,fIFT' STILLMAN
SCORES VICTORY
IN ALlMONY SUIT
ustice Awards $4,000 a
Year and $35.0O0 as
Fee for Counsel.

NEW YORK. April Mrs. Fin"
stiIIman and Guy. her rs months
I'D son. won easily today the first
court skirmish in the absorbing d.
vorce suit of James A. Stillman.
Justice Morschauser, of the Su-
preme Court. handed down his de-
cision in the alimony and counsel
fees phase.
In brief. Mrs. stillman scored on
.every point.
She has been receiving $4,000 a
: month alimony. asked the court to
allow SIC. 900 and now gets $500
or $4,000 a year4
? She is awarded ss5.oo0 counsel
fees. o
The sum of sI2,5Oo is set aside for
expenses. particularly in defense of
the legitimacy of Guy Stillman.
Letters Ruled Out.
Her lawyers regard Justice Nor
schauser's ruling on letters in the
case as a Knockout" for the bank
er's divorce case. The justice. cit
ing many precedents and legal au-
thorities, ruled Mrs. Stillman's con
fession" letter to Mr.. Stillman Is
not admissible, because il was a
confidential communication from
wife to husband. At the same time,
the justice held Mr.. Stillman can
not introduce the alleged letters
from Fred Beauvais to Mrs. Still
man unless legal grounds are de-
veloped during the progress of the
.actual trial.
Mr.. Stillman's counsel had hoped
through the letters to show that
Mrs. Stillman was unfaithful; that
she had a love affair with a Cana
dian Indian guide, Beauvais, at the
Stillman summer camp in Canada,
and that Guy Stillman is the son
of Mrs. Stillman and Beauvais. None
of the letters. which were sub
D nitted to the court in affidavit form
by Mr.. Stillman and none of Mrs
Stillman's disclosures about his af-
fairs with Mrs. Florence Leeds
became public today.
Not I'm Court Records
1t had been expected that the
documents would be available when
the justice filed his decision. They
were sent. sealed. to Clerk Decker
= OF the court at White Plains. He
was to take them to the court at
carmel, IS miles away, where the
Ohisiudi ulNOFCe ACTION was started.
There the documents were to be for
mally filed and made part of the
court records. As such, they would
be public records.
At the last minute, however JUS
tice Morschauser sent word to hold
the papers At White Plains until
Monday. II seems attorneys in the
case wanted time to think things
over before having the records filled.
and wanted to decide on how
much OF the records should be Civ
en- out. If any. at this time.
With practically every point in
Justice Morschauser's decision con-
strued as being in favor of Mrs.
Stillman, De Lancey NicoIl. attorney
FOR Mr.. Stillman. announced he
would appeal upon the following
/, grounds:
i. That the court allowed excess
sive alimony and counsel fees.
2 That the court Yerred in not
admitting the Attsr as evidence.
TIE temporary allowance to Mrs.
stiIlman at the rate of $4,000 a
year is the largest award ever
made in this State either for tenn
porary or permanent aIimony. In
the case of Mrs. Katherine Gould
against Howard Gould the perma-
nent alimony awarded the wife.

was $4,000 a year.
