Orlando B. Potter died without having made a will. was made In the Surrogate's office yesterday for the granting of letters of administration to his son, Frederick Potter, who lives In Ossining, Westchester County. Mrs. Mary Kate Linsly Potter, his mother, renounced her right to serve as administratrix in favor of her son, and the letters were granted.

Frederick Potter, in his petition to be appointed administrator, estimated the value of the real estate left by his father In this State at "upward of U.000,000." and the value of the personal property at $500,000. He was required to give a bond of Sureties were furnished by his sisters, Martha and Blanche. The heirs to the Orlando B. Potter estate are his widow, Frederick, and three sisters. They will Inherit from ten to twenty millions.

Mr. Potter's real estate holdings in this city alone were valued at over $6,000,000. His property Included the Arcade Building at 71 Broadway, the Potter Building at 38 Park Row, the large building adjoining Grace Church. on Broadway, the entire south side of Aator Place between Broadway and Lafayette Place, and a number of dwelling houses. It is thought by those who knew Mr.

Potter bent that it was due to neglect that he died intestate. His friends say that it was always his Intention to execute a will, but he still considered the necessity far distant. Only four days before his death, he was approached on behalf of a charity work. In which he was known to be Interested. It was suggested that he ought to give substantial aid to the enterprise.

There Is lots of time for that." was Mr. Potter's reply. I will see that It is amply provided for." So far as known, no other man of the prominence and great wealth of Mr. Potter ever died in this city without leaving specific Instructions for the distribution of his fortune.

Mors Evldenoo Conaeotlng Congblln with tho Croaln Murder. CHICAGO, Jan. 8. A court stenographer spoke this afternoon at the trial of Daniel Coughlln for the most Important dead witness. Patrick Dtnan.

Ills story of the white horse which figured In the Cronla murder and tne conversations with the detective forms one of the most binding links In the 'chain of circumstantial evidence upon which the State proposes to rest Its case. Dtnan testified that on the afternoon of May 4, 1SS9. Coughlla came over to tho stable from the Turner Hall saloon across the street and said; A friend of mine will call to-night for a rig. Let him have one." What kind of a rig do you want me to give him?" asked Dinan. "Oh.

almost any kind." What time will he be after ltt" About 7 o'clock." i Promptly at the appointed hour a man entered the stable, went up to Dinan, and asked: Did Mr. Coughlln order a horse and buggy for me? The witness said Yea." I want It" was all the stranger said, and Dinan's answer was. "All right; you shall have It" Coughlln's friend objected to taking the white horse, and when he saw tho sorrel horse being hitched vp for Jones, the blacksmith, asked for that one, but Dinan refused, not knowing: where the stranger was going. Where are the side curtains? asked the man who drove the white horse. "I don't know, and It will take a longtime to find them.

It Is a dark night and no one will see you If you want to be disguised," was the liveryman's answer. The stranger growled and mumbled something to himself." Not a word was mentioned by Coughlln or the stranger May 4 about the pay for the hire of the horse. Inspector Schaak two days later sent aa officer to Dinan's stable to Inquire if he had let a white horse Saturday night Dinan was In bed, and when Informed, asked if the officer was in plain clothes or uniform. In uniform," said the employe. The witness then said, Tou tell him That wa done under police orders to recognise no one but the Captain and detectives In regard to hired rigs.

The witness that day went to the Chicago Avenue station and saw Coughlln. What's the matter. Cap? asked the defendant You look excited." Well, it's about time I was excited when officers come to my place before learn up and ask me about letting a white horse on Vhat horse did you let him haveT Inquired Coughlln. i The white horse." replied Dinan. Don't say anything, about it" Coughlln said.

Cronln and I have not been good friends for a year and a half, and tt might get me Into trouble." Coughlln met the witness a few days afterward and said: "I found the man who took the white horse, after a long search. found him at the Northwestern station taking a train for New-Mexico. He gave me $3 and said there- wa nothing la it My feet are sore looking for him. I will pay you when the first pay day comes around." All right," said Dinan, and they parted. There wa no great interest In the evidence of the others who testified to-day.
