JLEITER HEIRS 9 GO TO COURT Nobility Represented in Suit Against Trustee. fu United Pres * CHICAGO, March 18.—Nobility paraded into a business-like Superior Court here today as dissatisfied heirs of the late Levi Leiter, Chicago merchant prince, fought for a $30,000,000 prize. The heirs are fighting over management of the estate which for the past few years has -been in the hands of Joseph Leiter, son of the pioneer merchant. The noble descendants of Leither contend Joseph’s hands have been too busy building up his private fortune. Heading the dissatisfied group is Lady Margaret, Countess of Suffolk and Berks, who instituted the original suit to oust Joseph as trustee. She is the daughter of the late Lord Curzon, who married Mary Leiter, daughter of the trustee. While Lady Margaret is the only one of the noble women represented in court she is given moral support by Lady Cynthia Mosely, another heir of Lord Curzon. Marriage Licenses Elmer E.
