Mr., Cohen said he paid S4,250 TO

him four jobs which Mr.. Cohen had
got or could have got for himself.
Mr.. Cohen said he went to Brin-
dell's office on Oct. z, 1920. He said
that when he arrived Brindell asked
him for $4,000 Cohen said he told
Brindell that was too much money
and paid him $4,000. This, accord
ing to Cohen, WAS for permitting
work to go on at the Hotel Man

The croSs-eXamnatlOn OF Mr.. Cohen

CONTESTS
WILL OF AUNT Who
WE'D FAKE BARON
John Even of YonkerS EX-
cluded From 100000 Estate
ofWoman Widowed Cats.

Contest of the will OF Maria Louise |
Even by her nephew, John Even, a |
Yonkers lawyer, excluded when his
aunt devised her 100000 estate began |
before Surrogate Foley today Arthur
c. Train, a former Assistant District |
Attorney, counsel for the executors
told OF the love Of the three Even
sisters for cats and of Maria Louise's
romance with fake" German Baron.
The aged woman was married TO
Baron" Lieut.. Won Koenitz in 1909
and when the then Warden of Sing
Sing exposed the Baron as a fake and
a criminal was loath to leave her hus-
band because ''she was so proud Of
being married" She finally consented
to have the marriage annulled and
resumed her maiden name.
The Baroness" Attorney Train
told the court, was one of the three
daughters of Gen. John Even, who
fought with distinction during the
Civil War. She was introduced to
her husband, he said, by a lecturer,
and, yielding TO his batteries, was
married To him, gave him $4,000, and
went for her honeymoon TO St
Augustine, Fla.
Mr.. Train described the Baroness
as a small old lady, fond of dressing
in gdrlish clothes, which, be said, gave
her a grotesque appearance, and very
responsive to masculine flattery. b.
we'll could the bogus Baron flatter, he
told the court, that when Maria Lou
iso returned TO New York she came
with the intention of sending to him
$500, 900 in securities which she kept
in the New York Trust Company
Her sisters, he said, by stralagen
prevented this.
When the Baroness returned tC
her husband in Florida she discov
cred he had employed some of thu

RESENTMENT GROWING.
State Department Fears Situ-

Effect on Trade.

Especial Correspondent oF The
Evening WORLDLY


WASHINGTON, Jan. 20 Copyright,
192D.-Europe's outspoken attitude
toward n now association OF nations
as revealed in the cablegrams OF tho
last twenty-four hours has made a
profound impression here upon those
who believed it would be easy work to
scrap tho present League and lure
European powers into any interna-
tional organization proposed by the
United States.
What the European correspondents
have suddenly begun sending is no
accidental discovery Of the true state
bf Burope's feeling. because diplo-
mats here have known that a cool
moss toward the Harding proposals
was sprlnging up. But what has
happened Is the beginning Of a series
OF warnings by Europe to America
that as between the hard and fast
alliance which at present Is so closely
interviewer with tho Treaty Of Var-
saddles and a now association which
resembles tho Hague Conference and
commits America to no obligations
whatsoever, obviously Europe would
prefer her ALLIANCE.
The writer finds the Department Of
state naturally upset by the turn
things have taken, for tho fear is
expressed there that resentment
against the United States will grow
and will hurt American opportunity
TO do business in foreign markets be-
cause on every side there Will be
discrimination. But Gin the Depart
ment OF State sits the Democratic
Administration where the Wilsonian
viewpoint is reflected, 50 the true
value Of Europe's significant state

citation OF nations must be founC

All these developments are reaC

France and Germany and Great Brit.
ian are considering an agreemen
on the method Of paying indemnitiet
so that an economic unit may b.
created on the continent OF Europ
and thus diminish the requirement
OF goods that might otherwise hav
been bought from the United States
The questions are no longer polltica

who want to see Americas foreig

BEET SUGAR INDUSTRY NEEDS
NO PROTECTION.

SO far as the beet sugar interests are
concerned, the Federal Trade Comnis-
sion report of Nov. 15,. 1920, throws
light on the profits of the beet sugar
companies and shows how little jus-
ufioauon there Is for the yelp of gov
ernmental relief which these people
are putting up now.
The report says: AS has already|
been stated, the average price at
which the aggregate sales OF the
thirty-one beet sugar companies uu-
der consideration wore made, from
the opening Of the campaign TO March
! l. 1920, was Sll.2I per hundred pounds.
