OPENS LoRILLARD SKELETON.
Left Handsome Sum to Woman Who
Had Been His Companion in Re-
cent Years.

cent Years.
From the Philadelphia Record.
New York, July 1s.-Mrs. Lily AL
lien, of No. IL East Thirty first street,
is one of the chief individual legatees
under Millionaire Lorillards win. She
gets the princely Rancocas Stock Farm,
absolutely worth not les than $500, 900.
Thus it is that after his death Mr..
Lorillard poblicy announced his at
tachment for the woman who has been
his confidential friend for fifteen years.
Twenty years ago Pierre Lorillard
was possessed of $15,OOO,OO To-day
his estate has diminished to less than
one-third that sum. On Mrs. Allen
Mr.. Lorillard has lavished wealth as
well as affection.
Pierre Lorillard left his home in
Tuxedo last fall, never again to visit
it. Mrs. Allen remained there with her
father. John c. Barnes, until early in
the spring, when she received an ur-
gent message from Pierre Lorillard to
come to Europe. as he was seriously
i'll. She departed Immediately and re-
last Sunday.
Mrs. Allen was at his bedside in the
Fifth Avenue Hotel when the dying
millionaires wife, in response to
message from their son, Pierre Loril-
lard, Jr., journed up from Southamp-
ton, L. l., to see her husband for the
last time. At the door of her husbands
room she was confronted by Mrs. AL
lien. Mrs Lorillard turned on her heel.
without deigning so much as a word,
and returned to her country home.
Sympathizing with Mrs. Barnes and
endeavoring to help her, Pierre Loril-
lard fell victim to the charms of Mrs.
Allen, and a friendship began that
ended only in his death Whenever
Mr.. Lorillard was in New York he
made his home at No. IL East Thirty
first street, a house that he had pur-
chased and fitted up luxuriously for
the accommodation Of Mrs. ALLEN, her
father and himself Wherever he went
he was accompanied by Mrs. ALLEN,
save only on the occasions when he
went to Tuxedo Park to visit his chill
dren.
Under the will. which will be prob
ably offered for probate tomorrow or
Tuesday the entire estate, outside OF
the bequest to Mrs. Alien. is left in
trust. Opinions as TO the value OF the
estate differ. Some place IL as low as
$4,000. 000 but 1t is thought that IL will
reach from $1,000. 900 TO $1,000, 900. To
Mrs. Lorillard is left an annuity OF
$4,000 a year for life.
Members of the Lorillard family. at
a conference at Tuxedo Park to-day,
decided that no statement would be
made for publication by any Of them
regarding the will.

PLAIN TALKS BY ALGER.
The Former Secretary of War Crit
ciSeS Admiral Sampson and
Shows UP General Miles.

United states appeared before the COM
mission then sitting in Washington and
made his statements with respect to
the canned, fresh and refrigerator
beef furnished to the army during the
war.
Although the commission had been
sitting nearly three months the charges
with respect TO canned and refrigerator
beef We're now made for the first time:
and, stranger and more inexcusabie
and more unsoldierly stu. during all
those months, with this pretenSed
knowledge OF facts which IL they ex-
listed, should have been made known 10
the secretary OF war for the protection
Of the army, General Miles had never
mentioned the subject
General Miles seemed TO be pleased
with the notoriety which his startling
statement before the commission and
his subsequent newspaper interview
gave him; for again. on the Slst OK
March, 1899. in New York city. he pub
lished. through representatives Of the
Associated Press and of n metropolitan
paper, additional charges. This unmil-
itary and questionable method OF maxi
ing in public grave scandalous charges
regarding a brother officer and the work
OF his Observation-Disclosures which sub
sequent and careful investigation
proved both unwarranted and untrue
istics OF the major general commando
ing to which reference here would be
out of place.
IF we are to believe written evidence
to the contrary, il does not appear that
General Miles was even honest in maxi
ing his dilatory charges that the timed
beef was issued as the 'pretense or an
experiment" and that IL was not part
OF the ration. On the 18th or June 1888.
his most confidential staff officer signed
! a letter by direction OF the major
general commanding the army in
structing the depot commissary AT
| Tampa to furnish to General Nunez
| 1854 pounds of canned roast beef. to
| be issued from the subsistence stores
| OF the army.
IF we are to accept the reading or
| this letter was correct, 1t proves that
| General Miles knew that canned fresh
| beef was a part of the ration: that ne
| knew there was a large quantity OF II
| at Tampa for issue to the troops; and
| that he SO far approved OF its use as 70
| direct that the ration be furnished IN
| large quantities to our allies.

