IN GOULD ESTATE
Lady Dunsford Expected to
BE Heaviest Sufferer From
Decision of Referee.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, November 14-The
New York Times says today that Lady
Dunsford. formerly Mrs. Guinevere
Sinclair Gould, second wife of the late
George Jay Gould. and her three chill
dren by Mr.. Gould, will be the heav-
lest losers under the recent decision of
referee James A. O'Gorman, holding
the four trustees of the Jay Gould es-
management Of the estate, according
10 information obtained from q lawyer
in the case.
The largest winner, according to the
same authority, will be Frank NJ.
Gould. only son of Edwin Gould The
seven children of the late George Jay
Gould by his first marriage. the five
chlIdren of Anna Gould the Duchess
He TalleyrandD and the two children of
rank Jay Gould also will gain by the
decision, he said.
Surcharge Not Computed.
Just how much the four trustees
VIII have to pay into the Jay Gould
estate as a Surcharge of the referees s
decision will not be computed for some
time. 1t has been estimated at $50
100000 by Walter B. Walker, counsel
Tor Frank J. Gould The lawyer who
discussed the effect OF the decision OF
the various Gould heirs used s4s.-
100000 as the figure for the sake Of
convenience.
on that assumption. he said. the
four trustees-the George j. Gould
estate. Howard Gould. Edwin Gould
and Mrs. Helen Gould Shepard-would
have 10 pay 100000 each into the
Jay Gould estate
Jay Gould had six children, two of
whom, Frank j. Gould and the Duchess
de Talleyrand, were not trustees.
Will Be in Six Parts.
The S4S.000000 paid into the Jay
Gould estate. the attorney said, would
be! divided into six equal parts. and a
larger interest in $4,000 would be
turned over to each Of the children of
Jay Gould.
In the case of the late George J.
Gould, the principal of his $4,000, 900
share would be divided into seven
equal parts among his children by his
1rst Wife. the late Edith kingdom
Gould These seven children, there
fore, would gain more than 81 600 900
EACH by Referee O'Gormans decision.
Lady Dunsford's children will not
share in this division. the attorney
pointed out. because Referee O'Gor-
man said some time ago that they
We're not entitled to share in the late
Jay Gould's estate. They and their
mother have claims only to the late
George j. Goulds estate. which con-
sists principally of S14, 900, 900, in the
State of New Jersey. 1t was pointed
out that under the latest decision of
Referee OtGorman the payment of
S12,000.000 by George J. Gould's es-
tate to Jay Gould's estate would leave
only s2000,000 to which Lady Duns-
lord and her children could lay claim,
and that if the total surcharge should
be. more than $1,000 900 their claims
to George J. Gould's estate might be
wiped out altogether.

new YORK COOKERY
LACKS INDIVIDUALITY
Menus Reveal Delimoncio Steak as
Only Item of Distinctly Lo-
cal Creation.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, November 13.-New
York's food is suggestive of every
| where except New York. The visitor
| returning home from d visit to the
metropolis may often speak of fine
| cookery found here, but praise for the
most part will be for the carrying out
of another's recipe rather than for
originality.
But one name of New York tradi.
| ton is to be found-the DelmonicC
steak. The rest either IS of foreign
| birth or in that nameless category
represented by the roast beef sand
wich. Except for few lone sentinels,
the city's restaurants have lost their
individuality.
The cuisine of a cafe in many a
continental city has made it famous,
and many Of them memorialiZe their
chefs along with their statesmen and
writer's, but in this respect New York
stands out as the one erratic child,
although It feeds the most. 1t seems
to many traveller that New York Is
always eating. Restaurants are le-
gion.
Those catering TO the public taste
have attempted To put a finger on the
reason for New York trying to feed
each man the food to which he is ac-
customed rather than endeavoring to
teach him new delights. Some have
argued that it is the cosmopolitan
character Of the clientele: others that
the typical New Yorker is the cause.
Doubtless the Gotham menus are but
another item in this, a melting pot of
the States.
One Of the most common dishes
claims two ancestors. In restaurants
which do not bear the dignity of a
CONVERT charge 1t is Hamburger, as
German as Limburger cheese. Else
where one orders a Salisbury steak
and pays honor to that English lord
who, by having his meat chopped be
fore cooking, approached closest in his
day to predigest food.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, May 18.--In today's
bond market the main tendencies were
maintained from the week before
There was unusual activity at high
prices in foreign government issues,
United States loans held around top
figures, while the higher class cor
porate investments felt again the
stimulating effect of the easy money
conditions.
French Bonds Active.
The French bonds were heavily dealt
in, especially the Z per cent, around
90. The 71as had a large size turn
over at and just under par and the
8 per cents were quoted above 103.
The stronger support for the French
dollar issues, despite the uncertainty
in the action of French francs, indi-
Gated confidence that the new French
finance ministry will accomplish a
great deal for French finances.
Austrian Is were very strong again,
up to 80. Department of the Seine
Is was up point at 90. Paris, Lyons
and Mediterranean 6S and Is were
both in demand at higher figures.
Belgian government bonds were fraC-
tionally lower, sympathizing with the
decline in the Belgian franc. Bolivia
Ss at 80 were off a half point. Copen-
hagen 5i2s We're strong. At 80 they
were up a half point.
