CARMEL. n. Y, Sept % (Associated
Press) James A. Stillman, former
president of the National City bank of
New York, was denied decree in his
suit for absolute divorce against his
wife, Annie Z. Stillman, in the findings
of Referee Daniel j. Gleason, which We're
filed here today. Baby Guy Stillman
was declared legitimate. ..-
The referees deciison was a complete
and sweeping victory for Mrs. Stillman.
The referee also confirmed her charges
that Mr.. Stilman had misconducted
himself with Florence II. Leeds, former
Broadway show girl, and that Mrs
Leeds had borne two children.
The referee wrote that the testimony
that Mrs. Stillman misconducted herself
with Fred Beauyais, part Indian guide
''uncontradicted and unexplained" was
sufficient to justify him in, believing
Mrs. Stiilman guilty. "A careful exam
ination. however, of all the testimony. -
said his report, has shaken my faith
and belief in the testimony of the wit

It was to pass on this circular letter
that the informal meetings Of repre-

The letter. which Is signed by Kuhn.

forming the protective committee. says
in part:
"The net earnings OF the Brooklyn

terest on the $22.967.000 OF underlying
bonds resting on the elevated lines and
on the receivers certificates and other

'The receivers comptroller reports
that If It had been possible 70 havo kept
together the Brooklyn Rapid Transit
Company's system OF subway. elevated

the receivership the present net earnings
of the system would be moro than suffi-
