ELOQUENT LAWYERS ARGUING WARMLY
CONTESTED SUITS.

Peculiar Dispute Over the Payment of
Collateral Inheritance Tax-Plncing the
LinbiIiry for Debt-A Quarrel Over
Timber Land.
The Supreme Court heard arguments in a
number of cases yesterday. The counties
whose cases are first on the list for argument
are Beaver, Clarion, Fofest, Greene, Jeffer-
son, Venango and Westmoreland. Ten cases
were summarily disposed of by non presses be-
ing entered against the appellants
An argument was heard in the case of the
Commonwealth against John Albert Ferguson,
executor of John Ferguson, an appeal bv
Ferguson from the Common Pleas of Beaver
county. The action was stated case in regard
to the payment of a collateral Inheritance tax.
The defendant, John Albert Ferguson was an
illegitimate son of John Ferguson, and by an
act OF Assembly passed in ISL, his adoption by
John Ferguson as his heir was authorized. The
act of Legislature was necessary for the adop-
tion as the son was over q years of age, and the
courts had no control in the matter. John
Ferguson died. and by his will left his estate,
worth about SIS 900. to his son and grand
children. 1t is now claimed on the part of the
heirs that they are not subject to the payment
of a collateral inheritance tax on the ground
that they were legitimated and made l1neal
descendants by the act of Assembly authoriz-
ing the adoption.
It was held by the other side that the act of
Assembly did not make Ferguson lawfully
begotten child" as required by the collateral
inheritance tax law, and the lower court de-
cided in favor of the Commonwealth,
The case of Alfred and Catherine Campbell
against the Pittsburg ana Western Railway
Company an appeal by the defendant from the
Common Pleas of Clarion county was argued,
The suit was an action to recover from the

Western Railroad Company, which was after
ward sold and the franchises and property pur-
chased by the Railway Company who it is
claimed is liable for the debt.

mon Pleas of Greene county was heard. The
suit was dispute over the distribution of
money due the estate of Daniel Keys from the
estate of John. Keys.
The appeal of John M. Stewart from the Or
phans' Court of Forest county was argued.

sale of property belonging to the estate of ]. J.
Hazlett.

Guests Fouud-The Reception Commit.
tee to Meet sbe Party MT Altoona To.
Morrow.
Chairman W. L. Abbott, of the Executive
Committee having in charge the arrange
ments for the Iron and Steel Institute, yes
terday issued call for meeting of the
committee at 2 o'clock this afternoon in
Mr.. Abbott's Office, sNo. 48 Fifth avenue
At the meeting the final arrangements will
be made for the reception and entertainment
of the distinguished visitors. Nearly every
thing is in shape but there are few tag ends
to be attended to. In speaking of the meeting
yesterday. Mr.. Abbott said:
1--WE have at last found room for all the peo-
pie. We had considerable trouble at first. on
account of not being able to secure good ac-
commodations, as the hotels had not the room.
To-day quite a number of citizens came for
ward and agreed to take care of some of the
visitors. The latter will be given badges and
the desire is to show them every possible at
them to and from the residences of the citizens
who will entertain them, and do not think
there will be the slightest jar in the arrange
ments. At Philadelphia the party had trouble
about their baggage, but in this city they will
find their luggage in their rooms when they
arrive"
Tomorrow morning the local reception CON-
mittee will leave in a special car for Altoona,
where the visitors will be met. The day will be
spent in Altoona, Johnstown and Jeanette,
and the party will arrive in Pittsburg about 8
o'clock the same evening" At the Union station
the P1ttsburg committee will have several hun
dred carriages to convey the guests to the hotels
and houses where they will be quartered. The
party is travelling in three special trains and
altogether there are about $50 guests.
Between 500 and LOGO cards have been issued
for the reception at the Duquesne Club Thurs
day evening. 1t will be full dress affair, and
nobody will be admitted without card.
A slight change MAJ have to be made in the
break in shaft at Spang's steel mill in Sharps-
burg yesterday the accident threw the three
mills idle. 1t will take several days to repair
the damage.

THROUGH THE TEMPLE.

