ABNER CO l> URN’S RONEY. Hi' Estate Amounts to About 82,000,000 —Nome Well Authenticated State* meats in Regards to the Property. i Skowhegan, Jan 13. 1 here is not the least doubt but ex-Gov. i Coburn’s property was estimated before bis i death at more than double its teal value. People who thought they knew what they j were talking about, said that he was worth not less than six or eight million dollars. This was the general understanding. Two j million dollars comes nearer to tile truth. Mr. Geo. N. Page is cashier of the First National Bank, of Skowhegan, of which Mr. Cobnrn was President. He knows as much about Mr. Coburn s affairs—and that is not much, as Mr. Coburn was very reticent. Mr. I'age was the ex-Governor’s right bower and confi dential man, so iar as he had a confidential man. He often had in his possession and carried back and forth 450,000 or §100,000 of the Governors’s funds, without bond or receipt. He accompanied the G ivernor on his jour- j neys and took care of him. He was with him when attacked by his last illness at Au-1 gusta, and chartered the special train to bring j him home. “There's no need of that,’ said the Gov ernor. “You must keep quiet and let me arrange these matters,” said Mr. Page. “Have you money enough tu pay the hotel bill? asked the Governor, always thoughtful “If I haven’t, I can draw a check said Mr. Page. “Perhaps they won’t take your check, George,” said the Governor, jocosely. Mr. Page says the ex-Governor never gave him any insight into his property and did not even tell him that lie intended to make him one of the executors of his will. But Mr. Page says that in his judgment two million dollars is a fair estimate of the value of his prapertv Since the death of Philander Coburn, with whom the ex-Governor was so long associated in business, the estate of A. and P. Coburn has'never been fully divided. The estate of A. and P. Coburn still has a legal existence, and one of the first things to be done in the probate court is the appointment of some one to act on the part of Philander’s heirs with Abner's executors in the adjustment of his estate. Philander died eight or ten years •go, without a family and without a will. He was very much broken down for a long time before he died. He was an altogether differ ent kind of a man than his brother. l’hilander’a heirs were Abner Coburn, Mrs. Marston and the families of Alonzo, Samuel ami Stephen, making five equal divissions of the property. Abner administered upon the estate anil when he died, had made dividends amounting to .§100,000 to each of these branches of the family. When he made a dividend of course he set aside his half and his filth by inheritance of what Abner left. That is, it lie devided .§100,000, half of it was his own property, as an equal partner in the firm, and one fifth of the other half was his share as an tieir. Consequently he set aside 400,000 for himself and gave 410,000 to each of the four branches of the family. The value of Abner's half of the estate and the undivided part of Philander’a half is believed to he somewhere oetween two and three mil lion dollars. In his will,the ex-Governor has I disposed only of his own part of the A. and p. Coburn estate, of course. lie lias included all his property in the will and his bequests I do not amount to two million of dollars, at a i lair appraist-ment. The story that lie had willed away the property of Philander s heirs, and that they I proposed to contest the will is not well found ed. The idea that the ex-Governor made large losses just previous to his death, and that the estate had shrunken rapidly during the past two or three years, is entirely erroneous, lie made losses, as every man does who invests large sums. All of his investments were not good, but, on the whole, his property is well invested, and has stood up well during the years of depression. Although his estate has not increased any for several years, he prob ably was worth as much on the day he died as he ever was. Many petty impositions were practiced upon the ex-Governor. The story told last week of the man who g, I ml Jan. 13. Yesterday, a number of employees at Oli ver plow works, struck for higher wages and aad compelled all the men to quit. At an early hour this morning two hundred of the strikers congregated in front ol the gate and would notallow anyone to pass. Those who tried to pass through the gate were severely heaten. Officer Kelly, while trying to quiet the mob, was shot through the scalp and badly pounded. Capt. Nicar attempted to go into the office and was hadly hurt about the head, but finally succeeded in getting in and locking the door. He is now a prisoner in the office, his only communication being by telephone to the city. The Veteran Guards of the G. A. R., mustered out about 70 men to rescue Capt. Nicar, who is a member of the Guards. The sheriff empowered them to act as State militia to preserve peace ami disperse the strikers. On hearing this, some of the strik ers h ft the vicinity of the works. Five per sons were wounded. An immense crowd fol lowed the Guards to the factory. Great ex citement prevails in the citv. 1 he Daily New^’, Klkhart, Ind special says In response to orders from Gov. Gray, the Elkhart Veteran Guards left this evening for South Bend, to assist in suppressing the riot there. Further investigation shows that a do/, n persons were severely injured by the strikers ami that two will probably die. Further trouble is feared and the guards are patiently patrolling the streets. Capt. Nicar was res cued by the Grand Army Post, to whom the strikers off* r«*d no resistance. The strikers destroyed several thousand dollars worth of the factory property. At midnight all was quiet among the strik ers. Fifteen of them are in jail, which is guarded by a detachment of troops. The Klkhart Veteran Guards arrived at 9 P. M and one detachment is on duty at the Oliver works. The strikers propose making anoth er demonstration in the morning. If they do bloody work will follow. Coroner’s V erdiet on the lirooklyn Fire.
