Huntington's Will.
Nbw Yobe, Augutt 14 la the will of
the late Collli P. Huntington, the con
tents of which was made public today,
the bulk of his great fortune Is left to
his widow and children. . The largest
specific sum In cash mentioned Is $1,000,
iiOO, which goes to Clara Elizabeth, the
Princess Uatzfeldt, the adopted daughter
of the millionaire financier and railroad
man, to be held In trust for her during
her life.
An exact statement of tbe amount
could not be made, fn all probability, so
vatt Is the estate, but the most conserva
tive estimates place the total at $20,000,
000. Those who are in a position to
know, however, place the amount at
from $25,000,000 to $30,000,000. Some
Wall street estimates go as high
$100,000,000. but this Is considered very
excessive. . . . '
