(Supreme Court, Appellate Division, Second Department.

Matter of Mashbir, 44 App. Div. 632 , 60 N. Y. Supp. 451 . In order that the actual disbursements incurred may be properly shown by vouchers and other proofs, and the matter be duly subjected to investigation, it is ordered that the charges herein be referred to Hon. Josiah T. Marean, official referee, to take proof as to the proceedings in the action of Lipsitz v. Beere, and to report, with his opinion thereon, to this court.
