$40,000 by the estate has been «tooled
between George W. Smith. of uric...
port, and the heirs of the late George
Francis Gilman. Ill» eccentric million-
aire tea merchant, by the terms of
which it settlement Is reached of the
Smith claim against the estate for
8290.000. in the settlement. the
Bridgeport Trust Company. Connecti-
cut administrators and those of both
the ftlli blood and tho llaif«blooti heirs
ill New York have Joined.
A petition for permission to complete
court Friday afternoon and next
Friday al‘tt-rnoml at 2 o'clock a hearing
will be held ltpon it before Probate
Judge Cougblln. As all interest» have
joined in the petition IIIt‘I‘t‘ will proba-
bly be no obJet'lIon to a confirmation 'of
the settlement. it is fair to assume
that the probate court Will readily
grant the petition.
Under the terms of the compromise,
Mr.'Smith accepts the offer of the
Bridgeport Trust Company to settle his
claim upon the payment to him of $40,-
000. Of that amount Mr. Smith is to
pay back to the Clinton estate, $30,000
and receive ill return the Clinton estate
property at the northwest corner of
State and Broad streets, part of which
is now occupied by one of the Village
Store Company's stores. There is a
mortgage for 815,000 upon the property
which is to be assumed by Mr. Smith.
The terms of settlement were decid-
ed upon at a conference in this city
Saturday noon, attended by Attorneys
Csnfleld and Judson, representing Mr.
Smith: Judge. George P, Carroll allo
Attorneys Beardsley & Beardsley.
counsel for the Bridgeport Trust Com
pany, Attolneys Bush & Crawford, of
New York city. representing Edward
Norton New York, administrators
for the full blood heirs and Attorneys
Ormiston It McCormack for Theopbillls
Gilman, administrator for the half
blood heirs. -
As a part of the settlement the ad
ministrators agree to release all claim:
which the estate may have against the
Village Store Company and Mr. Smith
agrees to withdraw three appeals he
has taken against commissioners or
the estate. Mr. Smith has been fight-
ing the estate since it reached the pro-
bate court. He filed his claim for
$290,000. but the commissioners on the
estate refused to consider it, so ap-
pealed from their decision and began
a fight in the upper courts.
The settlement of Mr. Smith's claim
against the estate is the third impor-
tant step in a final settlement. The
claim of Helen Potts was recently an-
nounced and prior to that the heirs got
together and settled with George H.
Hartford, manager of Mr. Gilman‘a
train of tea stores all over the coun-
try.
it is said that after the Smith claim
is finally disposed of the heirs will di
vide what remains. The estate will
finally inventory at an amount far be-
low what was originally estimated. At
one time it was said that Mr. Ollman
was worth as much as 850,000,000, but
the present indications are that there
will be about half a million dollars for
the heirs to divide

Beats All Previous Records on Woo
Burn Links, NorOton.
Charles H. Seeley. who has three
times won the championship of Con.
necticut, gave a remarkable exhibition
of golf on the links of the Wee Burn
Golf Club at Noroton Friday, mak
ing a full round of 18 holes in 68
strokes. This beat all records ever
made on the links_ either by profes-
sionals or amateurs, and makes a low
score for the course which probably
will not be equalled for a long whllt
unless Seeiey.» himself. takes the no
tion to prune it down. Seely played
absolutely perfect golf for the sum!
18 holes an achievement which is sel-
dom accomplished by any player. Not
a mispiay nor an error of Judgment did
he make from the opening drive on the
first hole until he holed Out a far five
on the eighteenth. The record of 63
which he made is eight strokes less
than bogey. eight strokes less than
the professional record for the course
held by Walter E. Stoddard, and seven
less than the previous amateur rec.
ord which 89er himself held. There
is probably not an amateur in the coun-
try who could have held Seely yester-
day afternoon while the best of the
professionals would have been hard
put to keep up with him.
"i have played Vardon, Tay-
lor and Baird, and many another top
notcher,“ said Stoddard, the Wee
Burn “pro," ”but I never in all my life
have seen such playing as Seely did
yesterday. i tell you he'd beat Travis.
and Douglas. and all the rest of them
They could not hold him at all. It is a
wonderful performance to play perfect
golf for 18 holes. and on some of the
holes to beat bogey by a stroke or
more."
89er made his record in a three.
ball match with Stoddard and Dr.
Gerrett Smith. 89st started to do
things at the very first hole. making
a par four. The next three holes he
did in three. clipping one from the
bogey score each time. The fifth he
made in four. the sixth in three, two
strokes less than bogey. which was
equalled in the remaining holes going
out. Seeiy's total for the ulna holes
was 33, which is 5 less than the bogey
score. In the second round be con-
tinued his good work, returning a. 85.
His card, together with the bogey fig-
ures, was:

Stoddard played well. making the
course in 77—37 going out and 40 on
the second round. Dr. Smith's score
was 88.
