THREE SHONTS WILLS
Two Filed in New York Divide Trust Fund Income Between Widow and Testator's Friend"

New York, March 17.-By strange coincidence, three wills of the late Theodore P. Shonts, president of the Interborough rapid transit compa ny, are filed here for probate.
 One will, executed in 1905, which was filed on behalf of his widow, Mrs. Milla D. Shonts, left the bulk of his estate to her and her two daughters. Minor bequests were made to other relatives.
 Two other wills, filed by Cornelius J. Sullivan, attorney for the executors, make provisions for a trust fund, the income from which is to be divided between his widow and his 'friend,' ' Mrs. Amanda Thomas. They also contain minor bequests to relatives.
 The first of these wills dated August 19, 1916, provide that upon the death of the benefciaries of the trust funds, the principal is to revert to the residuary- estate and be used for the erection of a memorial hos pital for the use of the employees of the Interborough and New York rail- ways company. The other will, dated January 6, 1917, contains sub stantially the same bequests as the 1916 will except that the trust fund is left upon the death of the bene ficia ries to the New York post-gra du- ate hospital to found a Theodore P. Shonts memorial' for the care of the Interborough and New York railways employees
