FOR MAS0NS AT HEARING OF WILL Court May Decide Claims Of NeaT'S
 Relatives Tomorrow
 ESTATE WITHOUT A LAWYER

 poets Will to Be Admitted-Few Ap- plications Made-Other Matters. That there will be no lawyers to represent the estate at the hearing to be held in the probate court tomorrow concerning the validity of the will of Judge Frank s. Neal was the state ment made today by A. H. Condell, representing the Plainville Trust com pany, the eXecutor named in the doc ument. Officers of the bank believe that there is not chance of breaking the will and they do not propose to burden the estate with any unneces- sary expense. Consequently counsel hsa not been engaged.
 Attorney Wallace Moyle of New Ha- ven yesterday entered an appearance in the case as counsel for the Ma sonic Charity Foundation, which is named as one of the benef1ciaries of the will Other heirs are not expected to be represented by lawyers.
 The Masons under the terms of the will, are to receive the residue of the estate after bills are paid and the other legacies distributed. As any eX- pense entailed in preventing a break ing of the will will fall on the estate, thereby reducing the value of the resi- due, officers of the foundation be- lieved it would be we'll to have lawyer look after their interests.
 Attorney P. F. McDonOugh of New Britain, will appear in the interests of Henry Neal and Albert Bradley, first cousins of Judge Neal, who were not remembered in the will and who are expected to contest it's admission.
 Representatives of the trust com pany claim they have no idea as to what grounds the disappointed rela- tives hope to advance as proof of the illegality of the will They declare that the document itself will show the men, tai condition of the testator to be per fectly sound and they claim to have plenty of proof that it was properly signed and witnessed.
 Chief among the witnesses for the executors will be pr. J. c. Tanner, Judge NeaIs physician and one of the signers of the will, George D. Mastin and George Fait. They also attested to the genuineness of Judge NeaPs signature.
 First cousins of the testatOr who re- ceive legacies under the terms of the will are anxious to have it admitted although practically all of them would benefit financially if the estate was settled as intestate. There are eight first cousins and as they are the near est of kin their shares would amount to about $S,000 each, providing the estimates that Judge Neal'@ estate will inventory at from $62,OOO to $64OOO are correct Except for Mrs. Good rich, who was given s10,OOO, the other relatives received less than $5,000 each.
 In case the will is admitted tomor- row and the contestants take an ap peal to the superior court the settle ment of the estate is liable to be de- layed for several months. In the document Judge Neal directed that all his property be turned into cash. This will necessitate the sale of land and buildings, including the Neal res idence on East Main street.

 "The Irish Revolt"
 The recent revolt in Dublin, Ireland. and the causes which it Is alleged led up to it, will be told of by Cornelius Lehane, the socialist orator and Irish patriot, at Central Square this evening. The speaker will give an address on ''The Irish Revolt at 8 o'clock.
 Lehane is regarded as one of the best speakers engaged in expounding socialistic doctrines and he invari- ably attracts large crowds. This has been particularly true since the un- successful Irish rebellion, Lehane devoting a considerable part of his addresses to condition in that country.
