LAWYERS IN THIS CITY SAY THAT THE ALLEGED
STRAUSS ESTATE DOES NOT EXIST.
The report that Abraham G. Meyer, a lawyer al No
1872 Nassau-st., expected to go to England to prose-
inquiries about alleged estate of David Sey-
mour Strauss. which number of relatives Strauss
in this country have been led to believe still held in
Chancery and amounts to $50 O00.O00 caused wel-n-
formed lawyers to say yesterday that no matter what
papers might have been in the possession of Mr.
Meyers grandmother. IT was absolutely certain that
there no such estate. Official information has
been obtained directly from the Court OF Chancery
several times In recent years that there is great
estate unsettled and that there Is no estate OF any
considerable size in Chancery in which American
claimants could possibly have any share.
In spite OF such information however, there have
been many inquiries that the employees In the
Court Of Chancery have been kept busy examining
the records to satisfy supposed claimants. Any
number OF lawyers have made large sums OF money
In pretending to investigate such claims. II Is well
known that there no large estates unsettled In
this city and yet often happens that the relatives
OF some man who died In this city many years ago
are led to hold meetings and raise money TO pay the
supposed expenses OF a lawyer or agent In prosecut
ng nauiries suits about the fictitious millions OF
the dead man. In every such case the people have
lost the money which they contributed, and In many
cases they have been led into extravaganza by the
expectation that they were to inherit large Of
money.
