ASTOR ESTATE IS OVER $87,000,000 Value Much Greater Than Was First Estimated. FINAL APPRAISAL IS MADE. Hero of Titanic Disaster Left $10,000, 000 More Than Estate Was Thought to Be Worth- Victor - Vincent Actor Receives $55,603,547 - Few Worthless. Securities Found by Appraisers. New York. - Final appraisal of the estate of John Jacob Actor, who went to his death on the Titanic, fixes the value at $87,716,691. This is approximately $10,000,000 more than the tentative appraisals and the assessed valuation indicated the estate to be worth. The share of the estate which passes into the estate of William Vincent Actor, the first American member of the family to hold his legacy absolutely and without the intervention of trusts, amounts to $65,603,547. The property set aside for Colonel Actor's first wife, Mrs. Ava Welling Actor, was appraised at $787,397. The property placed in trust for Colonel Actor's second wife, who was Madeline Force, was appraised at $1,695,792. Unusual methods were adopted in the appraisal of the Actor estate. Instead of the estate retaining its own appraisers and the state controller by Marceau. VINCENT ASTOR. retaining another set of appraisers, there was appointed a board of appraisers agreed upon by both sides. It was understood that the report of this board of experts should be accepted as final. In the appraisal of property which had been left in trust for both the first and second wives of Colonel Astor the appraisals were made without knowledge on the part of the appraisers as to what purpose the property was to be devoted. The value of the real estate, as determined by the appraisers, is approximately $14,000,000, while the securities he owned had a face value of $20,000,000. It is said that the worthless securities held by Colonel Astor were few. Most of these were investments into which Colonel Astor had been led by his love for scientific experimentation, he evidently having been willing to invest money in ventures for the promotion of scientific theories in which, it is said, he had little hope of financial profit. By friends he had been induced to invest comparatively small sums in museums. The following are the principal items of reery, with the appraisal valuations: Hotel Waldorf.Astor, including one-half of Astor court, $16,140,000; Hotel Knickerbocker, $4,875,000; Hotel St. Reg. and three parcels adjoining, $3,975,000; Putnam building, $2,525,000; south one-half of the Astor House, $2,400,000; the Astor residence at 840 and 842 Fifth avenue, $2,475,000; the ground at the northeast corner of Broadway and Forty-second street, $2,125,000; Cambridge hotel at 820-334 Fifth avenue, $1,475,000; Schermerhorn building, $1,800,000; 205-303 Sixth avenue with the adjoining five parcels in West Nineteenth street, $1,183,500. The largest single stock holding was in the New York Central, of which securities Colonel Astor held 40,000 shares, valued at $4,650,000. When Colonel Astor's body was found there was $3,817 in his pocket. The appraisal of the Astor Jewelry is $161,920. The two principal items are a diamond sunburst valued at $78,000 and a diamond necklace valued at $60,000. Charles W. Morse owed the Astor estate $110,030, which the executives say they have been unable to collect since the claim arose in 1909. The total deductions claimed by executors, including debts, administrative expenses, executors' commissions and attorneys' fees amount to $1,876,771. The estate paid a preliminary tax of $3,150,000 last October. Owing to the increase in value upon final appraisal the estate will be required to pay thousands of dollars in additional tax. ADOPT GIRL AFTER 15 YEARS. Couple Legalize Her Right to Their Name and Property. Name and Property. St. Louis. - Although she has lived for fifteen years as the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George B. Smith of 151 Garfield avenue. Miss Ethel R. Smith did not really become so until the other day, when a deed of adoption was filed in the office of the recorder of deeds which made her a Miss Smith, whose parents were named Tipton, is twenty-two, a blond and is considered good looking by her personal acquaintances. Her foster mother said that the adoption had been decided on as best to protect the girl's financial interests. The Smiths, who are comparatively well to do, desire, she intimated, to see that her right to the family name and Inheritance may never be questioned. They have no children of their own blood. Miss Smith was adopted by the Smiths when she was seven years old. She has lived in St. Louis ever since, and, although she has taken part of friends, few of them knew she was not the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Smith. She has not in many years been known by her birth name, Tipton. SHE'LL TRY TO SAVE CROOKS. Sophie Lyons, Once a Criminal, at Sixty-eight Turna, Benefactor. Detroit. Mich.