ADAMS’ ESTATE. Semsational Stories About a Missing ‘Will Denied. Reronts sent Frou THIS CITY CHARACTERIZED a8 CRUEL AND INPAMOUS—WHAT MR. ADAMS’ PHYSI- CIANS, ATTORNEY, AND PRIENDS GAT. Sensational stories have been sent from Wash- ington connecting the disappearance of Mr. Harry L. Adams, the bookkeeper of Tus EVENING Stam office, with the suit instituted recently against the estate of the late George W. Adams by Mra Kate L. Van Auken. Mr. Harry L. Adams and Mrs. George W. Adams are the administrators of the estate of Mr. Adams, who dled intestate. ‘The sult is rought to recover, through an equity Proceeding, certain property, which Mra Van Auken Claims the late Mr. Adams had in his pos- session a8 a trust, and the petition expresses a beliet that Mr. Adams, by will or other in- strument, before his death, arranged the matter £0 the property would be secured to her, but that She papers Red been removed from a sate. lepvstt box. ‘The stories telegraphed from Washington Set Out that an effort was made to have Mr. Adams change his will while he was on his death-bed, and that thts effort was defeated by the physician: Who Would not permit Mr. Adams to trouble with affairs of business, ‘and that at the last moment, when Mr, Adams was dying, Mrs. Adams expressed regret that he had not had time to change ‘his will. “Basing an assumption upon this that 9 Will existed, the stories go on to intimate that the administrators had made away with the document, and that Mr. Harry L, Adams, foreseeing a legal investigation, had fled vo escape the conse~ fas taa bead ite db in tas adler Ss ¢ off With the document in ‘he had gone off wi DENIRD BY MR. ADAMS’ PHYSICIANS. Dr. Chas. E. Hagner, who was the physician in charge of Mr. Adams in. his last sickness, when asked about this story to-day, characterized it as cruel and, so far as he knew, absolutely false. “Never, while I was in attendance in the case,” sald Dr. Hagner, “was any mention made of a will, and there was ‘no conversation with a lawyer about the matter. Mrs. Adams was completely broken down with grief, and gave no thought to money matters or wills, ‘or anything else, except her sorrow, It would have been inst Woman's ture to have thought or spoken of such mattters, and she did not speak of it.” Dr. Z.T. Sowers, who was associated with Dr. Hagner in the case, When asked regarding these stories, said he had never heard anything about a Will, OF about a lawyer having been sent for to change a will already in existence, THE STATEMENT BY MR. ADAMS’ ATTORNEY. ‘Mr. Benj. G. Lovejoy, who was Mr. Adams’ attor- ney, Said to a Sra reporter to-day; “It is regarded as unprofesstonal among lawyers of any standing to anticipate a trial in court bya ‘trial by: hewpa) per; but as the suit against the widow and children of the late Mr. George W. Ad- ams was instituted Immediately upon ‘the mys terlous disappearance of one of the nistrators, and the sensational event has been made the basis of the most malicious, scandalous, and libellous: attacks upon the memory of a dead friend, and up- on the character and conduct ot his widow who is mourn! the recent loss of both a beloved hus- band and little daughter, I think it a duty, asone Of the oldest friends of Mr. Adams, to avail myselt of this opportunity for contradicting the state- Tred to, ments ref wThe late Mr. G. W. Adams left no will; every ible receptacle was searched and none Was Found, “A tev days beter his death his wife sent for me, at her husband's request, to draft his will, and, at his desire, Messrs, Crosby S. Noyes and &. 4. Kauffmann, his friends and associates, ogther with his brother-in-law, Mr. James R. Young, and Mr. H. L. Adams, bookkeeper of THE EVENING Star and confidential business man of the deceased, were present. A change for the worse had taken, place. Mr. G. W. Adaths was not considered to be in that condition of clear and connected conscious ness which rendered him capable of waking a will, 80 we withdrew, and he soon afterward dicd. “The disappearance of Mr. H. L. Adams lias no connection with the case whatever. He was not related to Mr. G. W. s,and the destruction of awill could not have benefited him at all, His accounts as co-adininistrator are correct to a cent. “IU is alleged that Mr. G. W. Adams made a will before his departure tor Etirope, 4a year ago,"the N. Y. Times says. The tact is his only trip to Europe Was made eight or nine years ago, and whether he did or did not make a will 13 a question I cannot answer. Tcan state that no eifort was left un- ted to discover the existence of a will, and no such Instrument was found or has ever been found. “The gross and cruel reference to Mrs. Adams 1s @ disgrace to its author, Mrs. Adams ts the daughter of Hon, John Barclay, for So many years the distinguished Journal clerk of the House of Representatives, ‘The Barclay famtly ts one of the oldest and most respectable of the District, and Mrs. Adams and her husband lived together In peace and unity, moving in a conservative element of Wasbington society, and they who Were in the closest relations With them will be more than shocked at tbls attack, Mr. G. W. Adams was himself one of the most honorable of men, and