LAST APPEAL LOST
BY Mr.. STILLMAN
Action of Appellate Division,
However, Does Not Mean
End Of Fight.

Mrs. Anne u. Stillman won another
victory yesterday when the Appellate
Division of the Supreme Court i'm
Brooklyn unanimously confirmed the de-
cision of Justice Seeger refusing to set
aside Justice MorschauseTs confrma-
ton of the report made by Referee DAN
lei J. Gleason. This report held that
Mrs. Stillman had not been proved guilty
of misconduct and that her youngest
son Guy was legitimate.
Counsel for Mr.. Stillman stated later
In the afternoon that there would be
but that this does not mean that Still
man will abandon the fight 1t is not
known yet just what line future action
will take.
The Appellate Division holds that the
only matter which was before II for
decision was whether Justice Mors-
chauser had jurisdiction to determine
the motion. There was unanimous opin-
ion that the jurisdiction was unques-
tionable. The decision was made by
Presiding Justice Blackmar. with the
concurrence OF Justices Rich, Kelly,
Manning, and Young.
In their efforts TO upset Referee Glea-
sons report Stillman's counsel had ap-
piled to Justice Tompkins for an order
setting aside the report and granting
judgment in Stillman's favor A hear
ing on this motion was set, but before
the hearing was held Justice Mors-
chauser signed an order confirming the
referees report. 1t was upon this
ground that appeal was taken to the
Appellate Division.
