Tomas Terry's Millions-Eventful Life
of His Sons Wife.
by telegraph to the REooRD-UNIoN.l
New YORK, November 17th.-Juan Petro
Terry, of New York and Cienfuegos, who
died in France last October left two wills.
They do not conflict as the latter one was
simply drawn to dispose of property inher-
tied after the first will was made. The
second will is in the nature of codicil to
the first, and this is the document which
Consul General Walker sent on from Paris
to the Surrogates to notify the heirs here.
The original will was drawn in New York
in November, 1885, and in it Terry be-
queaths all of his property (then about
$100,000) to his wife, Kate Louise Terry,
and makes her his sole executrix. 1t was
not until August last, when his father died,
that he inherited over 5000, 900 more. I'm
der the second will Mrs. Terry receives
one-fifth of this outright. and her income
from the rest until her unborn child is 81
years of age. She is now residing at the
Continental Hotel, Paris, with her two
daughters by her former marriage-Addie,
aged 13, and Louie, aged 10. Mrs. Terry is
handsome blonde, about 80 years of age.

young was taken to Brooklyn, N. Y, by
her father, E. G. Norman, who subsequently
became Judge of the Brooklyn City Court
When Is years of age she visited an aunt
in England, and there met and married
Charles Ballard. He was man of good
education and fine address, and had consid-
erable money. He turned out to be bank
burglar, and for some time they were
known as Charles Wells and Kate Wells.
They came to this country, and then an
other wife of Bullard appeared, and Mrs.
Terry then took her child and left Bullard.
He was subsequently arrested in Massa-
chusetts for selling some of the bonds
stolen from the Northampton Bank by
Scott and Dunlap. He was tried and SEN
fenced to twenty years imprisonment, but
escaped from Jail, and is now supposed to
be in England. Later, Mrs. Terry met
ried to him in 1881. No divorce from Bull
lard was necessary, as her counsel advised
her that her marriage was null and void.
JIMMY HOPES PARTNER.
Bullard was concerned withJimmy Hope
in the Manhattan Bank robbery here, for
which Hope is now on his way here to be
tried. Tomas Terry, father of Juan P.

bonds, million or so in New York real

millions in France, and the rest in estates

he made his money in sugar speculations.
Two years ago he is said to have cleared
$1S0000 at single operation. He attended
to all his business personally, keeping the
details in his head. He had seven children

THE ELEPHANT TAXES LuEcH.-After
the performance to-day Of " Eighty Days
Around the World" at the Walnut-street
Theater, the trick elephant, seven feet
tall and weighing several tons. was taken
by his keeper for walk. The keeper
stopped at Rudolph's liquor store on Ninth
street, below Walnut, and while he was
taking d dsink the elephant appeared at
the door. Upon entering the place he
made several stamps with his fore feet,
evidently to ascertain if the floor was
strong enough to bear him, and then
walked in. The room was crowded at the
time, and general stampede was the re-
suit. The elephant made bee line for the
lunch counter, and in a twinkling swal-
lowed allthat was ON it, including bottles
of vinegar and catsup. His manager gave
him bucket Of beer which was followed
BY an equal quantity of whisky. Before

WASHINGTON November 17th.-If there
is anything in the world that makes Attor-

if he has resigned. He does not intend to
resign from the Cabinet, and will not do so
unless the President requests it. The
Attorney-General feels that he has been
outrageouslv abused by the newspapers for
his connection with the Pan Electric Tele-
phone. Mr.. Garlands ambition now is to
be vindicated by the people of Arkansas,
and the only way in which he can be vim

A physician of Elmira recently visited

he was seized with sharp pain in the bot

be discovered The foot and leg became
greatly swollen, and during the next nine
years all the joints in his body became
slowly anchylossd, or grown into solid
bone. In 1857 he was placed on an in

from it. So completely consolidated are
all his joints, including the spine, that he
may be lifted by the placing of hand
under his head and one under his heels,
his weight being but rs pounds. The
bones of the fingers of the right
hand, of the entire left hand, and
of the toes of both feet have been
entirely absorbed, and the flesh of the fin
gers and toes hangs down like fringe. Mr..

New YORK, November 17th.-The Com

arrival of California raisins it appears there
was considerable quantity of inferior
goods, which are offered at figures much
below the quotations current for we'll
known brands. This is somewhat of dis
appointment to the trade here, and will we
fear, have an unfavorable influence upon

mind that Eastern merchants are accus-
toned to handling the Malaga fruit. If
they are desirous of finding a good market
here for California products they should
forward only goods that will make favor

talent in the city will convince the jury
that TO kin child OF Mamie's age was only
half murder, whereas had she been a

whole murder, with extenuating circum-
stances such as well if she had not got

CLOSE of the Grape Season.

CHICAGO, November 17th.-A number of
carloads of grapes were received by passen-
ger train from California since our last re-
port Some of the fruit arrived in good
condition, while the rest was in somewhat
poorer order. Prices are lower ali around,
owing to the lateness of the season and the
poor average quality of the fruit. Tokays
are selling at prices ranging from 81 to
So 40 per forty pound crate, according to
condition. Muscats and Verdalls bring 81
az 75. 1t is thought unadvisable to make
any further shipments of California grapes
to this market this season, as there is great
risk of their freezing in transit. Even
should they arrive without freezing, the
quality of the fruit is so poor, and the de-
mand so light that it will not pay to ship
here. Pears are selling at from s. to 81.
Dried fruits are firm and unchanged.

The President Forced to Go Back on the
Mugwumps.
WASHINGTON, November 18th. = The
President has notified the Attorney General
that he has rescinded the order suspending
NJ. E. Benton, q. S. District Attorney in
Missouri, because of his having made
speeches during the campaign. The rein
statement is the chief topic of conversation
among the politicians here tonight Ben
ton wrote the Attorney General, frankly
admitting that he had made speeches in
the campaign, and his letter was forwarded
to Mr.. Cleveland. The President, after
declaring that he did not intend by his let
ter of last July to prohibit Federal
officials for taking a mild part in
campaigns, restores Mr.. Benton to
office. Senator Vest. of Missouri informed
the Attorney-General several days ago that
if Mr.. Benton was guilty of violation of
the Presidents order, Postmaster General
Villas was equally guilty, for Villas left his
duties in the Postotfice Department for the
avowed purpose of making campaign
speeches in Wisconsin a few days prior to
election.
The Stalwart Democratic politicians re-
gard the Presidents letter as an indication
that the recent Democratic losses in Con-
gress have convinced him that too high
respect for the mugwump idea is not alto
gether for the best interests of the Demo-
cratic party. In any event, they are de-
