account of one of their small mine
engines getting on a rampage and run

other engines with which It collided In
its wild lllght.
The engine was standing at the
breaker at about 6 o'llock yesterday
morning. Steam was up but there
was no one on the engine at the time.
Suddenly It stalled and was soon
running at a rapid rate. The en

and then enteied the mines. About a
mile fiom the entrance another engine
was standing. The two engines came
together with a crash, badly damaging
both.
In some manner, the reverse lever
became released by the collision
and the runaway engine, which was
not derailed, began at once to back up
and ran to the bieaker ngaln, collid
ing with another engine, which was
also disabled. The runaway was de
railed nnd employes, who were trying
to catch the engine during Its wild
tllght, wore able to shut off the steam.

IN FAVOR OF

A $125,000 SUIT DECIDED BY
JUDOE EDWARDS.

Late'ral Issues Havo Boon to tho
Bupromo- Court Transactions In
volved in the Suit Cover a Poriod
of Thirty Years Property in Dis
pute Is Part of the Griffin Tract.
Othor Court Matters.
In an elaborate opinion, filed yester
day morning, President .ludgo II. M.
Kdwardfl decides In favor of tho
plaintiffs In the famous $125,000 equity
suit of A. D. Ocan, trustee et al.
against n. M. Wlntnn et nl.
The opinion covers fourty-four type
wrlten pages and, as may be Judged,
represents many hours of laborious ef
fort, dealing as It does with a seeming
ly unending sejicei of complications and
Involving every knotty question that
arises In the law of trusteeship.
The parties to the suit are hells' of
several of the oldest families of this
region. The plaintiff Is the tiustee for
the holra of p. S. Dean, and represents
the Interest In the trust estate which
at first vested In Isaac Dean. Two
of the original defendants, V. V. Win
ton and his wife, Catherine "Wlnton
nro now dead. Tho estate of the former
Is repiesentcd by 11. M. Wlnton ad
ministrator, and the estate of of tho
latter by It. M. Wlnton nnd Walter
W. Wlnton, sin vhing cxecutom. The
other defendants aie the Wlnton Coal
company, which leased the property In
dlsp,ute! the Delaware, Lackawanna
& Western Railroad company, and tho
IClk Hill Coal and Iron compnny which
aie mining coal from tho larger portion
of the tract and paying royalties theic
on. The propci ty Is known as tho P. C.
Orlflln tract, contains about fifty acres,
and Is located mainly in tho Second
ward, of this city, near tho old Tripp
homestead.-
It was purchased In 1871, thiity years
ago, for $96,000. A fourth Inlet est in
It Is now held at about $100,000. The
present suit Involves a fourth Interest
nnd a claim on another fourth.
FURHCASEn BY WINTON. .
Tho purchase in 1871, was made by
A. H. Wlnton from 10. S. Osborne,
trustee, nnd four days later, the pur
chaser com eyed It to his father, W.
W. Wlnton. 'The latter, with Isaac
Dean, Joseph Church and Thomas
Llvey, paid the puichase money. Wln
ton took title and later gives the
other three, declarations of tiust.
Wlnton undertook the management
of the property, leae-lng tho coal and
selling the surface. In 1877 he bought
out the Church one-fourth lnteicst at
sheriff's sale. Dean had loaned money
to Church and held a claim against
the Church Intercut.
The Church heirs went Into court,
some years ago with a claim that Wln
ton bought In the Church quaiter as
trustee for Church and not for him
self. They held that AVInton was for
bidden to buy the property for him
self by the law which declares that
ho trustee shall be permitted to pioflt
by his trust. The Supicme court, last
year, decided that Inasmuch as nearly
twenty years had elapsed fiom the lime
of the sheilff's sale to the bringing of
tho suit, the plaintiffs were guilty of
laches, not having used due diligence
In the prosecution of their claim, nnd
consequently not entitled to iccover.
The supreme court however did not
touch upon the question of Dean's ln
teicst In the- Church estate, and .ludgo
Kduards was called upon to deal with
It In this case. He decides that the
Dean hclln have a good claim on tho
Chinch one-fourth.
DKAX CLAIM IS OOOD.
In 1S77, Catheilne AVInton buys nt
sheriff's sale, her husbands one-fourth,
and the Church one-fourth, which her
husband had purchased at the other
sheilff's sale. Judge Edwards declares
that while she (secured the Church one
fourth free from the claim of the
Church heirs, the Dean claim on the
Church one-fourth Is still impressed
upon It, although It has passed to this
other party, Catherine AVInton, and
t-he or her executors must account for
the pioceods fiom tho Church estate
to the extent of the Dean claim against
that one-fourth, ns well as for tho Dean
one-fourth for which her predecessor
was trustee.
The Judge only makes an Intel locu
tary decree, as to who shall account.
The accounting Is to be had later. The
stipicmo court, and If tho decision Is
not disturbed the accounting between
the parties will bo made by the couit
or a master, according to tho findings
of Judge Edwnrds. It may be years
yet before the cabo Is finally disposed
of.
The opinion l wiltten with nn eye
to the convenience of those who will
have to mako excessive use of it. Each
phnse of tho case Is treated under a
separate heading and the various ranil
llcatlons being each accoided a sub
heading. In his Introduction Judge Edwards
says: "Soino of tho mnttois Involved
In this case havo been before our
courts, In ono form or another for
seveial years. The case Itself was In
stituted over thirteen years ago, and
the transactions covered by the evid
ence extend over a period of thirty
years. The parties themselves aio to
blame for the delay. Tho case should
have been pressed to a final hearing
dining the lifetime of the persons most
Immediately concerned In tho Issues.
This would havo saved much trouble
nnd would havo avoided several com
plications. But It Is my duty to take
the record ns It Is now before me,
made up of the pleadings and the
evidence, and dispose of the questions
In dispute. As to the nnture of the
bill, It Is sufficient to state that It
seeks to compel an accounting for tho
proceeds of trust property."
After reviewing tho history of the
case and answering tho leque.sts for
findings of fact, the Judge proceeds In
to the following discussion stating the
proposition of law first and following
It with his conclusions:
1, W. W, Wlnton was a trustee for Isaac

