LAST OF GOLD STAR
MOTHERS IN FRANCE
French Never Tire Of Greeting
Women on Visits to
Sons Graves.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PARIS, September 9.-The last party
of gold star mothers and widows which
will visit American military cemeteries
on this side of the water this year ar
rived here this afternoon. They crossed
on the s. s. Republic, disembarking at
Cherbourg.
Since last May the Invalides Station
in Paris has witnessed weekly q new
set Of faces of American mothers and
widows. The novelty of this gesture of
the United States Government in send
ing these women to the tombs. of their
loved ones never seemed to wear OF
with the French. Through the Summer
there were crowds at the station to see
the trains come in and there were al
ways crowds at the tomb of the unknown
soldier when the mothers and widows
assembled there to place wreath.
A total of 1864 made the pilgrimage
this year, 1,049 fewer than had Signified
their intention to come. At the start
there were 1850 eligibles, leaving
1884 yet to come.
Col. Richard Ellis is already laying
plans for next years visitors. The
largest parties are expected in 1881,
many having waited to see just how the
Army would care for the mothers. The
1882 and 1888 groups will be smaller.

MRS. ELKINS WITHDRAWS
CONTEST OF SONS WILL

Mrs. Halle Davis Elkins of this city
yesterday withdrew her caveat to the
probate of the will of her son, Stephen
B. Elkins, who died last October in New
York. Mrs. Elkins had charged that
her son was not capable of making a
valid will because he had been suffer-
ing from severe illness. She also &C.
cused Mrs. Evelyn I. Martin of Hollis,
Long Island, of undue influence in con-
nection with the execution of the will.
Attorney Robert F. Cogswell, repre-
senting Mrs. Elkins, in announcing the
withdrawal of the caveat, explained
that it is the result of a compromise
the terms of which by agreement of
all the parties are not to be made
public. The estate is valued in excess
of $4,000.
Davis Elkins, former Senator from
West Virginia and brother of Stephen
B. Elkins, is named as executor of the
will, which provides life annuity of
$1,000 month to Mrs. Martin, gives
her an apartment at 381 Park avenue,
New York City, and 1000 acres Of land
in Virginia.

after several months of operation.
There are some police officials who
think that the officers riding around in
car will lose the personal contact with
the residents on their beats, which has
proved so helpful in the past in pro-
ducing information in times Of emer-
gencies.
The automobile patrol idea scored a
point today, when James Howell, coll
ored, Is years old, of 1915 Seventh
street, was arrested Immediately after
hurting brick through the window
of the Fritz Jewelry Co.'S store, at
1880 Seventh street.
Officer Hears Crash.
Policeman j. L. Taylor was driving a
police patrol car along Seventh street
early today when he heard the crash
and saw Howell standing in front of
the shattered display window. The Of
ficer leaped from his machine, placed
the man under arrest and took him to
No. 2 station, where he is being held
for investigation.
Howell Is said to have told officers
that he looked carefully around to de-
termine If there were any policemen
near before he threw the brick, but did
not suspect that the approaching auto
mobile was police patrol car.
