S6,OO0,OO0 EACH.
Heirs of the Late Nelson Morris
Divide the Estate.
Contest Over Property Worth
$3O,OOO,OOO Is Ended.

chicago, Oct. 15.-The Tribune to-
day says: A $3O,OOO,0OO will contest
that was argued and settled out of
court was disclosed yesterday when
the last testament of Nelson Morris
the packer, was filed for probate As
result OF this remarkable situation
the principal provision of the will has
been nullified. Instead of carrying
out an arrangement which would have
heid the bulk of the estate in trust for
at least Is years, the widow and her
four children will divide the property
equally among themselves at once.
instead of 100000 and an annuity
of $4,000 during the next twenty
years, each of the five principal heirs
VIII receive at once $6,000,000 each in
cash and securities. Furthermore it
became known that before the will
was filed each of the heirs secured
title to a fifth part of the estate The
property was allotted in equal shares
to the widow and the children in
binding agreements signed by the ex-
ecutors of the estate. When the trust
arrangement had thus been wiped out
the will was filed.
Ever since Nelson Morris died near
ly two months ago a serious, though
friendly debate over his will had been
going on in the family. On one side,
seeking to abrogate the trust plan un-
der which they would not have come
into their inheritance for from fifteen
to twenty years, were ranged the wild
ow and three of the children-Mrs.
Maurice L. Rothschild, Mrs. Henry C.
Schwab and Ira Nelson Morris. On
the other side, seeking to carry out
provisions of the will under which he
would have been in control of the es-s
tate stood Edward Morris, the eldest
son and the present head of the Nor
ris packing corporations. 1t was sim
ply case of divergence of opinion.
The argument over the disposition of
the packers millions reached a point
where lawyers were retained by the
opposing factions IN the family and
long drawn out legal contest was
threatened. Finally Edward Morris
met the views of the rest of the family
and an amicable agreement setting
aside the trust plan and providing for
an Immediate division of the property
was signed by all the heirs the busl-
ness however. will be continued as
at present with Edward in control.

FOUND REBATINC.
Commerce Commissioner Lane
Has Caught Southern Pacific.
Road Paid $4,000 to Favored
Shippers i'm September.

Chicago, Oct. ia Washington spec
ial to the Record-Herald says:
Interstate Commerce Commissioner
Lane, who went to California in re-
sponse to reports from agent of the
commission declaring that the Southern
Pacific Railroad company was giving
rebates and that proof could be obtain
ed has returned to Washington. The
commissioner believes that fragrant vio-
lation of the law can be proved, and it
is the present understanding that as
soon the facts collected are submit
ted to the full commission, certlhcat ton
of the illegal operations of the railroad
will be made to the department of JUS
tice with a request for prosecution of
those responsible. The law, as it now
stands, provides two year tmprison-
ment for each offense.
Whether Mr.. Hartman can be indict-
ed will depend upon whether his respon-
sibility for the alleged violation of the
law can be demonstrated. Members of
the interstate commerce commission be-
lieve it can. They say that as the pres
ident of the Southern Pacific company
he either knew or should have known
what his subordinates were doing:
According to Commissioner Lanes in
Vestigatio1, rebates We're being paid as
late as September "a of this year and
during that part OF September up to -ha
oath the road paid out in rebates to
1dNOFcu SHIppeIS $4fyVoO. Inc oN1oCilCS
upon which the interstate commerce
commissioners will base their charges
was found in the books pf the company
itself.
1t is stated that upon the last day
CT Commissioner Lanes stay in San
F'rancisco a freight official of the South
ern Pacific offered himself as q witness
for the government, it is asserted, with
the hope of obtaining immunity. In
nearly every case in which rebate
cbar1es were made the SINNERS in
Volved are said to be rich and powerful
corporations. A partial list of these in
cludes the Union Ice company, the Cali

Thief Escaped.

says he shot his mother in defending
her against a burglar. He is being
held for investigation.
Smiley was the woman's son by her
first husband. She was separated from
her second husband and the boy and
his mother lived alone in the south
eastern part Of the city. Smiley follow
ing the shooting gave the alarm to the
nelghbors and although search was
made Tor the burglar promptly no trace
or him could be found. The boy, when
taken to the station and questioned told
a dramatic story of how he had killed
MS mother In trying to defend her.
Smiley said he had been awakened by
the screams of his mother, who told
him there was a burglar in the house.
The woman had grappled with the man
and urged Smiley to get his shotgun.
A moment later the burglar had freed
himself and was making an attempt to
escape. when Mrs. Scholfer ordered
Smiley to shoot. AS Smiley raised his
gun, single barreled affair, and fired,
the burglar, he says, pushed the woman
in front of him. She received the full
effect of the discharge, dying within a
few moments. The burglar ecaped,
leaving no clew.
Mrs. Scholfer was shot in the breast
and never spoke after receiving the
wound. Smiley said he shot in the
dark and did not see the burglar, but
heard him speak.
The last heard of the stepfather,
William Scholfer, was from Minue-
apolis, Mimi, six weeks ago, when a
letter was received from him stating
he was employed by a furrier here. He
is fur cutter. He has been away two
years. After an investigation the coro-
ner found Mrs. Scholfer's money and
jewelry untouched.
