Catt Bwh New Drive for xflfl!lrhul Forrester Was Struck Next-otKin of Writer and Wife Reach Agreement on Disposi- \ tion of Estate. The question whether Chauncey ©. Brainerd, Washington correspondent of the Brooklyn Eagle and vice presi-] Edlth R..Brajnerd, died lh'l( in the Knickerbocker disaster will go un- answered. Without having recourse to a jury to determine this matter, on which depended- the disposition of a {6int estate of the couple valued at l*' 000, the next ot kin of the writer his wife have reached an am- Ic- le agreement and todly filed in the Probate Court a formal paper making equal distribution of the es- tate. The Brainerds made wills at the same time, naming each other as sole beneficlary of the estate. Arthur J. Sinnott was made administrator for both estates. Mrs. Adelia B. Gl“!erl. sister of Brainerd, is sole heir to his estate. She resides at Plainfield, J. Mrs. Brainerd was survived by. her moth- er, Mrs. Julla A. Jacobs of Mount Vernon, N. Y.

Rath. Attorneys Thurman, Bulkley and Quigley represent the administrator | of both estates. C. & P. AND U. S. AGREE ON TELEPHONE RATES Arrangements Made for Costs for Service Lines to Govern-' ment Departments. The federal government and the Chesapeake and Potomac Telepbone Company have reached an agreement over the rates to be pald by the gov- ernment departments for service and special lines. Several weeks ago it seemed that no agreement would be reached and the Treasury Deportment had ap- pealed to the Public Utllities Commis- slon to hold a forinal public hearing to settle the questions at issue. It now seems probable that a hearing wlll not be necessary. Charles T. Claggett, division mana- ger for the company in W ington, stated today that the changes to be made for the government will apply to private commercial concerns using the same classes of service. —_— ALCOHOL PLANT CLOSED.
