Judge Finn's Ruling Upheld By High Court
Prudential Life Insurance Company to Pay Damages
 of $l,2l7.67 to Mary Podzunas of Waterbury

against the Prudential Insurance co. of America and Charles Popikas, ad- ministrator of the estate of Kazi- mera Rameikis. There were two ap- peals from the decision.
 '.' Plaintiffs Case
 One appeal was that of the plain- tiff, from Judge Finn's ruling that from the $1,2l767, the insurance company was to retain $200 for ex- penses in the litigation, that she pay the court costs, and the failure ot the court to allow her interest or the face value of the policies. The other appeal was that of Popikas from the judgment for the plaintiff
 Justice Jennings states that "Sec- ton 591l places the question of court costs and an allowance in the dis cretion of the trial court. The evil dence Is not printed and we cannot say from the finding that that dis cretion was abused" The insurance company filed an interpleader, ask ing the court which of the contest ing parties was the proper person to be paid in consideration of the poll icies.
 Interest, in a case of this kind, is allowed on the theory that money has been wrongfully retained" the decision continues. It points out that the insurance company was directed to "hold said money" subject to court action, and such delay in pay ment did not constitute a wrongful delay.
 Rameikas, whose wife died March 8, 1885, was first cousin of the plaintiff, and he called her sister Before leaving for Lithuania, after his wife died, Rameikas assigned the policies to the plaintiff, in consider ation of advances of money.
 Pay My Sister
 He did so by writing in the prem ium receipt book, ITO the Prudential ins. Co. Eff any ting hapen to me Pay Same to my Sister Mary Pod zunas.
 "Kazimera Ramekis his mark
 The assignment was witnessed by Samuel .Ricciardi, agent. The court found that all the error and con- fusion existing between two of the policies were due to the improper receipts given to the plaintiff by the defendant company's agents and to faulty or lax bookkeeping on the part of the company's collector, dis trict office and home office. Attor- neys Michael V. Blansfield and Har- ry M. Albert appeared for Mary Podzunas, Atty. Albert w. Hummel for Popikas and Atty Ulysses G. Church for the company.

Judge, chairman of the economy committee of the board of finance. were questioned by various aldermen in regard to the shtxtage, and both said 1t had been called to their attention only a short time ago, though 1t was discovered in April.
 Taken This Year .,.-
 The money missing was allegedly taken this year, according to MT. O't,onnor and MT. Judge, though cal Her reports had been that 1t was missing from the 1897 accounts.
 Funds for the 1938-30 audit were voted by the aldermen after an ir- foi mai discussion of the situation while meeting as committee of the whole. The boards vote provides that when the 1887 tax audit, now underway, is completed, the auditors shall then make the 1889 audit. Then on completion of that, they will make the 1888 audit. This procedure was voted after the statements that tho shortages took place this year.
 The audit will be conducted by Griffenhagen & Associates. whose auditors uncovered the $1,800 short- age, and whose equipment is on hand at the tax office. Investigat- ing officials have absolved Tax Col lector William A. Ennis Of any con- nection with the shortage
 Three Checks Involved
 MT. O'Connor, asked to explain the situation to the aldermen, said that the only evidence uncovered by the auditors thus far shows that three checks. for & total of $500, were received at the tax office and deposited, but the money was not credited to the accounts of the three taxpayers, though each was given a receipt
