Attorney Riddle has given an opinion on
two of the questions submitted by the liquor
license board. In relation to the first question
he states that "an agent properly created by
power of attorney or any sufficient writing
which authorizes him to lease the property
and collect the rents will empower him to
sign applications for license. lie should pro-
duce the written instrument. A note from
such agent to tho board to tue effect that he
is an agent will not answer. A letter from
the owner that a named person Is so author.
lied will do" In relation to the question
as to whothcr names Of residents on tho
square opposite Is necessary whero public
reservation or triangular space iniervenes, he
says: If the square Is vacant and unoccu-
pied there Is no one to assent or dissent and
there is nothing to be said; ii occupied by q
government department or building the
chief may sign or refuse"
The board yesterday granted license to

The argument in the case Of tho estate of
Mrs. Ann Pckrc has been concluded in tho
probate court and Justice Cox has taken the
Cusc under al yiscmcut. This is matter of
considerable interest and involves tho dispo.
sition of quite Il large amount Of money
and property. The will was prObated, ad-
minstratOrs appointed, accounts rendered,
distribution ordered and made, and the
property passed into the possession OF what
was supposed to be the legitimate heirs. Since
that time ten OF the executors and some ofthe
witnesses to The will have died. Recently Mr..
William NJ. Coleman, in behalf of the heirs in
the state OF Illinois, filed caveats and en-.
dpayored TO have the probate OF the will re.
vOked and again prObated In Solemn form"
SO that they may assai tho will rs not having
been executed in conformity with law. The
respondent, who is the last surviving
executor of tho four named IN the will, claims
that the petitioners committed gross laches;
that they knew Of the probate in tho month
Of May lS7i, ana could then have learned nil
they claim to have ascertained since; that
they have waited until the death of tho two
executors and two Of the witnesses to the will
before institutiug the proceedings for revoca-
tiou Of the probating. Messrs. Fred w.
Jones and Darcy Paul of Baltimore, Md,
appeared for the respondent. Justice Cox will
probably rendered his opinion aud decision

Death Of a wen-Knovn old Printer.


Captain Edward Branch Robinson, for over
half = century q resident Of Washington aud
probably one Of the best known printers IN
the Uuitcd States, died early yesterday morn
ing at his residence, No. 3i9 Eighth street
northwest, In the soventy'siKth year OF his
age. lie was stricken with paralysis on tho
10th instant, and gradually sank until ho was
relieved by death. He was born in Chester
field county, Va learned the printing trade
in Richmond and came 10 this city in 1925. He
worked Mt his trade on the National Journal,
the Telegraph. and other publications, now
almost forgotten, aud was at intervals en.
ployed by Messrs. Gales & SeatOn, the we'll
known publishers. Among his fellow
workmen at different times were men
who have since risen to distinction, nota-
bly, Ex-senator Simon Cameron, Senator
Sargent of California and Lambert Tree. He
at various times made journalistic ventures ut
Abingdon, Va, aud other places. lie COM
manded a volunteer company in 1885 ia TIC
Crock war, and upon his return served vs. mail
agent between this city and Richmond for
three years He held the Office OF deputy.
collector of Georgetown between 1854 aud
1886, and when the war of the rebellion broke
out went to Richmond, where ho remained
during the war in the emnloymCnt of the con.
fcdcrate government. Upon the close OF the
war he returned TO Washington, where ho has
sinco resided, being engaged at his trade oNc"pt
Tor the period of two or threO years, wheh ne
held the olico Of justice OF tho pescc. He
was man of strong convictions, but being
upright and honest he was respected aud
esteemed by every one. lie WAS u prominent
loader in all workingmen's organizations, hnd
was for many years u consistent member OF
the Jackson Democratic association. lie was
flmiliarly known as "Bull" Robinson name
that was given him on uccNuut Of phrase he
was fond of using in political speeches, i'm.
pressing upon his hearers the necessity Of
taking the bull by tho horns. For many
years he figured In Washington as char
aoter," the word being used in no offensive
sense. His old.iashioned aud rather eccentric
ways and appearance, sturdy honesty, dry
wit, forcbe expression, aud Il propensity for
Harding his speeches with Latin quotations,
made him always a conspicuous figure in the
public assemblies in which ho took part.
Despite his radical views he was liked by
every one. Ho leaves wife sud one son.
The funeral, which will take place next Sun.
day afternoon at o'clock, will be attended
by the Oldest Inhabitants, the Typographical

1hn Franklin Fuse.

After many experiments Major NJ. w. Barr
has succeeded in perfcctDg his device FOR
exploding shells on tho surface of water by
means of frlctionil electricity lie has chris.
tened it "the Franklin Fuse" It consists of
long, narrow leyden Jar, with n charging
wire extending from the mouth Of the jar to
the foil and another for discharging the jarex-
tending from the mouth to near tho foil, its
lower end covered with any substance capa.
bic Of ignition by an electric spark. The
charging wire is provided with a spring for
drawing it from the foil, but which is re-
strained from action by means Of tallow or
some easily melted substance. Tho fuse, after
sufficient powder has been placed in it to frlc.
ture It, is put in the shell and properly
charged with electricity. The ball is then
fired from the cannon. The heat caused by
firing melts the talOw and the released spring
draws the charging wire from the foil leaving
tho electricity in tho Jar no escape
but through the combustible material on the
lower end Of the discharging wire. The
discharge will take place the moment the ball
reaches water, or any other conducting sub
stance, and the shell will explode. As long as
the charging wire is held In contact with the
foil there is no danger of the discharge of tho
fuse. The charging wire cannot leave its
position until the heat from firing the gun
has softened the talow, SO that u premature
explosion of the shell Is impossible.
The device in pallor practice meets the
wishes aud hopes Of tho inventor and his
friends, and should'it act equally well in the
rough service for which 1t Is intended, Major
Barr will be amply rewarded for his labor and
ingenuity, as governments are very generous
in compeusating Inventors of successful imple
meuts of destruction.
