ENRIGHT PENSION LOST,
SAYS CITIZENS UNION
Complete Victory Claimed in
Schieffelin Suit.

The Citizens Union yesterday issued
the following statement with reference to
the decision OF the Appellate Division IN
a suit of Col William Jay Schieffelin,
chairman or the Union, to restrain the
carrying of Police Commissioner Enright
on the police pension rolls with a PEN
sion of $3.50 year:
THE opinion of Justice Greenbaum.
expressing the unanimous conclusion OF
the Appellate Division, is q complete vic
tory for the Citizens Union. The de-
cison sustains the Injunction granted by
Justice Finch cnjoining the continuance
of Mr.. Enright on the pension rolls with
a $3.50 pension under the attempted re-
tirement order already made.
The decision goes further. BY its
reasoning. in holding that the Police
Commissioner even under the act OF 1918
cannot be granted a pension. 1t makes
clear that, even when Mr.. Erright leaves
his Office as Police Commissioner, he
may not be retired as sucn on pension.
The modification or the judgment below
is upon an immateiial feature. 1t merely
strikes out SO much as declares the
point Last mentioned in advance OF the
actual attempt to retire Mr. Enright as
Commissioner.

JORRIN IN CONTEMPT
FOR DEBT TO LAWYER
Wife Also Held i'm loan for
$4,000 Made to Them
by McConihee.
PAIR ARE NOW IN SPAIN
Checks Given to Save Sugar
Property Said Not to Have
Existed.
PAIR ARE NOW IN SPAIN

Upon the application of Warren Me-
him $5o,64l and appear to have no in
tention OF paying 1t, Julio dc Sorzano
Jorrin of Havana, Cuba, and his wife.
Virginia Foster Jorrin, were adjudged
in contempt in the Supreme Court yes
terday and a decree entered ordering
them to pay the amount Of McConihee's
claim as a fine.
McConlhee's hope of collecting his
money is contingent upon their ever re-
turning to this country, for. as he told
Justice Whitaker when he made his APP
piication yesterday, the last he heard Of
the pair they were in San Sebastian, the
Spanish summer resort. having been
previously received by King Alfonso at q
reception given in the royal palace in
Madrid. McConihce submitted aflidavits
setting forth that they had attracted
much attention in Havana before going
To Spain. Mrs. Jorrin by her gowns and
entertaining and her husband by his bets
ut the race track and at chicken fights
Jorrin was at one time an attache OF
the Spanish Consulate In this city. Ills
Wife was Miss Virginia Foster OF ST.
Louis, a daughter OF Judge Robert NJ.
Foster of the Circuit Court of that city.
ATcConihee's complaint sets forth that
they obtained the money which they owe
him in the form of a loan after repre-
sentng to him that Jorrin had an in
terest in a sugar plantation in Cuba
which was worth more than $1.0OO.0OO.
The money. he says, was borrowed
in 1919 when Jorrin and his wife had
been mar, led three years and he was
a6 years old ami she 26., They came
10 him, he declares. and told him that
Cuban banks which held their paper
were about to foreclose on the sugar
plantation in order that individuals i'm
1uential in the banks mignt obtain 1t
for fractional part of It's value. Mrs.
Jorrin, whom McConihee Lad known
socially before her marriage and for
whom he had done some legal work,
made most OF the oyertures toward get
ting the loan. Finally it was given to
her and her husband in two checks, one
for $4,000 and the other FOR $4,000.
The amount of the nne imposed yester-
day represents the two sums with in
tercst on them and Legal costs
McConihee's AFFIDAVIT states that the
Jorrins were living at a boarding house
in E'ifty-frst street when he advanced
them the money, but that the day after
they had deposited his cnecks they
moved to the st. Regis. subsequently
fhcy went abroad and toured France,