-Sophie Lyons, woman crook of worldwide police acquaintance, wife of Billy Hurd now in a Stockholm prison for a big swindle has decided to devote the remainder of her life and her fortune of $500,000 to saving first offenders from going deeper into crime. She is sixty-eight and lives in a modest home in Detroit. She owns much other real estate from which she derives a large income. She said that she feared her new resolution would allainte her husband. "But I want to accomplish his reformation more than any other single thing," she added. "He is weak and easily tempted, and his criminal operations were not induced by necessity, as were mine." I have lived a straight life for two-five years. I want to try to make amends for what I did before that." AERIAL GAMBLING DEN FOR GERMANS Berlin Gamesters Plan a Monte Carlo In Bailoon. Berlin—Owing to the increased stringency of the German antigambling laws, some ingenious managers at Frankfurt and Dresden have launched the following idea, which frees the gambling dens of any police domiciliary visits. A company has been formed by these enterprising gentlemen, and an old Zeppelin dirigible balloon is to be put in the gondola of the airship a gambling room will be arranged, and gambling will take place there at several thousand feet up in the air. This will make the gambling absolutely free of police interference, as laws do not foresee the possibility of aerial gambling. The scheme is eagerly discussed in German gambling circles, and it is understood that a conference of the leading police prefects of the largest cities in Germany will be summoned to the city in Germany to measure shall be taken to meet the emergency. The question raised is whether the police will be allowed to shoot down any airship which is used for illegal purposes. LINGERIE IN HIS TRUNKS. Customs Men Make Heino Transfer Finery to Girl's Owner New York. -When the custom house inspectors examined the luggage of Eric Heino, a second cabin passenger on the White Star liner Baltic, found one of his trunks had a false bottom, in which he had hidden eighty-one boxes of cigarettes, the duty on which would have been about $25. The cigarettes were confiscated, and Heino was not detained. The inspectors also found considerable ingerie. dresses and other women's wearing apparel in Heino's trunks, but were satisfied with his explanation that they belonged to a Miss Severnson, with whom he had grown up from childhood and who was also a second cabin passenger on the Baltic. The inspector made Heino transfer the ingerie and other goods to Miss Severnson's trunk, and she was detained until friends called for her. TAKES CHRIST AS HIS MODEL New Justice of Peace Will Follow Golden Rule. Chicago—Henry Neill, father of the mothers' pension bill, has been elected, a justice of the peace in Oak Park. He announced that he will conduct his court as nearly as possible as it would be conducted by Jesus Christ were he on earth today: "All the ministers in town will be assistant, justices," said Mr. Neill. "The Golden Rule and the Sermon on the Mount will have more influence with me than city council ordinances. I will abolish all my fees, but I cannot abolish the constable fees. I wish I could." THE APPEAL. SEEKS TO SOLVE FLOOD PROBLEMS NO APPROPRIATION IS MADE Deemed Better by Authorities to Concentrate Forces For One Comprehensive Country Wide Project—National Department of Public Works Under Cabinet Member Is Advocated. St. Louis.-The reading of a telegram from Washington pledging the Wilson administration to investigation toward the solution of flood, drainage and river navigation problems, the adoption of resolutions urging the creation of a national department of public works under a cabinet member, the defeat of a resolution urging the congressional appropriation for the flood prevention plans of the Mississippi river commission—these events marked the closing session of the national drainage congress here. In addition the drainage congress adopted resolutions providing for the establishment of a malaria section of the drainage congress and urging the southern states to appoint commissions that will co-operate with the United States public health service in stamping out malaria. The message from Washington outlining the attitude of the administration was addressed to David R. Franks, retiring, president of the drainage committee. The message follows: Secretary Kerry authorized the following as being substantially an expression of the president's opinion at this time: That the president hopes to see and will strive to bring about substantial progress during his administration toward solving of flood, drainage, river navigation and other such problems; that if the national drainage congress concludes creation of a special department of the government will assist reduction he will give earnest consideration to question; that suggestion appears to offer a practical way of co-ordi- nation and of improving the government's facilities for grappling these questions, but the situation has not until he has studied the subject more fully as to method-in short, the president has made suggestions have been made during and considered under the two preceding administrations. The situation simply is that the president is now preparing a report on the words and consult his admirers before advocating so sweeping a change. Secretary Garrison is now preparing a report on the words and consult his admirers. This may have a bearing on the president's course. The resolution urging a congressional appropriation to out the plans of the president for the river system was presented by R. B. Oliver of Cape Girardeau, Mo., and precipitated the only stirring debate that occurred during the entire session. "Why talk of further investigations," said Mr. Oliver, "when the Mississippi river commission already has made an investigation and eminent engineers have announced that its plans for flood control are feasible? It is little short of murder for this congress to go on record as failing to indorse the plan of the commission when along the lower Mississippi today people are being driven from their homes and separated from their friends by floods that they cannot control and that originated in regions north of them." Mr. Oliver's speech brought forth several replies, the speakers contending that the drainage congress should not center its attention on one project, that the matter had been discussed thoroughly in the resolutions committee and that it was the part of wisdom to present a united front for a department of public works which should take over all matters of food control. The Tragedy of Two Hunters. Vancouver, B. C.