3 New York, Oct 16.-The middle of
October having been reached, the time

Peary Arctic expedition, hope prac.
tically has been abandoned of hearing
this year from the band of explorers

1t was expected news would come
from the expedition through the
whalers when they sailed into Dundee,
Scotland, at the end of their cruises

The whalers have failed to come
into port and this is taken as GER
tain indication that unusual weather
conditions prevail in the Arctic and
that the entire fleet has been caught
in the ice in the sudden closing Of a
remarkably short summer period.

GREAT WILL CONTEST BEGUN.
Fight for Weightman Millions Called
~, for Trial. g.


Philadelphia, Oct. 16.-The great
contest to have declared invalid the
will Of William Weightman, the mil
lionaire chemist, who died leaving an
estate valued at about $60,O00,0O0,> was
called for hearing before Judge Ash
man in the orphans court. N.=
William Weightman was the founder
Of the Powers & Weightman firm of
chemists, which since his death has
become the Powers-Weightma -Rosen-
garten company. He was known to
have acquired vast fortune and when
he died the public generally was sur
prised to find that 1t was left entirely
to his daughter, Mrs. Walker. Under
the terms of the will as offered for
probate nearly all of the vast fortune
was bequeathed to Mr.. Weightman's
daughter, Mrs. Anne WN ;htman-
Walker. The suit to set aside the will
was instituted by Mrs. Jones-Wister,
who was a daughter-in-law of Mr..
Weightman but who remarked at the
death of her husband, John Weight
man. Mrs. Wister, on behalf Of her
minor daughter, Martha Weightman,
seeks to prove that Mr.. Weightman
left codicil to his will amply provid-
ing for his granddaughter and the
other heirs to the estate. Mrs Walker
denies that any such codicil exists and
says the will probated was her fathers
last and full expression Of his desires
In the matter.
If the will is broken five grand
daughters and a grandson of Mr..
Weightman will be benefited. The
case has attracted considerable atten-
ton because of the social prominence
Of those concerned. A sensation was
created by Mrs. Wister's declaration
that Mr.. Weightman, who was past
eighty years of age when he died,
made a proposal Of marriage to her
after the death of her husband, but
that she rejected him and married Mr..
Wister. -. -.
After hearing several witnesses the
hearing was postponed On motion of
the attorneys for Mrs. Wister. Ru-
mors Of a compromise were denied by
attorneys for Mrs. Walker.
