TRANSACTION OF THE
LATE JUDGE HANDLEY
It is n Subject of a Dispute Now Before
Court.
SHARP PRACTICES ARE ALLEGED
The trinity Improcmcnt Compnii) of
Winchester. Vn., ami the Liquify
Improvement Company of Scriiuion
Aro riclitliij; (OCnsn Stntcd Arising
from the Snlo of tlio llundlo) Illoeli
-Other .Mutters In Armiiiicnt Court.
Whether or not tho late Judge John
Hundley was guilty of Bhntp practices
to put It mildly In his dealings with
the Equity Inipunemont company of
Winchester, Va., Is a question that was
submitted to the local colli t estoiday.
The matter was pi esented In the form
of a case stated between the Equity
Inipioeinent company of Seranton ami
the Equity lmpiovement company of
Winchester, with Messrs. Palmei nnd
Amui man as attornejs for tho local
company, the plaintiff and Attorney
JohnI Williams, of Winchester, tepie
sentlnff the Virginia cot natation, tho
defendant. Mr Ameiman aigued the
case for ills side. Mr. Williams pio
scnted the defendant's cause In an elub
oiato bi lef, foi warded liv mall.
The Hjndley block, comet of Wyom
ing avenue nnd Spruce stieet giveu ilse
to the contention The Equity lmpiove
ment of Winchester, In which Judge
llandley owned He-sixths of tho stock
nnd of which he was piesldent, bought
this pioperty for .'H.'.OOO. The concern
became impoverished and at Judge
Handler's suggestion concluded to dis
pose of tho piopeity In oidet to liquid
ate Its indebtedness At a meeting of
the tlhectois the judge was nuthoiized
to hell the piopeitj for twenty-ihe per
cent, less than was paid for It. Soon
after this Judge Handley went to Win
chestei and infoimed tho company
there that ho had sold the pioperty
for the price they had fixed, $lGS,?f.O,
to the Equity lmpiovement company
of Seranton, undei ceitaln conditions
contained in a bond, w h'lch bond how -uvei
he did not pioduce, aveirlng that
he had not hi ought It along with him.
The Vliglnla company by lesolution
ratified the sale, without the piecau
tltm of Infoimlng Itself of the condi
tions of the bond, lelvlng, as is stated
In the hi lef, upon Judge Handley 's In-
tegilty and the presumption that he
would not do am thing to injuie the
Interests of a company in which he was
almost the sole ownei.
BOND NOT SATISFACTORY.
Aftei Judge Hnndley'.s death his exec
utots came across the bond and pio
ceeded to enfotce a compliance with Its
piovlslons. These piovlslons weie, to
tho minds of the Winchester people, un
fali nnd Inequitable, and for this leason
and the discoveiy that Judge Handley
wns himself the Equity lmpiovement
company of Scianton, being piesldent
and ov nlng all but four shaics of stock,
thev lefused to accept the piovlslons of
the diabtic bond ami hence the suit.
In a nutshell the Winchester people
claim that Judge Hnndlej sold a piop
eity for a company In which ho held
lle-dths of the stock to a company
in which he held all the stock and by
making the tarns of the sie Immeas
uinblv fa voi able to the latter com
pany hint himself a little that he might
benefit himself much. The brief does
not mince wotds but openly nveis that
while acting In the capacity of double
flduclni y he was guilty of fiaud and
deceit.
The answer made by Mr. Amctman
to these allegations is thnt the company
had eveiy oppoitunlty of acquainting
Itself with the terms of the bond, bofoie
it latlHed the sale; that nfter It did
leain of the bond's piovlslons It took
no steps to lepudlate tho sale 01 ob
ject to the teims and that the objec
tions offeied now are solely for the pui
pose of continuing; their enjoj ment of
the proceeds of the sale without living
up to the agieement under which the
sale was made.
The amount over which the dispute
ailses is $15,000, lept evented by coupons
on the bonds given oilglnally by the
Winchester company for the Hundley
block. Judge Handley's stipulations
as to how these coupons should be as
sumed Is where the alleged sharp piac
tlces come In, the Wlnchestei people
believing that they 'were lid of tills le
sponslblllty when the sale wns made to
the Seranton company, but It develop
ing later that they aie made to assume
them.
NEW TRIAL WANTED.
The tulo for a new trial In the case of
W. C. Tunstall against Joseph F. Uau
melster and otheis, was aigued by Mi.
Hamilton, lepiesentlng the defendants.,
who nie the petitioners, and Mr. Ross,
1 epresentlng Tunstall. The case glows
out of the dlstuntlon of the Sons of
America Printing company. The pa
per was pi inted at the Providence Reg
ister plant. When the company de
cided to give up the management of
the paper It turned it over to J. U.
Hopewell In pavment for what was ow
ing for pilntlng, believing, as Is al
leged, that Mr. Hopewell was the own
er of the Piovidencc Register Mr.
Hopewell says he is not the owner of
the Register, but that W. C. Tunstall
Is, and Mr. Tunstall seconds the asset -tlon
by coming In with a bill' of $319
for the pilntlng of the Sons of Ametlea.
He won the suit and now a new
trial Is asked for on the ground that
the coutt ened in several instances,
but pattlculnily In not admitting as
evidence a campaign cltculai beating
John U. Hopewell's poi trait, the an
nouncement that he Is a candidate lor
nuditoi und the statement among othei
things that he Is the piopiletor und
editor of the Providence Register.
Other cases aigued weie: Jacob
Plecher against Scianton Tinctlon
company, lulo to stilke oh" non-suit,
John Myeis against E. Pi Ingle and oth
eis, lule for new tilalj A. E. Botteily
against Henty Chappel and othets,

