ASKS CHURCH SALE;
CLAIMS AN OPTION
NeugasS Fixes Value of Structure
at $4,000; Would Erect Apart
ment in Its Stead.


friedrich Neugass OF Brooklyn has
brought suit against the second United
Presbyterian Church. at Bond and Pa
clhc Streets. that borough, to enforce
nm option for the sale OF the church
property to him which he claims to
hold. The price stated in what Mr..
Neugass claims to be an option. was
$4,000. In any event. should he fail In
his desire to obtain the property. he
wishes the church 20 return TO him the
moneys he has expended IN his plan to
change the church into an apartment
house.
The attorneys for the church trustees
to-day obtained In the Supreme Court
an order requiring Mr.. Neugass to furn-
lsh bill OF particulars OF his eNpcndi-
lures. They contend that what he
claims as an option was merely a letter
to him from the Rev. William ". Nichol.
the pastor, stating what he believed TO
be the value of the property. They add
that Mr.. Nichol had no authority to
give an option.
Neugasss attorneys. Mcssrs. Hirsh.
Newman & Reass. said that they be-
lieved the reason the deal never went
through was because the church people
believed the property salable at S24 ,00u.
