Louis Ladrigan and others The plaintiffs put on six witnesses in their behalf. W hen their testimony was taken Attorney John Keogh, coun- sel for the defendants, motioned for a non-suit. Judge Howard B. Scott, of the Common Pleas court, granted the motion. “Certainly I'll appeal," said Mr. Hoyt this afternoon, “I‘ll carry the case to the Supreme Court of Errors." The action arose out of Deputy the sessions of an annual gathering oh the New York East Conference isl scarce this year. Nobody is talking‘ and the district superintendents are! . not inclined, it appears. to indicate; any changes ahead of the reading of; the appointments by Bishop Anderson. A piece of the gossip at the Bushwick Avenue-Central M. E. Church, BI‘OOK- lyn, centers about the appointment lul Sheriff D Louis Ladrlgan serving foreclosure papers on Mr. Hoyt. and ramming household effects from the house into the road. The testimony was taken before Judge Howard B Scott, of the Com- mon pleas court. and a jury of 12 men. The defense put on no witnesses.

George Case, of Brooklyn, N. Y.. former secretary and treasurer of the company and Brother- in-law of Edward Austin. president ofa the company, subscribed for $14,000 worth of stock, and paid $12,000 cash, The trustee desiA'es to call for the'payment of the remaining $2,000, and also for $600 from a stockholder named Hallock, a clerk in the office of Mr. Case. The trustee was represented by At- torney Candee. of Norwalk, and Attor- ney Howard W. Taylor, of Danbury, South Norwalk. The defense was that Mr. Case had turned in real estate at under valuation to make up the de~ flciency. The attorneys for trustees claimed that as a matter of law this was no good defense, as the property. in question had been bought for the company, and an individual could not take advantage of the increase in its market value. If the aplicatlon is grant ed 32, 000 more will be brought into the assets of the corporation.
