GREAT LEGAL BATTLE BEGINS
Fight for .strattOn Millions COM
mences I'm Earnest in Court at
Colorado Springs.

COLORADO SPRINGS. colo.. Oct 70
The great legal battle over the stratton
millions commenced in earnest today in
the district court before Judge w. p. Seeds
Today's proceedings are the beginning Of
the fight on the present three executors
named by Mr.. Stratton in his will to prove
that the administrators appointed in Sep
tember by County Judge Orr were Illegally
created and. therefore, are not entitled to
handle and administer the estate. The case
the district on a writ of certiorsri issued
three weeks ago.
The most important point yet decided
was the ruling by Judge Seeds that ques-
tions in law must be taken up before ques-
tions of fact The decision, as far as It
goes, is a victory for the executors, as 1t
means II the illegality of the appointment
OF the administrators Is established, the en-
tire proceedings Of the county court will
be thrown out, in which event the executors
will not have to substantiate their charges
OF conspiracy preferred against the admin
strators three weeks ago. The latter OBJ
jected strenuously to the ruling.
United States Senator T. NJ Patterson
has been added to the array of legal talent
! for the executors. and appeared in court
this morning, addressing the court for two
hours, in which he reviewed the case from
the start to the present time.
Judge Bissel for the executors. followed
! and asserted that the appointment of the
