the same dislike for vacancies,

WIDOWS SUIT
IS CALLED
ILLEGAL
Trust Company Alleges Mrs.
Ethel L. Fulton Made Ante
NuptiaI Agreement.

Mrs. Ethel L. Fulton had no legal
right to institute suit to compel
delivery of one-third of the estate
of her late husband. Horace K.
Fulton. who died June /, last, to
her, according to the American
Security and Trust Company. exec
utors of the 100000 estate left by
Fulton, in their answer filed in the
District Supreme Court yesterday.
Mrs. Fulton sought to enforce her
dover rights in the personal prop
erty, which is valued at 1887, BIT,
and declared that the will and
codicil executed by the testator I'M
lawfully deprived her of her lawful
share.
It is claimed by the executors
that an ante-nuptial agreement had
been entered into May 20, 1912,
when Fulton was seventy-five years
old, which agreement prevents the
widow from making any claims
against the estate. Mrs. Fulton re-
ceived, according to a copy of the
agreement: Capital Traction bonds
amounting to $4,000 and relin-
quished all her dover rights. BY
the terms of the will of her
husband she received $1,000 and the
home at 1474 Harvard street, north
west.
The bulk of the remaining estate
was devised to Fulton's daughter,
Mrs. Florence NJ. F. Carmody, and
his son, Horace M. Fulton.

To IDENTIFY
BURGLARS
Men Accused of Robbing Zirken
Fur Store Held in
Montreal.

The tell-tale evidence Of their
finger prints has resulted in the
detection of two men under arrest
in Canada who are wanted by police
here to answer to a charge of hav-
ing broken into the fur establish
ment of H. Zirken, 821 Fourteenth
street northwest, June 8, 1922. In
addition to the charge OF burglary
they will have to face a charge OF
jumping their $4,000 bonds, the po-
lice say.
A week ago Detective Sergeant
Fred Sandberg received from the
authorities at Montreal the finger
prints of two men held there under
a minor charge. The prints were
catalogued and were found to be
identical with those obtained from
Frank Whalen and Harry Wilson,
who were arrested here when a
group Of policemen surprised them
in the Zirken establishment. Mr..
Sandberg said that there was no
possibility of his having been mis-
taken in his Identification of the
pair.
The prisoners gave their names
as Harry Phillips and Frank Braird
when they were arrested in Canada.
Charles Hood went their bond here.

BARREL SAVED FROM FIRE
HAS DETECTIVES GUESSING

WILKES-BARRE. Pa. Aug. Zo.-
The changing of a barrel of whiskey
to corn syrup, back again to whis-
key and finally to water. is giving
detectives of the Lehigh Valley Rail
road here much concern.
The alleged whiskey came over
the Valley tracks, with fifty-four
other barrels as far as Old Forge,
where the consignment caught fire.
All but one barrel burned. An in
vestigation was conducted, and it
was reported that the consignment
was not whiskey as first reported,
but corn syrup. Later the one bar
rel which was saved, but missing,
was said to contain whiskey.
The police began a search and
finally located the barrel only to
find that 1t contained water.
