FIGHTING OVER
THE PLANT ESTATE
Transfer OF Matter of Millions
From Connecticut to New York
Courts Is Opposed.

NEW HAVEN, Conn, May 3-The an
rouncement was made today that the
transfer Of the estate Of the late Henry
Bradley Plant. amounting to SIS, 900. 900 Or
$0,CO00OO, from Connecticut to New York
courts will be vigorously opposed by
Horace @. and Charles II. HOadley of this
city, who was a half brother of the de-
ceased millionaire. The case comes uD
next Monday.
Counsel for the HoadIeys will oppose the
transfer on the ground that the will OF
Henry Plant, If executed here, will hold
the entire property in trust until tho
unborn grandson OF the testator shall
have attained his majority, and because
of the alleged fact that If the widow and
Morton Plant and his son should die the
will would be void and the Hoadleys VIII
become legal heirs to the millions.
On the other hand 1t is alleged that lf
the transfer is made to New York the
courts there will not recognize the VIII
and will divide the estate. giving one
third to the widow and two-thirds to Nor
ton f. Plant. Besides contesting the pro-
posed transfer, Col. Lucien r. Burpee. OF
Waterbury who represents the con-
testants, has secured an injunction re-
straining temporarily the local court from
authorizing the release Of the funds.

the knockout blow, a left to the jaw,

almost ready to fall.
Both men were severely punished Car
ter's right eye was closed, his lip was
cut and his face was bloody while Harts
right eye was badly swollen and the
blood was flowing freely from his nose

the decisive blow was struck it seemed

his opponent.

tired at the close. Carter opened the
round with q left to Hart s nose and fol-
lowed it up with another of the same
description. He then landed hard on
Harts eye and the Louisville fighter
jabbed to the head and then put a stiff
right over the heart, following ii with
lefts and rights to the jaw and mouth,
but was finally staggered by one of Car
ters stiff rights to the jaw. Both men
were becoming wild and weak They
came up stronger in the sixth round,
however and were at it hammer and

rifle miX-ups ever seen in a prize ring
in Louisville.
AS a consequence they were almost
worn out at the end of the round In
the seventh neither seemed able to do
any damage. They staggered about the
ring, falling against one another and
neither was able to land an effective
blow. They were very wild. The eighth
round was a repetition Of the seventh.
and both men were swinging wildly at
each other without steam enough in their
blows to do any harm.
The ninth round opened with both men
almost blinded and hardly able to stand.
After staggering around the ring for a
few seconds Hart landed on Carter's
jaw and pushed him to the floor. He
arose, however, but Hart landed on him
again and he went down and was unable

appointment of the spectators, many Of
whom had picked him to win.
Pierce had no trouble in distancing the
field in both the 100 and 20O-yard dashes,
making the former in 10 2-5 seconds.
Haroldson, who is destined to do great
things on the track before he finishes his
course won both the one and two mile
runs with ease.
La Fans also carried off two 1rsts by
winning the hammer throw and discus

Handicap Finishes Under

Scratched Their Thor

NEW YORK, May S.-Out of a field Of
twenty horses at the end of the fret
eighth Of a mile of the Metropolitan han
dlcap at Morris park today, raced Arsenal
son Of the famous Splinter LampIighter, TO
lead TO the wire and victory with it's
reward Of $3.50. He was desperately
pressed by Herbert, Carbuncle, Chiffon
and Smoke and finished under whip and
spur, vigorously piled by Johnny Daily
with scarce strength enough to go anoth-
er dozen leaps at the killing pace of the
race
1t was a sterling race, fairly started,
samely contested for every inch of the
mile and spectacularly finished. Twenty
to one was laid against Arsenal and his
splendid victory was a popular one. Jock
ey DAILY was paraded in front Of the grand
stand perched high on the shoulders Of
trio Of admirers and Arthur Feather
stone, owner of the victor, was enthusi-
astically congratulated by his friends.
The great crowd that filled the stand
betting ring, paddock lawns and club
houses was not demonstrative, although
the sensational finish brought a volley
OF cheers. A driZzling rain had fallen at
intervals during the day and the crowd
was chilled.
