Woman in Even Will Contest
Says Rev. Mr.. Nelson Twice
Asked fnr Money

Mrs. Alice Grcnnen, owner OF board
ing house in Atlantic City, was Wit
ness yesterday at the continued hearing
in the Surrogates' Court Of the contest
over the will of Miss Maria Louise
Even, who was for brief period
Baroness" Boto Won Koenitz. !.
Mrs. Grennen said that although
Miss Even affected peculiar styles in
dress when she was guest at the
boarding house of the witness, she re-
garded the testatrix as entirely ra-
tional. John Even. a lawyer, nephew
of Miss Even, is contesting her will on
the ground that she was Of unsound
mind when she made her will and was
under undue influence.
The witness testified further that
when Miss Even came to her house she
was accompanied by the Rev. Aubrey
Percy Nelson, who figures in the con-
tested will as legatee Of $4,000. She
told Of Mr.. Nelson asking Miss Even
for money on one occasion, and weep
ing when Miss Even refused to give it
to him. On another occasion, Mrs.
Grenhen related, Miss Even was i'll
and Mr.. Nelson requested that she give
him $4,000 to tide him over, in case she
died, until he received his $4,000 leg
acy under her will. This request also
was refused, said Mrs. Grennen. and
again the clergyman wept.
The trial will be continued to-day.

lie Calls Photoplay Corpo-
ration Election Illegal;
Will Visit His Mother

Captain Frederick r. Stcll, presiden,
OF the United States Photoplay Cor
poration, who disappeared from the
Offices of the company here more than
month ago, was found in Los Ange-
les last night by The Tribune. He
characterized as ridiculous tile report
that he had mysteriously" absented
himself, and said he had been in con.
.stant communication with the officials
OF mis- corporation. He left Los
Angeles for the East last night, before
learning that his company had elected
new president in his place.
In dispatch to The Tribune CAPTAIN
Stoll was quoted as saying he had tele-
graphed to officials Of the company
early yesterday morning for informa-
tlon as to his "disappearance."
On his way East he will stop off q
few days in Chicago, visiting his
mother, who lives there.
Word reached Captain Stoll Sunday
that the directors of the company had
met for the purpose of choosing 8 sue
cessor to him. He said this procedure
was illegal-that the constitution of the
Photoplay Corporation provides that
director must be absent from three
consecutive meetings before he can be
dismissed from the directorate. The
Captain said he owns 52 per cent of
the stock OF the corporation.
Il Didn't Try to Hide
Captain Stoll said he was at Murieta
Hot Springs, for three weeks and in
Los Angeles until last Tuesday. He
said he has not been trying to hide
and while at Murieta wrote postal
cards and letters to many friends and
the secretary and attorney of the film,
corporation. The Captain said he had
gone to Los Angeles to obtain data re
garding the practicability of erecting
a motion picture studio there and that
his company will be moved to that
city as soon as the lease on the studio
here expires.
Captain Stoll has been succeeded a.
president of the concern by J. W: Mar
lin, of Cumberland, Md, according te
an announcement yesterday at the New
York Offices, 227 West Forty-fftf
Street.

Tobacco Attacked
Miss Buhmann held up copy of hel
paper entitled ''zion's War on Tobacco
She called attention to particular
passage, which read:
Tobacco is Che DEVILS chief instru.
ment for the dissemination of vice in
the human family. Tobacco separates
from God, pollutes the spirit, paralyzes
the mind, wrecks the nerves, stinks the
breath, destroys the body, pollutes the
air, fosters selfishness, corrupts good
manners, impoverlshes the pocketbook
makes men hogs, pleases the devil and
paves the way to hell.n
"That is pretty severe OH tobacco
suggested the reporter.
ut is all true" retorted Miss
Buhmann. 'It was John Alexander
Dowie who was brave enough to cal
tobacco by it's right name Satan's
consuming fire.

"No, we don't expect to fight any
