DEATH OF MYRA CLARK GAINES.
New Orleans, January 9 Mrs. Myra
Clark Gaines, died tonight, aged eighty
wears. The first suit brought by Mrs
Gaines (then Mrs. Whitney, was against
the trustees for some property left her
by her father, Daniel Clark, under his
will of 1911, which had then been pro-
bated. but eventually that was abon-
doned. as she claimed to have discovered
proof OF a later will, in which she was
| recognized as his sole heir. This will
was never produced in court, but a man
named Francois Dusman de la Croix,
an intimate friend of Clark, testified
that it had been read to him by CLARK
h mself, a short time previous to his
death. He was told that it would be
found after his demise in a little black
box in the room he occupied. As soor
as Mr.. Clark died, De la Croix looked
in the box for the will, but failed to finC
it. This, however, was the basis of thu
claim which she has prosecuted for fort,
years against this city and others VIII

''A story comes from Washington

covered at Cambridge, Nd, which show
that George Washington and Alexander
Hamilton, while joining in the public
expressions of qualification at Lafay-
cites proposal to leave France and
make this country his home, they were
secretly working through Mr.. Murray,
the American minister to the Neither
lands, TO prevent his doing so. They
urged that every obstacle should be in
terposed to his coming. Washington be-
lieved that Jefferson's political tenets
would ruin the nation, and for some rea-
son he was convinced that if Lafayette
came to America he would join himself
to Jefferson, and that, in such an event,
the balance of parties would be Destroy

popularity would carry jefferson on a
