 The estate, surrounded by romance. end handed down hy Prince Wolfert Wobbcrt, of Holland nearly three centuries ago. is finding new claim ants in various sections of the coun- try. and international complications may develop before an agreement is reached that will result in staisrac- tory and equitable distribution of the legacy. the value of which is os- timatcd to exceed $l0000,Ooo.
 In addition to the money involved. the title of "Quceu of the Cnnibal Isle" hangs in the balance. awaiting settlement of the vast estate.
 Mrs Noltr wife of prosperous ranchcr here declares that she has equal claims with Mrs. Laudrock to the island with its great groves of rocoaunt. pineapple and brcadfruit palms, coral reefs gleaming pink along the shores. and plantations of sugar and rubber trees. all within the princely domain
 A romance that shows princesses royolted at parental decrees long be- fore the days of the modern suffra- gist is responsible for the contest that threatens now to break all rec ords for claims and counter-claim in the annals of disputed inheritances.

 When Mrs. Nolte learned that Mrs. Landrock was leaving the United States for Ogau to claim the estate she announced her intention of i'm mediately beginning legal contest for the fortune.
 By what right does she go to take possession of this island when there are others who are also of the seventh generation from the Dutch princess?" Mrs. Nolte demanded.
 "I do not understand how Mrs. Landrock. of all of us, is to be the only one to receive a share of this estate" Mrs, Nolte said. q am of the seventh generation and can prove it."
 Threads of descent from Prime ass Anneka have been followed with great persistence because of the gi- gantic prize that will fall to the seventh generation" The World war that upset even neutral Holland postponed some of the legal fire works that will he dispayed in the many-sided contest for the millions left by Prince Wobbert.
