ACTOR Min SUES.
Asks Accounting From Widow of His
Wife's Father.

Chicago, June 25.-A remarkable suit
at law to determine the final DISPOSE
ton of the $500 900 estate of the late
Thomas NJ. Jordan of the Chicag go
Board of Trade has been begun before
Judge Marcus Kavanagh in the super
Tor court.
The suit comes as an entire surprise
to the widow Of Jordan and to the 9TH
er heirs. 1t was brought by George
Crichton Min of London, once pastor
OF Unity church in this city and later a
wife, Louise Jordan Min, who is a.
daughter of the dead board of trade
man.
Mr.. Min was the pulpit successor of
the Rev. Robert Collyer. His wife has
made a name as an English novelist.
During the last week the Milns, ac-
companied from London by an English
barrister. Henry wellington Wack, have
been in Chicago engaged in an exam
ination of court records relating to the
management Of the estate in question
by Mrs. Annie E Jordan, widow of the
capitalist.
Based on this investigation, sensa-
tional charges are to follow in the
courts. regarding an alleged attempt
to deprive the Milns of the share of the
Jordan estate allotted to the daughter
by will, and collision and an alleged
conspiracy discovered by chance by the
defendants.
In substance. the plaintiffs charge Is
that for sixteen years the income from
the Jordan estate has not been rightful-
ly distributed and the sums of money
forwarded from Chicago to the daugh
ter in London have been insignificant
compared to those which she was right
fully entitled.

TO EXTEND FOREIGN DEBT.
Chin's Budget Contains an Item of
$4,6SO,OOO.

1905 contains appropriations Of 81 ESQ.,
900 for the extension of the foreign debt,
says a Herald dispatch from Valparaiso,
Chile.
The president has asked congress to
postpone the law for the resumption
of paper currency until July. 1907 and
to provide for the emission after that
date of SO, 0O0. 900 paper, guaranteed by
a largely increased gold reserve.
The conversion was to have been car
ried out next January but the post
ponement is asked for by the president
because of the unpreparedness of the
country, and because a certain amount
of the conversion fund was used for
urgent expenses when the country was
in grave danger of war.
General approval is given to the pres
identS action.
