DEATH BENEFIT DENIED HUSBAND Judge McPherson Files Opin ion That Cigarmakers' Union Can Not Be Held For Claim Gettysburg, Pa., Sept. s.—Judge McPherson has hied an opinion in the interesting equity case of F. X. Little, of McSherrystown against the Ci garmakers' International Union and others, which was argued some time ago in the Adams county court. Em ma J. Little, wife of the plaintiff, was a member of the union and the regulations provided a flre-hundred dollar benefit for those dependent upon the member and a fifty-dollar funeral benefit. The plaintiff claimed that he was entitled to both provi sions as the widower, while the de fendants contended that the husband had not shown himself dependent upon his wife and as the widower could not draw the benefits. Judge McPherson holds that there was no evidence to show that the husband was dependent on the wife for his support, that he, as a member of the union was making wages and there was no legal obligation on a wife to support her husband, and In the ab sence of evidence showing such de pendency as a fact the husband could not recover the five-hundred dollars death benefit, but was en titled to the fifty-dollar funeral benefit and judgment was entered In favor of the plaintiff for fifty dol lars.
