by the brothers from dividends which

were secretly and irregularly paid in
addition to regular dividends Thomas
A. Sperry died in September, 1913, and
his will was proven in a New Jersey

the purpose of keeping the true earn

Mrs. He1nrning to
Demand Share of,
Husbands Estate
Action to Establish Status
as Widow, Says Attorney;
Suffolk Sheriff Pushes In
quiry in Brokers' Staying

Although the will of Henry G. Hem
ming left all his possessions to his
son, John G. Hemming, Mrs. Helen
Henderson Hemming, widow Of the
murdered broker, will demand share
in the estate, according to her attorney,
Norman W. Kerngood, of this city.
When the will was filed for probate
last Tuesday it was reported that Mrs.
Hemming would not make a contest,
but the statement in the petition refer
ring to her as "the alleged widow" is
said to have caused her to desire to
establish her legal status in court.
Mr.. Kerngood declared that Mrs.
Hemming's marriage to the broker was
legal, inasmuch as it took place more
than five years after the disappearance
of her second husband, Richard V.
Thorne.
Sheriff John F. Kelly. of Suffolk
County, yesterday went ahead with his
Independent investigation into the
murder of Hemming, who was shot and
killed by Frank Eberhardt, caretaker
of Mrs. Hemming's home on Duck
Island, near Northport, L. /. Sheriff
Kelly said he desired to question Mrs.
Hemming on points raised in the stat
ments he received Wednesday from
young Hemming, the latter's wife and
Joseph Schmidt, chauffeur of the auto
mobile in which the Hemmings went to
Buck Island on the night of the
shooting.
Principal of the conflicting state
ments which Sheriff Kelly said he
wished to clear up were those Of Mrs.
Hemming and her daughter Helen.
Mrs. Hemming, he said, testified at the
inquest that she had not telephoned to
Eberhardt, instructing him not to per-
nit her husband to enter the house.
whereas, the Sheriff declared, the
daughter testified Eberhardt had re-
ceived telephone message from her
mother.
Sheriff Kelly also called attention to
the testimony of the chauffeur, which
was at variance, he said, with Mrs.
Hemming's statement that she had at
tempted to raise her husband and
shield him after the first shot was
fired.
81 am also interested in ascertaining
where the gun used by Eberhardt came
FROM" said Sheriff Kelly. at was a
brand-new weapon and had never been
used before Eberhardt fired at
Hemming."
Records of the County Clerks Office
revealed yesterday that judgment for
S540.20 was entered in the Fifth Dis
trict Municipal Court on May Is last
in favor of Henry G. Hemming and
against Mrs. Helen Henderson. Ac-
cording to the attorney who handled
the suit for the broker the amount
represented loans made by Hemming to
Mrs. Henderson prior to their mar
riage, which took place May 81.

Madison-Approximately 6.97O cars
Of potatoes, 26.9 per cent of the 1920
crop, remained in the hands of pro-
ducers in Wisconsin, Apr. /, Joseph A.
Becker of the Wisconsin cooperative
crop reporting service has announced.
This compares with 1900 cars a year
ago, 60 per cent of the 1919 crop, and
$500 cars two years ago. Low prices
throughout the season have held back
the hauling OF potatoes. Because of
the dull market and low prices, it is
doubtful if all the $4,000 cars of Wis
consin potatoes viii ever be marketed,
the reporter said. 1t is estimated that
to date ga per cent OF the United
States grade No. l potatoes have been
fed to livestock. In addition, $40 per
cent of the grade No. 2 and culls have
been used as feed.
