SPRINGER FORTUNE

Robert Blesh and J. S. Teeters were passengers out on the Davenport train last Friday, with St. Louis as their destination. These two gentlemen are interested in the reported great Springer fortune which is now being worked up by several able lawyers, who called a meeting of the heirs at St. Louis this week. There must be a fair prospect of recovering something, as their lawyers have agreed to take the case for a percentage, not asking advance as is commonly done.