-The skeletons of two men believed to have been M. Mahoney and E. Andrew were workers, who disappeared on Thurlow Island, on the northern British Columbia coast nearly three years ago, have been found. The men were believed to have been killed by Indians when they failed to return from a hunting trip. The skulls of both had been crushed, apparently with an ax. Defective Page DAVID R. FRANCIS. His Murdered Father Bequatha Love For Mother and Children For Mother and Country. Athens. In his political will, which has now been made public, the late King George, after giving directions for the disposition of his belongings, urges his children to remain united. Addressing himself to the new king, Constantine, King George says: "Love your dear little country. Serve her and your dear people and have confidence in them, and may your brothers follow the same example." The will urges King Constantine to be courageous and patient, "for you are reigning over a southern people whose temper and irritability take fire and wail at any moment may say and write things which is probable will be forgettable the following day. It is preferable that the king should sufer, even morally, rather than his people and his country. The interests of the people of the country must always be placed before all other interests." In conclusion King George declares his love for Queen Olga and urges his son to love and protect her. WON'T CHECK THEIR BABIES Churchgoing Mothers Sure They Can Identify Their Own. Evanston, Ill.-A proposed system to check babies during service was resorted to by several mothers at the Wheaton Methodist Episcopal church here. The mothers were willing to have their little ones cared for in an anteroom by two attendants while they listened to the sermon, but when they were offered checks as a guarantee that no mistake would be made when the babies were reclaimed they objected. The attendants were finally persuaded to take care of the infants without handing out checks for them; being assured by each mother that there would be no mistake made when she came to claim her own. The checking concession had been let by the ladies' aid society of the church, the members of which desired to relieve the congregation from the annoyance of the babies crying. SHOWS A HOUSEFLY AS LARGE AS A CAT Model on View at Museum of Natural History. New York. Many sights may be seen in the new hall of public history, lately opened by the American Museum of Natural History, which have more relation to the affairs of everyday life than many of the scientific treasures which the big institution houses elsewhere. The principal figures of this newest exhibit are not prehistoric monsters, but thy and familiar insects of contemporaneous human interest—the fly, the mosquito and the flea. A housefly as big as a fair sized cat occupies the place of honor in the collection. This model has cost nine months of work and study on the part of Ignaz Matausch, a Hungarian model maker in the service of the museum. It is constructed on a scale of 64,000 times the size of the living insect, and the proportions have been preserved with the minutest care. Mr. Matausch having made his drawings and casts for the head, body and various members of the insect from dissection. Larvae and pupae of the fly are made models molded on the same scale, as the eggs, which appear as little cucumber shaped pieces of paraffin about two inches long. A real fly's egg is just about visible to the naked eye. The same artist has painted an enlargement (1,500 diameters) of the hairy foot of the fly, showing the typhoid bacilli, of which the insect is the common carrier, on the clawlike tip of the member. The exhibit as at present constituted however, covers a good deal of ground that is not so well known to the pubic as it should be. The connection between the rat and the bubonic plague for example, is shown in the reproduction of a section of a dwelling in San Francisco. This represents two adjoining rooms, in one of which several rats are seen feasting upon the refuse of a garbage barrel, while in the next the wall of which is pierced by rat holes, are several more taking their ease in a room which is evidently a pantry. These rats, of course, are supposed to be infested with the fleas which transmit the plague. One of the most striking groups is that of "the lil kept farm," which has as a companion piece "the well kept farm." In the first model are shown a farmhouse and farm buildings of the old fashioned type. There is a well with an "old boken bucket," the stable has a large manure heap, the outhouses are of a primitive character, and adjoining the farmyard is a malacite quoite breeding marsh. The farmyard is flanked by a ditch indicating that the shallow well has been replaced by a driven well, insuring an unplowed water supply. A dry tight box has been substituted for the unstylish and inorganic manure heap, the outhouses have been brought up to date, the rain barrels in which the anopheles "wriglers" used to breed have disappeared, and their last refuge the swamp, has been drained. KING GEORGE HAD STIRRING REIGN KING GEORGE HAD STIRRING REIGN Constantine, After Being Forced to Leave Athens in 