JAKE GREY SWISSHELM. AFTER STEWART'S MONEY. IIow Many Only Cousins a Dead Milllonnire Muy Have. New York Sun, May 25. The rumor that & number of persons profess- ing to be helrs of A. T. Stewart were preparing 1o contest bis will and to oust Judge Hilton, was mentloned to the latter yesterday. “That's all; nonsense,” sald Judge Hilton, laughing. *I never heard of 1t uutll Isaw it In print. There are lots of peoplo who wonld like to get o little of bismoney. Look at these let- ters,” pointing tv about fifty tied with a red rib- bou. “That's w mere fraction of those that Mrs. Stewart and wmyself recelve every day. I dont have time o read my own st all. ‘They sre rleh, thouglh,” continued the: Judge, laughing. “Just look here,—just lisren to this." Then heuntied the bundle and plcking up letter after letter at random, read extracts from them, lnughing at thelr contents. They were a motley lot, written by widows, vld maids, poor girls, and men of all conditions iu lfe. Some of them were from persons of high respectability; from ministers and business mnen, certifylng to the honesty nnd Emn! charncter of third persons who claimed to e relatives of Mr. Btewart. One old Jady in Keokuk, Ohlo, sent her phioto- graph, und ss3erted that she was Mr, Stewart's cougin and only relative. At the end of her letter was a “a certificate of “honesty, integ- rity, and veracity,” with the uutogruphs at- tached of some of the most respectable busk- ness men in Keokuk, {ncluding one firm that 1s o customer of Stewart’s wholesale store. “You sce,” suid the Judge, laughing, “that each oue claims to be the only relative, and will not admit the clalins of the othera.” Some of the letters addressed to Mrs. Btewart contained cxpressions of condolence and ‘%flel for the death of her hushand and the “dear relative” of the writers. One from a femule cousin i Ireland began: “I huve learned with great griet of the death of my dear cousin,” &nd ended with expressions of sympathy with the widow, The writer evidently was cunning- l{ withholding her request for money untfl after she hod opened the way to the widow’s heart, “ They usually write three times, these fel- lows do,” safd the Judge. **The flrat time they clalm relntionship; the sccoud they complain because the small trouble of answering them hus not been taken; and the third, they scold aud threaten.” Onc *“cousin,” who had *‘distinct recollec- tions and proof* of bhaving worked for “‘my cousin™ ouce, openly demanded, “What ure ou golng todo for mei” “And If you ain't roing to do anything for me, write and let me ow §t.”” Another wrlter seemed to expect that Lfs “recollecting distinetly ' that lic had “given one of Mr. 8¢wart's relatives the small sum of — dollurs,'’ entitied him to ehare in the great merchant’s eatate. Among the most curious of these cplstles were two to Mrs, Stewart from s spiritunl me- diuw fn Boston. They were written in ghastly red Ink, and professing to be communications direct from the spirit land, were_sigued, * Your dear hasband, A, T, Btewart,” In these letters Mrs. Stewart was directed to bestow money up- on certain persons, and to conduct herself gei erally according to the views of the % spiritual author, I hear that you have been usked to 0 to Europe,” suld the * spirit,'! fn one of the ettaxs, ** with him I called my friend.” “That's me,” broke In Judge Hilton, laughing as he read, “but T had no thought of {iulng.“ “r advise you," continued tho letter, ¥not to go, fur you never would return allve.” In another luce the Yapirit! of the dead merchant assured iis wife that he wus tot us rich in the spirituul \vurll\.l ushebad been fn materdal things on eartl, Another medium in Baltlmore sent Mrs. Stewart & communication from the spirit land " signed by her husband. In this, with jrrent gravity of language, she wus directed to Jurcliuze veveral thousand boxes of Dir, Muore's ever pills and copics of his medical book, which wero to b distributed among the poor glrls of the cstablishment, fn order that they might know what medicine to buy. **The Judge will urchase thein,” continued the spirit, gravely, d the .Imlge\nuglltd heartily when he read ft. According to this * unnuluu(wflun{' the dead merchant is op}m:ased in the *epirit world” with the care of the *‘poor girls® ‘who ueed help on enrth. One caviller in his letter advised Mrs. Stewart that Bo enw mnsn could advise her properly in regard to her busiuess, und requested her to consult his friends, the Rev. Steplien 1. Tyng and Prof. Elfe Charller, fn regard to the man- agewment of her affuirs, Most of the elafmants professed to be cousins of Mr, Btewart. Some sald thoy had discovered with eurprise thelr relationship after the great merchuut's death; others had heard their g'u‘mm say that they had arelative *“in New ork named_ Stewart,” a great dry-goods mer- chant "*; and others gave accounts of the Stew- art (mnl\)’, and offered to prove thelr relation- ship. Li many cases the writers mwls no eon- cealment of the fuct that thelr object was to get money, and the demand for help was suime- times rudely and often pathetieally made, “The grief of some of these fellows affects me," suld Judge Iiiiton, It Is really quity sud, and reminds onc of Mark Twaln weeplng at the'grave of Adam.” One writer sssured Judge Hilton that he must be the long lost brother in search of whom be had spent mavy yeass. Another informed him that he knew “where $20,000,000 worth of stolen diamonds were concealed, and for remu- neration would reveal hls secret. A thind had lnburluuali' worked up the Hilton fami) tory, add foundhimsc(f and the Judge to lated. * This fs tho sort ot atutl they me," sald the Judge, by the busketful, und thcly are the fellows who talk of coutesting the will, 1 ume.
