FORTUNE FOR
THE PRESIDENT
Mr.. Roosevelt Falls Heir to
More Than 100000
PORTION OF An UNGLB'S ESTATE.
The Money Was Left by Cornelius
Roosevelt. Over whose VIII
There Has Been Protracted
Litigation.

NEW YORK, Dec 14.-Aecording to
decision handed down by Justice Lawrence
in Z suit brought for the purpose Of OBJ
tanning construction Of The viii Of Cor
reIius Van Shack Roosevelt, who died in
New York in 1857, President Theodore
Roosevelt, who Is e nephew Of the tesla
tor of the will viii inherit fortune OF
between 500 600 and $50, 600
Cornelius Vsn Shack Roosevelt, who
lived in New Jersey for number of years
before he died, left upon his death an es-
tate valued at between $1,000, 900 and
81 900, 600. The estate consisted of be-
tween $400. 900 and $580, 900 in personal
property in this city and q great deal of
real estate il this State and New Jersey
1884. The suit brought against the estate
has been pending for long time.
The Testater's VIII.
The testator bequeathsd TO his wife, the
aunt of President Roosevelt, and who died
last year, all of his property in trust.
The trustees and executors under the will
were. upon the death Of the widow, obliged
10 pay certain anRuities out of the estate,
among them an annuity Of IS, 900 year
to Marie Geddes Mensing, and to each OF
her children, Laura Roosevelt Mensing
and Elfreid Grosvenor Mensing, an an
uuity Of s., 600 year.
In case of the death Of one OF the three
annuitants the remaining two were to re-
eeive annuities of $500. srd in the case
of the death of two OF the three the sur
vivor was TO receive an annuity Of SIS. 900
year.
The fourth clause of the will. the pro-
vision under which the President, with his
brother and sisters and cousins S be-
queathed a considerable fortune, reads as
follows:
The Presidents Interest.
"On the decease Of my said wife I do
devise and bequeath all my estate, real
and personal, subject to the payment Of
the said annuities, to my nephews and
nieces, Alfred Roosevelt, W. EmIin
Roosevelt. Mary E Roosevelt. Leila
Roosevelt Schuyler, Theodore. Roosevelt,
Anna l. Roosevelt, Elliott Roosevelt, Co
rhine Robinson, wife of Douglas r. Rob
inson; John z. Roosevelt, James West
Roosevelt, HIborne L. Roosevelt. and
Frank Roosevelt, to be equally divided
between them, share and share alike, and
I do declare and direct that no part o.
my estate shall in any event pass to or
be paid over or received by Cornelius
Roosevelt or his issue and I hereby eX-
eluda him and his issue from having or
receiving anv share OF my estate"
Mary E. Roosevelt and HiIborne l.
Roosevelt died before the testator, and
since his death Alfred Roosevelt, Elliott
Roosevelt, the Presidents brother; Frank
Roosevelt, and J. West Roosevelt have
died. Before the testator died he left

the viii CT the four nephevs and nieees
who G!ed after their uncle VIII pass 10
these heirs
Contention of Opposition
In the suit, which has been n the
courts for nearly TWO years. Il was OBJ
jeCted TO by the counsel for Dorothy
Roosevelt, q daughter Of HiT3orue L
Roosevelt, deceased, that Justice Of the
Supreme Court OF this county had no
jurisdiction 10 construe the viii, for the
reason that the testatoC died in New
Jersey, and also for the reason that the
viii did not disclose trust which the
executors and truSfes Of the estate were
TO execute after the death OF the widow
Justice Lawrence holds that that con
teDtion was not so--d-f5r the reason
that most Of the real and personal es-
tate Of the testator was situated in this
State. and for the further reason that
the viii was proEstsd here and that
nearly all the parties interested in the
administration of the estate resided here.
Nephew Cut OF.
In the suit brought for the construction
of the viii the question was raised as TO
whether or not the nephew Cornelius.
who was cut of in the viii. should not
benefit. in view Of the fact that a num-
Der Of neDhews and nieces died after the
testatOr and before the widow. Justice
Lawrence holds however;
y think II vas plainly the intention
Of the testatoT not to die intestate as TO
any part of his property. and it was ne
cessary for him TO distinguish those to
whom he wished to give his estate from
those he desired to exclude, and there
fore they were named individually. He
declared in the pialnest terms that Cor
neIius Roosevelt, who was one Of his
nephews and a brother of some Of those
who were named in that clause of the
will, should in no event share il his es-
tate
In this suit it was also contsnded that
the anEuities. aggregating SIS. 600. should
not hold, as they were contingent upon
| the death OF the widow, and that they
UnduIy suspended the power Of alienation.
Justice Lawrence holds that the two
cousins of President Roosevelt who viii
benefit under the clause providing for the
aunuities cannot be cut of from their
rights under any technical construction Of
the law. The court then orders that the
case be settled after three days notice
Who Testator Was

REPUBLICANS TO
FAVOR MCLAURIN.
GOOD COMMITTEE ASSIGNMENTS.
But Senator Wellington Remains n
CASTOR of His Own Party and
Is Barred Out by the Demo-
cratic Party.

