she NJ FROM JAPAN
Dead Mans Kin Prepares to Fight for
Part Of His Immense Fortune,
Beinr Dissatisfied With
Legacies.

New York. April 24.-It is a little
early for the mother. sisters and
brother of James Henry (~"Silent")
Smith, who died in Japan, to gather for
the purpose of disputing with his
widow over the $50, 000, 900 or $75, 000, 900
which he left behind.
II there hould be 4 posfhumous heir
or heiress,, what then?
1t is asserted by persons in this city
who are in Mrs. Smiths confidence that
such a complication is to be expected.
Ii Smith died childless n without
expectation of lawful issue from his
marriage with Mrs. Rhinelander Stew
art, whom he married after her divorce,
there would be a likelihood that his
relatives could contest, with some
chance of success, a will leaving all his
property to his bride-widow.
But the advent OF a son or daughter
would change the situation vitality.
Cominn From Orient.
Mrs. Smith is accompanying her hus-
bands body home from Japan. Her
late husbands relatives expect to meet
her party in Chicago and urge claims
to a share of the immense fortune
No details as to Mr.. Smiths will have
yet been made public. 1t has been gem
orally supposed that he left a suitable
provision for his blood relatives. but
that the bulk of the estate is left to his
widow.
1t is likely that on his marriage Mr..
Smith was advised by lawyers to de-
wise a certain share to his wife n
the bulk of the remainder to any chill
dren that might be born to them.
Headed Off by Heir.
If the blood relatives, dissatisfied
with the size of their legacies, We're to
attempt to break the will they would
be headed off" by the advent Of an
heir porn after Mr.. Smiths death.
For, by breaking the will, IL they
could, they would cause the property,
aside from the Widows dover right in
the real estate, to descend in bulk to
the son or daughter yet to be born.
And if this son or daughter were to
die, his or her property would revert to
Mrs. Smith. the widow.
OF course. unless the child lived even
for however a brief after birth,
the position of the blood relatives, and
their chances of breaking a will which
might not be deemed just to them,
would be as if the child We're never
born at all.
George A. Smith, a brother of the
dead man, formerly lived in Chicago,
but has been in Philadelphia for sew
eral years. The nephews are William
S. Mason, vice president of the City
National bank. in Evanston, and
George G. Mason of Aberdeen. S. D.,
superintendent of the Aberdeen division
