SIX MILLIONS
FOR A WAIF

NEW YORK, March 21.-Frank Con-
ger of Brooklyn. who died suddenly a
few days ago in a Detroit hotel, be-
queathed to his adopted daughter, Cres-
sa Stewart Conger, whom he took from
the arms of her dead mother a dozen
years ago in a railroad wreck at Ham
burg. n. Y, an estate of $6,000,00O.
The girl is now IA years of age and
for twelve years has been thought by
many to be the daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Conger The Will has been filed
with the Surrogate of Ithaca, N. Y. Mr..
Conger left no natural heirs, and the
document states that the girl, whose
income will be $685. year, was the
daughter of the Rev E. E. Stewart ana
wife of Rochester, N. Y, both of whom
were killed on March g. 1890, in the
wreck on the Lake Shore road at Ham
burg, n. Y.
Ten persons were killed and score
injured that night. During a blizzard
a passenger train broke in two on Il
heavy grade and the runaway portion,
consisting of drawing room coach and
four heavy sleepers, overlook the day
coach and smashed it into kindling
wood.
George E. Allen, at that time general
Harry T. Jaeger of the same road, and
Frank Conger, hurried from the draw
ing room coach to ald the victims.
Over the wreckage they clambered
until they were halted by the cries of
an infant. 1t was some time before
the child could be located, but finally
Mr.. Conger found her. On a pile of
wreckage. half covered by drifting
snow, lay a dead woman and in her
arms lay a beautiful babe. The baby
was taken back into the warm drawing
room car none too soon, for she was
nearly unconscious. Mrs. Conger, an
invalid, was in the car, and to her
care the baby was given.
Mr.. Conger saw in the child's dress a
Masonic pin. AS he was a prominent
member in the Masonic order, he made
immediate arrangements for the care
of the bodies of the father and mother
of the child, took up subscription
among the Masons on the train and
when Buffalo was reached, supplement-
ed it by another appeal to the MEM
bers of the order in that city. He kept
the child at the hotel IN Buffalo where
he and Mrs. Conger remained until the
Coroner's inquest had been held. Re-
leases were obtained from the grand
gally made the daughter OF Mr.. and
Mrs. Conger.
Mr.. Conger bequeathed life interest
in his estate to the widow and an an
nuity of $500 to the widow of a friend,
for whom he had provided since her
husbands death.
