SUED
RooseveIts to Collect
Money.
President Also Named as One Of
the Defendants.

New York, Dec. 26.-President
Roosevelt is named in an action begun
In the Supreme court by Mrs. Gertrude
Motley to recover $4,000 which, she
alleges, she placed in the hands of Cor
nelius Roosevelt, the Presidents first
cousin, in Paris. Mrs. Motley also
presented an application to the Surro-
gate for the appointment of an admin
istrator of Cornelius Roosevelt's es,
tate, ,..
The latter, who was a promoter and
resided most Of his time in France, died
In this city on visit to relatives on
Feb. Is last. Mrs Motley says she in.
vested $4,000 in La Caisse Financiere
Fmncaise, one of the companies which
Cornelius Roosevelt was promoting
She says that when the company failed
to justify all that Roosevelt had ex
pected he took the stock back and gave
her his personal note for the money.
To secure the note he assigned to her
his interest in the estates OF his uncle
Cornelius V. r. Roosevelt, and his
brother, Frank Roosevelt excepting
Akron daily Democrat. [volume] (Akron, Ohio) 1892-1902, 1902-12-26

$1,000 from the lattcr's estate, which
he had already assigned to W. Emlen
Roosevelt
Soon after he went to Paris TO live
in 1878 Cornelius married in that coun'
try. His marriage greatly displeased
his family and he was disinherited by
his uncle, Cornelius V. II. Roosevelt,
who died in 1887. This uncle left a
large estate, one of his heirs being
President Roosevelt, who is now re-
ceiving an annual income of $1,000
from his share of the property.
Mrs. Motley made efforts to collect
her claim from the two estates she
says, but got nothing.
W. Emlen Roosevelt and John Il.
Roosevelt say that they will contest
Mrs Motley's application for the ap-
pointment of an administrator. 1t was
said Tuesday by Mrs. Motley's attor'
ney that w. Emlen Roosevelt had
stated to him that the Roosevelts had
rot bothered to have an administrator
appointed for Cornelius Roosevelt, as
he left nothing but debts, amounting III
all to about $4,000.

and they will right themselves. en-
tlrnrtics irritate the sensitive Innings OF
the stomach and bowels and often do
more harm than good.
Purging is not what Is needed. The
thing to do is to put the food in con-
