Timothy Hopkins Compromises His Suit
and Accepts Three Million Dollars.
NEW YoRK, March 5.-The Herald says.
Timothy Hogan Hopkins, the adopted son
Of Mrs. Mark Hopkins-Searles has com
promised his suit against Edward r. Searles
Tor S3,OO0OOO. The twenty-four or twenty
ave relatives Of Mrs. Searles have been
plaoated, and now this case, one Of the most
remarkable IN the history Of the United
States, is ended forever. Both sides claim a
victory. Wilhelmus hynderse, of Butler,
stillman a. Hubbard triumphantly told me
that Timothy Hopkins had found It advis-
able TO now accept Whist Mr. Searles had
offered him last year, while Russell J. vii
son, the counsel for Timothy, gleefully
acknowledged that the other side had com
promised the case.
How much does Timothy Hopkins getf
Inquired Of Mr. Mynderse. "Oh, $2,OOO,OOO
or 5000, 600, said the young lawyer.
"Is this in a lump sumE7 mo; stock and

mise; there was nothing 20 compromise
Mr.. Searles simply gives Mr.. Timothy Hop

Hopkins the same last year. II is a fact
however, that Mr. Hopkins unconditionally

OF Massachusetts, from Judge Harmon's de
cision in the Hoplzins-Searles win case"

resignation caused great regret.
Dr. Porter's temper was mildness itself.
