derbilt y Result Of Negotiations.
New YORK, Oct. 30.-The Tribune
says:
The provisions Of the will of Cor.
nelius Vanderbilt excited intense inter
est. From certain remarks it appears
that this settlement alone. effected after
long discussion. prevented q legal con.
test that might have resulted in one OF
the greatest and costliest will litiga-
tons ever known. Cornelius Wander
bilt, when he learned the provisions OF
his fathers will, placed his interests in
the hands Of his counsel. Carter & Lad
yard. They conducted negotiations
with Henry B. Anderson, attorney OF
Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt.
While none Of those interested will
say Just what has been done, enough
has been learned that if the settlement
mentioned had failed litigation would
have followed. When Cornelius was
seen he dismissed the subject briefly.

Whatever arrangements have been
made We're effected through my attor-
ceys, Carter & Ledyard. I have no

Young Vanderbilt was seen later at
his home on Fifth avenue and made the
following important statement:
The agreement by which received
S. 600, 900 from my brother from the

were a gift. 1t is no gift, but a COM
pact entered into before my fathers
death. By this compact l was to re-
ceive at least $40. 900, 700. This adjust
ment was made some time before the
end. My share should be no less than
$40. 600. OOO."
when was the agreement made:" he
was asked.
Il can only say that it was some time
prior to my fathers DEATH" was the
reply. 1.-The matter since then has
been in the hands of my lawyers. They
have absolute charge Of my interests"
Mr.. Vanderbilt was asked if there
would be an amicable settlement of the
estate by the transfer Of the s., 900. 0O0

General Otis sends another opti-

Aguinaldo and his army are all but
captured and how he expects the
war to be ended before the close of
the present month. The American
forces are said to be closing in on
Bayambang where the rebel leader
was known to be located fortnight
ago and if he is still there it is ex-
pected he will be either killed or
captured. The country will hope
that the end of the war is near at

not apt to become jubilant over
Otis rose tinted representations.

Mr.. Patullo discussed the wheat
situation briefly, saying:

Tn putting the semi-annual f.
nancial statement into type last
week, an explanatory note at the
foot of the summary statement
was inadvertently overlooked. 1t
was to the effect that the tax roll
for 1899 has not yet been appor-
toned and does not appear in the
resources Of the county as shown
by the summary statement. This
explanation shows our county to
be in better financial condition
than would appear by the state
ment as published.