1909, by Military League, Returned and Lied Army to Victory in Last Balkan War—Would Be Hellenic Emperor. Salonkii—King George of Greece, was assassinated here by a degenerate named Schinas, was literally taken from the masthead of a Danish cruiser and elevated to the proud position of king of the Hellenes. That was in 1893. The years that followed were crowded with more of accident and adventure than fall to the lot of most modern monarchs. George's family name is Holstein-Glucksburg. He was the second son of Prince Christian of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonder-Glucksburg, who afterward became king of Denmark. Prince was named Christian William Waller. As a george and as such entered the naval service of Denmark. He had made two cruises and was about to start on a third when a revolution broke out in Greece. Within three days King Otto of Greece, a Bavarian, lost the throne he had occupied for thirty years. It became necessary for the European powers to find a substitute. It looked as if the throne might go begging when the powers offered it to Prince William, still a boy in his teens, of whose existence, perhaps, not one in a thousand of his future subjects was aware. It was necessary for the Greek national assembly to go through the formality of electing the nominee of the powers. This was done at Athens on March 18, 1863. The early years of the reign of this allen monarch were peaceful. In 1867 he married Olga Constantinowa, eldest CONSTANTINE, THE NEW KING OF GREECE, daughter of the Grand Duke Constantine, brother of Czar Alexander of Russia, thereby strengthening the position of Greece and enhancing his own popularity. Quarrels of political factions and official corruption soon involved the nation in difficulties, for which the king was held responsible. War with Turkey was clamored for in 1876 and again ten years later, and it was only the firm attitude of the king and the backing of the powers which prevented Greece rushing into a conflict for which she was not prepared. When war finally came in 1897 it was demonstrated that the king had acted wisely. The conflict soon ended in disaster to the Grecian arms, and Turkish reprisals would have been heavy had not the powers enforced terms of peace that favored the vanquished rather than the victors. Before the war King George had been perhaps the most hated man in Greece. An attempt had been made to assassinate him while he was driving with his daughter. The successes of the present war had the opportunity of the king and all his family. He and the crown prince had brought the Greek army to a state of great efficiency. The capture of Janina with its garrison of 22,000 men was the climax of a brilliant campaign. The king left seven children, five sons and two daughters. They are Constantine, Duke of Sparta, who now succeeds to the throne; Alexandra, who was married to Grand Duke Paul Alexandrovitch of Russia; George, Nicholas, Marle, Andrew and Christopher. Constantine, the new king, was born in Athens and received his early education from foreign tutors, who taught him to speak German, English, Latin, French and Danish. At the age of eighteen he was graduated from the military academy, with the rank of lieutenant. Until the war with Turkey in 1897 he had little military experience aside from participating in the annual military maneuvers of the German army, but he was considered a thought- THE APPEAL KEEPS IN FRONT BECAUSE: 1-It aims to publish all the news possible. 2-It does so impartially, wasting no words. 3-Its correspondents are able and energetic. CHILDREN DIG FOR CHURCH. Take Pastor's Ground Literally in Breaking Ground For, New Edifice. Middletown, N. Y.-All the congregation and 100 Sunday school children of the Evangelical Lutheran church assembled for the ground breaking ceremony at the site of a new house of worship which is to be built. The pastor, the Rev. G. A. Fechner, armed with a silver spade, stood in the middle of the lot and all his flock gathered about him. Fringing the edge of the church site were workmen with spades and shovels. Nearby was a line of wagons ready for the excavating work to begin. The pastor wound up his dedicatory remarks thus: "Now, children, and to build a new, new church, and all of you must set to work with shores heart and willing bands for its upbringing and glorification." Then with the spade he turned over a bit turf. Instantly the children made a data for the picks and shovels of the workmen and began digging furiously. Girls and boys along joined in the scramble, and in a few minutes the waiting wagons were filled with earth. The youngsters had taken their pastor's words literally. $30,000,000 FROM ONE TAX. What Corporations Will Pay to the Government For Last Year. Washington.—The net earnings of corporations of the United States for the calendar year 1912 were $30,000,000, an increase of $250,000,000 over 1911. This amount will yield an income to the federal government under the corporation tax law of $30,000,000, which is $250,000, or 8 per cent, greater than a year age. Royal E. Cabell, commissioner of internal revenue, has received returns from practically all corporations and has now completed assessments to the full extent of the $30,000,000, which must be paid to the government by June 20. In addition, $20,000,000 will come from delinquents of previous years. Net corporation earnings for 1911 decreased 2 per cent as compared with 1910. The figures for 1912, however, showing an increase of about 8 per cent over 1911, were 6 per cent greater than 1910. LIZZIE BORDEN NOT GUILTY, SAYS SISTER Silence of Twenty Years Broken In Sensational Case. Fall River, Mass.