NIAGARA FALLS, Ont—Claims of several Ontario residents to part of the $20,000,000 tnuff fortune of the late Mrs. Henrietta E. Garrett, Philadelphia recluse, were seen advanced today as several hundred other potential "heirs" were eliminated.
Ontario claimants are: R. C Cal-der. S t Catharines; Mrs.. Anna Clemus, Preston; Mrs. B. Bender, of Waller; Mrs. Elizabeth Fritz and John Schaefer, df Rldgeway; Mrs. George Bender, Mrs. J. B. Gar-bracht, and Mrs. A. Suraus. all of Kitchener; and Adeline Stephan, Sarnia.
The Ontario claims, according to latest inquiry into the case, are on official record today in the offices of William M Davidson, Jr., of Philadelphia, who was named master by the cour^ to conduct examinations into kinship and review proof before disposition of the huge estate left In 1931 by the widow of Walter Garrett, snuff manufacturer.
Far from being a routine court examination, the fight has provided many spirited moments, including the re-opening of Mrs. Garrett's grave in Laurel Hill cemetery on court order, as part of an exhaustive search for a "missing'' will believed hidden in the woman's casket, and the Introduction of numerous "authentic" documents as proof of claims, later found to be fraudulent A
The Nazi government was accused during the hearings of trying directly to obtain the $20,000,000 estate. A petition filed by Wllhelm F. Knauer, attorney for members of one branch of the family, claimed that the German government was the "principal party in interest in the claim of Johann Peter Christian Schaefer, of Bad-Nauheim, Germany," to the property and money left by the Philadelphia widow.
