MRS. FIELD MUST PAY $4,000
Pre-Nuptial Settlement Liable I
Inheritance Tax.

Chicago, Dec. 24.-Mrs Marshall
Field must pay an inheritance tax of
$4,000 upon the Sl,000,O00 she re-
ceived as a pre-nuptial settlement
from the late Marshall Field. BY a
decision of the State Supreme Court
wealth thus given during the life OF
the giyer is held not to be exempt
from the inheritance tax. Inheri-
lance Tax Attorney Walter X. Lin
coin brought the suit
This is the only instance in the
United States where the property in
cuded in a pre-nuptial contract has
been taxed said Mr.. Lincoln. "The
Supreme Court has reversed the find
ings OF the New York Court of APP
peals, which exempted such property.
The Cook County court also is revers-
ed.
IF the court had upheld the argu-
ments of attorneys for the estate, it
would have opened the doors for the
evasion of the inheritance tax laws
by all large estates. 1t would have
left a method Of escaping the tax by
passing property through an antenup-
Enlargement instead of by will or
by the interstate laws"
The decision of the court closes the
tax appraisement OF the Marshall
Field estate. II was the second high
est appraisement In the United
States. That Of the late E. H. Har-
riman was the largest.

FOR LUCKY sALDwlNs MONEY
Sensational Suit Brought by Mrs.
Lillian Turnbull.

Los Angeles, Dec. 24-It was ex-
pected that the curtain would fall
yesterday afternoon on the chief at
traction in the Baldwin will contest.
The case itself, according to attor-
neys, may last two or three months,
but Mrs. Lillian Turnbull was ex-
pected to leave the stand for good
when court adjourned yesterday
Mrs. urnbull's four days cross
examination was completed Thurs
day All that remains is the laying of
foundations for impeaching her testi-
mony regarding the contract mar
riage, on which is based her daugh-
ters contest for a share of Lucky"
Baldwin's millions.
Mrs Turnburs four days cross
authenticity of the letters which the
defense expects to prove she admit
ted were genuine in her former suit
against Baldwin She admitted that
she had once been known as Mabel
Garrison, and that although she had
never taken proceedings to have the
alleged contract marriage to Baldwin
annulled, she married Dr. Turnbull of
Boston five years ago as Lillian Ash
ley.
Attorney McNab put several ques-
tions to the witness concerning the
conversations Mr.. Turnbull had with
Baldwin relative to the return of the
marriage contract. His certificate
she testified, had been taken from her
by the turfman, four days after he is
alleged to haye signed the paper
which said: Il take Lillian NJ. Ash
ley to be my lawful welded wife"
There were two or three converse
lions between u.s." said Mrs. Turn
bull, relative to the return of the
contract.
When | told Mr.. Baldwin had
discovered he had a wife living, he
frankly admitted that he had done
me wrong, but he said he was a Mo
hammedan and believed in having
more than one wife. He called me q
narrow-minded New England Puri-
tan but said he would give me back
the marriage paper on condition that
agree 10 live with him. He said IL
his wife would secure divorce, he
would make things all right and take
care OF me and my baby. When
/ refused to do as he said, he put
$3.50 on the table so that | could go
to him IL changed my mind"
did you take the money!" asked
McNab. "Of course / did," replied
Mrs. Turnbull, but | never went to
live with him."
Further queries brought out the In
formation that during the three
months they were together, Baldwin
gave Mrs. Turnbull about Sl25 in
money and bought her only a pair Of
shoes and few souvenir trinkets.
Mrs. Turnbull admitted having
once penned such n phrase as He
will find me glittering steel" In q
letter dated early in 1894 Mrs. Turn
bull wrote: My baby is a girl-Bea-
trice Baldwin-little Miss Lucky, for
she has her fathers disposition to a
IT.
Attorneys for the estate said that
they would seek to impeach the tes-
timony OF Mrs. Turnbull by placing
on the stand Judge Charles Slack OF
San Francisco and all the court Off
GERS who heard her testify In her
former suit and saw the letters intro
duced at that time.

May Have to Disgorse a Few More
Millions.

Millions.
Washington. Dec. 23.-Customs ex.
perts from the treasury and special
agents OF the department OF justice
are now making an investigation,
which promises to add another chap
ter to the story OF sugar frauds
against the government. An alleged
abuse OF the so-called drawback"
privilege at the port OF New York. is
under investigation and one official
declares the revelations promise to
put the government In position TO re-
cover Yearly as much as II did In the
underweight cases, when more than
100000 was paid 10 the treasury
When sugar is imported It pays a
duty, unless coming from the Philip
pine Islands and when It is manu-
featured into a product and In that
form exported, the duty is refunded
in the form OF drawback" except
one per cent which is retained by
the government to defray the cost Of
tariff administration.
Some Of the investigations are said
10 have shown that the government
has been defrauded in drawbacks on
syrups.

DOVE OF PEACE SAID TO
HOVER OVER RAILROADS

1t is being substantially rumored
that the dove of peace is lowering
over the Union Pacific and the Burl-
ington troubles in Greeley. 1t is
said thai branch line which was
to have been built by the Burlington
will now be dropped owing to an
understanding which has been
reached with the Union Pacific.
1t likewise appears that the case
of the Union Pacific against the city
of Greeley and the various railroads
is to be Indefinitely postponed. City
ATTORNEY Joseph C. Ewing was to-
day In receipt of a communication
from attorneys of the Union Pacific
to the effect that further evidence in
the case would be heard before Com
missioner Hinsdale on August
which was believed to be the date OF
the anal hearing of the case. AS q
result of this there is nothing but
speculation now as to the time the
case will come up.

JOHN DEBOO GIFTS A
BrG YIELD OF WHEAT

John Deboo of Fairplay district
west OF Greeley ia one OF the first
growers in the district to make re-
port on his fall wheat. He has fifty
acres not under the ditch and last
fall planted this to wheat. 1t thresh-
er thirty bushels to the acre. which
will be perhaps the largest yield OF
any piece Of dry land in the county
From ten to fifteen bushels will
more likely hit the average. and
while the dry land acreage is large.
many sections will not produce chic
ken feed. Mr.. Deboo's phenomenal
yield was due to intelligent farming
rather than accident. He prepared
the land with the same care that he
would for potatoes and then put a
4-horse team on drill. putting grain
grain into the ground AS deep as he
could sink It, The result was deep
root which found its way to moisture
and his grain showed no effects of
the drought which was plainly visi-
BILE in adjoining fields.
The Greeley tribune., 1910-07-21
WHEAT CROP THIS YEAR is
BELOW AVEl.AGE is REPORT
Especial to the Tribune)

Denver, July 4.-Reports reach
ing Denver from the wheat growing
districts of the state indicate that
the wheat crop this year, while 1t
will be below the average because OF
the continued dry weather, win be
much larger than expected.
Harvesting of winter wheat is now
about completed and farmers from
the dry farming districts report that
the yield will in most sections aver
! age fifteen bushels an Spring
wheat will not be so good, owing to
the drought that set in before the
grain had covered the ground. In
the irrigated districts the yield will
run from fifteen to forty bushels,
some of the farmers who depended
on a direct flow OF water from the
streams reporting considerable dam
age from the drought. The general
yield, however, will be far above
what has been expected.