AMUSEMENTS.
That tho theater-going public hank
er nfter melodrama Is evinced by the
reception accorded "The Land of the
Living" wheiever It Is piesented. It
belongs to that class of plays that ap
peals to the masses, and Is leplete with
pathetic and humoious Incidents while
the climaxes and scenic effects aio
thillllng and novel Indeed it easily
takes lank with the best of Finnk Hni
vev's vvuiks which Includes the "Wages
of Sin," "Ui othei for lit othei" and
"Shall We Foigivo Her." The scenes
of the plnj are laid In the diamond
llelds of Afilcn and In London. It will

stiirlng acts, all of which nie well
staged Numetous dancing and slugg
ing specialties ate Intioduced in the
Hi st, second and fouith acts. They
aie veiy entertaining and the play it
self Is spirited in action and healthy
in sentiment."
The sale of seats opens this morning
fot the engagement of the fatuous
Spooner Comedy company, w hlch takes
place at the Frothinghnm all net

ton bitthday matinee on Monday, pte
sentlng at the matinee "The Judge's

011 Washington's. Birthday, Monday,
reb. 22. In "Other People's Monify" Mi.
Leioyle will play a somewhat eccentilc
chaiactcr pait. He will be a Chicago
boaid of tiade man with a ban el of
money, who Is foi ever on tho lookout
for any kind of chance to add to his
millions. He will not appeal to the sym
pathies of the audience, but to their
sense of humoi. Thete will be a dash
ing young fellow, bilmful of magnetism
and neive, veiy ptopetly to be imper
sonated by Percy K. Bowles w ho woiks
for the milllottalie board of ttade man
and makes lov e to his daughter. Know -lng
that lie cannot win the fathers
consent by dltect attack, he tries strat

tunny In pi Int. but this ceitalnly piom
Ises to play well.

The Japs' cleft fingers never
work to better advantage than in
decoiating china. And the cheap
living and low wages makes it pos
sible for them to Uuu out more
beauty for less money than Euro
pean china makeis. Maybe that's
the reason these goods are so cheap,
but we strongly suspect that our
buyer, who is now in New York,
has done rather better than usual.
Here are some of the things he's

Crumb Brush
and Tray

these before,
and sold them

I lol1 Will the 200 last that go Oil
sale today, witn tlie price hxed at
15c. for Tray and Brush both?
Cups and There's many a
Saucers fifty-center In the
lot that came today.
But our buyer sends us word that
we can sell them for a quarter. So
we give you the
Choice of the lot today for 25c.
Bon-Bon Some unusual val-
Dishes ue in tlleie Pretty
little bits of china
are here for youi choosing today.
More for the money we've never
seen, tin ee styles and prices,
5C, 79c and Si.oo.
There's a host of other items
of which we've no 100m to tell.
Come and see the lot. It's worth
