Parole Remains lnansw cred.

wAsHiNGToN. Feb. 25.-Although it is
nearly two weeks since the United States
Government called the attention Of Russia
to the fact that three officers of the Russian
cruiser Lena, informed at San Francisco.
had broken their paroles by going back
10 st. Petersburg, no response has yet
been received from the Russian Govern
ment. Officials Of the Government do not
display an attitude Of impotence, although
II is thought that Russia has had plenty Of
time to send response TO our inquiry.
1t Is presumed that Russia is investigat-
ing the entire AFFAIR from the San Francisco
end and that as soon a. the Consul there
makes his report TO st. Petersburg an
answer will be received by the United
States. State Department officials and
Count Cassini. the Russian Ambassador,
agree Ia the opinion that the matter will
be satisfactorily settled.

MILLIONS, Net, Divided Into II Parts.

(
final judgment has been signed by
! Supreme Court Justice Bischoh partition
| ing the estate left by Laura A. Delano
who died at Geneva, Switzerland. on June
u.s. 1902. Mrs. Delano was "A daughter OF
William b. Aston. The total property
passing under her will. after all the neces-
sary deductions for expenses. &c. amounts
to SO $50 ,2S5, Of which 81 ,555 IA was left
to her In trust by her father.
Under the terms Of the partition judg-
ment this will be divided as follows. One
sixth, or sl,14s $50, in three equal shares
of which John Hubert de Stuors, Margaret
de Stuers Oberndorif and Hubert de Stuers
will receive one share each, or $3.50 1913 30
apiece, and fve-siSths, or Ia e0i, to bc
divided into eight parts, of which the eight
children Of Mrs. Margaret Aston Chanler
will receive one share each, or s7l7, 1873
apiece.
Mrs. Margaret Aston Chambers children
are John Armstrong Chanler. whose share
will go to the committee OF his estate
Thomas T, Sherman: Winthrop A. Chanler,
Elizabeth Winthrop Chapman, William
Chanler, Lewis Stuyvesant Chanler Mar
garet l.. Chanler, Robert ". Chanler and
Aide Beekman Emmett
The Union Trust Company is trustee
under the will for the bulk Of the estate,
much of which goes TO the legatees only
for life, their children or heirs at law being
the subsequent inheritors. In the course
Of the taking Of testimony IL developed
that the old Aston family property known
as the Cozine farm and cores is valued
at 81 1888 ,22l.
Mrs. Delano was the widow Of Franklin
H. Delano, from whom she inherited a
large amount of property, including four
lots on Fifth avenue running from Sal TO
947 inclusive. These are valued in the
judgment at 1922 500. Her personal prop
erty amounted TO 81 ,o72 $40, The Aston
property at Sixth avenue and Seventeenth
street is appraised at .s920,i47, All these
values represent their actual worth all
taxes paid, at the time Of Mrs. Delano's
death.
On account OF the impending birth OF
a child to one Of Mrs. Delano's heirs, great
efforts were made 10 rush the judgment
through the courts before the interesting
event shall occur, as such an addition
would have necessitated, owing 20 legal
forms, complete trial OF the whole suit.
The record, as filed with Equity Clerk New
man, is the largest ever filed at any single
time In the clerks office Of this county.
The fee for fling WAS s6a. the largest ever
received. The taxable costs of the suit
alone amounted TO over $4,000, and the
fees OF the three executors under Mrs
Delano's will. John Jacob Aston, Warren
Delano, Jr., and Franklin b. Lord, are
nearly $4,000.

Now is the time to use Hyomei, when
the early summer days make it so easy
to cure catarrhal troubles. The Hyo-

Hyomei is a purely vegetable prep

ties are given off when it is breathed
by the aid of the pocket inhaler that
comes with every outfit. 1t destroys
all germ life in the air passages, puri-
fies the blood by supplying additional
ozone. and it's healing, volatile, anti
septic fragrance reaches every corner
of the respiratory tract as no medicine
taken through the stomach can possi-
bly, do

Hyomei. Extra bottles of Hyomei can
be procured. if desired. for so cents.
At this season OF the year when ca
tarrhal troubles can be so quickly and

treatment should be carefully investi-
gated by everyone and a complete out
fit should be in every home H. o.

In the cold season we do not exer
else as much and the skin and kidneys
do not throw off the waste matter as
freely. The whole system gets clogged
up just as a machine does when it is
not cleaned with frequency. The
stomach does its work feebly and gets
less nourishment out of the food. So
there is weakness everywhere. weak