THE STRIKE POSTPONED
Fall River Mill Operatives Decide Not
to Strike Tomorrow

Fall River, Mass, October 5.--The
eratives here to be begun next Monday
morning, to enforce a demand for q 5
per cent. increase in wages has been
declared off for two weeks by the tex
tile council.
The members of the state board of
arbitration and conciliation came here
today to investigate matters, but the
announcement of the decision to defer
action left nothing for them to do.
The executive committee of the textile
ing today which was postponed from
last night and the action is said to have
been due to the uncertainty existing as
to whether a unanimous vote to carry
out the textile council recommendation,
could be obtained. The question hinges
on the action of the spinners' associa-
tion. to be taken this afternoon on the
strike question. It is understood that
there must be a unanimous vote of all
unions to put a strike declaration into
effect. 1t is now hoped that a general
stoppage of machinerv may be avert
ed by developments during the fort
nights interval.
At o'clock this afternoon the Mule
spinners' Association voted on the
recommendation Of the textile council
. to strike on Monday morning. The vote
was 273 against strickland 81 in favor

New York. October 5.-The Shamrock
III, in tow of the tug James Lawrence
left her mooring buoy at Sandy Hook
bar this morning, bound for the Erie
basin, where she arrived at noon. The
yachts mainsail was unbent and she
will probably be dismantled at once
After Sir Thomas Upton, accompan-
had paid a farewell visit to Colonel
Burbank and his family at the military
post on Sandy Hook, the Erin's anchor
was hove UP and that yacht steamed
direct to New York. She was saluted
by all the outgoing steamships on her
way up the harbor.
When asked if it was true that he
was willing to put the captain and
crew of the Shamrock on board the CO.
lumbia and allow that yachts crew to
handle the Shamrock in a series of
races, Sir Thomas said: Yes, 1 should
be willing to do it, if it is in the in
terest of sport, and provided, of course,
the other side is willing"
There will. however, be no such race
Monday next as both the yachts are
being stripped and could not be put in
trim again for weeks.
DR. E. Reid Mackay, of the Erin,
said there was every reason to believe
that the Shamrock will be laid up in
New York this winter, and that in the
spring or next summer She will be
raced against the Columbia Constitu-
| ton or any other 90-footer, For" said
he, 1--WE believe she is actually a faster
boat than the Columbia and can beat
| her if she is raced again under differ
ent conditions"
The following letter which explains
| itself, was sent today:
New York Yacht Club, Oct. s.
| Dear Strive have to inform you
| that the Columbia has won three out
| of five races from the Shamrock II, ir
| the match of 1901 with the Royal Ulste
| Yacht Club. The Americas cup, there

EPISCOPAL CONVENTION
CONSIDERABLE WORK ACCOMPLISHED
At YESTERDAYS SESSION.
Missionary Districts OF Porto Rico aud
the Philippines observation-disclosures
of Massachusetts Dfvfded-Houses at
Work on Amendments to the Consri-
tutfon-Question of Allowing Change
of Forms OF worships discussed.

San Francisco. October 5.-The gen.
eral convention of the Episcopal church
accomplished considerable work today
deputies was ended shortly after /
O'Clock
The house Of bishops, however, re-
mained in session later and their action
will be far-reaching in it's effect In
recognition of the Importance OF the
new possessions of the United States,
two missionary districts were consti-
tuted.
One of these which consists of the
islands of Porto Rico and Viques, has
long been controlled by the bishop of
Antigua, who owes allegiance to the
mutual agreement, the monetary con-
sideration being only $3.50, the bishop of
Antigua withdraws his right to the re-
ligious control of the church in these
islands and transfers all church build
ings to the Protestant Episcopal church
of America.
The second new missionary district
are recognized as being we'll worthy
the attention of the church.
The house of bishops also effected an
important change by concurring in the
action of the house of deputies in con-
senting to the division of the diocese of
Massachusetts. A fact worthy of note
| is that the old diocese gives 800, 600 in
i fn he no
i over to it much valuable church prop
| erty. The gift was raised entirely by
/ voluntary contributions.
| The bishops also took action on the
i first seven amendments to the consti-
1 tuition already adopted by the deputies
| all of them being affirmed, with the
/ exception of the fifth, which was tenn
/ porarily held in allegiance.
1 y This. with the appointment of com
mittee to take into consideration the
question Of examination of candidates
for admission to holy orders, constituted
the chief work Of the bishops.
An interesting feature of the day was
the discussion created in the house o.
deputies by the reading of a proposed
amendment to the constitution which
provides for "the temporary use o.
other forms and directories Of work
ship by congregations not in union will
the church who are willing to adopt th'
spiritual oversight of the bishop of th'
diocese or missionary district"
Some of the opponents Of the measure
professed to see in it a menace to th'
solidity of the church through the ex
, traordinary individual power it would
confer on the bishops, while others de
clared it would open the way for thu
, introduction of mass and other form!
of Romanish worship. It's champions
asserted that the whole purpose of thu
proposed amendment was to give th
missionaries a freer scope in their eff
, forts to bring within the church thos'
. converts who may be unable or unwill
ing to accept the Book of Common
Prayer. Considerable eloquence wa
, developed by the debate, and when th
hour of adjournment came the lay au
ditors were not tired of listening to tn
, arguments.
