CATHERINE WOLFE'S EPISTLE.
Romance Thrown Into a Plain Will by
a Sealed Letter.
From the New York World.
The good and benevolent Catherine L.
Wolfe is at rest. Not so are her trustees,
nor her agents, nor the many hell's.
There are throe trustees and seventeen
heirs. Her estate, amounting to at least
$30,000,000, probably more, real and per
sonal. must be divided.
How shall it be done 1 That is the ques
tion which somewhat puzzles the trustees
and even the legal gentlemen who act as
their counsel.
At least about $8,000,000 or $10,000,000 of
the property Miss Welle was possessed of
consisted of real estate, some of which she
owned iu fee, again parcels in which she
only had an interest, property inherited by
her, and also property which she had ac
quired liei'self—all this crontes a tangle,
though there is no disturbance anywhere.
Yet May lis rapidly approaching. Some
of her leases are expiring both along
Sixth and Eighth avenues, but neither her
trustees, Messrs. Bishop or Bruce, nor her
old trusted agent, James R. Waterlow. can
issue the required leases.
Why not < Yesterday’s conference of the
trustees, held up town in the presence of
counsel, gave an insight into this quandary
in which both lessoi-s and lessees find them-,
selves at this juncture.
The will is set down for probate before
the Surrogate for the last week in May.
This delay is necessitated by the fact t hat
parties interested now in France must be
heard from, not by cable, but in documen
tary form. There is to be no contest, no
trouble whatever, but the law's inexorable
edict as to forms steps in and says “halt.”
PROB ATE FIRST IN ORDER.
Yet many persons are anxious to lease or
buy some of Miss Wolfe’s real estate. Even
one of the Vanderbilts is reported as having
offered considerably more than half a
million for her Newport property, but all to
no purpose. Nothing can Ik* done until the
will is probated at the end of May.
More than this. There is a sealed letter
in existence written shortly before her
death by the deceased lady and addressed to
her trustees under the will
This letter has the superscription, “Not to
be opened until after the probate of
the will. —C. L. W.”
That injunction has been sacredly kept.
The sealed letted - remains intact in the cus
tody of the trustees’ counsel.
What does it contain? This is another
question puzzling those interested,'and in
the meantime all is at sixes and sevens.
Yet legal talent always knows a way out.
and so it was decided yesterday that, taking
into consideration all the circumstances,
one year’s leases, but not at any longer
terms, could now and will therefore be is
sued.
As to that sealed letter, the trustees are in
the same position as a naval officer who in
time of war leaves port, with sealed orders,
not knowing liis own destination until he is
clear of the coast.
AN AIR OF UNCERTAINTY.
After all, Miss Wolfe’s w ill was far from
being a prosaic or matter of fact affair.
That mysterious sealed letter throws an
air of romance and uncertainty over it all.
No living person knows what it contains.
The dead wmmaii’s lawyer, counsellor, ad
viser and friend has never read it or boon
told its contents. Miss WoFte wrote it, her
self, from no one’s dictation, and had the
lawyer put a clause in the will covering it.
It may involv efa'vast sum of money and
it maj' boa trifling affair.
Other people have left; similar sealed let
ters that contained matters of great moment.
THE LETTER TRUSTEES.
The letter is addressed to Mr. David W.
Bishop, Mr. David W. Bruce, Mr. George
W. Bishop and Mr. Louis L. Lorillard.
“Yes, there is such a letter,” said Mr. A.
Mann, the lawyer who drew the will,
when questioned about it by a reporter. Mi-.
Mann looked a little surprised.
“Can you tell me what is in it?”
“No; 1 cannot. I don’t know the exact
nature of its contents. Besides, it’s none of
the public's business. It is a private letter
of Miss Wolfe’s to the gentlemen to whom it
is addressed. It is not addressed to them as
trustees, but as individuals.”
A VERY Y'ALUABI.E EPISTLE.
