THE CONTEST CASES.
Ills Probable That hey Will Never
Come TO trial.

Probable nat . hey w never
Come TO trial.
Some days ago the defeated candidates
for county offices filed in the district court
papers contestIng the election of their OPP
ponents. The regular complaints, however,
were not filed, simply the notice of contest.
so that suit could be begun if deemed
nroper. 1t was learned Yesterday from re-
liable authority that in all probability no
sutts would be commenced and that the
notice had been flied simply to please two
or three lawyers. Ia speaking of the matter
Chris A. Gallagher, who was candidate for
county attm icy, said:
7 have nothing to do with the matter, any
more than that ] let my name go in among
the others to please Messrs. Knittle and
Johnson. There was no method pursued in
making out the contest papers, and do not
eunpose they could be made to stick do
not think an thug will come from it.
lars NJ. Rand. late candidate for probate
iudge. when asked about the matter. said
that he was not particularly interested in it,
and had allowed the use Of his name for
the same reason as Mr.. Gallagher.

FRANCIS rALns, ESTATE.
The Disposition Made by a Million.
aire of His Estate--A COmprehen-
Siye Will.

aire Of His Estate-.A (Ompreh hen.
siye viii.
DETROIT. Mich, Dec. 1.-The will of
the late Francis Palms. bequeathing his
colossal estate, was flied for probate this
afternoon. 1t is long document. and in
Mr.. Palms own handwriting. 1t names
Francis F. Palms. Clothilde Palms and
Michael O'Brien as trustees for the uses and
purposes OF the will. 1t authorizes his
trustees TO manage the estate, collect the
rents, order repairs, etc., the same as he
would do if living. 1t gives S., 900 to his
brother. Ange Palms, and leaves 81, 600
each to the Little Sisters of the Poor and
st. Vincent's orphan asylum. 1t directs
the payment of one-half the net income OF
his estate to his son Francis +. Deering for
his life and the other half to his
daughter Clothilda. On the death of either
one half of the principal to be divided
in equal proportion between either his or
her children Upon the death of either
without issue the entire net income is to be
paid to the surviving child during his or her
life. Frederick Z. Biggs is named as
trustee in case of vacancy. If either child
contests the will he OF she shall be deprived
of all participation IN the estate and his or her
share given to the other child. The truS-
tees are named as executors. Attached was
codcil signed Sept. Sd, 1886, which di-
rected that royalties and other moneys re
ceIved from leases of mineral lands,
whether such leases were made by him dur
ing life or by his executors and trustees
after his death should be considered pOr
ton of the capital of his estate, and should
be invested as such by his executors and
trustees. The income derived from such
capital is to be paid W his children as pro-
vided in the will and the accumulation
from the same source is not to be continued
longer than the minority of his grand
children now living, after which the roy
allies and income from the mineral lands
should be paid to his children. The re-
strictions in the will directing the executors
and trustees to invest and re-invest the
proceeds of his estate in land in the city of
Detroit and dividend paying securities
were removed and the executors and
trustees authorized to make such invest
ments as in their Judgement seemed best
for the interest of the estate. The same
provision was made against tae contest of
the codicil as in the will. The wish was
expressed that the executors and trustees
should not be required to give bonds The
same gentlemen witnessed the codicii as

WATER POWER WEAK,
And the mills want a Division
Platform Affairs.

And the MILLS want a Division--
Platform Affairs.
The supply of water at the falls is rather
poor and the mill owners held meeting
for the purpose of forming a pool for the
regulation and division of the power. The
matter was discussed, but there was fail
ure to agree. Speaking of the milling sit
uatiOn. the Miller will say in its review:
After gettiz Pat work Wednesday after
noon the mills had no further trouble from
log Jams last week, but the water power was
far from being satisfactory for most of them.
A few got out Il fur amount Of flour Without
the aid OF steam. but they were rather the
exception. The output of the week was l03.-
950 Understanding 1890 barrels daily
against 81, $40 barre he preceding week, and
73.87U barrels for the corresponding time in
1855. In some instances little overtime was
made-wnich contributed somewhat to the
size of the production. This week the power
is poor but with the assistance obtained by
the use of steam, the product will I'M
doubtedly overrun 100000 barrels. There were
eighteen mills running to-day, six of which
were either partly or wholly driven by
steam. Several of those depending on water
entirely are very seriously ma idicapped, no.
being able to get out much over oDe-half
their usu Il output, while as many more are
enabled to run very little short of full capa-
city. The former class have asked that an
arrangement be made 10y which the water
will be more equally divided, and meeting
will be held this afternoon to consider the
matter of forming pool to regulate opera
tons. Those favOraby situated naturally
oppose the move. but as the water power
company has the option of restricting most
of the mills 10 sixteen hours of work per day,
AMI has notified them that this will be done
unless some other plan is adopted, the pool
will doubtless be put into effect 1t is likely
that the mills viii he placed on half time if
such an arrangement is entered into. There
is a brisk dema nd for -four, al about fifteen
cents per barrel advance over fortnight
ago, but with an uncertain power to run
with. mlers are slow to accept orders, some
claiming to have withdrawn from the marker.

HOW THE RUMOR STARTED
can only be surmised. One theory is that
Monday afternoon lady raped at the door
after banking hours and was informed that
the bank was closed. WOnan-like. she
probably supposed banks were kept open
all night, and went about telling people
that the Farmers and Mechanics Savings
bank had closed its doors. This is ALSO
lutely the only hypothesis upon which the
rumOr can be accounted for. unless it was
started by design. Once started, it of
course spread Ike wildhre. The majority
of the depositors are poor people, ami the
possibility of their losing their little earn
Ings excited them to the highest pitch. One
letter carrier is said to have contributed ma
terially in creating the alarm by asking on
his rounds as he delivered his letters Have
you heard about the Farmers and Mechan-
les bank bustin'?"

The DruggistS' Law.

The Drug Clerks association met at Cur
tiss hall last evening. Mr.. Hicks. the pres
dent of the Druggists association. was
present and said his association heartily
favored the clerks object. He thought a
thorough enforcement of the pharmacy law
would serve the best interests of the pro-
prietors and clerks. To secure this end
they should combine to obtain evidence
aga INST men who evade the law. The gen.
eral discussion that followed showed the
clerks to be in accord with Mr.. Hicks Any
change in the present law which looked to
the continuance of registered assistants
should be discouraged. And those persons
holding the assistants certificates should be
persuaded to take the examination for phar-
macists' certificates. thus raising the stand
ard of the profession and making any eva
sion of the law under this head more diff
cult. The meeting adjourned until next
Tuesday evening at 1913 Washington av-
enue south. when a full attendance of drug
clerks and registered assistants is desired.
