PULITZER ESTATE CAUSESDISPUTE Widow, Beneficiary of Trust Fund, Charges Trustees With Being Unfair. NEW YORK, Auk. 29. A dispute between Mrs. Kate -Davis Pulitzer and the executors and trustees under the will of her husband, Joseph Pulitzer, over stock now worth 87,500, was disclosed in the Supreme court when Mrs. Pulitzer filed her answer to the suit brought by the trustees for the Judicial construction of Mr. Pulitzer's will. . The attorneys in the case have insisted since the acton was brought that the act was entirely friendly and was of no importance, but Mrs. Pulitzer's answer shows she believes the trustees are not treating her fairly in several important respects. The trustees accused by Mrs. Pulit

zer are George L. Rivea, J. Angu3 j Shaw, Frederick N. Judaon, her son, ! Ralph Pulitzer and the Union Trust company. Through her attorney Mrs. Pulitzer j says that under the will of her hus- I band the trusttees were directed to set aside a fund of $2,500,000, described in the will as the "widow's trust," the income of which was to go to Mrs. Pulitzer for life, and after her death the principal was to go to her children. Widow Claims Stock Divdend. She said that among the propertyset aside by the trustees to make up the $2,g00,000 fund for her benefit was 2,000 shares of General Electric stock, out of Mr. Pulitzer's total holdings of 5,000 shares, the total worth $735,000 at the time of his death. Mrs. Pulitzer says alter the 2,000 shares were set aside as part of the 2,500,000 fund for her benefit, the Cieneral Electric company increased its capital stock from $80,000,000 to j $105,000,000 and declared a stock divi- i dend of three-tenths of a share on each j share held by stockholders. As a re- j suit of this stock dividend the trus-; tees received approximately 600 shares j of General Electric stock. She alleges! this stock was payable to stockhold- ! crs cf record Dec. 31, 1913, over a year ! after Mr. Pulitzer's death. ' Mrs. Pulitzer alleges the stock divi-1 dend of the General Electric company j was paid out of accumulated earnings i and profits from the operation of the ' business for some years past. ( Question Makeup of Trust Fund. J On those grounds Mrs. Pulitzer al-, leges that the entire 600 shares which ' the trustees h-tve made part of the j principal of the tl'USt fund Constitute , income of the fund and are her proper- j ty. j Pulitzer also Objects to the i Mrs. method followed by the trustees in t making up the trust fund for her ben- i efit. She says that under the terms of ' her husband's will property worth i $2,500,000 at the time of his death on Oct. 29, 1911. should have been set aside for her. whereas the trustees when they took charge of the estate fixed a valuation upon certain securities and set. them aside as the principal of her funds. She alleges that this method was improper.

The report reads: ' Having carefully examined Georce Dunlap as to his mental condition (al-1 tnougn ne is apparently sane on some features) we discover him to be a subject of homicide mania, suspicious and confident in his delusion that former friends are conjuring to rob him of a fancied fortune and also to take his life.

Minister Gdmboa Hopes For Solution of Mexican Ptoblem al Early Date

(Xatlonal News Association) MEXICO CITY, Aug. 29. The text of the answer of Federico Gamboa, Mexican secretary of state for foreign affairs, to the "second note" . sent him by John Lind, President Wilson's confidential agent in Mexico, under date of August 25, was made public here. It contains several interesting clauses. In one paragraph ' the Mexican diplomat quotes Mr. Lind's statement from President Wilson that "If

Mexico acts immediately and favorab-jby ly upon the foregoing suggestions,"

would express to American bankers ' asurances that the government of the ! United States would look with favor ' upon an immfrtiAt 1rn to 1oicn i Answering this, Senor Gamboa begs to be excused from a direct reply for i the time being, other than to say that this suggestion appears to be an attractive antecedent proposal to the j end that moved by petty interests, j Mexico should renounce a right which j incontrovertibly upholds the country i at a time when the dignity of the na-1 I firm at ctnVo i j "I believe," he adds, "that there are j : not loans enough to induce those i j charged by the law to maintain the! dignity to permit it to be lessened."! In another part of his lengthy note, referring to the insistence of President Wilson that Victoriano Huerta binds htmself tiot to be a candidate for election to the presidency at the October elections, Senor Gamboa quotes from the constitutional articles of the Mexican republic to prove that under these regulations, "the secretary of state in charge of the executive power shall not be eligible to the office of either president or vice president when the election thereof shall take place." . This provision, Senor Gamboa intimates, prevents Huerta from being a candidate. "If your original propositions were not to be admitted, they are now. in the more restricted form in which they are reproduced, even more inadmissible," the reply says, " and one's attention is- called to the fact that they are insistent upon, if it be noticed, that which the first proposals had already defined. "Precisely because we comprehend the immense value which is possessed by the principle of sovereignty which the government of the United States so opportunely invokes . . . precisely for this reason we believe that it would never be proposed to us that we should forget our own sovcrolfntv hv nnrmittinf that a fnroifn government should modify the line of conduct which we have to follow ,.- nb1if. ;ity,1 Independent life in "Unfortunately, and in view of the insistence with which his excellency,, Mr. Wilson, sustains his first ideas (election), we are compelled to acknowledKe that we have made a mis-It.-'ke.

