longer any denial that Impeachment

who advise against this step

yor Weaver now would only strength-
en his position with the public.

that the vote will stand. Every effort

Attorney General Makes Como
prehensive Finding in Pro-
bate Cases, Giving List and
Claims Involved
Attorney-General William A. King
filed an Important report concerning
the Atwood probate suits with the
state treasurer on Wednesday. The
report. is the most complete and com-
pnehenslve statement published on
these interesting stilts. it fills 21
printed pages; and gives a full list of
all the estates Involved, and the
claims on which the 237 suits are bas-
od.
Attorney-General King decides that
the statement that the Gtiman estate
in the Bridgeport. probate district was
brought to the attention of the state
by the Atwood slllis Is incorrect. He
finds that Attorney-General Phelps in-
stituted proceedings In the Gllnlan
case ill 1902. A decision of the Sn-
preme Court in 1904 caused the pres.
ent attorney~general to bring action
against the estate. The question in-
volved was not the filing of an Inven-
tory, the attorney-general says. for that
had been done, but including in the in-
ventory the property outside the state.
Mr. Atwood brought no suit against
the administrator of the Clinton estate.
Attomayflenaral's Summary.
The summary of the attorney-gener-
a'l's report gives the following informs
ton: .
Whole number of estates. ,, 237
Estates exempt from tax, 224
Estates in which tax has been paid. 5
Estates undetermined as to ain-
nlolllll. (3 in district. of New Mll-
ford, i In Groton). 4
Estates unsettled, liable to tax. 4
“The estates included herein com.
prise the subject matter of the 237
stills which the clerk of the court in-
forms me are now pending in court.
I understand that manyother eslaics
were Involved ill sniis brought by Mr.
Atwood and subsequently withdrawn.
Of these i have no record. however.
and they are not included.
“The report. is based on ‘Incis and
information furnished by the judges
of probate in their respective districts.
except. In a few cases, where the In-
formation was furnished by individ‘
uals.
“All the reports of the judges of
probate. and others. containing the in-
formation embodied herein, are on file
in this office.
"i suggest for your consideration the
desirability of sending a copy of this
report to Oilt'll of the judges of probate.
lo the end that if there are errors
herein. affecting tho state's interest.
they may be corrected."
Why investigation Was Made.
The attorney general states in the
report that be caused investigation to
be made of the estates which are the
subject matter of the socailed "At-
wood suits,” to determine whether any
Inheritance tax has been withheld
front the state by the. cxculors and
administrators of those estates. He
adds: ~
"In determining whether an estate
is subject to the inheritance tax, the
law in force at the date of the deed
dent‘s death Is of controlling lll'lpOl‘v
lance.
“The Inheritance tax law was enact-
ed in 1889. and took effect August I
of that year: It was modified by an act
which became In force July 1. 1803:
and radically changed our present law.
June 1,1897. The estates affected
have accordingly been tabulated on
that basis. and are grouped to probate
districts.“
The first chapter of the report rc-
laics to estates involved in the At-
wood suita. where decedent's death
occurred on or after June 1, lliilf, not
subject to an Inheritance tax. and
says: “The law regulating the law
lion of these estates made taxable all
that portion of the estate which. after
the payment of debts and expenses of
settlement. exceeriod 810.000 In value
by whomsocver Inherited."
A long list of estates which come
under this class lsgtvon. The second
chapter gives a list of all estates In»
volvcd in the Atwood suits where the
docs-dents died on or after August i.
1880. and before June I. 1807. which
are not subject to an inheritance tall.
and also gives the law regarding them.
The third chapter relates to estates
Involved in the Atwood units which
were subject to an Inheritance tax.
and In which the tax has been paid to
the state.
The fourth chapter concerns estates
still unsettled. Involved inttho Atwood
suits. subject to an inheritance tax, on
which the tax has not been paid.
Th fifth chapter relates to estates of
persons dying before an Inheritance
tax was in force. '

