went to the elder son George than to
any of the other five children. The
latter inherited about 11,O0O, 600
each, and their unspent accumulated
incomes barely compensate for the
depreciation of the principal during
the last two years of financial de-
preston.
The heads of the various branches
of Vanderbilts will undoubtedly adj
here to the family traditions, and
bequeath the bulk of their respective
fortunes to the eldest sons and a
comparatively modest fortune to the
daughters. This plan keeps the
main wealth intact and secure in the
family railroads. The Astors adopt
similar methods for the preservation
of their city real estate holdings.
So, when it comes down to the
bare question Of millions, the Rookie
Teller girls, as they are invariably
called, are UNNECESSARILY above all
contemporary heiresses. Some time
ago in court the father of the girls
swore that he. could not tell within
certainly leaves a wide margin for
conjecture on the subject. Men who
claim to know say that his present
wealth is in the neighborhood of
$145,00 900, and that it's net increase
is at the rate of eight millions a
year, as his investments earn an
nually large dividends. He is only
fifty-fve years of age now, and were
he to live six years more he would
then be worth more than $500 .000, 900.
There are four children in the
Rockefeller family, and they will in
herit all of the wealth. 1t has been
Mr.. Rockefeller's policy to make all
the charitable requests in his life
time that he intends to make, and
the supposition is general among
his friends that, with a few small
exceptions, the bulk of his money
will go to his family. Of the four
children the eldest is Bessie, who
married Prof. Charles Strong, of
the Chicago university, to which
Mr.. Rockefeller has given $3.50, 900.
Mrs. Strong is twenty-eight years
old. Miss Alta is twenty-four years
old, Miss Edith is twenty-five, and
John D. ,Jr., the only son, is twenty
one.
$50,OOOOOO HEIRESSES.
Each of these children will inherit
anywhere from forty to fifty millions.
and 1t is doubtful if the whole wide
world contains two girls of such vast
wealth as the Misses Rockefeller.
How these girls spend their days will
be told here In the first place, it must
be understood that they are not women
of fashion. They never made formal
debut in the social world simply be-
cause they are unknown in the regular
walks of swaggerdom, and their circle
of friends is an extremely narrow one.
They take no interest in the changes Of
styles, Dances the theater, fashionable
clubs, or the thousand and one light
amusements of the society woman.
Their interest tends in a more serious
direction. Educational affairs, the sci
enceS, church and mission work and
kindred subjects are their enjoyment
They are not bookworms or over-cul-
tured women by any means; they are
healthy-minded and healthy-bodied

THE NEW BAND STAND
Hitch in the Construction of That at
West Lake
The Contractor Throws Up His Building
Job for Which the City
Has Paid 5000

1t looks as if the proposed new band
stand at Westlake park may not be fin

loving was yesterday filed with the city
CLERK
Please take notice that the contractor
for the erection OF the Westlake park band
stand, NJ. L. Bowen. has abandoned the
work, and that the same is IN danger OF
suffering serious damage from exposure
to the weather in its unfinished con-
dition.
Bowen formally notifed the park au-
thorities yes erday that he found 1t i'm
possible TO proceed with his contract, as
he had no means of his own for the pur-
chase of mat erisl. and he was unable to
obtain credit. He has an $500 bond up
for the faithful performance of his con-
tract, and the city may enter suit. Bow
en- gives as his reason for falling down
the fact that ne,has been unable to receive
assurances from the city regarding the
payment for his work, as the new tax
money will MT be available until some
time next month.
The fra-e for the Few building, as il
stands IN the park at present. is an eye
sore and will probably be ordered taker
down.
Bowen has already been paid by th'
city $500. The job complete was to hav,
cost Sl675.

W. l.. Woodward both stated that they
did not think that any custodian OF pub

penditure of them for any purpose until
the board first had approved the bills.
and they were paid through the usual
channels.
The present chief deputy county clerk,
George Narcoe. stated that no moneys
were taken out of the cash drawer of the
clerks office at present for any purpose
whatever, except TO make refunds, and
that expenditure is expressly authorized
by law.
The present Is the first grand jury that
has heen in session in this county since
August, 1894. Section 24l of the Code OF
Civil Procedure expressly provides that

judges there shall be two grand iurles ev-

superior judges.
70 very close friend Mr.. Lowery
stated last evening that he had not taken
the money, and that ct the proper time
he would tell who did receive it. The
party to whom this statement was made
repeated it 10 Herald representative.
The party IN question is himself public
officer, and lie Is srm in the belief
that what Mr.. Lowery has told him is
true.
Mr.. Lowery and Mr.. Ward had a long
consultation yesterday at the Office OF the
clerk of the supre court. Mr.. Ward
sent for Mr.. Lowery and he came. What
the result of that interview was has not
developed. Fur. .her revelations will come
