THE BEET FORTUNE.
Has Been 0verestimated-Is Not ! More Than Fifty Millions.

London, July 1S.-Those who are In a position to give authoritative in formation regarding the amount of the fortune of the late Alfred Belt, the South African financier, and the terms of his will, have not yet given 1t to the newspapers. The pronounce ments of the latter. therefore, are purely speculative. Estimates rang ing from $125. 100000 to $625,000.- 900 have been published. but 1t will probably be found when the terms of the will are given out that MT Belts fortune was somewhat below $50, ,000, ,00O. About one-third of this amount 1t is expected will be be- uueathed to national purposes in Great Britain and South Africa, mainly of an educational character as was great part of the fortune of his most intimate friend. the late Ce- cil Rhodes MT Belt had several mar eral married sisters in Germany and Austria and. presumably, they as well as his mother and brother will inherit considerable amounts.

Rockport, Mass, July 1S.-A report to-day from the battleship Illinois, one of the fleet of warships assemb- ling here for naval manueIers, was to the effect that the 100 or more sailors who recently became i'll after eating liver, had greatly improved and were now practically well. None of the sail DTS was seriously affected, 1t was stated. The liver was received on the warship from Charlestown from q provision contractor who says that the meat was fresh when 1t arrived at the vessel, but that it might have become spoiled by being kept too long before 1t was served.
 A report which reached Rockport that a case of virulent diphtheria had broken out on the battleship Missouri proved to be an erroneous statement of the finding of two cases of humps among the sailors. This being con tagious the affected sailors were placed in quarantine.

WOMAN DROWNING IN JOHN DEE'S POND Was Discovered Just in Time By Patick Hackctt and Taken From
 the Water WENT OVER DAM ID RIVER Woman is Dependent and Dement,. ed-Said She Saw Dead Hus-
 band in Pond.

Mrs Ellen Murphy, who lives on Mill street, this afternoon about 1 o'clock attempted suicide by endea- voring to drown herself in John Bees pond in the eastern section of the city. She was discovered by Pat rick H. Hackett, who lives nearby. who saw her lying in the. water. The woman is Respondent and will in all probability be taken to the Brook side home. While MT Hackett was eating his dinner with his family he looked out of his window which over looks the pond mentioned above and said to his wife:
 What is that in the water down near the dam?"
 His wife thought that 1t was log, but Mir Hackett did not think so and sent his boy. Henry, down to investi- gate. The boy shouted that 1t was a woman. MT Hackett immediately hastened down, but the woman mean while had turned around in such a manner that she fell over the falls into the Mad river about twenty feet below. When Hackett reached the place she was in about three feet of water and had not he quickly got her to the shore with the help of others, who by this time had gathered, she would undoubtedly have drowned in a short time. After working over her for some time she regained conscious ness. She had very little clothing on, but some of the dwellers in the vicinity furnished her with some.
 She stated that she thought that she saw her husband, who is dead, in the water, so she went in to meet him. She was carried to her home on Mill street in wagon of the Platt Mill Co which happened to be passing there at that time. Officer John Bergin, who had been called to the scene of the accident, and Terry Lynch, who had been sent out from the police station. accompanied her. Later Superintendent Morris of the charity department was notified and the woman will undoubtedly be looked after.
 Mrs Murphy has been living of late on Mill street in one of the houses owned by Mrs James Behan. Only short time ago she buried her child. and as her husband and par ents are dead. it is believed she be- came tired of life and sought a watery grave.
 The woman came across to the pond by way of Scovill's ditch and would have undoubtedly have car ried out her purpose there were not several boys swimming in the ditch at the time. There were about 500 people around the pond shortly after the news went round that a woman had committed suicide.