The Republican Senators have decided
10 invite Senator McLaurin DemocraO
into the party fold so far as TO give him
assignments on the majority end Of the
committees.
Senator Wellington OF Maryland IS still,
however, a man without a party. The
Republicans viii not have him and the
Democrats DO not want him, so there is
much interest to know what viii become
OF him.
It is the first time in the history Of the
Senate that both parties have declared
practical boycott against one OF their
members. Senator McLaurin, the Demo
crat, fell into disfavor because he sup
ported President McKinley's policies in
the Philippines and Porto Rico and be-
cause he believed that certain amount
of protection would be a good thing for
Southern manufacturers. His disQuaIif-
cation was Of political nature entirely.
wellington without a Party.
The case Of Senator Wellington, the Re
publican black sheep, is a little different.
Not only did he oppose the Republican
Administration Philippine policy and the
retention of those islands. but he Iiad
personal disa greement with President Nc
Kinley- This he carried 10 such an extent
that not even the tragedy at Buffalo could
wipe out his resentment.
The day after that event Mr. yelling
| ton was credited with an Interview IN
which he declared that Mr. Mckinley vas
an enemy of his and that he had % IL
! terest in the outcome Of the fight that the
/ stricken President was mSking Cor his
| life.
| This statement, coming from a -gbIie
man. and never denied, shocked the coun-
! try and his party associates. The ostTa-
cism to which he was subjected because
! of this interview began early in this ses-
/ sion.
/ He was kept on his feet for over an
/ hour one morning when he desired 70 in
/ troduce few bills, the presiding officer
/ persistentIy and even ostentatiously ig-
noring him in favor Of other Senators.
| McLaurIn without a Caucus.
| Senator McLaurin was not invited to
| attend the recent Democratic caucus. He
/ says he will enter the Republican caucus
! only if he is invited to do so, but he viii
not be bound by its decisions. It is
| therefore not likely that he viii be IN
yited.
Senator Wellington has been shut out
| from the conferences OF his party and
was compelled 10 fock by himself, for the
/ Democrats are as much opposed TO his
! attitude as are the members OF his own
! party.

TONS OF MAIL FOR EUROPE.
Two Steamers Required to Carry
Over YuIetide Tokens.

NEW YORK, Dee I4.-From midnight
till o'clock this morning a succession Of
two-horse postofhce vans drove busily
back and forth between the foreign mail
station at Morton and West Streets and
the Cunard line docks, where the LucanIa
and the Kaiser Wilhelm were awaiting
the sailing hour.
Today was the last day when mail post
ed for continental Europe would arrive
across the ocean in time for the Christ
mas delivery and for this reason alone
two mail steamships are sailing on Sat
urday. an unprecedented thing in the his
tory Of Christmas mails, for usually only
the one mail leaves for Europe at the
weeks end.
So the mail vans this morning carried
ton after ton of letters in a stream OF

A FEW REASONS
which Are Rapidly Making New
Cntarrh Cure Famous

Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, the new Ca
tarrh cure, has the following advantages
over other catarrh remedies
First: These tablets contain no CO.
caine, morphine, OF any other injurious
drug. and are as safe and beneficial for
children as fer adults; this is an import
ant point when 1t is recalled that many
catarrh remedies do contain these very
Objectionable ingredients.
Next: Being in tablet form this remedy
does not deteTioTate with age or on ex-
posure to the air. as liquid preparations
invariably do.
Next: The tablet form not only pre-
serves the medicinal properties, but it is
so far more convenient TO carry and TO
use at any time that it is only a question
Of time when the tablet viii entirely SUI
persede liquid medicines, as it has al
ready done in the medical department Of
the United States Army.
Next No secret is made of the compo-
sition Of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets; they
contain the active principles of Eucalyp
tus bark. red gum. blood root, and Hy-
drastin, all harmless aEtiseptics. which,
however, are death to catarrhal germs
wherever found. because trey eliminate
them from the blood.
Next You cannot cure CatGrTh by
local applications to the nose and throat.
because these are simply local symptoms
and such treatment cannot possibly
reach the real seat OF catarrhal disease,
which is in the blood; for this reason, in
haIers, douches. sprays. and powders
never really cure catarTh- but simply
give temporary relief y hich dose Of
plain salt and water win do just as well
Catarrh must be driven out of the sys-
ten. out OF the blood. by an internal
remedy because an internal remedy is the
only kind which can be assimilated into
the blood.
Stuart's CatarTh Tablets do this better
than the old form of treatment because
they contain every safe specific known to
modern science in the antiseptic form Of
the disease
Next: The use OF inhalers. and spray
ing apparatuses, besides being ineffec-
tive and disappointing. is expensive,
while a complete treatment OF Stuart's
Catarrh Tablets can be had at any drug
store in the United States and Canada for
30 cents
