London, Aug. 28.—The ownership of
the London Times and the policy of
Lord Northcllffe's leading newspaper,
were questions which dominated yes
terday's newspapers. Incidentally It
was learned that there is to be-a
test over Lord Northcllffe's will and
three caveats are entered against
its probate. It now develops that Lord
Northcllffe made two wills, one dated
March 22,1919, and another shortly be
fore his de^ath, of which the .-.ole exe
cutor la Lady Northcliffe.
The admitting of the will to probate
will end all speculation concerning its
contents. There are those who be
Ueye that Lord Northcliffe took steps
perpetually to dominate the policies
of the Times, by some sort of organi
zation similar to the Cecil Rhodes
trust, or the Rockefeller Foundation.
It Is generally agreed that !f Lord
Northcllffe's shares In the London
Times are disposed ot In open Market,
there will be a scramble like that of
1908. when Harmworth, by his strate
gy, barely nosed out Arthur Pearson
as successor to the Walter interests
who corttrolled the newspaper for a
century.
James L. Garvin. In tno Observer,
naming Sir John Eiierman, tbe second
largest shareholder In the paper and
laird Rothermore, Viscount North-
cllffe's brother who, 1^ conditions per
mitted would buy the Times for his
heir, Esmond Harmswortb.
Garvin also considers Sir William
Berry as a prospective buyer. S'r
William Is also a power In Fleet
street, as the owner of the Sunday
Times. Among Garvin’s guesses Is
Lord Beaverbrook, owner of tbe Ex-
press, whose development ln recent
years has been comparable with that
of the Dally Mail. Three or four oth
er "dark horses,” among them foreign
publishers, have been mentioned, but
Garvin says that any attempt by out
siders to get control ot the Times will
fall.
The Express asserts that Lord
Northcllffe's estate Is estimated pt
£4,000,000 on which heavy death du
ties must be paid. This will likely com
pel the trustees to dispose of certain
of hla Interests and therefore It Is an
ticipated that control of tbe Times will
eventually pass into other hands.
An Interesting turn was taken In
Lord Nortbcliffe'a affairs by the ente-
ing ot three caveats against the ad
mission ot the will or the granting of
letters ot administration to tbe North
cllffe estate. This will prevent the ad-
miniaration of the estate until the per-
