happiness and prosperity of
the French people.

Washing Won't Rid
Head of Dandruff

The only sure way to get rid of dan
druff is to dissolve it, then you destroy
it entirely. To do this, get about four
ounces of ordinary liquid arvon; apply
it at night when retiring; use enough
to moisten the scalp and rub it in
gently with the finger tips. .
Dc this tonight. and by morning,
most if not all, of your dandruf will
be gone, and three or four more zap
plications will completely dissolve and
entirely destroy every single sign and
trace of it, M matter how much dan
druff you may have.
You will find, too. that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop at
once, and your hair will be fluffy,
lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and
look and feel a hundred times better.
You a get liquid arvon at any
drug store. 1t is inexpensive and
never fails to do the work.

blown out of the way.
Brigadier General Brice P. Disque,
whose headquarters are in Portland,
Ore, and who had charge of the
army's task in the Pacific northwest
of getting out timber, spent a great
deal of time at the big job near here.
many towering mountains along the
line have been named Disque after
the officer.
The main line of the road starts
about two miles west of Joyce, which
is west of here. The road runs in a
general westerly direction of a
terminus at Lake Pleasant. The line
is all standard gauge. One hundred
and fifty miles of logging roads were
planned to radiate from the Lake
Pleasant terminus. The Disque end
is connected with the Chicago, Mil
Waukee and St. Paul railway.
Now that airplane spruce is no
longer needed by the armies over
seas, the road may be completed and
used to open up not only the great
timber tracts but also a rich and ex-
tensive agricultural section. The coun-
try has possibilities along dairying and
farming lines. There are very few of
the many rich valleys in the Olympics
being cultivated. Plans call for the
movement of 1000, 900 feet of logs a
day owe the road when it was run
ming full blast.
NO definite announcement has been
made regarding the future of the
road. Possibly some Of the big trans
continental roads may take it over.
Late dispatches said the government
probably would complete it.
