arrival here on Thursday of Donald Harper. an
international lawyer, who has Offices in Paris and

in the case before the Surrogate here will be on
July 80. but, according to rumor among resi-
dents Of the American colony in Paris. as well as
among lawyers in New York, there Is a chance
that there is legally will at all. The conten-
ton of some Of the contestants. it is said. Will be
that the will was made out in Paris in the Amer
lean form which Is different from the method re-
oured under the French law Several lawyers
said Yesterday that the action over the document
would probably result in leading case on the
question of domicile.
Mr. Harper represents Nine. Gabrielle Josephine
GuiIlemin, the adopted daughter OF Mr.. Hart and
the wife of Jean Guilemin, who is counsel to the
French Embassy at Vienna. After her marriage
she estransed her father In cutting on Nine