'the secretary of state1 j in charge of the executive power shall (not he eligible to the office of either 1 president or vice president when the j elections shall take place.' "This transcription . . . prej vents the constitutional ad interim i president of the republic from being a candidate at the forthcoming elecjtions, and if his excellency, President ' Wilson, had- taken into consideration that paragraph before venturing to 'impose upon us the conditions in ouestion, and which we may not i admit, the present state of affairs be-i j twecn you and ourselves would have i been avoided. I "It clinnli-l hf woll nnrlorstnnfi tlmt (lie ad interim constitutional presi- j dent could not be elected president or j vice president of the republic at the j forthcoming elections, already called for October, because our own laws j prohibit him from being a candidate. I "Ft is perfectly well known that I there does not exist in the whole country a single newspaper, a single' club, a single corporation, or group of individuals who have launched his candidacy or even discussed it. j "On what then is the gratuitous susptcion of the president of the United States of America based and his de- j inand. which is absolutely inadmissible, that in order to comply with the suggestion of the president of the United States the ad interim president of the Mexican republic should enter Into agreements and contract obligations which have never heretofore been imposed upon the ruler of any sovereign nation. "The question having been set forth :is 1 have had the honor of doing in this reply, his excellency, Mr. Wilson, i will have to withdraw definitely trom his present attitude at the risk that his motives . . . may be wrongly i id differently interpreter! Dy an me ; other nations which look upon our ; present internal conflict with more or ;less interest. j "'And although the president of the : Unit'-d States of America should take an altogether different stand from the universal viewpoint, which considers differently an administration under the which the United States of America j occupies such a prominent and legiti-; I irately conquered rank he will cease j to call us a de facto government and ;

"Permit me. Mr. Confidential Agent, not to reply for the time being to the significant offer in waica tiie government of the United" States of America insinuates that it will recommend to American bankers the immediate ex tension of a loan jwhich w ill permit us, among other things, to cover the innumerable urgent expenses required the progressive pacification of the i country; for in the terms in which it is coucnea it appears more to ne an attractive antecedent proposal to the end that, moved by petty interests, we, snouia renounce a ngnt wnicn incontrovertibly upholds us at a period when the dignity of the nation is at : stake. j "I believe that there are not loans enough to induce those charged by the law to maintain that dignity to permit it to be lessened. "Today more than ever we profound-, ly hope for an immediate solution of i the conflict which unfortunately has j 8el)arated " AN EXCEPTION TAKEN the Water To Report cf Works Company i An officer of the Richmond City : Water Works company takes excep- j tion to the statement submitted by his company to the state utilities commission, which was published in the Palladium on Wednesday, claiming that the report is not sufficiently clear on the item of capitalization. In the report the total amount of stock and bonds issued was given at $1,050,000, and the estimated value of ; the concern as $770,000. The incorrectness of this, according to the water 1 company's representative, is that the $350,000 preferred stock is a new is- ; sue, 51:00.000 ot which is to lie used 111 , ) retiring the $250,000 of bonds that are due this fall.

What Weuld You Do if You Foil Heir to Throe Hundred Millionot Some time ago a man was "kmoek Ing Andrew Carnegie for "the crazy Idea, of putting up all those libraries," and finally for lack of something else to say, I asked him casually: weiL what would you do If you had 900 millions dumped into your lap?" Ue gulped once or twice, went Into a sort of trance, and finally said: "Why I'd I'd why. blamed 'f I know- and then we talked about something else. .

"Buy all the pork and beany In the world and throw thexs to the fishes, etc, these being a few of the actual answers given me.
