SIX LACKAWANNA
CASES DECIDED
LOCAL JUDGES UPHELD IN
EACH INSTANCE.
Nichols Appeal was One of tho Cases
Tassed Upon It Is Hoped That
This rinally Disposes of the Last
of tho Litigation Growing Out of
the Dr. Hiram Nichols Will Mrs.
Feidiuando Wins in Her Litiga
tion Against tho City Othei Cases
That Wore Decided.
The Supremo court at Philadelphia
yesleiday handed down opinions in six
Lackawanna cases In each Instance
the Judgment of the court of this coun
ty was, sustained.
One of tho most Inipottant, or at
least tho most Intel ostlng of tho six
disposed of, Is tho cel"biated Nichols
appeal. It Us hoped that this llnally
disposes of litigation that has been
before the court for years Tho appeal
wns taken to the Supremo court by
James Nichols, son of the late Dr.
Hltam Nichols, of Claik's Gieen.
When Dr. Nichols died ho made no
provision In his will for his son, James,
and the latter hits since been fighting
the helis. Countless suits of all kinds
hae been the result Dr. Nichols, in
his will left his pioperty to his daugh
ters. Mis. N. S. Davis and Mrs. Mary
Xlmmcrman, and his daughter-in-law,
Mis. Asa Nichols
James brought proceedings to have
tho will set aside and to secure tho
pi eduction of another will which he
said favorod him, but In both instances
ho was defeated.
WANTED A DEED
Then "he asked the court to secuto
for him the deed of a piece of land at
Clark's Green known as the Rose farm,
which consists of forty acres. He al
legi d that his fathct made a deed of
this land and gave It to him, but ho
ufteiwntds gave it back to his father
for safe keeping. After tho lattor's
death the document could not bo found
and Nichols asked tho court to order
another deed made for him.
Judge Archbald decided that the tes
timony did not warrant such action
upon his part and refused to do so.
Theieupon James Nichols took an ap
peal to the- Supremo court During
the recent Lackawanna week at the
Supieme couit the case was argued by
Attorneys Vosburg and Dawson fur
Nichols and Attorney John F. Scragg
for tho estate.
In the equity piocoedlngs of Johanna
Ferdlnando against the city of Scian
ton tho decision of Judge Gunster was
uphold by the Supieme court. Mrs.
Ferdlnando purchased a property on
Ninth stieet, alongside of which was
a narrow passageway that had for
yeais been used as an alley. This she
closed up. Tho city thioatoned to tear
down her buildings and the court wa
asked to lesttaln the dty from such
action. Judge Ounsler made tho In
junction permanent and the city took
an appeal to the Supremo court and
lost The passageway will now lemaln
closed.
THE JURISCH CASE.
In the suit of Jurlseh and othets
against the Steillng Cycle company the
decision of Judge Archbald was upheld.
A W. Jin Itch conducted a .spoiling
goods stoic on Spiuce street und his
stock was disposed of at a 'onstable's
sale, his sisters, Mrs. Cokley and Miss
Jin huh, bicomlng tho ownois tluough
this sale. Tho business was continued
under the name of Juiisch and some
time later the Cycle company loded on
Hie goods to satisfy a claim of $.',K00
against A. W. Juiisch. Mrs. Cokley
and Miss Jui Kill took steps to prevent
this soUuie of their goods, and when
tho ease was Hist tried the juiy ills
agieed. on the second tiial the- vei-dli-t
wns in favor of the women, and
Judge Atohbald letusod a now uiul. An
appeal was taken fiom this decision
and tho Supieme court now sutalns It
When the case was aiguecl nt Phila
