WILSON CONTINUES
TO Be FACET|OUS

Seagirt, N. j., July 1.-'They're COM
Governor Wilson's comment today upon
his gains at Baltimore. But at that
we are doing better than last week.
During the week we gained SO votes.
Today alone up to the present time we
have gained H. The Wilson lines are
holding solid. the gain very satisfac-
tory"
Governor Wilson has become so ac-
customed to the suspense that he does
not mind the sensation. He was in
good spirits all day, but declined a
special invitation to umpire a baseball
game which the cub reporters played
on his lawn
Governor Wilson sat on his porch
and watched the game with interest,
and when 1t ended after the forty
seventh run he said one of the plays
reminded him of Roosevelt's attempt to
steal third in a squeeze.
To the cubs who besought an ex-
preston of his opinion on the ma
tional situation" the governor declared
that the only thing he could say was
that 'he was making a riot of silence
in the sacrifice column"
During the latter part of the day no
sent a telegram of encouragement to
his New Jersey followers at the Armory
hall Once during the day he conferred
by long distance telephone with Will
liam F. McCombs, his campaign manager
at Baltimore, about the "putouts" Sew
eral old friends and there were many
congratulations rendered.

.FRENCHMAN SEEKS
ESTATES IN AMERICA
State Treasurer Receives
Letter From Canadian
Lawyer

Montgomery, July 1.-(Special Estate
Treasurer John Purifoy has received a
letter from Jules St.-Germain, of Saint
Hyacinthe, Quebec, asking for informa-
ton relative to the estates of Jean Au-
doire and Jean Bienvenue. who emigrated
from France to America about a century
ago.
Treasurer Purifoys correspondent rep
resents himself as the legal representa-
tive of Eugene Audoire, who claims to be
the only heir to the estates of the two
early emigrants to America Both Jean
Audoire and Jean Bienvenue are supposed
to have left great wealth, and to have
died intestate. They were the great I'M
cles of the claimant to the estates.
According to Treasurer Purifoy's cor
respondent. a search will be made over
America to find out IL any of those es-
tates exist at the present time In the
opening paragraph of his letter, Mr..
Saint German says:
II have the honor to apply to you in
the name of Mr.. Eugene Audoire, pro-
prietor of the estate of eau. Berson, in
the department of "Gironde," France, to
enquire If your government is not hold
ing, waiting for the lawful heirs to pre-
sent themselves to claim them, the es-
tates of Jean Audoire and Jean Bein-
venue. who emigrated from France to
America--the former about 1879 or 1890. the
latter. about 1915 or 1920, and who never
returned to France"
Treasurer Purifoy declared that he
knows OF no such estates, and gave the
letter to the press in order that the mat
ter might be given necessary publicity

In the 500 meters event; David s. Cald-
we'll, Massachusetts Agricultural college,
and Walter Mcclure. Olympic A. C, San
Francisco, In the same event. Herbert n.
Putnam, Cornell university. and n. j.
Patterson, Chicago A. A. in the 1900
meters.
Many Americans were among those who
welcomed the first detachment of the
British athletes who arrived at headquar-
tiers. The Englishmen numbered 40 and
included the principal stars. The remain
der of the English and Canadians will
reach here tomorrow. Anglo-American
relations promise better than in the Lon
don Olympiad.
The only American player In the ten
mis- competition, Theo. Roosevelt Pell,
whose entry through Geographic error
had led Stockholm TO believe the ex-
Presidents son was coming, lost his
final match, Heyden of Germany winning
2-6, rs, So, and rs.
Walter Winans, the American crack
who was counted upon to win the indi-
vidual competition in ese running deer
shooting event, withdrew because he was
far below his usual form. This competi-
ton was at 100 meters. Richardson, COM
mander of the British army ri1emen re-
ferring to the fact they were unable to
approach the American scores, said that
the result was further proof of the great
inferiority of the British open sights and
the necessity for a new rifle peep.
