his room was found another grip filed with
stamps and box of coins. He also denied
knowing anything about the articles. but
was confronted by Mrs. CusicK. who ln-

Contest

House Of Lords Decides the Berkeley Peerage
Contest.
LONDON, July 31.-The House Of Lords,
sitting as Committee for Privileges, to-
day decided the remarkable and historic
Berkeley peerage claim. The House de-
cided that Randall Thomas Mowbray Berk-
eley has established his claim to the honors
and dignities of the Earl of Berkeley and
Viscount Dursley. The claimant alleged
that the male legitimate issue of the fifth
Earl OF Berkeley, who died in 1910, was OK
tinct, and that he, being the eldest male
heir Of the fourth Earl, was entitled to the
peersge in question. Opposed to this
claim was the claim of Francis William
Fitz-HardiDge Berkeley, Baron Fitz- Hard
inge, who asserted that the fifth Earl of
Berkeley married a woman named Mary
Cole in 17S5, but acting under ad-
vices, a further marriage ceremony
was performed in 1896. Subsequent
10 the death of the fifth Earl the
question arose as to the legitimacy of the
issue born prior TO 1886 and the House
of Lords in 1911 decided the eldest son, who
was born in 17S6, was not entitled 10 the
succession. The decision given to-day up
holds the decision given in 1911. conse-
qnently Berkeley hereafter viii be peer
OF the realm. The House directed that
Baron FitZ-Hardinge be nonsuited.

JUMPED THE TRACK.
Fourteen People injured in an Ohio Railroad
Accident.


BELLAIRE Ohio, July 31.-Another
horror has been added to the late list of rail-
road accidents in Ohio. This morning a
passenger train on tine Bellaire, GAINESVILLE
and Cincinnati Narrow-gauge Railroad. left
the track three miles south of Bellaire, two
cars being overturned and dragged some
distance. There were seventy passengers
On the train. and the two cars turned were
crowded. Assistance was soon at hand
from tile other passengers and trainmen, and
when all was finally taken out of the
wrecked cars ii was found that fourteen
people had been injured four seriously
and one fatally The train was running
thirty-fve miles an hour, and as it reached
the curve the cars were noticed to sway
violently and, unheeding the cries for pas
sengers to keep their seats, rush was
made for the doors. Many frightened
passengers had reached the platform when
the cars jumped the rails, and when they
turned over in another moment they were
hurled into the ditch. The seriously
injured are as follows: John Morris,
baggagema ster, will die; Charles McElroy,
John Irwi II and G. =. Wilcox. In addition
to these many are badly bruised, but able

WASHINGTON, July 31.-Secretary Tracy
has finally decided to award the contract
for building Cruiser No Is to Cramp 81
Sons of Philadelphia. although the Bath
Iron Works of Maine were the lowest bid
ders. In explanation of his action the Sec
retary says the Bath company cannot build
the engines. but proposed to sublet that
part of the work, and it would Ie incon-
venient to have the hull and engines built
at different places. Further than that, the
Bath company admit that they could not
complete the vessel within the contract
time, and finally that it would be too great
risk to give the bnilding of one of the
most important ships in the navy to new
and inexperienced firm.
NICKEL STEEL ADOPTED.
In view of the exhaustive trial made by
the Navy Department, in which the result
demonstrated the superiority and greater
tensile strength of nickel steel as resistant
armor for naval vessels, the Secretary OF the
navy has contracted with Carnegie, Phipps

MRS. SEARLES' WILL
Statement Of One Of the Ey-
eCutOrS.
Why No Provision Was Made for Timothy
Hopkins.
Property Given 10 Him Before Her Death.
What Will Be the Result Of
The Will.
Specialize THE MORNING GAIL.

New YORK, July 31.-The Mail and Ex-
press says: One OF Mrs. Searles' executors
was questioned to-day concerning the pecu-
liar clause in her will regarding Timothy
Hopkins, and he says Mrs. Hopkins -Searles
transferred very considerable amount of
roperty to her adopted son in her lifetime.
and he was so well provided for then that
there was no occasion for making any pro-
vision for him in the will
Thomas II. Hubbard, one of the execu-
tors of the Searles estate, referring to dis
patch from San Francisco saying that TIM
Othy Hopkins would contest his adopted
mothers will. says: "1'hat is evidently
sent upon the authority of Russell j. Will
son, who is the attorney for Hopkins and
also for the Southern Pacific road, of
which Mr.. Hopkins is Treasurer, and merely
expresses his opinion as to what he thinks
Hopkins will do when he returns to this
country. We have had two dispatches from
Hopkins from Yokohama in the past two
days In one of these he expresses his SYM
pathy and regret at the death of his mother
by adoption, and in another SAYS he has
shortened his stay in Japan and will sail at
once for this country. coming East as soon
as he arrives in San Francisco.
''The clause in the will debarring Hopkins
was not, SO far as know, on account of any
ill-feeling between the mother and son, but
simply because Mrs Searles thought she had
done enough during her life for Hopkins,
and there was no further need for any gifts.
She had given him over half a million dol
lars worth of property, besides max ing him
Treasurer Of the Southern Pacific Company,
which position he now holds"
"Will he contest the will on the ground
of undue influence on the part of Searles p"
Mr.. Hubbard was asked.
"Well, hardly, for up TO the time that the
will was made the son had quite as much
opportunity to influence his mother as the
husband had. While Hopkins strongly OBJ
jected to the marriage of his mother with
Searies, as he hoped TO be her sole heir,
still don't know that there has been any
particularly hard feeling between the two
gentlemen. I doubt very much if the will
VIII be contested"
The World says: 1T is generally under
stood in railroad circles that Mrs. Z. f.
Searles acted with Huntington in Southern
Pacific affairs, thus giving him the balance
of p, wer. viii Searles continue this AMIGA
bic arrangement with the President of the
Southern Pacific? If he does not, in whose
favor will he cast the weight of his block of
stock? The name of Leland Stanford has
been mentioned as Huntington's probable
| successor. But this is all matter of con-
| lecture. Huntington secluded himself from
the reporters yesterday, but friend of his
said that ne had no doubt that Searles would
| not disturb the existing arrangements"
