during the day were noted ih the greatest interest
a story was published yesterday afternoon that

regarding the nature OF the Interview but Il las
leaked out that the call was for the purpose OF ask
ing when the will and other papers OF Mr.. Nathan
in possession OF the Police Department eau be re
turned TO the family. The reply OF Capt. Joar.
dan has not transpired. Mr.. Harmon H. Nathan
also desired that the police should prevent the per
petnal presence OF gaping crowd ut his late father
door, and request oil persons TO move instead OF
standing. The family, he said. found IL very annoy.
ing to be cazed at by multitude each time that
they entered or len the dwelling.
u IS added that, during the day, Washington

taxing an inventory OF It's contents. The rumored
