FIRM NOT CONNECTED WITH THE BISCHOFF BANK. Albert B. Massey, a son-in-law of the late Justice Heary Bischoff and a direct- or in iechoff's anking House, said this afternoon: “The recelvership has nothing what- eve: to do with tschoff's Banking House. Henry Biechoff & Co. is an infependent concern operating separate from the bank, The bank is @ duly incorporated imatitution under the banking laws of the Sti of New York and was re- cently examined by State officials and found to be in good condition.” Bischoft's Banking House has a {tal stock of $250,000, James 8. Meng is president and August Winkopp, cashier. The directors are James 6, Meng, George Batten, William J, Becker, Frank J. Lieseck!, Adolf Vogel, Herman Winter and Albert P, Manse: ‘The bank was founded in 188 by Henry Bischoff, the father of the late Gupremy Court Justice Bischoff. For many year the bank was located at the corner Tryon Row and Centre street tn the old Staats Zeitung Butiding. When that building Was demolished to make way for the Municipal Bullding the bank was removed to No, 27 Broadway. (Mr, Bischoff died in March, 1902, leaving a fortune of about $260,000, the residue of which was divided among hie four children and several grand- children. His interest in the banking house he left to his son, Henry Bisc- hoff, the Judge, who wae killed last year in tne migrant Savings Bank Building by down the elevator shaft,” ~ ~ Eas To appreciate the convenience and igreat value of the Sunday World’s (Want Directory— READ IT. a The marriage and divorce complicn- tions of Count Bon! de Caatellane and his former wife, Anna Gould, have had what is probably a final decree fn the high ecclesiastical court of the Cath- ollc Church in Romecthe Segnatura tribunal, ‘The marriage is now declared annulled. Numetous questions arise as to the effects of this decree on the marityl statue of the countess, who is now the Duchesse de Talleyrand, and her chil- dren. As nearly an can be figured out, the sequence of events and results a ae follows: Boni de Castellane and Anna Gould were married with both civil and re- Hgtous ceremonies, She secured a di- vorce in Paris by decree of the cuurts, which dissolved the civil marriage. Tho De Casteliane family, as g094 Catholics, hold that there was and could be no dis- solution of the religious marriage with- out decree of the Church. ‘The civil divorce was enough for An Gould, however, and she married Prince de Sagan, who is now by title the Duke of Talleyrand, Their marriage was only @ civil one, as the Church refused to recognize the divorce and would not sive its blessing on the new union. This attitude of the Churca has acted as a social bar In some quarters, par- tloularly at the Court of Austria, where the Talleyrands are entitled to high r cognition, but on account of their lack of religious marriage the Duchess has not been received. At same time, Count Boni, hold- ing fast to the religious tenets, has refrained from contracting any new marriage alliance until the ceremony could be performed by the Church, It was to gain this freedom that he ap- Pealed to the ecclesiastical tribunal for an annulment of his marriage to Anni Gould, divorce not being recognized by the Church. This final decree now enables Count Bon! to marry again with the sanction of the Church, It likewise enables the Duke de Talleyrand and his Duchi to have a religious ceremony p. formed gnd thus give them full social renognition. Under ordinary clrcumatances the an- nulment of & marriage might leave in doubt the legitimacy of the children by puch # union, In the Castellane case it has been clearly set forth during the progress of the Htigation that the three Castellane boys are considered perfect- ly legit rate im the eyes of the Church because they were born at a time when the marriage wan accepted as valid, By decree of the civil courts, these children were given into custody of the mother, with permission for the father to see them at the Christmas holiday easo! The progress of Count Boni's a te the Church for annulment has filled with Involved complications, first application wax on the Anna Gould's consent to a ceremony and other necessu ments before the marriage were in- valid, This application was denied, but later on he renewed the sult, alleging that fresh and additional evidence had been discovered. All related to ecclesi- aatical questions concerning her atti- tude toward religious’ marriage and divorce. On thin second application, the Tribune of the Rota, as the ecclesiastical court in the Vatican is called, handed down a de- cree last spring In favor of Count Boni. Had this second decree of the Rota con firmed the first decree, the dec! would then have been final. But reversed the first decree, Church pro- cedure required a Church offic en: titled Defender of the M Hond, to Intervene and instit 1 Anna Gould, Duchess de peal en Hin Perigord, had lawyers repre: in this appeal, but the case was primarily in charge of the Vatican, The third and final decision, now handed down by the ApostoHe Sexnatura Tribunal confirms the second decree of the Rota and de- clarea the ma’ and Count Bon! de Castellane to be null and vold, PROVER (No. 5.) “Force without fore- cast is of little avail.