liare of the fromils of the tritdt propfrty which
ame Into the hands of Wlnton.
Cuunsrl on lioth ol'tfs hate dlscussnl at length
the question of resulting trtwt arising from
the pajment of one-fourth of the punhise
money tiy Isaac Dean at the time the property
was purchased. I do not consider this question
now of any Importance. The trust wai tedmed
to writing ami this Instrument is sufficient to
hold Wlnton to the fullest measure of rcspon
nihility as a Irmtre.
2. W. W. Wlnton held the one-fourth share
of Joseph Chiinh In trust, not only for Church,
but for the lieneflt of Isaac Pean and through
him, of the plaintiff, to the estent of the In
dealittdness of Churih lo Isaao Dean as act
forlh In the Chinch declaration of trust ol
Notemher 1, 1S7I, nnd the agreement between
Dean ami Winton of September 1, Wl, and a
like accounting Is due the plaintiff, ol the pro.
cecds of the Church quarter.
IMlcndant's: counsel strenuously object to any
finding which Imposes n trust on Wlnton i to

kmyxoti: ov nmsiov.
The kejnote lo this decision Is the Inexcus
able laches of Church and the Church heirs, but
this should not conclude the rights of Isaac
Dean and bis reprrnlatltes. Dean has not
been guilty of laches. The dechrallon of 1S71 to
Church was in part for the benefit ol Dein.
It Is so written In the Instrument. Again, the
claim of Dean on the Churih Interest Is ex
pressly rcLognlml and affirmed by Wlnton In the
agreement of September 12, 1177, between Dean
titid Wlnton an agreement inneirnlng the scry
fherlrTs sale by which Winton acquired the
Church Interest free, as la contended, from any
trust. I Inow of no reason why this agree
ment should not be considered as a supplement
ary trust writing touching the same property,
and biscd upon sufficient consideration. It was
so considered by Wlnton himself. Nor do I see
any inconsistent- in holding with the supreme
toiirt tint on lucount of lihes the Church
equity has been deslrojed and still hold that
Dean's equity should be prolectcd.
3. The account of the administration of the
tni't property by W. W. Winton In accord
nice with the first finding of liw- should cotcr
the period beginning with the purchase of the
property in 1S71, and ending with h! death,
to wit: December 30, lfi'jl. The account referred
to in the second llndlng of law should cover
a like period. The duly of staling this account
dcolvet primarily upon P. M. Wlnton, admin
istrator cum tesyimenlo annevo of W. W. Wln
ton. It will be neceasary for tho court through
it'etf, or a master, In a futthcr hearing of
this case lo take evidence fiom all sources from
ulilth such evidence may te obtained as to the
account mentioned, and as to other account
ings herein deirccd, so that the trmtactloni
between the parties miy be correctly ascertained
and stated.
It Is the duty of the personal representative
of a deceased trustee to account for his ancestors
Ililrd's Appeal. 3 W. k S. IJ9. While the title
to the land descends to the heir-at-law as a
general rule, the heir as such is not bound to ac
count, cjpeeiilly In a tiut of the character ol
the one now under consideration. I am sur
prised that no application was mule to the
court to appoint a successor to the trust after
Vinton's deitli. Tills may be done in Pennsyf.
vanii. A pontile explanitlon Is that the ccstiila
que trustcnt hate for some scars been receiving
their shire of the proiecils of the trust prop
erty directly instead of through a trustee or
other person of a rppreentatle ilnracler. There
is some ctidence to this effect. It would proh
ablv sated some (Amplications to hate had such
.i trustee appointed.
NOT A THUSTKi:.
I. Catherine Wlnton was not a trustee under
either of the declarations of trust, the one to
Isaac De.in, or the one to Joseph Church.
'Hie plaintiff claims tint beiause In the dee
lir.ttions of trust "W. V. Wlnton and Cath
erine, his wife, rlit hereby certify and declare
that they hold in trust the one
tinditided oiie-fnuith," the wife is therefore a
cotrustee with her husband. Cilherine Wlnton
bid no title whiteter to the trust property. In
the ak-tnee of cjjdcnce we might surmise that
it was thought necessary to hate her Join in
the declarations so as to bir her dower. But
this would only be a surmise, 'ihe mere ftit
of her joining her huslnnd In the exomtion of
the pipers is clearly insutllilint to make her a
trustee. There is no ctldenie that the had
an thing to do with the administralion ur
