TROUT RUNNING BETTER THAN FOR YEARS, SAYS
 VETERAN SPORTSMAN

Trout have been running better this year than for the past two sea- sons, = said Dan Smith the well known sportsman today. While the water in the streams is still too high for the best results it has been clear and is receding steadily. Unless weather conditions change this weeks catches should be among the records of recent fishing expeditions for the speck1ed beauty
 Among the big catches reported to date William Nichols a veteran fish erman, and a friend returned yester- day with string of 20 which tipped the scales at nine pounds. These are considered big fish. Harry Way se- cured eight nice ones some days ago.
 Most of the fishing with notice able results has been done in the Rfdgefeld district, although good re- ports are coming from the Chepaug valley
 The law has not yet gone off of pickerel and bass.

MAY QUESTION BRAZIL
Government Likely to Ask for
EXPLANATION in Dollar Case.

Washington, Sept. 94.-Refusal of
the Brazilian government to graft
clearance to the steamship Robert Dol
lar, which sought to raise the Ameri-
can flag before leaving Rio Jsneiro,
may result in diplomatic correspond
ence, it was intimated to-day at the
State Department.
Solicitor johnson said the incident
was not closed when the steamer left
port under the British flag, but he did
not say what course this government
might pursue. II was suggested, how
ever, that the Brazilian government
might be asked for a formal explans-
ton.
Clearance was refused on the
ground that recognizing the change in
registry might infringe on Brazilian
neutrality.

HOLME CUT OFF
in WILL OF WIFE
Former Judge Gets No
Part of Estate Estimated
at 81, 100000.
PAIR HAD LIVED
APART FOR YEARS
Many Public Requests Made by
TeStatOr-ReSidue Goes
to Cousins.

Leicester Holme, former judge Of
the City Court, secretary to the late
Mayor Hugh ]. Grant and a man who
held other public offices, is entirely
cut OF in the will Of his wife, Mrs.
Lizzie Hastings HOlme, filed in the
Snrrogates' Court yesterday. The es-
tate OF Mrs. Holme. which she left to
relatives friends and public institu-
t,ons' is believed to amount to at
least $l,O0o,0OO. She inherited about
that much from her father.
Mrs. Holme, who died on June 20 in
London, had lonP lived apart from her
husband, although his home Is also in
London. For several years her name
was associated with that of james T.
Dunn, who committed suicide in 1911
IN Atlantic City after his wife. Mrs.
Sarah Stella Dunn, had sued Mrs.
Holme for $250,00O for alternating the
affections of Dunn. When that case
came before the Supreme Court for
trial in 1912 judgment was given in
favor Of Mrs. Holme by default,
nelther Mrs. Dunn nor her attorney
appearing in court, That was the last
step taken in the suit. Mrs. Holme,
VINO had been i'll prior to the trial,
made a deposition in the case in Eu-
rope.
While Dunn and Mrs. Holme were
in San Francisco they bought the
Savoy Hotel in that city. They came
East in 1908, after travelling in
Mexico and elsewhere. The suit Of
Mrs. Dunn followed a scene on the
Boardwalk at Atlantic City, where she
came face to face with her husband
and Mrs. Holme.
Mrs. Holmc began a divorce suit
against her husband, but discontinued
the action in 1905. She mentioned in
her will that although she was "con-
scious" of the fact that she had a hus-
band living, she had left him nothing.
This provision also included several
OF her relatives, including Charles II.
Hastings, who lives at the Ritz-Carl-
ton.
The public requests made by Mrs.
Holme were: Society for the Proven
tion Of Cruelty TO Animals, $4,000;
New York Founding Hospital, $4,000;
Five Points House Of Industry, $40, 900:
City Hospital, Los Angeles, $4,000, to
endow the Lizzie Hastings Bed" To
two servants Mrs. HOlme left $4,000
each. To Mrs. Rebecca NJ. Tallman, an
aunt, the testatrix left 100000 and
her personal effects, including jewelry,
with the exception of a pearl neck
lace, a diamond necklace, a pearl col
lar and diamond collar, which are to
be converted into cash. Mrs. Tallman
is also to have the income from 800 70
