Contested VIII Case.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, March "a
The will of the late Senator jos. E.
Mcdonald is q prominent subject of
interest here today, by reason of the
complaint of the contestants, the son
and grandchildren of the deceased,
who aIlege forgery aud mutilation of
the will by Mrs. Mcdonald, but none
OF her friends believe it. This charge
is of a nature that seems TO preclude
the possibility OF any friendly settle-
ment ofthe suit, and the indications
now are that there will be long and
bitter fight and expensive litigation.

daughter of Millionaire Lucky Bald
win, had eloped with her cousin and
married him on tug just outside the

wife. Greepwalt is both justice of
the peace and school director. The
''scnool marin" boarded at his house,
and in bad weather he has often con-
veyed her home in his buggy.
A few days ago q neighborhood wag
suggested to MIS-. Greenwals that the
old man had been paying too much
attention to the school marm. There
was an unusually violent 'scrap," in
which Greenwalt was badly worsted.
Next day Greenwalt, in his capacity
as justice of the peace, deputtzed his
hired farm hand, Bill Otto, to arrest
his wife and bring her before him
for trial. After brief examination,
he ordered her to be conveyed TO the
county Jail at Lemars, twenty miles
distant, and confined there pend

was again depuUzed to execute the
order. On the way to Jail Mrs. Green

started back home. She had walked
fifteen miles and was found by the
neighbour in the morning scratched
and bruised and utterly exhausted.

That Great Wood Suit is On.

LONDON, March 24.-All Efforts hav
ing failed to compromise the Wood
suit the case was called in court this
afternoon and the work of empannel-
ling q jury was begun. Even if the
chief living figure in the case were
not q widow of Charles Stuart Par
nell the trial would attract wide
spread attention from its inherent
strapgeuess. Old Mrs. Wood, whose
fortune of 81, 900, 900 is in dispute, was
q weirdly eccentric character, and in
her latest years grew blind, silly and
deaf. She never read newspapers or
any books save the Bible and the
classical poets. Her servants were
compelled to memorize verses from
these aud recite them daily in
her presence. One OF the wit.
nesses wi be a young English
footman, VINO revolted at this. She
drove out once day in her broug ham
with drawn blinds. One OF her ia
vorite occuI ations was to draw wills.
There Is q whole series OF these. The
earliest, made 10 lS47, is filled with
quotations from the Greek Testament
and the poets. In the first of these
she devised her property in an equita
BILE way. Gradually, as her niece,
Kitty, grew up from girlhood, they
show changes increasingly in Der
favor; the last of all, every line OF
which save the feebly scrawled sig
nature, is In Mrs. Parnelps writing,
leaves to the latter everything. The
story or the wonderful sustained fight
she made to keep her brothers and
sisters from getting at their aunt
rivals one of Wilkie Collins plots.
They aver that the most astoDish-
ing devices were resorted to tor this
purpose. The spectacle of OShea IN
the background watching waiting
gives the thing an immenEly dra-
matte touch. Once a rumor OF the
Parnell scandal got to the old lady
who was q Puritan of the staunchest
type. But she was convinced that
it related to one OF her other nieces.
Although Sir Evelyn Wood and elk
brothers and sisters are claimants,
the peculiaritles OF the English law
make the parties proving the Will the
plaintiff. Hence Mrs. Parnell occu-
pies this position, while Sir Evelyn
and five others are defendants, with
another sister, Mrs. Steele, as in
tervener. The charge is lunacy
and under influence. The
counsel i'm the case curiously
reproduce the famous Parnell COM
mission. Sir Charles Russell Is for
the plaintiff, while Attorney General
Webster Is for Woods and Sir Henry
James is for Mrs. Steele. The case
would have been tried before this
had it not been that Mrs. Patnell,
after husbands death, was stricken
with influenza. There Is no doubt
but that the case would have been
settled out of court were it not for
O'Shes, who trading on the desire OF
both sides for a comprOmise, wanted q
large sum for his silence. 1t Is under
stood Il a. if Mrs. Parnell succeeds in
the contest that she will purchase the
Avondale estate, which is now in the
mark ct, and which has been the prop
y o. the Parnell's for generations.

Jessie Dunbar, an Alameda street girl,
and her lover. Harry Mason, were tried
by Justice Owens yesterday afternoon
on Z charge brought against them by
Officer Rinkenbach Of disturbing the
peace several nights since at the Basket
saloon, on Alameda street.
The case, on the officers own state-
ment, 10 q peculiar one. Rinkenbach
was off duty and saw the girl and Mason
60 into the Basket saloon. He went in
also and began to talk with the girl. He
asked her II she was around again, stat
ing to the court that Officer Inns had
warned her to stay away from China
town. where she smoked opium. One
word led to another, and finally the girl
called Rinkenbach liar, when he put
her under arrest. Mason then came in
and said no man should lay his hand on
his woman" when Rinkenbach put
him under arrest. After the arrest the
woman became very noisy and swore at
the officer in anything but choice terms.
She admitted all this on the stand, and
from her own testimony the court was
compelled to find her guilty, fning her
$40. Mason was discharged.

CALIFORNIA FRUITS.
Points About the Market for Them IN
EnGlond.

Points About the Market for Them IN
England.
Mr.. Goodsell, . London dealer in Cal
ifornia fruits, in . letter sent to the
HERALD, yesterday, among other mat
ters refers 90 follows to California fruits
in England:
For the guidance Of our friends we
beg to say that the kinds of fruit which
are principally in demand are the fol-
lowing: Apricots, pears and apples
(both in rings and whole.)
Silver prunes (unpitted) have also
been in good demand, and during last
season a fair quantity was sold at from
65e to 70s per cwt., although this
fruit is not likely to command the atten-
tion which apricots, apples and pears
are likely to receive.
Silver plums and peaches are almost
unsalesble, and we do not recommend
any shipments of these kinds, while
nectarines only command q small sale.
Packages-We have been requested
by several OF our friends to give our
opinion az to the size OF package most
suitable, and we have no hesitation in
saying that boxes Of 25ib net, as snowy
as possible, are liked better than any
thing else. A little expense in getting
up these boxes, giving them Q taking
and snowy appearance, will, we feel
sure, be recompensed in the proportion
ately better price they are likely to OBJ
tain. Apples may be packed in boxes
OF 50ib net, and perhaps this is the
most suitable package for this fruit.
Dried fruit in bags or sacks ID almost
unsaleable, and we strogly recommend
our friends to ship nothing in such
package for this market.
We find that good deal Of doubt ex.
ists in the minds of some shippers of
California fruits as to the duty to which
they are subject in England, and we
take this opportunity Of pointing out
that apples, pears, peaches and nectar
ines are quite free and pay no duty
whatever on entering this country. On
the other hand, apricots, prunes and
plums are liable to duty at the rate Of
70 per hundred weight.
