Estate Appraisement.

as appraisers for the Union Trust Com
pany, executor of the estate. The APP
praisement was made in the presence Of
representatives of the Union Trust Com
pany.
George A. Buskirk, manager of the pro-
bate department of the Union Trust Com
pany, said last evening that the appraisers
made a conservative estimate of the value
of the personal property left by General
Harrison and in some cases the value was
placed a little lower than certain stocks
could be sold for on the market. The ap-
praisers reported the total value of the
| personal property at $176,625. 90, including
all stocks, notes, insurance policies, etc..
held by General Harrison at the time of
his death. TIL aggregateevalue of the es-
tate left by General Harrison, including
real estate. will not fall short of $500, O00, as
the real estate will be appraised at about
100000, it is said.
SOME VALUELESS STOCK.
In the inventory filed yesterday will be
found several items that were appraised as
valueless, among them being stock in the
Helena (Montana) Mining Company, for
which 600 shares cost General Harrison
$1,000 and a few other worthless stocks. 1t
is also noted that a few notes held by the
deceased are appraised as valueless be-
cause the debts had been iQuidated before
his death. One of the assets is the royalty
of a book published by Scribner and it is
given as valueless, but IL is believed that
there will be a slight income from this
source Notwithstanding the book was pub
lished some time ago.
Many of the securities held by General
Harrison have increased in value since they
were purchased by him and this fact added
considerably to the personal property.
The appraisement Of real estate will be
made this week. Berkely Lodge In the
Adirondacks, which was bequeathed to
a u rricn will NOT hoNn 70 no IN
praised. The home on North Delaware
street will be appraised as will the other
