CHIcAGo, I'LL September 29.--It is con.
sidered almost certain that Rev. Father
Richie, extreme ritualistic pastor OF the

will be called to account for the corner
stone OF the new church laid to-day in high
ritualstic form. 1t was celebrated with all
the forms Of the church OF Rome except the
mass was sung in English instead OF Latin.
Bishop Mclarcu was not present, and at
the laying Of the corner stone Father
Richie referred 10 the fact in
rather curt terms. He said the absence OF
the Bishop was regretted by the parishon.
ersabout to lay the corner stone in accord.
ance with their tenets, and he trusted they
would not swerve from them. The Rev.
Father Dorset would solemniza the event.
however, and it was peculiarly fitting he
should do so, as lie was the first rector Of

the speaker was student at college and

ALEXANDER HaMIEroAX ESTATE.
A Suit brought by the Heirs to Set
ASItlc aInrIn IsuiuIIinn,s WILL

Aside nnrin I.ainiIt0n's VIII.
New ioRE, September 29.-The heirs Of
Alexander Hamilton are about entering
on what promises 10 be great litigation
over the distribution OF the estate which
they have inherited, and which is es,i.
mated to be worth sl,50O,COO. Although
there had been disputes, no suit was
brought while John c. Hamilton, son Of
Alexander Hamilton, was living. John
c. Hamilton died at Long Branch, July
25th, this year. 4 few days ago his grand.
son, John G. l.. Hamilton, who is the son
OF John c. A. Hamilton, together with his
wife, brought suit against the other
heirs, by which it is expected 10 settle
that Mrs. Marie f. Hamilton, who died in
1873, w2s possessed oil the fortune now in
dispute. She LETT will, made in 1871, by
which she gave all her real property, COM
prising the bulk OF the estate, to her hus.
band. The complaint AYERS that when the
will purported 10 have been made Mrs.
Hamilton was very old and feeble and not
OF sound mind; that her husband exer;ed
undue Influence over her, inducing her to
make the will in his favor, and deceived
her rs to lis character, leading her TO be-
believe that it only gave him life estate
in the property. The plaintiff alleges fur
ther that when some OF the heirs were
about 10 begin contest OF the will on these
grounds, John c. Hamilton dissuaded
them by deciding to them certain
parts oil the real property. The plaintiff
says that his father was then living
outside Of the State and was not cognizant
OF these facts, and that the will OF Mrs.
Maria E. Hamilton was admitted to pro-
bate without his learning these circum.
stances. The plaintiffs father died in 1879,
leaving two children. John G. l. Hamilton
claims that lie is entitled to one twenty.
second part Of the estate. He asks judg.
lnent that the will OF his grandmother be
declared void; that the deeds by John C.
Hamilton 10 the heirs in settlement OF the
will contest be SET aside and declared to be
OF no effect; that receiver be appointed,
and that the defendants account for the
profits and increase received from the es.
tate. lie finally asks partition. None
OF the counsel connected with the case were
willing to speak about it today, and each
accused the other Of having made the iac,s
public.
