San Francisco. March lS-rhe conten-

PRODUCTION OF what purports 10 he a later
Will than the one previously iiied for pro-
bate. II Is an holographic viii written in
lead pencil On two sheets Of legal cap
paper. IL was brought into court securely
framed between two plates OF glass by
Reuben Lloyd. who has been retained in
the case by Mrs, oelrichs and Virginia
Fair. daughters OF the deceased. This
alleged will divides the estate al
most equally between the two iaugh-
Queaths a few thousand dollars 10

provisions for such trust the estate
Is left In control OF under the will pre-
viously filed. Referring TO this alleged
Will. Attorney Lloyd informed the court
that the document according 10 its date
was executed three days later than the
will previously filed. He said he would
prove THAI the existence OF this will had
been known TO several persons. and that
Ii had finally been found I'm she possession
OF a very estimahle old lady, whose name
Lloyd did not divulge. Lloyd said the old
lady had not produced IL because she had
ttda Oh the oiifF Will ptkHS pItFtu lDT
probate. and had supposed that IL was a
later document than the one she held.
The fact that this new alleged will was
presented In court by Attorney Lloyd
would indicate that Charlie Fair and his
sisters have toined forces to contest the
will of their father. The attorneys who
represent the executors under the will
previously filed. and OF which the original
copy was stolen. intimated very strongly
that they believed this latest alleged will
to he n forgery. The case was finally
continued 10 April >.
The alleged will produced today be-
uueaths 10 the various brothers and sis
ters of the deceased and their children
about the same amounts as were left TO
them under the will previously filed.
Under the first will the families OF these
brothers and sisters would acquire large
portion of the estate upon the death OF
Fairs children. Charles. Virginia and Mrs
Oelrichs, hut under the will filed today
the brothers and sisters and their farnt-
lies would receive only the amount of
cash stated In the VIII. and the balance
OF the $40. .oo0, 600 estate could be distrih-
uted at once among the children OF the
deceased.
