THE YEsLER ESTATE.
State Supreme Court Decides In Favor
of Mr.. Yesler.


of MT. Ycsler.
OLYMPIA, June Especial THE SUI
preme court today rendered decision in
the case of Henry L. Yesler, ct
al, appellants, VS.. Lucinda ID. Hoch
stettler, respondent, ordering that
the Judgment be materially modi-
fed in favor of Yesler. The appeal
was from decree of the superior court of
King county, reversing decree OF the
former probate court of that county, dis
tributing the estate of Sarah b. Yesler,
deceased. late wife of the appellant. The
probate court found all the property in
controversy to have been the COM
munity property Of the husband and
wife, and gave it to the husband. The
superior court reversed the finding
and held all the property to have been
the separate property of his wife, and dis
tributed one-half of it to the husband and
the other half to the brothers and sisters.
The supreme court discusses at length the
community property law in its bearings
on the controversy, and remands the case
to the superior court, with instructions to
set aside the decree appealed from and en-
ter a new decree, distributing what are
known as the donation lands, the Wilson
farm and the real estate described in a
power of attorney given to Manville 8.
Booth, to all the parties. but giving all
the remainder of tho property to Mr.. Yes
Ter as the community property of himself

Fires in California.

STOCKTON, CAL, June 3.-The county
hospital, a three-story wooden building,
located a mile from the center of the city,
was burned to the ground today, and
but little of its contents saved.
There were 140 patients in the building
and all were rescued. The fire originated
in the range in the kitchen, and with a
high wind quickly communicated to the
main building. The loss is $4,000; in
surance, $4,000.
SANTA Rosa, CAL, June 3.-The ruins
of Lay, Clark e. Co.'s large winery,
which was destroyed by fire last
night, are still smoking. The winery
was one of the largest in the state,
having a capacity Of over 1,5OO, 600
gallons. It was 14Ox123 feet, three and
four stories high, and contained 100000
gallons Of wine and brandy, much of it
eight and ten years old, which was de-
stroyed. The loss is estimated at $3.50, 900;
insurance, $4,000. Wine and brandy
flowed like rivers from the building, and
the latter was clothed in dancing blue
flames as it flowed over the ground. The
winery was on the ranch of the famous
Thomas Lake Harris, who at present is in
the East with his wife. The cause of the
fire is unknown.

LONDON, June 3.-The last session OF the
present parliament virtually closed today.
The desire of the section of the cabinet
supported by the Unionist party to pass
the Irish local government bill IN order TO
go before the country with Irish pledges
redeemed failed to prevail against electoral
exigencies. The queen will return to
Windsor June %, in order to avoid the ne
cessity of the ministers travelling through
Scotland to tender their designations. The
formalities of the dissolution OF parlla-
ment are certain to occur befor June %.
The date of the opening Of Giadstone's
Midlothian campaign is not fixed. de

burgh, at West Calder and at Dalkeith.
The Liberal election funds have already
been swollen by large contributions, and
have received an unexpected accession by
a direct contribution from Andrew Car
negie.
The whole fifty-five McCarthyite men,
bers will seek reelection, and all the Par
nell seats will be contested by the Nc
Carthyites. The amount of the American
donations to the election fund will largely
determine the fate of the Parneliites.
General Collins and T. P. O'Connor have
gone to Dublin to endeavor to promote
reconciliation between the two Irish fac
tons, but with little prospect OF success.
General Collins, having failed in his
efforts to bring about reconciliation be-
tween the Irish factions. will return to
America probably on Sunday.

Editors Unable to Cross the Cascade
Nominating I'm Their Special Car.

mountains In Tnetr Special Car.
TACOMA, June Especial. IA party of
twenty of the National Editorial Associa-
ton members, including President Byron
J. Price, were compelled to remain over
here today. because the Northern Pacific
railroad refused to haul the party's car
Westerley over the Cascade division, owing
to the fact that the car has cast-iron
wheels. The Northern Pacific has adhered
tcnaciously to the rule prohibiting the
hauling of cars having cast-iron wheels
over the Cascades, because Of the increased
danger of such wheels breaking. Paper
or steel wheels will answer, but cast-iron
wheels will not be hauled.
Accordingly the editors became the
guests Of the Commercial Club, pending
arrangements to secure another car in
which they could be taken over the
mountains. while the Westerley goes
home via Portland. Much argument was
necessary to convince the editors that the
company was not bound to haul their car
over the Cascades, inasmuch rs it had
hauled it to the Sound from Portland.
LATER.-It was finally found impossible
to get another car, and the Westerley was
attached as the last car to the overland
train. Superintendent McCabe says the
continued application of air brakes in
crossing the mountain grades is apt to
heat cast-iron wheels and cause them to
break

1t Will Include Buffalo Herd and
an Indian Village.

KALIspELL, Mont, June 5.-[Special l.
While all nations of the world and every
state in the union will contribute to the
Worlds fair yet none of the exhibits will
possess any more interest than that to be
furnished by the Flathead country. 1t
will surely attract the attention of our
foreign visitors and those Americans who
have never been west of the Mississippi.
A company is being formed with Frank
r. Miles, of this city, at Its head for the
purpose of arranging an exhibit that is
typical of the West, and one that cannot
easily be duplicated. 1t will require a
capital of nearly $25o,OOO to successfully
put Mr.. Miles ideas into execution, but
the money is forthcoming.
The herd of buffalo owned by Charles
Allard, a half-bresd living on the Flat
head reservation, has been secured by Mr..
Miles to compose a part of the exhibit.
This is the largest herd of buffalo now in
existence. There are few in Yellow stone
National Park, and small herd at Garden
City, Kan. In addition to this herd.
Mr.. Miles will secure about twelve
or fifteen lodges of Indians, in
