FOLWELL HELPS OUT,
And the Hospitals Will Get the
Request of Mr.. Martin.

BeQuest of Mr.. Martin.
1t is quite likely that the famous Mar
tin will case will be settled in favor OF
st. Barnabas hospital and the Shelter
ing Arms. The testimony in the case
was concluded Yesterday in the probate
court, Prof. w. w. Folwell being Oh the
stand most of the forenoon. His testi-
mony was exceedingly important. and
in all probability it was on his evidence
that the court will no doubt base its de-
ciSiOn.
Prof Folwell said that he had known
Mr.. Martin for some twenty years, and
that he had been especially intimate
with him during the last three years.
At the time Mr.. Martin. together with
Judge Atwater resigned from the board
of directors of st. Barnaba'S hospital
it was thought that they did so in order
that men OF fewer years and such per-
sons as would use strenuous efforts to
benefit the hospital would succeed
them. Mr.. Martin did not give any
public reasons for leaving the board
except the ones mentioned. In the
summer of 1889, says Prof. Folwell, on
his examination. ''Mr. Martin and my
self went to Keegan's lake together to
look at the property, and also to the
Riverside property for the same pur-
pose. 1t was in effect for the park
board to buy both the Keegan lake
and the Riverside property and to give
to Martin in return therefor city bonds
to run for fifty years: and in case the
park board should do this he would do
nate the bonds to the two hospitals and
have the same used as the principal OF
an endowment fund

Searching the Ruins.

Albert Rlebe, father of Otto Riebe,
who is supposed to have persisted in the
Security warehouse fire, is in the city,
in company with Jacob Hall, cousin
of Otto. They applied to the fire de-
find the body of the missing man.
There is no positive evidence going to
show that the man persisted in the
burning building aside from his con-
tinued absence. The men were at work
yesterday digging in the ruins, but the
work is tedious, and it is the opinion OF
the firemen that if the body is there it
is burned to a crisp. The ruins were
smouldering again yesterday morning,
although it was supposed that the fire
had been entirely subdued.
