PLUNGED AT MONACO.
Allen Thorndike Rice Was Some
thing of q Gambler.

thing of a Gambler.
NEW YORK, Nov. 17.-The report con-
veyed in a dispatch from Boston to the
effect that the estate Of Allen Thorn
dixie Rice would amount to several
million dollars was laughed at to-day by
an intimate friend of the late editor of
the North American Review and Nine
teenth Century club leader. he said
that as matter of fact the entire estate
remaining to be divided among the
heirs named in Mr.. Rice's will would
not amount to more than s380.000. from
which must be deducted expenses of
settlement and certain debts yet to be
paid. He added that the stories about
Rice's plunging at Monaco and of the
high games Of baccarat at Tuxedo were
true. He claimed that MIR. Rice was an
incorrigible gambler and that he broke
the bank at Monaco more than once,
and won a clean $252.0O0 from Pierre
Lorillard almost at one sitting. But on
other occasions luck went naturally the
opposite way, and about the last act of
his life was to sign two checks for
gambling debts, for sums respectively
of 5000 and $4,000. He gave it as his
opinion that Rice never made anything
out Of the North American Review.

THE ELEVATOR FELL,
And Its Owner Had to Settle With
Those Injured.

Speclal 10 the GloDe.
FERGUS FALLS, Nov. 1.-THE most
important civil case tried at the pres
ent term of court was that of Mrs. C. Fl.
Goodsell VS.. William Taylor. proprietor
of the Grand hotel. of this city. Mr..
and Mrs. Goodsell were injured by the
fall of the hotel elevator. Mr. Go0dsell
sued, and was awarded damages of
s1.27O at the last term of court: but the
defendant maintained that Mrs. Good
sell was not injured in any such meas
ure as Mr.. Goodsell. and declined to set
tie with her on the basis of the award
made by the jury to Mr.. Goodsell, hence
the suit. Among the witnesses were a
physician and an elevator expert from
Minneapolis to testify for the plaintiff.
The jury came in late Saturday with a
verdict of S1.550 for the plaintiff. This
is very satisfactory to the latter, and it
is not thought that the defendant will
appeal the case, there being no points
OIL which such an appeal could be
hinged. Attorney General Clapp an
peared for the defense. and Hon. j. w.
Mason for the plaintiff.
