SAN RAFAEL, Dec. 23.—lired of being put off by reiterated promises of payment, and long continued evasion of the same, the creditors of the late Dr. Richard T. Freeman of Sausalito have petitioned Su- perior Judge Angellotti to issue an order citing Miss Jane Lee of Sausalito, the ad- ministratrix of the deceased doctor's es- tate, to compel her to show cause why the affairs of the estate have not bee ttled. The circumstances leading up the citation extend over a period three vears, to of and at the time of their first air- ing attracted much attention and com- | ment, On June 15, 1897, Dr. Richard T. Free- man, a well'to-do and respected physi- fan, died in the lodgings he rented from ¥ | Jane Lee and a woman known as Mr I isalito. His estate, valued § . consisted principally of several | | magnificent diamonds. As, at the time of | his death, ro will was to be found, and he | was not known to have any relatives In | | this country, Public Administrator Eden took charge of Freeman's affai and property. But here he met with violent and anexpected opposition from Jane Lee and Mrs. Bell, who claimed that prior to his death the deceased had made a will leaving his entire estate to them. This will they were unable, at the time, | to produce, neither could any trace be | { found of the diamonds. Eden was temporarily baffled, but after consultation with the then District At- | torney, E. tinelll, the latter {ssued | a search warrant to the administrator. A close search failed to reveal any trace of a will or a clew to the whereabouts of | the missing diamonds.. Then, when the | | search had been abandoned, the will sud- denly made its appearance, and after weeks of litigation and argument was finally admitted to probate. The result was that Jane Lee was appointed admin- istratrix and her bonds grere fixed at §17,- 0. Judge Angellottl, however, provided that ‘no money or valuables could be | drawn from the bank by either of the wo- | | men without a signed order from him The first result of this ruling was a suit | filed In the United States Court by the two women against Martinelli and Eden | for $20,000 damages. he case was, how | ever, never pushed, and finally, for lack of prosecution, was abandoned.

LONDON, Dee. —While most per- | sons knew that the late Duke of | Westminster was one of the rich- | est men in England, no London news- paper has taken the trouble to pre cure an estimate of wealth. He owned several thousand parcels of London realty, which altogether, according to the Duke's made 600 acres. Much of the aristocratic resi- dence quarter. He also had 30,000 acres in the country and an annual Income of £750,00. His realty in London was prob- bly worth £30,000,00. The heir to the dukedom s the late Duke's grandson, Viscount Belgrave, now in South Africa, an aid de camp of Sir Alfred Milner, the Governor of Cape Colony. The papers abound in anecdotes of the late Duke. He was rather careless and shabby In his dress, and his life at Eton Hall was that of an ordinary country gentleman. At any time during his stay in Cheshire the Duke might be seen rid- ing or walking about his park, this Is in Belgravia, usually smoking a cigarette not often composed for he used medicated, clgar- To ettes as & remedy for asthma, his household lh- Duke was always ma.
