Lawyers Undertake Job
of Dividing Mccormick
Millions After DiUOrce

| Rockefeller, Jr., are the only children
Of the aged fnancier.
BOTH EAGER
TO KEEP HOME.
One report asserted that the only point
at issue in the settlement is the posses
sion of the Mccormick home at Lake
Forest, a North Shore suburb. Mrs.
Mccormick 1t is understood, retains the
town house in Lake Shore Drive, but
wishes the Lake Forest mansion also.
Mccormick, who now occupies the Lake
Forest home, is said to desire to retain
it.
The financial settlements, 1t is declared
by friends, do not contemplate any pro-
vision for the Mccormick children, Fow-
Ter, Murie1 and Mathilde. 1t is under
stood the will Of Mr.. Mccormick and a
trust fund established by John D. Rookie
Teller for his grandchildren, provide for
them.
The custody Of the children was not an
issue in the suit. 1t is understood they
will be allowed to decide for themselves
which paren' hey wish to adhere to.
Miss Muriel Mccormick has been the al
most constant companion OF her father
for many years, while Fowler also has
spent most Of his time with his sire.
Miss Mathilde is in Europe attending
school.

While on Vacation

WOOSTER, Dec. 29.-Byron s. Baker,
Justice of the Peace in Chester township,
decided the other day to take a vacation,
but, as he is an important cog in the
machinery that operates the village of
Lattasburg, the thing could not be ar

CHICAGO, Dec 29.-Lawyers are res
Ting today with the problem of dividing
one of the largest fortunes in the world
as the aftermath of the rapid lire divorce
obtained yesterday by Mrs. Edith Rookie
Teller Mccormick from Harold F. Nc
Cormick, head of the International Har-
vester Company.
Settlement OF the vast properties IN
volved, it was learned, has not even ap-
preached completion and it may be
months before the final details Of adj
justment are worked out. No mention of
property settlement was made in con-
nection with the Sdivorce proceedings.
Both Mr. and Mrs. Mccormick main
tanned silence.
TOO PERSONAL"
SAYS MCCORMICK.
1T is entirely too personal a matter to
talk about" was the word sent to news
paper men by Mccormick while Mrs. Nc
C0rmick refused to issue a statement or
to talk with interviewers.
The head Of the Harvester Company
and his former wife were attendants last
night at the performance Of Salome by
the Chicago Opera Company. Neither
gave any indication of perturbation over
their domestic disruption. They occupied
boxes at opposite sides Of the Diamond
Horseshoe" and neither manifested by so
much as a glance any knowledge Of the
presence Of the other.
According to friends OF both Mr.. and
Mrs. Mccormick, the property settlement
will involve estates amounting to mil
lions. McCormick's fortune IS estimated
at $4,000 600 while no one knows how
much Mrs Mccormick will inherit from
her father, John D. Rockefeller, the
worlds richest man. She and John D.

Prehistoric Mounds of
Illinois to Be Pr0bed
Archaeologsts to Investigate Mysteries of Famous
Earthworks Undisturbed Since Built by Indians
Centuries Ago. Fear Relics Will Be De-
stroyed If Owners of Property Sell Out.

it has been figured, would have re.
CURED the services of 2,400 mound
builders working 10 hours every day
for two years, to collect and pile up
into this large hill, with its fiat top
and terraces.
1t is called the monks mound be-
cause the order of Trappist monks,
in 1904, built a mission there and the
name Cahokia comes from the tribe
of Indians met by LaSalle, the
French explorer, in 1851, when he
passed through that part of Illinois.
The cubical contents cf this pile is
greater than that of the pyramid OF
Cheops. Scientists say that the Ga
hokia are identical with the strife
lures which the Spaniards under
Cortez found the Aztecs we're using
for their religious edihces an, cere-
monies in the City OF Mexico in the
early part of the 10th century.
Views of Race Differ.
Archaeologists are not of one mind
concerning the people who built
mounds similar to the Cahokla
mounds which are found in other
parts of the United States, prin-
cipally i'll the Mississippi basin and
the gulf states. Some of them con-
tend that many of the relics found in
the mounds indicate higher degree
of culture than was possessed by
Indians who were living when
Columbus discovered America and
that the builders of the mounds were
driven out by the later Indians and
finally became extinct, leaving the
mounds as the only evidence of their
existence. Others believe that the
American mound builders were
Aztecs who found their way north of
Mexico along the Mississippi river.
The conclusion, however, reached
chiefly through the Investigations OF
the Bureau of American Ethnology
and now generally accepted, is that
the mound builders were the ances-
tors of the Indians found inhabiting
the same region by the first Euro
pean explorers.
Period Undetermined.
The period during which mound
building lasted cannot be determined
with certainty but scientists are of
the opinion that many of the mounds
were built a century or two before
the appearance of the white man be-
cause when they were first observed
by white men they were covered with
a heavy forest growth.
The close proximity of the Caho-
kia mounds to East St. Louis gives
the land on which they stand con-
siderable value for factory sites and
it is feared by archaeologists that the
owners of the property, who have re-
fused to sell, cannot much longer re-
sist the appeals of the real estate
men of East St. Louis. If they pass
cut of the hands of the present own
crs there is little doubt that they will
be destroyed. Within recent months
a campaign to save the mounds has
been in progress and has interested |
many people, not only of Illinois and |
Missouri, but of the east.