-Miss Emma Embor Barden broke a silence of twenty years when she declared her positive belief in the innocence of her sister. Miss Lizzie Borden, who was tried and acquitted in 1883 of the charge of murdering their father, Andrew J. Borden, and his second wife. Her statement is the first one of a public nature that either sister has made regarding one of the most notable murder mysteries in New England. Eight years ago Miss Emma Borden quit the mansion where she and her sister were living and made her home with friends. This move caused an estrangement, and since then the two women have not met or communicated with each other. The Borden murder was the sensation of twenty years ago, and, although the authorities did everything they could to untangle the mystery, it never has been solved. Andrew J. Borden was a well to do but miserly farmer of Fall River. He lived with his wife and two adult daughters, Lizzie and Emma. On August 2022 he and his wife were found in and in separate rooms murdered apparently by some heavy, sharp instrument, presumably an ax. The police of Fall River produced evidence that Lizzie was the only person who had been in the house during the day. Mr. Borden left an estate of $600,000, and she stood to profit by his death. It was shown that once she had made an attempt to purchase prussic acid. She was arrested and put on trial. The trial was at New Bedford and lasted sixteen days. The girl was educated, with a sincere personality, and, while no direct proof was furnished against her, the state presented a strong circumstantial case. The jury acquitted her after an hour's deliberation. The ten months intervening between the murder and trial only served to deepen the mystery. Borden had a good reputation for probity. No enemies were found, and no cause why any one should murder him was ascertained. SOME INDIAN NOMENCLATURE Representatives of Families Who Are of the Landed Gentry.

SAYS RAILROADS WASTE REVENUES Bad Management and Watered Stock No Reason For Denying Men's Demands, Says President of B. of L. F. In Brief Filed With Arbitration Board In Wage Dispute. New York.-Dissipation of revenue, incompetent and wasteful management and watered capitalization are charged against railroads by W. S. Carter, international president of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen, in a brief filed with the arbitration board which heard the wage dispute between the firemen and the fifty-four eastern roads. The railroads frequently asserted at the hearings that to grant the firemen a 25 per cent annual increase in wages would be too great a financial burden to be borne by a number of the roads. 'All the railroads engaged in the present proceedings, when the actual amount of capital invested in roadbed, structures and equipment is considered, without reference to watered capitalization or financial investments, show sufficient operating revenue to cover all operating expenses, including a liberal advance in wages to firemen © 1913. by American Press Association. W. S. CARTER. and all legitimate capital charges", said Mr. Carter. "If the construction of a railroad has been without economic justification or no profitable traffic is developed in the territory which it traverses or if it is constructed without regard to development traffic through an agreement with connecting roads, these facts are no ground for denying firemen the payment of proper wages. "If the stocks and bonds of a railroad company have been properly issued for purposes of granting bounties to stockholders, to or permitors or acquiring the bonds and stocks of other transportation companies and industrial corporations at inflated values the necessity of paying dividends on such stocks or interest on such bonds cannot be urged as a reason against the grant of increased wages to locomotive firemen. "The proceeds of the labor of the firemen and other railroad employees should not be used by diverting a part of the operating revenues each year into additions and betterments to give a market value to railroad securities which were originally worthless. "These unpardonable methods of increasing outstanding capitalization have not only rendered absurd that claim that all railroad stock and bonds should receive dividends, but they have imposed a heavy and grievous burden on the firemen and other labor engaged in conducting transportation and capital actually invested in the firemen because they have caused large drains and have caused without making any contribution to the value or earning capacity of the railroad properties. "Forty-four of the roads involved in these proceedings showed a combined net surplus of $256,288,981. With this enormous amount at their disposal it is evident that they are fully able to pay the increase in wages asked by the firemen, which, according to the roads themselves, would result in an annual charge amounting to less than a twentieth of the total amount of surplus paid by the firemen of the companies opposed to this arbitration. Of the deal whereby the Toledo, St. Louis and Western railroad—the Clover Leaf road—acquired control of the Chicago and Alton in 1901 Mr. Carter said: "By the issue of new securities in the process of reorganization 57.23 per cent of the capitalization of the company was fictious and represented no property or earning capacity. Dividends capitalization represented an unjustifiable burden on the labor and capital operating the railroad." * WEEK'S RECORD IN MINNESOTA' CAPITAL.
