M CLAIMANTS MOOT QUESTION
 OF LOST ESTATE
More Than 150 Descend aEts Of Old Aristocrat
 .zAt Meeting Here

If Martin Key. that affluent Man. haitian property owner of the latter half of the eighteenth century, could have strodc propitiously into the very modern Chamber of Commerce audi noon,, even his velveteeD brooches would have been overlooked.
 Two burning questions which Key night easily have strengthened out were being propounded.
 In -the first place the gathering in thsaHaditerium, about 150 descendants ofEthe aristocrat, wanted to know what beeame of the land grant King George HI gave him shortly before the origi- nal Boston tea party.
 And secondly they would have liked tos have determined what happened to tffs 99-year lease for the 47 acres of Nfw York which is now creating con- cefn.
 Evidently Key was careless about such matters. Perhaps he figured that the strip of land. now Wall street. which somebody had purchased from the Indians for string of Woolworths, was incidental.
 dt might have been to him. but not tot the 150-odd branches of his family tree who were in attendance at the meeting.
 Battle Royal
 And over these two questions they battled
 During the sessions q dispute arose regarding the next move in stalking out the claim on Vail street. Some of the reiatlves thought q representative should be sent to Washington and New York to search for records.
 Mrs. E. o. Saunders of Fairfield. made caustic remark about parking 2 grip at the Waldorf" Hollinsworth Barrett, Shreveport, La, the repre- sentative in question. came back that he didn't stay at the Waldorf"
 After some discussion, the matter wasxpnt to vote. Somebody shouted No at the top of his voice, but that did not count in the final tabula- tion.s
 Tat completed the business mat ters.~ According to the plan. Barret, the Son of J. T. Barret. former lieu tenant governor of Louisiana, is to make the trip to New York for the purpose of looking into various rec ords: On his way he is to stop at Washington where, it appears, Emmet heyysa government employe at the bu- reau@of engraving and another of the descendants, has been collecting data on his own hook.

Expert testimony by physicians and brain specialists consumed practically all of Thursday in the trial of Joe C. Cushman, charged with the murder of his wife while in a drunken frenzy January 16. The case is expected to go. to the jury sometime Friday after noon. '
 The defendant still maintained that he knew nothing of the murder until told of it by deputy sheriffs after he became sober, following his arrest and confinement in the county jail. >,
 Witnesses included Dr. B. c. Bat son, Dr. F. D. McCaleb, Dr. W. B. Hardy, Dr. L. c. Woods and Dr. J. A. Meadows.
 Lad Testifies.
 Joe Pugh, 13-year-old boy, was ask, ed to testify late Thursday afternoon althugh he had not been regularly sub. poened as a witness. Assistant So licitor J. lP. Mccoy objected to his tes. tifying on the ground that he had been in the courtroom while the other witnesses were testifying, but his ob. jectiOn was over-ruled by Judge lief lin.
 The boy testified that he saw Cush- man walking along the road in a de. pressed state just short time before Mrs. Cushman was killed, and said he was not acting natural and seemed about to cry" He added that he did not think the defendant was drunk at the time.
 Cushman is expected to take the witness stand Friday morning and testify in his own defense.

ACCOUNTS VARY
 ON NIGHT FIGHT
Raymond Watts Not Ex- pected To Live AS Result
 Of Blow On Head

Conflicting stories were related to police Thursday regarding the circum- stances surrounding the injury early Thursday morning of Raymond Watts, 20 years old, 1000 Joseph street, who lies in Hillmaff& hospital suffering from a severe fractured skull resulting from a blow from some. blunt instrument in the hands of William B. Martin, SO9 Twentieth streeEssouth.
 < Up to late hour Thursday night Watts had not regained consciousness, and it was believed at the hospital that his wound would prove fatal. Martin is confined in the county jail on a charge of assault with intent to murder.
 According to a story told by Esther Shelton Martin, who claims to be Mar tins wife, the fight took place in front of the home of Josephine Lyons, Avenue F and Twelfth street, where she and Watts had gone in search of Martin following a dance Wednesday eve ming. He drove up to the house at the same time they did, she claims, and as soon as she saw him she hid beneath front porch. She was able to see Martin strike Watts with an an automobile crank, she declares. Fol lowing this Martin fired three shots from a revolver at the prostrate man, she says, all of which went wild.
 Woman Not Wife
 Martin declares that the woman is not his wife although she is said to have told the police they were married in November, 1922.
 He claims self defense in the case, saying that he did not strike Watts until the latter had attacked him with long knife. Even then, he maintains, he did not use=asa-.a auto crank, but de liyered the blows with a rock that lay near by, and he denies firing shots from revolver.
 Mrs. Martin was fined $5 on charge of drunkeness anl' E. Roy Spear, said to have been tlle- driver of the car in which Mrs. Martin and Watts went to the Lyons house, was taken to the city jail and charged with assault and bat tery.
 Spear and Martin appeared before Recorder Burns in night police court Thursday, but their preliminary hear ing was adjourned until April 3.

