TEE proposed consolidation Of the
several iron mills in the city is very
remarkable msve; and no less remarka-
bic than necessary, probably; seeing
that separately they are making no
money for their stockholders, and col
lectively there is a reasonable assurance
thar they will. Reduction of running
expenses, to level up with powerful
competitors, greater harmony Of inter
est, and a better command Of and con-
troll over the markets and freights are
the essential reasons for the step.

ton of trespass, was on trial A verdict for
plaintiff was rendered for S1.O0.
In the case of AlexiuS 4. Wells VS.. David

The next case taken up WAS that OF Grace
Scrivner ct al. VS.. Charles 7. Reitsnider.
Brooks and Mckellip & Clabaugh for cavea-
tors; Reifsnider & Reifsnider and Bond for
caveatee. The case is on issues from the Or
phans' Court, and is a suit to set aside the
will of the late Elijah Scrivnor, of Freedom
district, on the plea that he was mentally I'M
fitted to make n will at the time it was exc
cuted. The will leaves his entire estate in
trust to Charles T. Reifsnider, an attorney of
Westminster, who is appointed his executor
and trustee, and directs that the estate be
converted into money as soon as possible at
ter the death of Mr. Scrivnor, one-half to be
held in trust for his wife, Elvira, and one.
half in trust for his daughter and only child,
Grace In the event of Mrs. Scrivnor marry
ing again she will receive only one-third OF
the estate, which will be paid her at the time
of her marriage Miss Grace would, in that
case, receive two-thirds instead Of one half OF
the entire estate. The executor is directed
to hold the share of Miss Grace until she is
twenty five years old unless he sees proper
to pay her portion of it in the meantime, as
to which he will use his own discretion, but
cannot exceed one half The case is still on
trial
