Stiassny Estate in Dispute
Supposed Suicides Aunt OPP
posed as Administrative

Counsel for Mrs. Mollie Goldstein
told Surrogate Fowler yesterday the
estate of Mrs. Sarah NJ. Stiassny, whose
death by shooting in her home in West
Ninety-eight Street, although appar-
emily the result of her own act. has
been the subject Of rigid inquiry by
the District Attorney, amounted prob
ably to S25000O. Mrs. Goldstein. an
aunt of Mrs. Stiassny, seeks appoint
ment as Administrative.
Isidor Hirschfeld, co-executor with
Richard Epstein, nephew of Mrs.
Stiassny and principal beneficiary
under the will, opposed Mrs. Gold
stems application and said the estate
probably would be insolvent. Foreclos-
ure proceedings had been instituted, he
said, against some of Mrs. Stiassny's
property. and the personal estate would
be insufficient 20 cover the deficit.
Surrogate Fowler said he woul d with
hold his decision until December %,
when the result of the District Attor-
ney's inquiry probably will be known.

Characterization given the report OF
the committee to the Board of Esti-
mate yesterday by Controller Prender-
CAST. In its report the committee said
il had failed to reach an adjustment
with the New York Central Railroad;
and proposed that the board rescind
the old city ordinance of 1847 under
which the railroad received the right
to use the city streets.
Ex-Judge Ransom, counsel for the
Public Service Commission, explained
that by resembling the ordinance the
way would be opened to determine In
the courts just what the rights of the
railroad were on the West Side. He
declared that the board had full power
TO revoke the ordinance. Controller
Prendergast questioned the legal right

between the admiral and Chairman
Hurley FASTENED the formers decision
to retire.
He would have been forced TO resign
in any case within few weeks, accord
ing 20 those who know his physical
condition. but the recent action Of the

CATHOLIC LADIES SCORE ANOTHER
 SOCIAL SUCCESS

A most enjoyable social event was the card party and dance given last evening in the Req mems hail by the Altar society of the Catholic church.
 The weather was rainy, stormy and generally disagreeable (some- thing very unusual in WrangelD but it would take something more than a downfall of pitchforks, alligators and nigger babies to keep Wrangeli people away from one of these Catholic functions which are always so thoroughly enjoyed. It has become an es- tablished fact in WrangelI that the Altar society never dis appoints.
 A game of progressive whist was the amusement in the early part of the evening. When scores were counted prizes were awarded as follows: ladies first prize, Mrs. Hankins; ladies con- solation prize, Mrs. M. 0. JohE- son; mems first prize, MT. Butt; mems consolation, Mr. TarasoVis.
 Following the card party there was a dance downstairs which was enjoyed as thoroughly as was the whist party. During the evening a delectable lunch was served.

THREE HUNDRED DOLLARS REALIZED
 ON INLAND SOX

Three months ago Mrs. Wini. fred Hyland of Telegraph Creek made hurried business trip te Seattle travelling on the popular Princess Sophia. On her way down she knitted a pair of soX which she presented to a friend aboard toraffie for the Red Cross. The gentleman who was the win. ner gave the footwear to a fellow passenger, who was to return north on the same boat, to be rallied over again. Since then the ''Hyland" sox have been raffied several times.
 On the down trip of the Prin. cess Sophia leaving Wrangell October 19 the sox were raffled again and were won this time by H. 0. Harrison of the Hudson Super Six Automobile company of San Francisco, who returned them to the Sophia with S9.00 in them to start the raffie on the up trip. Mr. Harrison will be re- membered as the big game hun- ter who was in Wrangell with Mrs Harrison on their return from the Cassiar district.
 In three months the sum of $310 has been raised on Mrs. Fly lands sox and their earning capacity is not impaired in the least. But their history has to be explained every time they are rallied in order that some Scotch man may clearly understand that the 'Hyland' sox are not being represented as Highland" sox.
