WASHINGTON, Feb. l6.-Col. Andrew
Jackson, agrandson Of the late Presi
dent Andrew Jackson, who resides
at Hermitage, Tennessee, to-day took
out letter OF administration upon the
estate OF his grandfather and immedi-
ately through his solicitors, John
Paul Jones and Robert b.,
Tines, filed bill in equity,
setting forth that the widow of the late
Hon. Montgomery Blair and her son,
woodbury. Blair, now have possession
OF and claim to own large number of
very valuable papers relating to the pub
lie and private life of Gen Jackson, and
praying TOR an Injunction against
defendant to prevent them from dispos-
ing OF or publishing said papers. 1t is
said they were placed in the
hands of Amos Kendall, in 1913,
with a view to the publication
of biography of Gen.
Jackson, which he (KendalD had
undertaken to write. The
papers were lost for many years and
were found by Col. VIM. G. Terrill, of
Kentucky, in 1879, subsequent to the
death of Mr. Kendall, when they were
placed in the hands of Montgomery
Blair for safe Keeping. MIR. Jackson
alleges in his bill that the representa-.
tives of Blair claim that the
papers were given TO f. p.
Blair by Gen. Jackson, and it is upon
this question that the suit will probably
turn. The bill also prays for
the appointment of receiver pending
the litigation. Coli Jackson has re-
tanned Senators Harris, of Tennes see,
| and Voorhees,, of Indiana, and Repre-
sentative Coldwell as his counsel
