TO CONTEST THE INSTRUMENT. Mrs. Fayerxyeather Gets Leave to
 Withdraw, Her Consent to the Pro-
 batting of Her Husbands WilI-
 Does Not Object. to Her Husbands
 Liberalty to the Twenty Colleges.
 NEW YORK, Dec. 12.-Mrs. Lucy Payer weather, the widow of thedeceased leather merchant, Daniel B. Fayerweather, who by will deeded over $s,00O, 1000 to colleges, got leave from Surrogate Ransom to-day to withdraw her consent to the probating of the will and she will contest the instru- ment. Mrs. Fayerweather does not object to her husbands liberality to the twenty colleges which re- ceived bequests and will probably carry these out should she obtain the power to dispose of the property. What she does not understand is why each of the three executors should receive $1, ,000, 900 apiece without having any claim on the money. The whole estate is expected to realize $6, 300, 900, out of which bequests, legacies and other charges absorb only $1, 750, ,000. Mrs. Fayerweather receives under the will and codicils $10,O0O in cash, the house and stable in Fifty seventh street, and an annual in come of $15,OO0. Under the first codicil to Mir. Fayerweather's will the executors were to receive all that was left over after the bequests to the colleges had been paid and Mrs Fayerweather provided for. The executors are Justus L. Bulkeley, Henry B. Vaughn and Thomas G. Rich. MT. Rich, who is member of the law firm of Ar naux, Rich 6 Woodford, drew the will and it's subsequent codicils. The fourth and last codieil to the will was signed by Mr. Fayerweather on the day of his death. It removed Mr. Rich from the position of simple executor and gave him a joint residuary interest with Vaughn and Bulke ley. The contest will be made on the fourth codicil probably on the grounds of undue influence.

Treasurer Huston's Scheme for In-
 creasing the Volume of Currency.
 WASHINGTON, Dec. 12.-Treasurer Hus- ton has scheme for increasing the vol ume of currency, which he explains as follows: ''We have now in the treasury about SEQ, ,000, 900 in fractional silver coin, mostly five cent pieces, and there is no de- mand for them, but is practically idle money. My suggestion is that congress authorize the transfer of this money to the bullion account and that the secretary be allowed to issue silver certificates or treasury notes therefor, and at his convenience to have the silver pieces coined into standard silver dollars in anticipation of the re- demption of the silver certificates and treasury notes issued in lieu thereof Of course any loss occasioned by such re- coinage would have to be charged up to the silver profit fund. I would also include in the fractional silver before mentioned the trade dollar bullion now on hand amounting to upwards of $5, ,000, ,000, thus making immediately available for the issue of additional currency nearly, if not quite s, ,000, 900 and adding that much to the volume of currency,

UNPOPULAR EXTENSIONS.

The Street Committee Condemns the
 Proposed Extension of Fourth
 Ward Streets-Thc Union Avenue
 Extension.
 There was large attendance of proper ty owners before the committee on streets last night. The full committee was pres ent and several important petitions for changes in streets were considered.
 The first was Alderman Thompson's pc tition for the extension of Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth and Sixth streets to the wa ter line, and the first four also to the boulevard. Alderman Thompson stated he had no personal interest in the matter other than that of citizen, but thought it for the city's interest to obtain possession of as much water front as possible.
 Commissioner Henry T. Blake of the park commission appeared to ask that Fifth street be extended from Hallock street to the water line.
 P. H. Cronan, a resident of this section, opposed the petition and declared it an underhsnded game to get possession of the land.
 Andrew Morehead of Oyster Point did not oppose the extension of these streets | to the boulevard, but thought there could be no benefit in opening the streets to the water line. He said if school boy acted as the park commission is acting in this matter he would be sent to the principal and thoroughly spanked. | James A. Wood did not oppose the ex- | tension of Fifth street.
 Ex-Mayor York, representing the estate of Massena Clark, opposed the petition. Il IIa sasI tho avian ai0na ynnld c0sf mora than the land was worth. He thought l the city was overburdened with streets | now. In five or ten years, said he, the Boulevard sewer will be filled in to form | a street, and then this extension would seem rational, but it does not at present He saw no reason for making any of the eastern extensions, except Fifth street.
 Commissioner States appeared for , number of property owners and strongly kopposed the extensions, except that o Fifth street.
 Selectman Fleischner opposed the open ing of any of the streets to the watel front. He thought Alderman Thompson'
 petition covered something which did no
 appear on the surface.
 Francis Orr and several others offered
 the petitions and James Clark was tn
 only one who favored opening any of tn
 streets across to Kimberly avenue.
 The petitioner, s. s. Thompson, wa
 given leave to withdraw.
 The petition of the Consolidated railroa, to have the order for the extension o Union avenue rescinded was next takel
 up. Judge York for the Massena Clarl , estate opposed the petition as did Edward
 James O. Kerrigan, A. 0. Smith, Den
 his Ward, Hugh Plunkett, P. H. Cronan Andrew Morehead, Jemes Clark
 James N. States favored opening tn
 layout from Spring to Water streets, bu thought the.- property between Wate street and the Union depot too valuable t buy.
 ! Patrick 'Creagan favored granting th
 petition. z ss9.3 s. i.e f Attorney Watrous, for the road, was ur
 prepared to present his case in full owin [ to other business engagements, and u | matter was continued to Monday night. 7 The hearing upon the extension of Con < merce street was also postponed to Monda . | night

Cold Waves

Are predicted with reliable accuracy, and people liable to the pains and aches of rheumatism dread every change to damp or stormy weather. Although Hoods Sarsaparilla is not claimed to be a positive specific for rheumatism, the remarkable cures it has effected show that it may be taken for this complaint with reasonable certainty of benefit. Its action in neutral izing the acidity of the blood, which is the cause of rheumatism, constitutes the secret of the success of Hoods Sarsaparilla. Ii you suffer from rheumatism, give Hoods Sarsaparilla fair trial; it will do you good.

In yesterdays New York World it was stated that Dr. Francis Bacon was the first to experiment in America with the Dr. Koch lymph. The article had reference to those experiments recently made here by Dr. Foster, though no mention was made of him at all. Dr. Fosters attention was called to this fact, but he declined to say anything further than he declined to enter into any claim for priority. He simply knew that Professor Chittenden had re ceived some lymph, supposed to have been the first to come into this country, which he had turned over to him for experimen tai purposes. His patients are doing nice | ly, the customary two being inoculatei yesterday, as usual, and doing well.

MILFORD CHURCH TROUBLE.

The Two Deacons Resign - The
 Church Meeting Sunday.
 Deacons George F. Platt and Henry N. Platt of the First church, Milford, have resigned their positions, and in state ment made by them say that they have acted in accordance with the councils de- dision and ruling. They were not present at the church meeting Sunday, December 2, because they thought matters of per sonal nature would come up and it would be more fitting not to appear. Their resig- nations will be read before the church to- morrow.
 In order to satisfy themselves they ob- tained a written statement from Dr. .Smyth and Dr. Twitchell to the effect that they were of the opinion the deacons would comply fully with the advice given by the council if they availed themselves of the first opportunity to present their resigna- ton. They thought, however, much mis- understanding might have been averted had the deacons presented their resignations by n third party at the meet ing December :. It is probable now that this will heal much of the trouble which has existed in the church.
