Mine-Owners About to Test Constitu-
tionality of Coinage Laws.
PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 3.-Today Judge Harley
B. Morse and George C. Merrick, of Denver, Col,
called at the United States mint in this city with
a brick Of silver weighing BIAS ounces fine, pre-
sgDted it to the weighing clerk and demanded
that IL be coined into money. Upon their de-
mand being refused they waited upon Colonel
Bosbyshell, superintendent of the mint, and
made the same demand verbally of him. Colonel
Bosbysheu refused to accept the brick for pri-
yate coinage, and Morse and Merrick then pre-
sented him with a formal demand In writing.
After presenting the demand Merrick asked
Colonel Bosbyshell to give them certificate or
letter certifying that he and Morse had offered
their silver for coinage and that it had been re-
fused by him so that they might be saved the
trouble of proving the fact In court, where they
propose to test the right of the government
request Colonel Bosbyshell gave them the letter.
After receiving Colonel Bosbyshelrs written re-
fusal to receive their bullion the two gentlemen
wrapped up their brick and departed.
The ground upon which Morse and Merriek
base their demand is that their claim is consti-
tutfonal one, and they deny the right of the
government to make what is known as "seign-
orage' at the present market value of silver.
Bullion is 103l3 cents per ounce fine of 374
grains while the actual value of an ounce when
coined into silver dollars is 129.29l cents. When
the government buys bullion it pays the market
bullion price and makes difference, which is
s'seignorage," between that price and the legal
tender value. 1t is the ''seignorage' which the
gentlemen who presented their silver brick at
the mint today think they have as much right
10 as the government.

TWELVE M1LLIoNs IN DISPUTE.
VIII of the Late A. j. Davis, of Helena,
Alleged to be q Forgery.

HELENA, Mont, Jan. Especial 1.-The con-
test for the estate of A. ]. Davis, involving
about 81, ,0O0,000 assumed a new phase today.
b. A. Root and Mrs. Cummings, heirs of the de-
ceased, who contested the appointment of John
Davis as administrator aud who were
defeated in the supreme court, now
propose to prove that the win recently
discovered purporting to be the last will and
testament of the late millionaire, is q forgery.
The contesting heirs notified the administrator
today that application would be made in the
district court OF Silver Bow county Monday to
have a commission appointed to take
the testimony of some twenty persons
living in Iowa. They propose to attack the
character of ]. c.. Sconce, the only living witness
to the instrument An expert photographer has
pronounced the win forgery, and an effort is
to be made to establish the fact that Sconce
wrote the names of Job Davis and John DAVIS,
the other witnesses, both of whom are dead, a.
the writing resembles his own.
The contestants also declare it to be their in
tention to go into the history of Caroline Bur.
gett, mother of pet Davis, the alleged illegiti-
mate child of the late A. j. Davis, the mother
and child being benefciaries of the recently
discovered will. Mrs Burgett is married.
and now is supposed to be in Texas.

ises to prolong the litigation to an uncertain
end and to show up to the public gaze all the
sensational incidents of long bachelor life

Nominations of this city are at ioggerheads with
the Ministerial Alliance because the latter left
the former out of the programme for the union
week OF prayer beginning Monday. A few weeks
ago an attempt of the First Baptist church TO
withdraw the hand Of fellowship from Rev. Nc
Lafferty, formerly pastor of that church. was
denounced by the members of the Min
isterial Alliance as scandalous and un-
precedented. During the controversy
which followed 1t was developed
that McLafferty was on the committee to select
a pastor when he resigned the pastorate, and
that he opposed calling Rev. Banks the present
pastor, and that Banks, though invited to do so,
never attended the meetings of the Ministerial
Alliance, of which McIaiferty is president The
attempt TO withdraw the hand of fellowship
fpom McI.afferty by Banks church resulted in
McLafferty demanding and securing retraetion,
and then demanding and securing an honorable
dismissal as a member of the church.
ltwas thought that the matter there ended,
but tonight Rev. Squires, pastor of one of the
four Baptist churches here, comes out in an
open letter declaring that ne cannot comply
with the Alliances request TO announce union
services from the pulpit as the Baptists are
not represented, and calling the attention of
Baptists to the fact that the Baptsts have an or

the Liberty of the People.

HALIFAX, n. s., Jan. 3.-Advices from New
foundland indicate that the excitement and in
dignation over EDgland's renewal of the modus
vivendi with France are still rife. This action
is received as blow to the liberty of the people.
Crowds have assembled and condemned in the
strongest terms this act OF the home govern
ment. Some have suggested that the flag be
pulled down. and appeal be made 10 the
United States for protection.
A dispatch from Placentia says Thursday s
Public Netrs announced the deplorable fact
that the infamous modus vivepdi had been
agreed upon between France and England
for another year. The telegraph office
was beseiged by an anxious and indig-
nant public to ascertain if the report was true.
Crowds assembled near the postoffice and in the
strongest terms condemned this treachery. The
governor will be urged TO call a meeting OF the
legislature and condemn in the strongest terms
the cowardice of Premier Whiteway in consent
ing TO the renewal OF the modus yivendi.
