THE DUCHESS A DEFENDANT.
Further Contest Over the will of Louis
G.. HammersIey,

G. Hammersley.
New YORK, Dec. 19-Johu Mason has
brought an action against the Duchess of
Marlborough, George C.. Williams, Jacob X
Lockman, and others to set aside an agree
ment, by reason OF which the contest over the
will of Louis c.. Hammersey was withdrawn
before agreement in the Courc of Appeals. 1t
appears that the will of Hammersley left a
life interest In the estate to his widow, who
subsequently married the Duke of Marlbor-
ough The will was contested by Henry Ma
son, John Mason, William p. Mason, Sarah
2. Jones, and Others The will was admitted
to probate and the decision was affirmed ut
the Supreme Court general term. An appeal
was taken by the contestants to the Court OF
Appeals, but the settlement was made before
the case reached the calendar.
In the complaint which was filed to-day by
John Mason, through his attorney, Franklin
Bien, he states that the terms OF settlem ent
were that the contestants should bring no ac-
tion against the Duchess concerning the estate
during her lifetime, but the agreement was
not to affect an action against the will after
her death. Out of the moneys she should re-
ceive as interest and income from un-
encountered real estate the contestants were
to receive $101 ,667, the payment of which was
to be secured by policy of 100000 on her
life.
The plaintiff says that he declined to sign
this agreement until assured that all the con-
testants should receive a like amount of
money. He says that he has since learned
that James h. Mason declined to sign the
agreement, but his approval was subsequently
secured 10y payment to him Of $4,000. The
appeal was then withdrawn. He wants the
agreement set aside, the will contest argued
in the Court of Appeals, and an accounting Of
all moneys the Duchess has received since the
agreement was made.

ways, meaning principally the Washington and
Georgetown, the great artery of travel between
the sections. A bill would have passed at the
last Congress to compel this, but car was
put on to run every half hour. Immediately
upon the adjournment of Congress the car was

should be passed to require the running of car
on the Washington and Georgetown as often
at least as every alf hour.

The Gruenfeld Concert.

more delighted and enthusiastic audience
one seldom sees than that which filled the
Universalist Church last evening The oc-
casion was the first appearance in Washing
ton of Alfred Gruenfeld, the well-known
pianist and his brother Heinrich, the 'cellist.
The Guenfelds are natives of Prague, and have
been playing in public since boyhood. They
are men OF striking appearance, strong and
muscular In build Alfred is the older and
more distinguished, though Heinrich is a
great favorite with the Berlin concert-goers
and the German court. The programme last
night was we'll calculated to display the
powers of both and ranged from Beethoven
Sonata and the Wagner-Liszt "Isolde's
Liebestod," to such lighter numbers as
Schumann's ''Traumerei" and the Bocchensic
Minuet. Alfred Gruenfeld is virtuoso of
the first rank, possessing a wonderful tech
nique and great power yet evidently depending
more on Interpretation and light and shade
effects. AS an entertainer he is far ahead of
any pianist heard here in late years Helm
rich Gruenfeld has a strong even tone and
shared with his brother in the attentions of
the audience. Many prominent people were
present and the musical circle was there in q
body. The Gruenfelds will always be sure of
full house when they visit Washington.

full man and conscientious to fault, so far as
his work was concerned; but for all that he
seemed to have no conception of the meaning

If New York can worry along for while with
