.i Chicago, 111., Feb. 28.—A second i I genera Con of English aristocrats | have sent their lawyers into tliis f | ountry to cany on the interna-1' : I tional family quarrel ever the ad- j' * I ministration of th' 3 #::0 000.0n.r , ■j 'sta'e of Levi Z. Leiter, Chicago j, ■ I merchant prince. Five years ago tlie English heirs i I 'c< t ont. Lady Marguerite Hyde,' ’ I Countess of Suffolk and Berks,; ‘ I led th° court battle against her 1 brother. Joseph Leiter, who is one |'f th - trustees of the estate. ; Sh“ was backed up by her three ■ sons and the children of her dead ‘'sister. Lady Curzon. The third •[sister. Nancy Lathrop Carver '• | Campbell, however, sided with her ' . hrnthi r.

■ inrotncr. , it was a long and bitter court ■' b ittie. Lady Marguerite accused 1 her brother of mismanaging the Restate. She—or her lawyersi oointed out that ho had displayed , poor judgment when he tried to I ornor the wheat market and lost '' i $7,000,000. On the other hand lawe I yers to'd how the hrotlter had ob- - jet ted to his sis ters' ambit ions marc riages to European Hired men. In {order to keep up the prestige c | wh'ch his sisters had attained in ilmir social triumplw, Joseph was 7 io: 'cd to keep his nose to the c grindstone, jlle claimed that his ’itled relatives were very dissatis- • md with the profits derived from cl the estate. Joseph told a story, one-

which you could imagine a motion i picture biult around, a story of his I efforts to increase the estate. A year after the death of Leiter, Sr.,! there was an explosion in the coal mines which killed 51 persons. Only th unusual efforts of Joseph Leiter saved the estate from disaster. . "He was underground in tlie mine for 48 hours at a time,” said tlie lawyer, “and by his own efforts and at the risk of his own iiie, saved the shaft.” Tins long and costly trial was Olli lud>d in 1927 when the court; i t ided in favor of Joseph Leiter. I the court pointed out that sinea I Joseph s father had known of liis

mi: s speculative turn of mind, and this knowledge had not prevented Mm from becoming a trustee, Lady Marguerite had to be content with , he decision. But now the English heirs to the \mtrican fortune are again reading their hands across the Atlantic. I I’ll tme they are led by l-ady • itl bin Mosley, grandchild, of Levi Leiter. Whose mother married Lord Curzon. Both ijer parents are lead and Igidy Cynthia is intensely interested in Socialism. Her husI? ml. because of life wealth and iristo- ratic affiliations, is called he ‘ Silver Spoon Socialist." This ft'c 1 corrie is very much con- ! Veined vith England’s labor troubles. Lady Cynthia had little in- ■ terest in the first battle the Eng-

— ish heirs fought with Joseph Leiter. She had renounced her title when her husband had renottneeq tns. She had visited, America, but shunned high society ; for the Ford plant and the stockyards of Chicago. Evidently Lady ’ Cynthia's socialistic proclivities do not prevent her from a decided in-! terest in the American fortune to! which she is one of the heirs. it is a far cry from the aristo-' rracy of Britain back to the days when Levi Letter started his career; in a dry goods house in Chicago. ; He started in 1865. when Chicago I was just a stopover town for those . ,nn the way to the Pacific Coast and ’ ' he grew with the city. He joined'

; with Marshall Field in buying the I controlling interest in Potter Pal-' mer's dry goods business and by 1881 had cleaned up enough to retire from the commercial field. Mary Leiter, the oldest daugh-l Her. met ami married Lord Curzon I n 1895. , When Mary’s father died, it was . discovers! that lie lmsl charged I against each of his children what- . ever sum they had received from h'm during his lifetime. So the ■ j $1,700,000 trust fund he had established for Mary and her chil- ! Iron was marked oil' her fourth • part of the estate. And so I-ady • I Curzon and her lard, then retiring • viceroy of India. had «to borrow -' money and take humbler lodgings •' upon their return to India. I

CONGRESS TO END WEDNESDAY (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) tion. He and an emliittetcd sen- i ate found a compromise in their drought relief dispute. Fate of the lame duck resolution lists moini iiL.iiiiy witli senate and house conferees, who were to meet for the fifth time today in an I effort to break, a deadlock on the 12-year-old legislation to abolish the so-called "lame duck” sest-’ j sions of congress. TherC\ was some prospect they might be able'! to find a satisfactory compromise | between tlie projects approved by the two houses. The original resolution, sponsor- ' ed by Senator Norris. Repn.. Neb., was revised in the house by Speaker Longworth bo as to fix a 'limitation on the sessions so as to pre- ; vent filibusters. Tlie newly-elect-jed congress would convene in | January, two months after the | election, under the resolution. Chairman George Otis Smith of | the power commission must defend . himself in federal court against j ouster proceedings initiated by ! the senate, led by Senator Walsh. Dem., Mont. The senate ignored Mr. Hoover's anxiety for action on tlie ; world court this session. It has {been postponed until December. I Tlie federal farm board survived I a whirlwind of protest and obtained the increased appropriation it desired. Friends of the modified muscle shoals bill concede it is lost, although both senate and house have approved it. Senator Norris, who sponsored tlie original bill 1 for government operation of the 1 power and fertilizer plant, says there are not sufficient votes to overcome the veto tlie President is certain to send if he acts on the bill at all. Otherwise it must end in a pocket veto.
