Y., Ajril 4— Justice Morschauser in the supreme court here today signed an order directing that psyment of alimony and counsel fees in the divorce pro- coedings brought by James A. Still- man, New York banker, nst Mrs. Anne U. Stiliman be @ within thirty days and that meanwhile referee hearings in the case be stayed. Counsel for both sides agreed that sealed papers in the case, including letters maid to have been written to Mrs. Stilman by Fred Beauvais, In- dian guide, named as corespondent. the alleged ‘confession letter’ Stiliman to her husband, should not be opéned when they are filed in the Putnam county court- house at Carmel. b Defense Openn Fight.

Outerbridge Horsey, representing the' plaintiff, then rose and objected to the serving of the papers without no- tice last Saturday afternoon. Satur- day afternoon, he said, was considered by New York attorneys “dies non." He objected also to the order on the ground that it did not conform to the court's award. The defense, he said, wanted payment within three days of $62,500. Mr. Stiliman, he add- ed, was ready to pay within that time $15,000, or two months' alimony, but desired the remaining $47,600 to spread over installments, the first not to begin before ten days. “The richest man in the worid could not raise such a sum. Within such a short time,” he + Attorneys for Mr. Stillman lso at- tacked efforts by the defense to have the court stay further hearings be- fore the referee in the case until May 17. A provision to thik effect was con- tained in the order served Saturday, and today was attacked as an attempt to “drag in by the ears” a stay of pro- ceedings.

Young W. B. Leeds, who left the United States on March 12 to visit his mother, Princess Anastasia, at Athens, where she had undergone an operation, concluded a rather sensa- tional trip by covering the latter part of the journey by alrplane. Very early in life he was in delicate health, but his mother took him to Switzer- land in 1915, where apparently he added considerable ruggedness to his Dfimul make-up. a is father, Willlam B. Leeds, gied in Paris in 1908. He was one of the' leaders of the tinplate industry in .America, and is reported to have be- queathed to his son a fortune of not less than $7,000,000. Princess Anas- tasia, the ‘boy's mother, was the Jaughter of the late William C. Stuart of Cleveland, from whom she in- herjted $14,000.000.

Ac- cording t0 the Almanach de Gotha the Grand Duke George Michaelovitch was executed in Petrograd in 1919.
