BROWN DENIES CHILDREN.
Cuts OFF, In His VIII, Offspring Of
Mrs. Bradley.

Salt Lake City-Had the late Sena-
tor Arthur Brown foreseen his death at
the hands of Mrs. Anna Bradley, he
could not have devised no more ingen-
ious retaliation than the post morten
revenge contained in his will. The
document, which was written August
"a, 1906, four months beore Mr.. Brown
was shot down at the Raleigh hotel in
Washington, has been filed for pro
bate.
Il do not devise, or give or bequeath
anything to any of the children of Mrs.
Anna Bradley" is the language of the
will. II do not think either or any
child born to Mrs. Anna M. Bradley
lis or are mine, but whether such child
or children is or not expressly pro
vide that neither nor any of them shall
receive anything of my estate.
II have never married Anna M
Bradley and never intend to. If she
should pretend that any such relation
ever existed between US to justify
such inference, direct my executors
to contest any claims Of any kind she
may present and I direct that she re
ceive nothing from my estate"
| The testator bequeaths all his prop
erty, valued at about $4,000, to hi
two children by his first and secont
wives, Alice Brown and Max Brown.
Contest Is Probable.
The children SO specifically disin
herited are Arthur, aged z, and Mark
aged 8 years. The attorney engaged
by Mrs. Bradley's relatives in Sal
Lake decline to discuss the will a
this time, but there Is scarcely q ques
ton that contest will be instituted
as much for the purpose establishing
their paternity as to secure a none
tary consideration. This is the NOR
likely as Mrs. Bradley is, or was
few months ago, in possession of lei
ters signed with Browns name il
which the relationship to one or bot
of the children Is acknowledged. L
one of these letters, written after tn
, birth Of the first child, appears the TO
lowing quotation:
your blood and mine comminglet
, yet shall mount the throne of kings
: The contents of the will have cause
sensation in Salt Lake.
