ny NEW YORK GETS $6,000,000 FROM HARKNESS ESTATE Surrogate Decides Standard Oil Man Who Left $170,000,- 000 Had Residence Here. ANOTHER FIGHT NOW. Burial at Woodlawn Given as One Reason for Court’s Ruling. Surrogate John P. Cohalan to-day decided that Lamon V. Harkness, one of the Standard O11 group of finan- clers, who left an estate of $170,- 000,000, was a resident of New York State, If upheld tn the higher courts the decision means that the treasury of this State will be enriched more than $6,000,000 by the imposition of a transfer tax upon the vast estate, In & lengthy opinion the Surrogate or- dered the estate sent back to they Transfer Tax Department, for ap- pratsal and assessment. Though Harkness resided tn other Places outside of ihe States and had numerous summer and winter homes elsewhere, the Court found that his legal residence was here, The opinion traces Harkness from his birth at Bellevue, ©.,, in 1850, to his advent into the East in 1891, when he bought a home in Greenwich, Conn., and ac- quired an estate at Donerall, which he later transformed into W hut Hall, known the country over a one of the finest stock farms in the United States. Ky,, Thao multi-millionaire took a deep interest in this Kentucky farm and nade long stays there, His executors believed they could ‘establish Kentucky as his legal residence at re time of his death on Jan, 17, 19 it Placines, Cal, where he main- tained a palatial winter home. The Surrogate, refused, however, to accept the executors’ view, holding hat four years after Harkness bought the Connecticut and Kentucky proper- tles he purchased the mansion at No. 933 Fifth Avenue which was known 1s his town hou A year before is death he bought a house at Fast- hampton, N. Y. The Surrogate points out further that Mr, Harkness's body was buried in Woodlawn Ceme ery New York, the funeral being from Dis late residence.

WASHINGTON, Feb, 17.—That the | United States should cut down her armaments to a minimum rather than expand them, 1s the opinion of Mar- quis Okuma, ex-Premier of Japan, expressed in a recent statement, the j text ot which has just been recetved | jhere. He also said he believed the; |world was on the brink of bank- ruptey, Next In importance to his declara- tion that America should reduce armaments is one that Japan should be permitted to complete the naval | Programme she now has tn hand. He} also said the Entente Powers should maintain thelr status quo in arma- ments and that the whole German navy should be surrendered and its army cut to one-third its pre-war! strength. A translation of the Mar- quis'’s statement ts in part: “I sincerely hope that the Peaco Conference at the end of the present | | Will will be, in reality, a conference for | establishing permanent peaco in the! world. In order to establish such a permanent peace, it is of prime im- portance to place restrictions on the | military strength of the world powers, | for milltary power is the foe of peace. | “All the countries of the world | should be made to abolish all arma- ments providing against an enemy | from without, retaining merely that | portion which is essential to deal with | possible civil disturbances. “In view of the considerable length of her conat lines and of the necessity | of providing against the pirates with which tho China seas are infested, | Japan should be allowed to complete} the naval replenishment programme | she has now in hand, but her army should Umited to the present twenty-one divisions “As regards America, where {a the| ity for her to expand h ra-| She ought to cut them down ne ments to the m!
