End of a Famous Law Case.

RICHMOND, Va, June IA special
from Wytheville, Vs., says: The famous
Bette Thomas-L,ewis case was decided
in the court of appeals, Judge Leake's
decision in favor of the defendant

scented. The opinion was delivered by
Judge Fauntleroy and was fully con-
CURED in by three of the other judges.
The estate is valued at $225 600, and it
is said that Bette Lewis will receive
about 800, 900 as her share after the ex-
penses of the trial have been paid. Each
of the lawyers will receive SIC, 900, with
the exception of Mr.. Edgar Allen,
whose portion, it is said, will be $50, 900.
Nearly $3.50, 900 goes to the heirs at law.
Bette Lewis is mulatto, and is the il
legitimate daughter of William l..
Thomas, who was a well known resident
of Richmond. The case has been in the
courts since the spring of 1890, and has
attracted great interest throughout the
entire country.

HARR1sBuRs June 1.-THE hearing
In the case Of ex-senator James 8. Rutan
against ex-State Treasurer Boyer, based
on charges that the latter while state
treasurer took interest on state money
deposited in western banks, was set for
yestsrdny before Alderman Maurer.
Promptly at that hour Mr.. Boyer APP
peared with his counsel, Lyman D. Gill
bert, Esq, and in short time ex-Sena-
tor Herr, counsel for Mr.. Rutan, put in
an appearance.
Mr.. Gilbert announced that Mr..
Boyer was anxious to have hearing,
when Mr.. Herr made brief statement
to the effect that the commonwealth
was not ready to proceed, owing to the
fact that Mr.. Rutan is critically ill, and
there is great apprehension that he may
die at any time. If he should recover,
his physician is unable to say when he
can attend to business.
1t was developed that the counsel for
the commonwealth was not anxious to
insist on the prosecution of the case, and
Alderman Maurer declared the case
dismissed
