Will of S. ]. Tilden,
Who Died in 1886.
Before Court Again
Third Successor Trustee To
Be Named for Estate Once
Valued at Sl6,OOO,OOO
Now Held at 100000

The will of Samuel J. Tilden, who
died thirty-five years ago, came into
court again yesterday in the latest of
a succession of controversies over it's
provisions.
The present dispute is in process of
adjudication by Surrogate Slater Of
Westminster County at White Plains.
The Surrogate has agreed to appoint d
third successor trustee for management
of the residue Of the Tilden fortune,
now estimated at 100000. The estate
IN 1886, at the time of MIR. Tilden's
death, was estimated at 100000. 1t
was reported in 1902 by Lawrence Cod
kin, then referee, to be worth $500, 900.
Inc distinguished lawyer who was
mainly instrumental in overthrowing
Tweed and whose legal achievements
were famed throughout the civilized
world, could not make viii that
would withstand attack by a minor
be &C ci"~v.
Mr.. Tilden wished to devote the
\ IA of his large fortune to
City. He made requests totaling
81 800 900, including all those who had
blood claims, however remote, upon
him. The will was broken by
nephew dissatisfied with his share of
the fortune. 1t was due to the self
denial Of Mrs. Maria B. Peyton, Mr..
Tilden's sister. that $2,0OO,0OO, her
s.are under the judicial decision fol-
lowing the will contest, could be de-
voted to carrying out Mr. Tilden's
purpose.
The original executors of the estate
were John Bigelow, Andrew Fl. Green
and George w. Smith. The latter had
been Mr.. Tilden's secretary more than
twenty years. Louis f. V. r ndolph
succeeded Mr.. Green, who was muir
dered BY an insane negro, and Charles
T. Mclean, one time justice of the
Supreme Court, wa sappointed to sue
ceod ohm Bigelow.
Charles L. Strong and Charles F.

agree on third to complete the trus-
tees. Mr.. Smith, last survivor of the

heels If he had ho would have swal-
lowed a culvcrin and died the death
before leading them to Dead Mans
Chest.
AS it was, however, he made straight
Tor the trapdoor which constitutes the
outer defenses Of the pirates lair.
Haste was imperative if he was to
warn his comrades of the danger that
threatened, and, without a glance be-
hind him, Walk the-P Plank" raised the
trapdoor and dropped into the six
foot pit which is the antcchamber of
Dead Mans Chest
Pcerlng after him the detectives saw
the pirate wriggle into burrow, not
more than eighteen inches high, which
led straight into the side of the hill.
That burrow was no place for man
who has passed the physical cxamina-
ton of the Police Department, but the
doughty detectives realized that an
attack on pirates den entails hard
ships, and into the burrow they wrig-
gled, one after the other. The grunts
and heaves with which they progressed
the twenty feet Of the CONSTRUCTED tun-
mel gave warning of their approach.
Instead of crying "Flee or prepare
to fight for your livcs!" as he intended
to do. "Walk-th Plank" merely said:
Gee, here's the ccps!" as he dropped
from the tunnel into the circular cham
Der in the heart of the hill, which was
Dead Mans Chest itself.

Fred Nervo and Walter Rhcin, who are
fifteen years old, to Louis Prignan ard
Lawrence Parez, who are thirteen and
twelve, respectively, sat transtixed
Rocco, who also was there, could not
so much as murmur yo-ho. They were
done for and they knew it and gazed
reproachfully at the bottle of rum
which sat darkly in recess, still UNI
opened.
The next moment the enemy was
upon them. They struck the jolly
Roger without so much as firing a shot.
To the vast relief of fourteen parents
the whole crew was captured and the
lair, where they had been passing their
evenings, revealed to the world.
When the story had been tod in
Children's Court every pirate was
paroled in the custody Of his parents,
who agreed that the first task Of atone
ment should be the filling in of Dead
Mans Chest, from inner chamber to
trap door, without so much as removing
cutlass or cigarette stub.

Prison Patients Who Fled
Through Sawed Bars Still
at Large and a Double
Inquiry Is Under Way

The three men who escaped Thursday
night from the prison ward at Belle
vue were still at large last night. The
three policemen whose sole duty it is
to watch over the prison ward have
been suspended and charges of neglect
OF duty will be preferred against them.
1t developed yesterday that two men
aided the delivery. One engaged the
taxicab at Thirty-second Street and
First Avenue and had himself driven
TO a point near the entrance to the
Morgue, on East Thirtieth Street. The
Taxi had no sooner stopped than four
men, three of them IN pajamas and
slippers and the fourth in street
clothes, came out.
The fourth man, who contrived the
escape from the prison ward by fling
through the bars OF q window, evidcnt
~ knew his way through the maze of
the hospital passagcways.
1t is believed that the quartet ~,
coming down the iron stairway to the
ground turned through the milk hail
toward the First Avenue side. From
there they went north to the mems dor