“Many people leave similar 16112181,” lie
continued. “They take that means of mak
ing bequests and disposing of property when
it is of a trivjul or private nature that they
don’t care to have made public. When I
drew up Peter Lorillard’s will I put in a
similar clause covering a letter in which he
disposed of over $200,000.”
“Have you any idea of the nnturo of the
contents of this letter in question?”
“Yes; I know there are three items in it —
one giving a sum of money, or, rather, sev
eral sums; another leaving jewelry, and an
other clothes.”
“Who are they left to?”
“All to servants —people who have been in
her employ, und friends. Distant relatives
iKissibiv, though I don’t like to say that, for
if I ilol would lie overwhelmed with letters
of inquiry t hat I could never answer.”
"H ill tin* letter be opened before the will
is probated ?”
“Certainly not.”
IN A CLOUD
Mr. Mann declined to say whether or not
there was a large gift in the letter. From
various circumstances, it is fair to presume
there is. Neither did he think there would
lie any difficulty alsnit r, ntiug the property.
“I presume that it is mostly leased now,”
he Raid.
There are ulsmt thirty heirs in all.
“Do you think the entire estate will
amount to 430,<K)0,000?” asked the reporter.
“There is no living mail who can answer
that question. Jt ntay be worth $4().00O,(S)l)
•a’ ♦!'>.1X10,000. No inventory lias Iss-u
taken.” _________________

A BLOODY FIGHT IN POLK.
Two lien ana & Woman Use Wenpons
With Terrible Effect.
From the fl,trior ( Fla .) Advance-Courier.
WauCHULA, Fla., April 18. —A serious
affray occurred here this afternoon at 3:30
o’clock, in which N. A. Cochran, Mrs. N. A.
Cochran and George Christopher all figured
prominently. The facts are substantially
about as follows: Christopher walked into
the rear of the store room of Cochran,which
is also used as a residence, for the purpose
of obtaining a drink of water and was met
promptly and abruptly ordered out by Mrs.
Cochran, but not being inclined to leave
hurriedly, she proceeded to trip him and
tried to put him out by force, and in this at
tempt she was seconded by her husband,
both calling to their aid the use of two chop
axes, and Christopher received a rather se
vere stroke over the hood with one of them.
Bv the timely interference of Postmaster
McConnell they were separated and induced
to lay aside the axes. In the meantime
Christopher had made lively use of his hands
and put in several clean knocks to both par
ties. He was in a fair way to materially in
jure both of them, and did succeed in bruis
ing them both up pretty badly. However,
Cochran, succeeding in getting loose, seized
a glut, which he had just fired off and re
loaded a short time before, and made
several desperate attempts to break it
over the head of Christopher, which he final
ly succeeded iu doing, at the same time cut
ting an ugly gash of about four inches in
length (term* the left side of Christopher's
head. After a scuttle of several minutes,
and terrific cries of “murder, murder,” by
Cochran, the friends of Kith parties suc
ceeded in getting Christopher on the out
side of the door, which gave Cochran an op
portunity of closing and barring the en
trance. Christopher made several manful
strokes with a spade which he had secured
from the stock, which lost, their “sweetness”
on the door and window panes, shuttering
them into a thousand pieces. Christopher’s
wounds were dressed by Dr. T. J.
Maddox, who happened to be pres
ent at the time. After having his
wounds dressed, Christopher proceeded to
his house, procured his revolver, came Lad;
and took his seat on the opposite side of the
street to await results. Cochran soon made
liis appearance at the door in the second
story and was soon fired at by Christopher
with a ;!2-('ulibrt pistol, the ball taking effect
in the building. Cochran returned the fire
with a double-barreled shot-gun, which was
fortunately loaded with small shot, two of
which took effect in Christopher's face.
Several other shots were exchanged, but
with no serious results. The friends of
Christopher persuaded him to leave town
for a few days, and he is now in Bartow. It
is feared that should he return to Watichula
there will bo more trouble.