'I‘SINGTAU. May 20.»The wholo
Russian fleet is' assembled near Wm
sung. and the German squadron at
'l‘slngtau is preparing for eventuall-
ties.
The report from 'i‘singiau, the port
of the German concession at Klaochou,
Shantung peninsula. is in all prob-
ability the magnified version of the
despatch to the Associated Press from
Shanghai yesterday saying that-it was
credibly reported there that certain
Russian vessels had arrived at the
mouth of the Yangtse River yesterday
afternoon. Both Woostmg and Shang-
hai are situated on branches of the
Yangtsc River. The Chinese ashore
doubtless exaggerated this report Into
a statement that the whole Russian
fleet was assembling off Wooaung.
There. is no doubt that If the Russian
fleet really had assembled off Woo-
s‘ung, such important news would have
been flushed from Shanghai. which is
only eleven miles south of that place.
'l‘OKlO. May 20. ii a. m.——lt.la be-
lieved here that the action of the

Shauhni is part of a divorslon plan
to draw off a portion of the Japanese

the faster vessels is regarded to be
without purpose unless an a diversion.

In terror of riotous uprising in the
vast area embraced by their yards and
plants. a district peculiarly inviting
to incendiarlsnl.
in anticipation of trouble in the lum-
ber district, the. mayor Instructed
Chief of Police O'Neill to close all sal-
oons where crowds were permitted to
gather.
in preparation for a protracted
strike siege the teamsters‘ joint. coun-
cil has arranged to send agents to all
parts of the. country for the purpose of
gathering funds. it Is the ambition of
the strike leaders to raise $1,000,000

Solicitors probably will start from
Chicago next week on their mission.
They will visit every local union in
the United States, solicit funds and en»

One of the grill moves of the strike
leaders to ke p the, men ill line will
be to increase the weekly strike belle
fits. The drivers on strike now re-
ceive $10 a week. The express drive

the oltlcials. to pay its nine hundred

Strike riots have begun near the
lumber district. At 35th and Morgan
streets. twenty lumber and ‘shaving
wagons. fourteen of which belonged to‘
the thlcnhouse & Embree Company
and guarded by upwards of forty p0
lice. were attacked by a crowd of more
than 100 strike sympathisers with
bricks, stones and sling shots.
While the police used clubs. the
fighting waged lndeclslvely. Finally
the police drew revolvers and charged
lhe crowd. At the sight of firearms
the mob tied wholesale. No arrests
were made. Nearby police on guard
were later forced Indoors. Many of
the strike sympathizcrs armed them-
selves with small air rifles and from
behind lumber piles and buildings fired
at the police. a number of whom were
struck without being able to see the
assailants and were finally forced to
take refuge in office and other nearby
buildings.

A crowd of several hundred cltlml
filled the assembly hall in Wall street.
at last night's town meeting, called
for the purpose of hearing the report
of the committee appointed to invas—
tlgatc the methods of the aelectnlen ,
In supplying rents, groceries and coal
to the town poor. While many who
had come expected dramatic situations
were somewhat disappointed, the conic
mittcc made known a number of cases
in which the town to being practically
defrauded by applicants for assistance
who are able to earn their otvn living,
As the meeting, according to the
call, could do nothing except to hear
the report. a motion was made and
carried- that it be the sense of the
meeting that the selectmen call RIP
other town meeting to revise the
methods of giving assistance to' the
poor of the toivn and to transact any
other business in connection with con-
ducting the affairs of the town. The
motion was made by Attorney J. Bel-
den liurlblltt. who recommended that
before assistance is given. the full
history of the applicant be taken.
These. he thought, should be revised
at least semi-annually, andlthls would
been dead wood off the books.
The special committee. William War-
den and Charles A. Burr. reported that
they had investigated forty-seven
cases III South Norwalk and fifty-eight
in Norwalk, a total of 105. the whole
number on the town books. The
spokesman of the committee was Mr.
Warden. who read the report.
Numbers were substituted for
names, as It was believed thatthe
names of worthy persons on the books
should not be paraded before the null
lIc unnecessarily. “I . "
