SANE OLD STORY.
Playing Hog and Trying to Break n
Will,

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. Cit is stated
that Jesse Potter. the son Of Mrs. Charles
Lux, will take tie risk of forfeiture of
legacy in an attempt to get for himself
the a,OO0.011 estate left by his mother
Potter is the son of Mrs. Lux by her first
husband. When the widow of the cattle
king died her estate consisted almost en-
tirely of onednarter interest in the
cattle firm Of Miller 6 Lux. She left
100000 cash TO her son and made a num-
Der of smaller requests to relatives and
charity. The remainder amounting to
over $3,000.000 was left in trust, the in
come to be paid Jesse Potter during his
life. When Potter dies the estate is to be
divided among his son and two of Mrs.
LuX'S sisters. A clause i'll the will pro-
vides that in case any of the legatees
contest the will he shall forfeit his leg
acy. 1t is claimed by the people who are
fighting Henry Miller to compel him 10
wind up the affairs of the firm, that Pot
ter. is under his influence and follows his
orders. II the will is broken and Potter
gets the entire estate the distribution
of the estate will he indefinitely delayed.
Potter is now executor of the estate of
Charles Lux, and the other heirs of Lux
have commenced proceedings to have him
removed on the ground that he is incom-
petent to manage The affairs of the estate
and that he is combining with Miller TO
avoid the dissolution of the firm.
