Stilt leaking the full performance of
an ante-nuptial contract. entered into
between the late Glover Sanford, of
liridgcwater, and later of Bridgeport.
and his fiancee, Sarah M, Smith, of
Bridgawater, November 11, mos. has
been instituted In the civil superior
court by Grace A. Mower. of Bridge:
water. administratrix on the estate of
the late Sarah M, Smith Sanford.
against Charles H. Sanford. of Bridge-
port, administrator on the estate of
the late Glover Sanford. 'lhe suit
seeks payment of $1,000 alleged to be
due Mrs. Sanford's estate under the
contract. 'The case is returnable to
the November term of the court.
The complaint sets out the ‘contract
made between Glover Sanford and
Miss Smith, and the trouble seems to
be over a misunderstanding as to the
exact meaning of the contract. The
document itself avers that in view of
the “contemplated marriage" of Mr.
Sanford and Miss Smith, the bride to
he, enters into an agreement that in
view of Mr, Sanford's binding himself
and his heirs to provide her with the
payment of $1.000 annually after his
death .as long as she should remain his
widow, that site, on her part. will re-
linquish all claim to a dowcr right
in his estate, after his death.
The document was signed by Glover
Sanford and Sarah M, Smith, in the
presence of Frederick S. Sanford and
Francis lves."l‘he complaint states that
after the signing of the contract. that
Mr_ Sanford and Miss Smith were mar-
ried, and lived as husband and wife un-
til May 31, 1878, at which time Glover
Sanford died. .
The widow, in accordance with the
terms of the agreement she had enter-
ed into made claim for her annuity of
31. 000. and shortly after the death of
her husharid. she was paid a sum on
account theflnal amount being paid to
her on or about the second day of June,
l87il. Thereafter. the complaint states.
81,000 was paid to Mrs, Sanford, on or
about the second day of June in each
year. up to and including June it. 1902.
Mrs, Sanford died on January 30.
1903, but up to the time of her death
no sum of money on her annuity for
the year had been paid to her. it is
inst there that thc misunderstanding
arises, the administrstrix on the estate
of Mrs. Sanford claiming that accord-
ing to the terms of the contract the
sum of 81.000 should have been paid in
advance. each year, instead of at the.
expiration ,of the year. The adminis
'rator of the Glover Sanford estate evi-
dently takes a different view of the
matter, for the complaint alleges that
although there is due a sum to the
estate of Mrs. Sanford. under the con-
tract. the defendant refuses and ne-
glects to make any further payment
The plaintiff claims damages of $1.-
000. The suit is brought through At-
torney C. K. Bush. of New Haven. The
defendant is represented by Attorneys
Stoddard, Marsh It. Boardmon. of
Bridgeport. The late Mrs, Sanford
was a sister of Mrs, Charles 8. me~

CUT iN Two BY TROLLEY CAR.
Motorman Says Man Was
A‘cross Tracks.
David L, Palmer. who was killed by
a trolley car in Mlanus, Friday night.
was a brother of Alexander S, Palmer,
a well-known ship cauiker, of East
avenue. The Stamford Advocate of
Saturday printed the following acount
of the accident.
“David L, Palmer, well known about
Sound Beach and Mlanus. was killed
about 8 last night by an east-bound
Greenwich Tramway car near the real-
dence of Isaac Ferris on the Post
Road between Sound Beach and Mi~
anus. The motorman of the car states
Lying
that the man was lying across the ._
tracks, and it was impossible to see
-.him before the car was a few feet in
front of the body. Palmer's friends
'and relatives are not inclined to ac-
cept the statement. and says that the
ibotorman must be mistaken. They
Moot think of any reason why Palmer
shtmld be lying across the tracks one
rainy night. The motorman. however.
is quite sure that the man was lying
across the tracks when the car struck
him The body was cut almost in two
and death was instantaneous. The
distance from the point where the
man was struck to the point where
the car came to a stop was measured
and was found to be 125 feet. The
body was dragged a considerable part
of. this distance. it was taken to the
undertaking establishment of Isaac L.
Mead in Greenwich and was examined
by Medical Examiner L. P. Jones. .
"David Palmer was a painter He
was wor as the past week in dep-
ltng Pond. Most of the old time resi
debts of Sound Beach, Milnus and
illiversida knew him well. He was
about 60 years hid. His wife died some
time ago and his only child is a

Acting Commissioner of internal
Revenue J. C, Wheeler has made a
ruling that the exemption from
special tax granted“ to a wine manu-
facturer by section 3.246 revised
statutes, does not afford him any pro
tection from the consequences of soil-
ing his wine in violation of the laws
of his state or the local ordinances
Another ruling is that reversion: in
estates, reported on returns prior to
July 1,1901 are held to be taxable.
pending the decision of the courts, if
vested prior to Jilly 1,1902.
The acting commissioner says that
where a distiller makes over to his
son his distillery and the distilled spir-
its thereiu, he does not thereby be-
come involved In special-tax ability

Still 'another ruling is that where
warehouses for cold storage' of also

leave their orders, special tax is not
required to be paid therefor. nor ape
