By the Asnociated Press. CHICAGO, May 29.—Interest in the fate of the “orphan” million-dollar es- tate of William Nelson McClintock has come to the front again as the result of the filing of an inventory by the Northern Trust Co. Although the bulk of the fortune, valued in the inventory at “approxi- mately $1,000,000,” was left to William Darling Shepherd, now on trial on a charge of murdering McClintock, his ward, no disposition of the estate has been made, probation of McClintock's will having been held up pending the outcome of the trial. Three possible dispositions of the ill- fated million are seen by followers of the case. One is that the estate even- tually will go to Shepherd, regardiess of the outcome of his trial. A second is that it may be distributed among cousins of young McClintock. A third is that Isabelle Pope, who Clintock’s fiancee, may quall Meanwhile, the estate, which con- - | forgery.
