    F. H. Van Vechten, for appellant.

   PER CURIAM.

Since the statute of 1884, as amended in 1892 (substantially re-enacted as section 20, Domestic Relations Law 1896), a married woman has the same power to contract as a feme sole or man. Therefore the point sought to be raised by the appellant has no foundation or basis in law.

The judgment should be affirmed, with costs.
