FOR HUNTINGToN's MONEY.
Princess Hntzfe1dt wants Daughter
Share of the Estate.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 6.-The Chron-
icle says: From sources thoroughly well
informed and entitled to credence comes
the statement that Princess Hatfield
has already begun legal proceedings
which, though not technically will con-
test, amount really to an attempt to set
aside, in part, the last testament of her
foster fatner, Coils P. Huntington. Suit
it is declared, was started in New York
some months ago by Princess Hatzfeldt
based on the alleged contract entered into
by c. P. Huntington at the time he took
the princess, then Clara Prentice, from
her mother, the sister of the first Mrs.
Huntington, to support and rear. The
action said to have been brought simply
is suit to enforce a contract Filing Of
papers in the alleged suit was suppressed,
it is said, presumably for service.

the past few days persons living on
streets paved with brick have seen some

the pavements have slowly expanded and
buleed out in the center until, like vol
canoes, the streets have spouted bricks
into the air. sometimes to height OF
ten feet. This phenomenon has taken
place on a dozen streets, and the con-
tractors have all been notified to make
immediate repairs.

among business men, who feared a strike
by the Miners union.
The result of the vote of the union on
the strike proposition Is still known only
TO the executive of the union. The feel
ing is general among the miners that the
strike was voted down, and the con-
tinued reticence of union officials is ca j
to confirm this opinion.