management of the trust property from 171
to 1P-7, a period of sixteen ear, oxicptlng
that she Joined her luishtnd in tho come.tance
of lots, wbleh is provided for In the declarations
and excepting the further fait tint in IKI she
became a member of tho Winton Coal Compiny,
Limited, owning the majority of the stock, to
whkh company a large part of the trut prop
erly was (onte.tnl in Issx Hating no estate
In the land and parllclpilinz in no way for
many jears. except as stated, in the control
of the property, she was not a co-trustee with
her hu-hind. Considerable stress Is laid by the
plaintiff upon the recital in the deed to Mary
Uross. in whli h sCatherlne Vinton describes her
self as "Mirtlting trustee." This deed was
mide in January, l'0j, less thin a month after
her husband's detth. I enrndder this recital a
trifling circumstance and miy hate been made
by the sirltmer as a mittcr of precaution.
Whiteter the reason was, the fact that she de.
scribed herself as a "mrtiting trustee" did
not make her one In law. The trust was created
bv a deed in 1171 (or Church, and in 1"2 for
Dean. Nothing ooeurrred until January, 1577 to
bring Catherine Winton into connection with the
trust. I therefore cannot flecteo an accounting
by C.ithoilue Winton through her legal repre-aeiilititr-
for the period covering the dates
July. IsTI, to Januarv, ls7. 'I hat he had
knowledge of the trust from the beginning
Is ieond question, but tint i.i another matter
to lie considcicd in the next finding of law.
liilCI!W:n AT HIKIIIt'K'S !m:.
5. Catherine Winton hating purchased the
Church tinditided one-fourth of the trust prop
erty at sherltl'a stle in January, 17, on an
dilution against her huband, he hating pur
chased it at .i sheriff's nlo In fccplcmbcr, 1577,
and the said Catherine Wlnton hating notice
and knowledge of the terms of the declaration
of trust of Notemher 1, 1!"J, in fator ol Church,
and more particularly ol Hie tenefleial interest
of Isiac Pean therein! and she further hating
collected ro.taltles from coal, a ptrt of whlih
belonged to the Church quirtrr and having sold
setertl 6urftco lots and hating collected the
purcine price, tne piainiiu li entitlecito an ac
counting for all mone received by her on tho
Church interest to the extent ol the Indibtcdiiess
of Joseph Churih to Isaac IK'.in, and a decree
should be made dliectlng the evecutois of
Catherine Wlnlon to aciount anordingly.
I hate no doubt that this finding of law Is
the ono most m rloiisl.c contioterted by the repre.
cntatltca of the Catherine Winton estate, be
cause it means tint tho Church tinditided fourth
of the trust property Is Impressed with a trust
in fator of the De.in claim until the Indebtedness
of Churih to Isaac Dean Is fully paid. The
position of tho defense Is that when W. W.
Winton bought the Church interest at sherifl'a
sale In September, 1S77, he tiought it clear, not
only of the Church equity, but of every otlur
equity, nnd that Catherine Winton In 18S7, like
wise acquired tho title unburdened wjih any
prior claim or trust. I cannot artlrm this con
tention. I hate already stated that Catherine
Winton was not a co-trustee with her husband
by reason of her Joining in the execution ol
tlm declarations ol trust to Church and Dean,
but that the acquired the Church interet In
JF57 with full knowledge of Dean'i claim can
not be successfully disputed. The express; terms
of the Church deelaratlon signed by Iter charge
her with inch knowledge, II there were nothing
else In the case, and the recital In the Orosi
deed made twenty-lour yean afterward, fuither
confirms this conclusion.
There li no difficulty with tho law on this
question. It Is well settled,
coNSTRUcrrivi: tiu'sth.
Writers on trusts hate divided and luh
ditldeil the tarlout klmU with tine nnd elabor
ate distinctions. The class known as construc
tive tiusta Is extensively discussed In the text
books. Ccntructltc trusts arise in different
ua, vU., font the wrongful appropriation or
conversion Into a different form of tho property
of another! Irom a conve.tanio or devise oh
taiiuit by fraud; Irom fraudulent repatriations
ol a purchiaer that bo Is purchasing for an
other! from keeping baik valuable information,
and from the acquisition of trutt property by
a purchaser with notice or . volunteer. The
trust In Catheilne Wlnton as lo the Churih
Inlire.t belongs lo the last mentioned class.
Let It be said here tint there Is no question

