Any royalties paid to the estate of Arthur Conan Doyle for ripping off the Sherlock Holmes story, The Man With The Twisted Lip?

All of Conan Doyle's work is PD. Which is why so many publishers have Holmes editions, there are so many movies and TV shows, and many new Sherlock books. They don't pay anything for the rights and there is always an audience for Holmes. there is also a Poe story in one of the Yellowjacket books. Same deal.
