Manuel Friedlcy lost his hat today
That happened when he tossed it into
the political ring with an announce

election this fall tg the city council to
succeed himself in the first ward
The decision was made only after
pressure had been brought to bear on
him by many friends, according to q
statement made by one of his con-
fidants today.
"One of the chief reasons why

which the city recently purchased
from the Catholic church on East

Wealthy New York Banker is
Denied Divorce. From Wife;
Legitimacy Of Child Proven.
STlLLMAN ATTORNEYS
WILL APPEAL CASE
Plaintiff StiIIman Father of
Two Children by Mrs.
Helen Leeds is Found.

POUGHKEEPSIE, n. Y, Sept. 29.-
(U. P.)-Referee Daniel Gleason to-
day decided the famous Stillman di-
vorce action favorng Mrs. Anne Still
man. Gleason held that baby Guy is
the son of Mrs. StilnEtn and her hus-
band, not of Fred Beauvais, and that
the plaintiff Stillman is guilty of adul-
ferrous intercourse with Mrs. Helen
Leeds, having two children by her.
Referee Gleason recommended that
James A. Stillman be refused di-
rorce from Mrs. Anne u. Stillman.
He gave the evidence on which his de-
ciSion was based as II reason. The
baby Guy is legitimate and therefore
entitled to share the vast family for
tune. He claimed that Stillmans con-
tcntion that Fred Beauvais, Indian
guide, was Guys father, was not prov
en-. Mrs. Stillman did not apply for
divorce and none was granted her
despite the findings that Stillman was
intimate with Mrs. Leeds. Justice
Morschauser will confirm on Deny
Glecson's verdict Stillmans attorneys
are to appear.
Mrs. Stillman went to considerable
trouble to amass the evidence in SIP
port of her claim that baby Guy is Il
legitimate child of herself and James
Stillman. She went on one arduous
trip into Canada to interview Beau
rais. later brought as a witness for
the defense. Gleason saws the Childs
Legitimacy is established beyond a
reasonable doubt. and means that
Stillmans application for divorce be
denied and Guy will share in the six
million dollar trust fund established
by his grandfather the same as the
other children. Gleason found the
plaintiffs misconduct precludes him
from any relief in action while the de-
fendant offered proof to establish
the falsity of the charges brought
against her.
