DIVORCE DAY IN WESTERLY H&yway Wife Granted Decree From North Stonington Man —Three Other Wives and Two Aggrieved Hibands Freed From Misfit Mates—Decision Reserved in Priesler- Taylor Case—Mitchell and Greene Put on Probation— Local Guardsmen Do Well in Severe Test. Judge Daéius Baker in the superior court fo# Washington county gave a l=aring Wednesday on the defendants’ deypurrer to pfintiff’s declaration in the cape of Gretchen Priesler against Emma D; Taylor, executrix. Decision was reserved for the filing of authori- ties, after hearing the arguments. This is a civil action brought to recover $20,000 from the estate of the late John \A. Taylor, formeriy of New York, whotdied in Westerly sev- eral years ago. Mr. Taylor endorsed three notes, each of $4,000, payable to the plaintiff in this case, each to run for three years. Mr. Taylor dled in April, 1908, gnd the first of these notes did not become due until about a month after he died. Mrs. Taylor qual- filed as executrix early in June of that Year and a few days later the second note became due. The third note be- came due in December of that year. In each case, it was claimed in the declaration, the notes were unpaid and went to protest, and notice was sent to Mr. Taylor, though at the time he was dead. Not until November, 1911, more than three years after the execu- trix gave notice for the presentation of claims against the estate, was this claim filed 'in the Westerly probate court.

Agard of West- erly, while Judge Nathan B. Lewis argued the case for the defendant. The demurrer was based on the ground that no preper notice of the protest of the notes was ever given and farther that the claim against the estate was not fileq until long after the time fixed by the statute of limitations expired, and no sufficient cause had even been shown for the delay. In reply to Judge Lewis, Mr. Stern- | berg declared the statutes of New York with respect to notice to. in- dorsers on protested notes hgd been complied with, and this would be shown to the satisfaction of the court. Regarding the delay in filing a claim, he said, the plaintiff first endeavored to collect in another way, so as not to call on the indorser for pay, and cited long litigation in which these notes became a part, in an estate of over a million dollars. He said that the plaintiff relied on other funds to pay these notes until it was found that these funds were insufficient to pay. He argued that the proceeding came within the meaning of the stat- ute of Rhode Island, which seeks to provide a remedy for the filing of claims against an estate after the time limit fixed by law, where much ydelay is caused by unforeseen circum- | stances. ] —_— Divorce was granted, on ground of neglect to provide, to Ethel Nothe Lee, teacher, from Stephen A.

Washington, Nov, 20.—The fact that price tables used as the basis for the bureau of corporation reports and now offered in evidence at the “examiner's hearings in the government's suit for. the dissolution of the United States Steel corporation were compiled from a trade journal was made the gist of the cross examination today of Dr. Francis Walker, deputy commissioner of corporations, before Examiner Hen- ry P, Brown.
