Mrs Oelrichs will also be appointed sole
administrator of the Charles L. Fair es-
tate while she is in San Francisco. This
Office was vacated by Mr.. Oelrichs' death.

volved as to show her resentment against
the cutting off of her son..
Neither Charles May Oelrichs nor Fla
men Gambler, his lawyer, would discuss the

Inasmuch as Herman Oe!richs voted in

Herman Oelrichs estate to her and her son.
This will be Mrs. Oelrichs' first effort to
Charles May Oelrichs and Mrs William
Jay. the testator's brother and sister, are
chief participants. 1t was learned from
those who are in position to know that a
representative of the firm of Jay & Gambler,
Charles M. Oelrichs' lawyers. is also rush
ing to San Francisco to file a copy of the
second will, favoring the blood relatives.
AS the widow left Newport Saturday, be-
fore the present bitterness developed, II is
probable that she will reach the California
surrogate's office first.
Great Legal Battle.
Her filing of will in San Francisco will
be the first shot In great legal battle that
will be watched with keen interest. On one
side are the widow and son. Herman DEL
riehs, jr., who were cut off in the later will.
On the other are the brother and sister. who
under the first Will benefited only slightly.
Mrs. Herman Oelrichs will stay In the
west only few days and then will return
to New York to file copy of her will with
the surrogate's office. Immediately, her
lawyer. James w. Gerard of the law firm
of Bowers & Sands, will start proceedings
to have the later will nullified.
Just what causes will be assigned for
Mr.. Oelrichs' cutting off his wife and son
have not been announced. 1t may be al
legged that he was of unsound mind.
James w. GeTaru Salo yesterday:
II am Mrs. Oelrichs lawyer. Mrs. Gel
richs will return to New York very soon
and file will made three years ago. This
differs from the one filed yesterday, mas
much as Mrs. Oelrichs and her son are the
chief beneficiaries. The will which favors
my client will be filed in New York and
San Francisco and any other place neces-
sary to obtain its probation.
II can't say just what will be our claims.
But our contest will take the form of hav-
ing Mrs Oelrichs' document accepted"

other than the cCntesting of her husband s
will. Primarily the purpose of Mrs. DEL
richs western trip, which was contem-
plated before her husbands death. is to
confer with LEGAL people regarding a big
realty deal in which it is reported that E.
H. Hartman of the Southern Pacific Com
pany is deeply concerned 1t is the sale of
sixty blocks of property on the northern
boundary of the city, commanding one of
the largest pieces of water frontage on the
bay and forming a key to transportation
situation that would be of incalculable ad-
vantage to Hartman in his coming bat
ties with Gould and Ripley and possibly
Hill for future supremacy on the San Fran
cisco peninsula.
Mrs. Oelrichs has received an offer of
81 100000 for this piece of property, which
is her last holding of the original Fair es-
tate. In laying his wires for the acquire
ment of the Fair property Hartman has
in view a plan for another railroad gate
way into San Francisco and one that will
more quickly reach the business portion of
new San Francisco and improve his posi-
ton against competition in securing the
bulk of the governments business emanat-
ing at the preside. With Mrs. Oelrichs'
water front property in his possession he
will transform 1t into big terminal point
and will then commence building in a
southwesterly direction toward his main
coast line using rights of way he already
has at Ingleside to aid him in carrying out
his scheme

Lightning, Thunder, Rain and Wind Have
Made Closing Days of May
Very DisagreeabIe.
Heavy Property Loss by Lightning and
Crops Injured by the Unus-
ualIy Heavy Rains.

The weather during the past week
has been the most disagreeable ex-
perienced in this section of Mime
sofa during May months for many
years that have past. 1t has been
hot, humid and rainy, and finally
the weather turned to a chill, with
a northeast wind, under cloudy
sky, and calling for overcoats to
make life outdoor pleasant. Heat
ing stoves were started up last
Saturday.
It has been a series of lightning
and thunder effects, with winds that
threatened property, and with heavy
rain storms that have swoolen.creeks
and rivers, and have washed out
growing grain, garden truck and
the like. Damage by lightning is
reported from every section minor
items, but yet numerous. The wind
has broken down mammoth trees
that have been growing on farms
and in cities for these many years,
and the human mind has been rest
| ing on uneasy street during all of
these conditions.
Over at Walnut Grove the heav-
lest damage was done by the storm
that commenced there at o'clock
last Wednesday evening. Lightning
struck the large ice house owned
by Jacobs & Nelson, setting fire to
and destroying most of the building,
leaving the contents to be exposed
to the elements. The rain that and
following nights has practically
placed the town on the gondola