dedicated his early life to the welfare of huis mother and the sister who brings this suit. DENIED BY MR. ADAMS’ FRIENDS. ‘Mr. Adams’ Intimate friends, who were well ac- quainted with his affairs, express much indigna- Uon at the stories that have been set afloat. Mr. F. A.Richardson,the Washington correspondent of the Baltimore Sun, who was one of Mr. Adams’ closest friends, said to a Star reporter to-day, In regard to the ‘tory published in yesterday's New York Herald: “Itis an tufamousslander. I have no hesitation in saying that there is not a particle of foundation forit. Mr. Adams spoke to ine at Cape May last summer about making a will, or arranging his affairs, but I believe he put 11 Off until it was too late, He had then no expectation of dying, but thought probably that it would be prudent to arrange lis affairs, I saw him at his house two weeks before he died, and he then sald that he ex. pected to be out again in afew days. He did not uben expect to die. Itis-very Ilkely that Mr. Adams made some arrangement of Its affal ore he went to Europe, ih 1878, as any careful man might do betore starting upon such a journey; but it he made @ Will then he sestroyed it afterwards, for he had a child born to him after that, Then he Would not have spoken to me last sum- mer about “inaking a wil! if there was one in existence. No, I do not believe there was any will in existence. As to the villainous stories about his private home relations,” said Mr. Rich- ardson, “they are absolutely false, Iv 43 said that Mr. Adams stayed away from his home on account of unhappiness there. Why, there never was a man more domestic, more fond of his family, than Mr, Adams. He never even dined away frou hotne, unless it was on some special occasion, and he used to remain at home evenings always until his family had retired. ‘Then, sometimes, he would stroll down town. Another statement is that he was unwilling to trust his wife withmoney. ‘That 13 as false as the other. He was generous to lav- ighness to his wife in regard to money. He sup- piled her liberally always—more lberally, I ven- Uure to say, than is usual with men of lis theome. You can see the absurdity of the story that Mrs. Adams has made way with her husband's will,” sald Mr. Richardson. “she could not have profited in any way by ‘such an act. She could not have recelved less than she does receive as his widow without a will, She would have been en- Utled to her dowry of one-third. If he had made a will she probably would have received at least half of bis estate, and it would be to her interest ita will existed to have {t produced.” Mr. H. J. Ramsdell, the well-known newspaper correspondent, who’ Was an intimate personal friend of Mr. Adams, sald, when he asked about these stories: “That story’is a cruel outrage on a defenseless Woman. I know that George W. Ad- ams never made a will. He told me so a short time before his death, Shortly after the death of ot | sa and want daughter he came to me and he wanted to make a will, tohave me assist in drawing it up, on account of my long experience a3 Register of Wills, He spoke of having Benjamin G. Lovejoy, bis attorney, draw up the will, Nothing further was sald abjut It for some time, but Just before he was finally taken sick Mr, Adams again spoke to me about the matter, but nothing was done. I am sure if any will had been made I would have known of it. ‘The stories about trouble in the tam- fly are all false.” Important Post-Office Changes. Mr. Thos. E. Roach, of Delaware, the chief of the bond division in the Post fice Department, has resigned and has been appointed to a third-class clerkship in the appointment division of the First Assistant's office, Morrillo Noyes, of Vermont, the superintendent of the division of post-office supplies, has been appointed chief of the bond division, and Jabez L.

The Public Printersaid that he did make some dis- charges last Saturday and he thought the number given was correct, but he had never said that any of the foremen had been asked to resign, and he did not think any of the foremea would say 80. “Though,” he added, “I would not hest- tate to ask for the resignation of foremen if I be- eved the efficiency of the office would De Pro- moted thereby.” Referring to the disch: Saturday, Mr. Benedict guid. there Were some detuocrats aide T4 the men discharged. “I have now before me,” he said, picking up letter from his @esk, “the letter ot a Bemocratic Senato hat I had found it necessary to Mr whom he (the Senator) had hal appanbea, ant continues: “But I fear he has brought 1¢ about.

Commander Chadwick, naval attache at the American legation In London, was one of the pas- sengers on the steamer Saale, which arrived at New York Saturday from Bremen, His visit to Uhis country is simply on a leave of absence after two years abroad. He brings with him no new plans for vessels, the latest designs purchased by the Government in England having beer sent over me time ago. “4] saw some of the tests of the new 110-ton gun in England,” sald Commander Chadwick, “and they were very successful, It takes thein over there about two years to build such a al- though Krupp might finish one in teen Months.
