TWO MILLIONS IN IT
Several Claimants for the Es.
tate Of L. A. Robertson.
MATTERS VERY COMPLICATED
Two Different Persons Are Now Acting
as Administrators

FMS Interested.
HUNTINGTON, Pa, June l9.-The estate
Of Millionaire L. A. Robertson, who died
recently in Brooklyn, leaving extensi We
landed interests in Pennsylvania, New
York and West Virginia. is about TO be
the subject of interesting litigation.
Certain relatives of the deceased, who
will profit more literally If they can
show that Mr.. Robertson was resident
of this State instead of New York, have
| had letters of administration issued by
the Registrar of Warren County, this
State, so that now two different persons
are acting as NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. under
| the laws Of New York and the other un-
der the laws of Pennsylvania.
Mr. Robertson died iutestate, leaving
real and personal property worth So
0O0,0
Under the intestate laws of New York,
| tho surviving children of IA decedent's
dead uncle or aunt do not inherit the
share of the father or mother, while in
| Pennsylvania they do. That Is to say, If
Mr.. Robertson had an uncle or an aunt
who died before he did leaving children,
under the laws of New York the children
would not share in the estate, while In
| Pennsylvania they would inherit the in
| terest of the deceased parent. Such a
state of facts exists in this case, and the
| children OF Mr. Robertson's deceased
unoles and aunts are therefore trying to
prove that their cousin was a re sident of
| Pennsylvania at the time of his death
and not Of New York. If they can sue.
ceed in proving this, each will get q
magnificent sunni If they fail, they will
not receive a cent
Mr. Robertson's surviving uncles and
Runts are anxious that their nephew &
estate should be settled Inder the laws
of New York, as the adjudication of the
same there would make each Of them
richer to the extent of several hundred
thousand dollars. No nearer relatives
survive Mr.. Robinson than uncles and
aunts.
Another interesting feature of the cas-
is that If Mr.. Robertson shall be declare
| to have been resident of Pennsylvania,
the State will collect a collateral-inherit-
ance tax on the whole of his 80 ,000, ,00O
estate, no matter where the property Is
located; whereas If it shall be determined
| that at the time of his death he was a
citizen of New York, this State will col
lect only its 8 per cent. on the value of
| what estate there may be in Pennsylva-
MIA. The Mapleton tannery here iss ap-
praised at S275,000, and the Warren
County property is worth S500,000,
