the subject powerless. His pockets
were rified of watch, purse, etc, in a

HosD q Fortune Disappeared

The manner in which the entire for
tune OF a New York millionaire, Sam
uel Wood, which was mostly given
for the purpose OF founding a col
lege OF music, has been dissipated, is
reflection on the legal profession. or
his bequest Of million dollars for
this college not one dollar is now
available. OF the sums left TO heirs
little has been received. In twenty
three years this fortune has almost alb
solutely disappeared. The story OF
the shrinkage is as interesting as that
Of the Stewart millions. Woods will
was admitted to probate in 1878. He
left $4,000 to relatives, the remainder
Of the estate. amounting to over
81 900 900. for the founding of the Sam
uel Wood College of Music. From the
day the will was admitted to probate
litigation has never ceased The first
contestant Of the will was nephew,
who finally obtained about one-third
of the property. The remaining two
thirds have gone. The executors re-
fused to establish the college, claim
ing the will was invalid, and mean
while were drawing sometimes as
much as $4,000 as salary and fees in
year. They were also in continuous
litigation with the nephew. When
they came to final settlement with
him, and were about to sell the prop
erty. another lawyer put in an APP
pearance as the attorney for some Of
the poor heirs, and stopped all pro-
ceedings. Then litigation began afresh.
It came out in the Supreme court
last week that 1880 now remains
OF the property in the custody Of the
I court, obtained through real estate
/ deal. New suits are to be instituted
/ to determine to whom this belongs.
/ More than one-half of it will go tG
4 the lawyers. 1t will be surprising II
the heirs get dollar Of it In the end
Meanwhile the only reminder Of the
