on a % —— i Aged Banker’s Will tune to Charity. ‘When the will of Francis A. Palmer, resident of the Broadway Savings In- tution, who died Saturday, ts read— Probably next Wednesday—it will be definitely known if he kept his promise to disinherit his grand-niece, Mrs. Susan Rockwell, and leave his $6,000,000 estate to educational institutions, So great was the antipathy of the aged } banker to second marriages and sincere his respect for the memory of his wife, that a year ago, when his grand-niece, who had been his favored Telative, announced that for three years fhe had been the wife of Samuel D. Rockwell, he openly stated that he Usually kept his will up-to-date, and that his entire fortune would go to @ducation and not to relatives, Other Grandniece in Charge. Tt Is believed now that shortly prior to his death, when overtures of peace between the millionaire and his grand- niece were held out, he refused all of- fers of reconciliation. This expression of his dissatisfaction with her act seems | now to be manifested by developments. ‘o-day the late residence of Mr. Paisrer is practically In charge of Mrs. William 33. Anderton, wife of Dr. Ander- more recent yi ton, of No, 34 West Forty-seventh atreet, and a grandniece of the dead man. be has assumed charge of all of the funeral arrangements, and that, too, without consulting the Rockwells. She @ virtually in command of affairs in general at the late home of the million- aire. Anderton sald to-day that she jot aware that Mrs, Rockwell In- tended being present at the funeral. When it was stated that report had it that Mrs. Rockwell intended bringing ault against the estate of Mr. Palmer in the event she received no part of her uncle's millions Mrs. Anderton said warmly: “1 think Mr. Palmer had a perfect right to do with his money what he pleased."” When Mrs, Rockwell was secn at her residence on West Seventy-first street ahe said: “I shall attend the funeral. That {s all the statement I wish to make." One Endowment Annnred. Rey. Dr. Charles B, Jefferson, of tho Broadway Tabernacle, has arranged the funeral. Rev. George McQuinney, of Dayton, O., shortly before Mr. Palmer's death, obtained a verbal promise from him that he would make a bequest of $600,000 to an institution at Munele, Ind. “Phat promised bequest,"" said the Rev. Dr. Jefferson, “was a wild cat bo® quest, I do not know whether it will or will not prevail. I cannot say anything now about the will. I may and I may mot know what it contains. 1 will say that there will be a considerable en- éowment for the Starkey Seminary, at Eddytown, N. J. There will also tie ably some money left to the Palmer liege in Iowa. The funeral will take place (o-morrow. Mr. Palmer lost no time in preparing to divide his estate. Last summer he gave $0,00 to found the Palmer In- atitute and Muncle, Ind., and at that time he said he would sce that the in- stitute had suMcient funds for many ears. To the Starkey Seminary, at ddytown, N. J.. he gave $30.00) ‘and promised more.’ When these gifts were ‘announced Jt was believed that Mrs. Rockwell had been cut off entirely. The reading of the will ls awaited to confirm that bellef. Worked to the End. Mr. Palmer, who was just ninety ye: old, had attended his duties as bank ident until last Thursday at noon, ‘hen he complained of feeling fatigued and went to his home, at No, 18) Madi- @on avenue, He died there Saturday afternoon. When fis wife, Suganna Sheldon, with whom he had lived for more than fifty year in 1893 he gave orders that nothing In the house be changed trom athe way in which she had left it, He pposed Lo ¥econd marriages, oe OMEN HELD FOR ATTACKING WOMAN Dragged Her“into a Stable, She * Says, and Knocked Her on the Head.

The interesting counter charges in Gowan's answer to the plaintiff's al- legations involve too much mother-in- law, too much Pet—the highly prized canine—and also a delicate reference to cold feet as a deterrent to peaceful and continued repose. Mrs, Gowan asks in her complaint for a legal separation from her husband on the usual grounds of cruelty, &c., and then in an attached aMdavit sets forth categorically specific instances Gowan‘ he possesses a peculiar irritability of temper and an uttér lack of sympathy for her ‘few pets and harmless fan- cle She alleges that his conduct toward her little poodle was harsh and brutal in the extreme, and “that on many occasions he frightened the dog out of his wits by shouting at It in a savage Yoice."’ As a specimen of his pe- cullar Irritability of temper she avers that on one evening he so far forgot himself in a quarrel with her that he called her a “bow-legged spltfire, a shrew, a cat and other similar harsh and cruel names which have escaped de- ponent's memor; Mrs. Gowan's affidavit sets forth fur- ther as an Illustration of the cruelties she has been subjected to that “the de- that the plaintiff is unable to get hi quired rest, and that when sho gently r minded the defendant of his loud breat!