Henry Bechtel, Bookkeeper, Dies By n
Shot Fired by Himself-LiIrle Doubt
Tint He Was Driven to Suicide by De-
spair-Nor nm Instant Death.
Henry Bechtel, bookkeeper for Strass-
burger & Joseph, of Federal street, ALLIE
gheny, killed himself yesterday morning by
a pistol shot through the right temple.
There is bare possibility that the shooting
was accidental, but everything indicates
that it was premsditated.
Bechtel lived at No. 105 Pennsylvania
avenue with his wife and one child. He
arose about o'clock and went downstairs for
breakfast. Before eating he returned to his
shot Two physicians were called in, but their
efforts were unavailIng and the wounded man
died at 8:45, without having regained conscious
ness. For some time past Bechtel has been in
the habit OF sleeping on a lounge. At night he
would place an old-fashoned revolver under
the same, and remove it to a bureau drawer in
the morning.
Two years ago Bechtei applied for retail
liquor license in Allegheny There was an
other applicant by the samehame in the vicin-
1ty. and the latter was successful Bechtel al
ways claimed that it was a mistake, and that he
should have had the valuable document Since
al weeks ago he decided to go into the retail
grocery business on Pennsylvania avenue. He
rented place and had ordered 81. .0OU worth of
goods His accounts with the firm where he
was employed were all correct, and the last the
members saw of him he seemed to be in very
good spirits.
Bechtel was German, As years of age. and
was Tor some years a soldier in the Prussian
army. He was member of the knights of
Honor and an Odd Fellow The Coroner will

EXPOSITION PEOPLE LEAVE,
And Call at Kleber Bros.

After viewing the splendid sights at the
Exposition most Of the visitors (who mean
business) call at III. Kleber & Bro 8, SOC
Wood street, and select one of their supe-
rior pianos and organs. They know in their
hearts that to make fine show is one thing
and to give people the very finest instru-
ments at the price OF the common, second
class goods is quite another thing. The
Messrs, Kleber & Bro. enjoy the fullest con-
fdence of the public, and whether they ex-
hibit or not, whether they hold forth on the
principal business street Of Pittsburg, Wood
street, or in Diamond or Virgin alley, the
public will seek them out and congratulate
themselves that they have found out the
place which is utterly safe and reliable, and
above the sharp tricks of new houses which
have come in at the eleventh hour, and
which have to rely upon the credulity of the
public to get rid of their goods-using clubs
and other knock.down arguments to bull
doze their callers into buying their inferior
wares-articles which the Kleber Bros. had
long since rejected as unworthy of being as
sociated with their honorable record and
name. Such pianos as Steinway's, Como
ver's, Opera, Gabler, Emerson. and organs
such as the great Vocalions, Earhuff dust
proof and Burdett, cannot be duplicated in
this country. Klebers give an eight-year
warrantee and sell on easy time payments.

HE Is GREATLY GRATIFIED,
j. b. Scott Says Councils Acted Wisely In
Taking the Schenley Park Entrance.

]. b. Scott snys Councils Acted Wisely In
Taking the Schenley Park Entrance.
Mr. J. B. Scott, when Informed last night of
the action of Councils in regard to the Schen-
ley Park entrance. expressed himself as highly
gratifed. He said it was certainly the best
thing that could have been DONE and the pur-
chase will be wise one. The property was
needed to complete the gift, and above and be-
yond that it would not be many years before
$4,000 would not touch the 19 acres. When the
city got possession of this property streets lead
ing to the park could be cut through in the most
desirable locations; whereas, had it not been
secured, the streets would have been very awk-
ward.
Mr.. Scott says the park will not be used by
Pittsburgers alone. He is satisfied that Allie
ghenians will patronize:it it very freely. He
says that within year he will be able to 60 to
the park on street cars from the corner of
Irwin and Western avenues in 20 minutes. The
time by horse car from that point to Pittsburg
is now IA minutes. and from the terminus to
the park is but II minutes ride. He is satisfied
that the improvements in rapid transit will re-
duce this total time at least six minutes. When
people began to understand this he said the
travel there would be enormous. particularly
on Saturday afternoons and Sundays.
