Fifteen hundred dollars was the
judgment rendered in Superior court,
yesterday afternoon, aaginst George
\‘l'ishart, prominent in Broadway cir-
cies and father of the late Spencer
{\Visliart, far~famed automobile driver
511110 was killed in an auto race at
lndianapolia. _
The judgment was the outcome of
a conference between lawyers for
both sides. When the attorneys re-
turned to the court room, they told
Judge Webb that the matter had been
amicably settled. Wishart had agreed
to pay a judgment for 81,500, provid»
ing he. would be given two weeks‘
n0llt‘t' before execution was taken.
Failed to File Accounting.
The suit was the outcome of Wis
hart's‘failure to file an account as
administrator of the estate 01' Phoebe
Lyon. of Greenwich. Wishart was ap-
pointed administrator of the estate in
1911 When he failed to file an ac-
counting the estate brought action
against him and the Fidelity and De-
posit t‘ompany, of Maryland, who act»
ed as his bondsmen.
Thomas S. J. Conway, a lawyer
from New York, was the only witness
to take the stand in the. case. He
testified'to making an inventory of
the Lyon estate which showed there
was $1,500 due. the estate. A Judg-
ment for 81,500 and costs. he said,
would be satisfactory.
Prominent Here and Abroad.
Wishart has been prominent for
years, both in this country and
abroad. He has traveled extensively
and among other things has been
presented to members of the royalty
of Europe. His son, Spencer Wishart,
dare-devil automobile drivers of his
time. Wtahnrt is also the father of
the wife of llar'io Rests, who has
made marvelous records on his
Sheepshead Bay track since it was

SCHOOL BOARD MEMOERS.
Question of Eilgihlllty of I. J. Roy-

The question brought up by (‘ity
(‘lerk Stephen Dokus, in last night's
meeting of the Board Estimate. in
regard to the qualiuation of members
of the Board of Education, has again
called up the old' problem. as to
whether the latest member of tho
should
have been appointed by the Board of
Education or the (‘ity Council
Tire Board of Muration. believing
1" to be within its power to appoint
awarded the 335 prise offered by Prof. :iia own members. has officially ap
pointed and accepted Mr. Reynolds as
pears to be a legally qualified mem-
her. I 1 1 “‘1“
0n the other hand Corporation Coun-
,sel Lockwood was ‘of the opinion that
he (‘lty Council had the power to ap
point members of the Board of Educa-
tion. and should therefore. have ap-
pointed Mr. Reynolds 11 member of the
if this is the case, from the
statement issued by the. clerk. last
evening, in that he had sent to the
Secrt tnry of State, only eight qualified
names, then the action of the Board
101‘ Education has been overrtrle1l.and
Mr. Reynolds is not qualified 1.1 siton
the board.
Mr. Reynolds now sits on the board
as a member, but the compromise ef-
fected at the time of his appointment
was. that he should not vote on ques-
tions brought before the board. it
therefore appears, at present, that M.r
Reynolds is not exactly a qualified
mentber, and that eight, members only
are qualified, as was stated by the
clerk.

The borers who will make the trip
front this country to Argentina to
compete in a series of bouts in BuenOs
Alres will find conditions governing
the contests there considerably dif-
ferent froth these existing in North
American rings. According to the
regulations, which are to be made
part of the contracts, the pugilists
will not receive the sums stipulated
in their arrangementa,-\unleaa the
spectators are thoroughly satisfied
with the contests. ,,
While boxing is still far from an
established institution in Buenos
Alres. the city authorities have cer-
tain ideas regarding the conduct of
the sport, one which is that the put-
lists must give the spectators their
money’s worth. As a result, the prin-
cipals are never paid until those who
bought tickets have signified that
This has been made clear to the box-
ers. who will shortly start for Ar-
gentina, by the explanation that if
the spectators are not pleased with
the efforts of the pugilists their
money is returned to them before
they leave their seats and the con-
testants get nothing.

lteatyweights, Sam Mchy, Joe Jean-

men will be dlawn by lot for the bat-

third place. ,All the bouts will be
twenty-round' contests with 11 ref-
eree‘s decision if they go the—limit.
These bouts will be fought during
Jtily and August and before the
completion of the tournament it is
expected that arrangements will have
been made with Jack Johnson to box
the'winner for the negro title. John-
son is at present in Spain, where
he has figured in two recent bouts,
and it is understood that he has ten-
tatively accepted the proposition to
appear in a Buenos Alres ring.
The promoter of the bouts in Ar-
gentina is an amateur boxer of con-
siderable repute and a man of wealth.‘
lie has, spent several months tour-
ing the various countries in search
of pugilistic talent for the coming
ring tournament. During his recent
trip to France he offered Georges
Carpentier, the French champion.
