late Sir John Murray Scott. Sir John
left nearly $5.OOO,OOO to Lady Sackville OF
Knole Park. Kent. wife of Baron Sack
vile. q relative of former British min
lister to Washington.
Malcolm Scott brother of Sir John
opposes probate of the will on the ground
that Baron and Lady Sackville used un-
due influence in order to secure the bulk
of the estate. He also claims that a
codicil, for which he has offered $4,000
reward. was executed after the drawing
of the will for which the Sackvilles seek
probate.
By order of the court some time ago
an envelope left by Sir John MURRAY
Scott addressed to Lady Sackville was
opened, but 1t has not been disclosed
whether ii contained the missing codicil.
At the opening of the case for Malcolm
Scott today his counsel outlined the gen.
eral nature of his case.
Charge Against Sackvilles.
THE Sackvilles,'' he said. spent more
than ten years in obtaining complete as
cendancy and domination over Sir John
Scott. The nature of that influence was
such that although they were not rela-
tives they induced him to finance them
for enormous sums during his lifetime
and to leave to them the greater part of
his estate of $5,OOO.OOO."
Sir John died January II. 1912, after
a most remarkable career. He was the
son of a Scottish doctor of very hum
BILE position. The doctor CHANGED to
be called in to attend the Marquis of
The marquis and his kins-
man. Richard Wallace. took a liking
to him and Wallace appointed DR..
Scotts son bis private secretary. He
served in that capacity for many years
and eventually induced Wallace to pre-

Scott was made a baronet
Sir Johns fortune was beQueathed

IS ROBBED Of HER PURSE
WHILE WAITING FOR CAR
Miss Mary CoIquitt Suffers
Loss of ST and Bunch
of Keys.

While waiting for a car about 1876
o'clock this morning, Miss Mary Colquitt
cashier at the Shoreham Hotel had her
purse snatched from her by young col
ored man. Miss Colquitt was standing
on the corner at 18th and II streets op-
posite to the hotel, when the man, whom
she had observed only a few moments be-
fore approached and before she realized
his purpose had snatched the purse and
ran.
Cries of Catch thief" We're shouted
after the rObber and several persons, in
cluding the conductor of the car which
Miss Colquitt was about to board. gave
chase but without success. Report of
the robbery was made to the police and
one man was arrested on suspicion by
Sergt. Lee. Miss Colquitt saw the pris-
oner at the station today, but could not
iedentify him.
Was Homeward Bound.
Miss ColQuitt was starting for her
home, il6 9th street northwest, when
the robbery occurred. She had observed
the colored man standing near her, as
stated and, she says. had determined
not to take the same car as he. fearing
he might follow her wnen she got off.
When the car arrived she hesitated, not
knowing whether or not the colored man
intended to take that car. 1t was at this
moment he snatched her purse.
Fortunately, said Miss Colquitt, the
purse had less than a dollar in it, besides
a bunch of keys.
A description given by Miss Coiquitt
was furnished to the several police pre-
cincts and a reward was offered for the
apprehension of the footpad, who was
not more than nineteen or twenty years
old it is believed He wore dark clothes
and a cap and had a slouchy appearance.

Glass Answers Critics.
In lengthy statement Chairman Glass
of the House banking and currency COM
mittee replied to criticisms of the bill.
He professed to- be amused at the in
cOnsiStencies" of those opposed to the
bill. He said that, while the bankers in
New York were assuring Senator Owen
that the measure would contract the loan
ing power and reduce the cash facilities
of the country banks. Senator Burton, a
member of the monetary commission
which framed the Aldrich plan. was
charging that speculation would be in
creased and the currency inflated.
Mr.. Glass said that imitation would be
much less than under the Aldrich plan,
and defended the scheme of regional re-
serve banks.

During the excitement Representa-

rescue the fair name of the keystone
state by saying that the legislature of
Pennsylvania had just appropriated
$4,000 to take care of those veterans
who would be at Gettysburg and who
had not been estimated for at first.
He said the state now had put up

Representative Mann of Illinois poured
oil on the flames when he said that
Pennsylvania had tried to get the Sec
retary Of War to exceed his authority
and spend more money for tents and
subsistence than he was allowed to
by law.
Representative Fitzgerald. always an
economist. had something to say, and
Representative Burke of Pennsylvania
said to him:
Isn't it true that you warned the

party would never stand for deficit
created in the interest of entertaining
the veterans of the blue and gray

1t is the opinion of we'll posted men at

in behalf of immediate currency legisla-
ton will prove effective in promoting
early and favorable action upon the adj
m1n1stratiOns currency bill That the

hand.
Even those who have held back in the

where they will henceforth have to pull

The President has made the bill an
administration measure outright. and an
nounced in no uncertain terms that those
who are not for it will be regarded as
against it; there can be no temporizins
He has also declared that he will not
consent to rejection Of any vital feature
of the bill.
All of this spells speedy passage of the
bill, it is said by responsible men in both
houses. They declare that the admins