head and InlllctlnK a sash In the boy's
head and hand.
They wero comliiR down Spruce
street, and when opposite the Col,
Wat res liullfllnr; next to the County
hank, stopped to look Into the window
of the H.ihy Hazaar.
They were standing close together,
the boy leaning aglnst tho window
snail, nnil hnltllnir liln lint In til. ImnH
when tho wind, so It Is supposed, blew
tne Klass from the front lower sash of
the mlddlo window of the bay window
on the tlilid floor, In the apartments oc
cupied by Mrs. Vlckers.
Tho glass struck a ledge or some
other obstruction, It Is believer, before
striking Mrs. Sllkman and her boy,
for she says she heard a crash Just a
Inoment before she was struck. It
flashed upon her mind that It was fall
ing glass, and grabbing her boy at
tempted to get away from the build
ing. Ilcfore nho could make more
than a step tho glas showered down
upon them.
The piece which stiuck Mrs. Sllkman
on the head was likely a large one
as It tore her hat from her head al
though It was held by a pin.
A good sized piece, too, must have
struck tht boy on the head for It
cut nn Irregular three Inch gash
through to the skull. Tho cut ho le
celved on the hand was about two
Inches long. It was on the back of
the right hand at tho base of the
thumb.
The boy wan taken Into the Baby
Bazaar and the flow of blood checked
with towels and cold water. Dr. Mears
was summoned nnd after looking at
the cuts had the boy can led to his
office In the Connell building where he
dressed them.