Edith Gould Asks Fortune
 Under Magic French LalD

to the sad tale of M. Rosemark. Franks lawyer.
 When she left the bed and board of the millionaire she had $1O0.0O0 which she had ''held out of the house keeping money" he said. One reason, apparently, why Frank won't pay the 10000. 900 is that he remembers how much Edith's upkeep cost in her days of wifehood. t
 "She sometimes bought three hats daily" the lawyer declares, rolling his eyes to heaven at the thought. He added that after she parted from Gould the millionaire received a bill for 42 hats.
 But hark, Edith's lawyer thunders a defense.
 Gould is a prince of dollars, who worships dancing girls" he retorted For 10 years he had the benefit of hear beauty and charm" He added that it was better, in these gay days, to be king of dollars" that to be a constitutional king. Just to be mean he ehucked in the remark that marry ing dancing girls was family habit Of the Goulds.

VERSAILLES. France. March % Edith Kelly Gould is needy. The sale of her jewels hasn't brought her enough to live on, and anyway -some women need more money to live on nowadays than does royalty"
 That was the pitiful story told by Edith's lawyer. Henri Robert, as the actress ex-wife of Frank T. Gould began suit here to gain half share of his fortune, estimated at more than $4O, 900, 900.
 Under French law the claim is per missible. Edith says that as both she and her ex-spouse lived in France, the gold is hers. Frank says they were married in Scotland, and thus the magic law won't work. The court is trying to decide which of these facts prevails, amid a storm of mutual re- crimination from lawyers of the dis tinguished ex-sweethearts, neither of whom appeared in court Wednesday to watch the fun.
 Edith is not so needy, if one listens

BRYAN TESTLFIES
 AT RATE NEARING Says Steel Tariff To Texas Not
 Unfair To St. Louis

GALVESTON, Tex-. March .O.- The so-caIled Texas common point grouping of freight rates should not be broken up; but should be continued in both state and interstate rates, H. C. Eargle, traffic manager of the Beau mont Chamber of Commerce, testified at the Texas-O Oklahoma rate hearing here today.
 The witness said on direct testimony that he could not see where any dis crimination against Texas points pre- vailed against the present rate struc- ture. He said that Dallas especially enjoyed new freight rates and had an enviable geographical location.
 Present freight rates on iron and steel products from Birmingham. fac tories into Texas-do not create an un- fair discrimination against St. Louis iron and steel plants. J. W. Bryan of Birmingham, Ala, testified at the hear ing today. The St. Louis complaint charged discrimination. The Dallas complaint also charges discrimination against Texas in favor of competing jobbing cities in adjoining states.
 Mir. Bryan said he thought present rates into Texas should be continued and that the grouping of Texas points under a blanket rate was the wisest way of establishing rates into Texas

WASHINGTON, March 20.-Hopes of the navy department for an operat- ing base at Alameda, Cal, were dashed to pieces when the House naval com mittee failed to approve the develop ment on the ground that the present needs for that vicinity could be taken care of at Mare Island.
 Development of the proposed base over a twenty-year period at cost of $2O,OOO,OO0 was endorsed by high naval officials, including Assistant Secretary Roosevelt who contended it was necessary for the Pacific defense.
 It was indicated that advocates might attempt to rebew the fight in the Sen ne when the naval omnibus bill, in which the Alameda project is incor- porated, comes up.
