New York, July 26.-The filing of
the will of the late Russell Sage,
which will take place tomorrow. I'M
less all the present plans are disar.
ranged, will be the signal for the
institution of contestants on behalf of
several of the dead financiers rela-
tives.
By the terms of the will. the rela-
tives of Mr.. Sage. are 1t is understood
practically ignored, and virtually the
entire fortune amounting to approx
mately $100,000,00O is left without
condition to the widow
1t has been the intention to file the
document for probate this afternoon,
but at the last moment the plan was
changed because of the detail invol-
we'd in conforming with the legal re-
quirements.
Mrs. Sage through her secretary
announced this afternoon that the
will of her husband would be read
and filed for porbate tomorrow.
A bitter contest will be made
against the probating of the will on
the grounds that Mr.. Sage was not in
his right mind during the last few
years of his life, and that his wife
exercised undue influence over him
to the end and that his relatives be
cut off from any share in his estate.
1t will be alleged further. that Mr..
Sage made two wills. the latter one
of which, being drawn UP since his
alleged mental weakness.

Mr.. Bryan in a letter to Hon. Alexan-
der Troup. of New Haven, writes in
part, as follows:
There will be some expense and
the committee must see to it that no
money is accepted from questionable
sources; in fact, l think it would be
we'll to announce that the exepnse
would be- borne by popular subscrip-
ton, dollar subscriptions being pre-
ferred, but that larger subscriptions
would be received up to $50, none be-
ing received over that. Also, an
nounce that subscriptions of S. or
more than So would be entered in a
book and the names be given to any
one desiring them. Subscriptions of
less than S., would not be made
known, without the expressed consent
of the subscriber.
Say that the reception will be
made as inexpensive as possible and
that any surplus over and above the
expenses of the reception will be used
to print and circulate the spec ches de-
livered at the reception
A communication was received to.
