The payment of £540,800 in fees to lawyers employed by the child- ren, grandchildren and great- grandchildren of the late Mr. Jay Gould in the litigation regarding his estate has been approved by the State Supreme Court which held that the fees were reasonable in view of the difficulties in con- nexion with the case.

The value of Gould's estate was once estimated at $100,000,000. The Court approved the settlement whereby $16,000,000, is distributed among the six trust funds which Gould established for his six grandchildren.-Renter's American
