The Changes in the Wilson Bill.

tTOn Inc New Ork TlmeS IDeml.
The slight changes made in the Wilson bill
yesterday by the committee appear to have
cen suggested in some instances by con
Vicuon that the duty on finished product
should exceed the duty on the raw material
OF that product For example. the first COPY
Of the bill placed duty of / cent pound on
pig lead and the same duty on lead man
ufactlred into sheets pipes, shot and wire
The duty on these finished produces Is now
increased to "a cents a pound. The differ.
ence between the two duties under the pres
ent law is one-hah of a cent. The changes in
the carpet schedule seem to have been caused
by evidence that in the original classification
there was an unjust discrimination against
the manufacturers of the cheaper grades

The South Carolina Senate in passing

Can it be that Gov. Tillman is catering to
the small beer vote? If he wants to do
the thing right, he should, by all means
make provision for free lunch at least
twice week. This magnanimity on the
part Of the state would not go unappre-

Wednesday he proposed to demonstrate

stuck lighted match to the feathers.
But for the heroic efforts Of some of the

Bishop Coke now charges Mgr Satoli
with being the agent of the Society of
Jesuits, which he says rules the Vatican.
and which he characterizes as the most
formidable political machine that ever
disturbed the peace of nations" He
writes, he says, as an American citizen to
a political emissary, the instrument of
Jesuitism, and says he has no quarrel
with Mgr. SatolH, but aims to unmask
his masters. 1t is evident that Mgr. Sa-
tolli's mission has not impressed the
bishop very favorably.

1t will probably strike Savannah
business men as peculiar that a whisky
agent for the state of South Carolina is
upon the detective force Of this city. and
still more peculiar that he has been
backed up by the police force in his
espionage of persons and boats engaged
in interstate commerce between this city
and South Carolina. The selling and
shipment of whisky by individuals and
corporations in the state of Georgia is
perfectly Legitimate, whatever may be the
law on the subject in South Carolina.
Savannah merchants are not subject to
the South Carolina whisky laws in Geor-
gia territory, nor are the Savannah boat
men.

HE OUGHT TO BE REMOVED.

The case rested here and Judge Brad ley decided that the court would not dis miss the motion to dismiss the case. MT Davenport then requested that the judge act. He said that he represented all of the legatees of the estate and they were anxious for settlement that the boun- ties might commence. He pointed out the facts of the age and the need of the money by many of them and thought the estate should be settled as far

NIT Davenport remarked that the records he considered conclusive proof and proof enough. MT Beecher pointed out the fact that the records disclosed more than the fact that MT Peck was removed, and that was, that he had appealed. After another exchange of legal compliments, MT Beecher summarized the case, going over some of the ground already covered. He pointed out the facts that the petition alleged that MT Peck was removed from the executorship because he was wholly unfit to act, and wasted the estate in his charge.

went on to say that he did not mean any
 disrespect to this court nor could it be so construed, but as Judge Bradley knew about the case and the opinions of the townspeople, he should decline to listen to this case upon it's merits, and as he had suggested before, call in judge of an adjoining district. He referred to the statute relating to judge who had in- terest in the case, might refuse to act, and said that Judge Bradley, injustice to himself, could do no different in this case, than when he removed MT Peck from the executorship, without stultifying himself

BY LAWYER DAVENPORT reading the petition, which was as fol lows:
 | To the Honorable Court Of Probate for the District of Newtown The petition of John | W. Booth of the town ot Hartford respectful | ly represents:
 l. That Elon Booth, late of said Newtown, | died on the 24th day of March, 1890, leaving a ! last will which was duly admitted to probate, 1 and his estate is now pending in this court for | settlement.
 2 The petitioner is an heir-at-law of the said Elon Booth ,and one of the beneficiaries of the l trust created in said will of the remainder ot | the estate.
 3. Charles H. Peck of said Newtown was | named executor of said will and also as the | trustee of the remainder Of said estate for the period of fourteen years from the settlement | of said estate.
 l f. The said Charles H. Peck duly qualified as such executor, and took upon himself the proper settlement of said estate.
 5. The said Charles II. Peck, while acting as such executor. grossly mismanaged and vast ed said estate in his hands as executor, and became and was wholly incompetent to have the care and management of the same. 6. On the Ist day of pril, 1893, the Court O l Probate for the District of Newtown removed | the said Peck from his position as such exec | utor on account of said mismanagement waste and ndincompetency,a ,and appointed Smitl P. Glover ot said Newtown administrator d, | bonis non with the will annexed of said estate | '. The said Peck is largely indebted to sai' estate on account of his said mismanagemen l and waste.
 8. The said-Peck did not render any accoun to said Court of Probate of his doings sue executor while he acted as such executor.
 9. The said Peck is wholly unfit to have tn charge and management of said estate as sue
 trustee, and by his conduct as such execute
 has disqualified himself from acting as sue
 trustee and is incapable ot executing sai
 trust snd dischargIng the duties thereof.
 Wherefore the said John W. Booth prays tn
 court for an order removing the said Charle | H. Peck trustee as aforesaid.

 Lawyer Beecher, in opening the pr'

 called upon to do something that he fe delicate about doing, but which had r peatedly been done in other courts, an
 that was to call in judge from an al
 joining district to act in this case.

whether he should take it upon himself to act in this case. MT Davenport asked if he claimed that the judge was disqual- flied to act in this case, to which Mir Beecher replied that he did. MT Daven- port said he knew of no interest that should disqualify the judge; he was not related or had any pecuniary interests and moved that MT Beecher's motion be overruled.

 moved that the petition be dismissed

NO SUCH POSITION AS TRUSTEE.

NO SUCH POSITION AS TRUSTEE. MT Peck was removed as executor and Smith P. Glover was appointed in his place, de bonis non, with the will annex ed, and how could MT Peck be removed from the trusteeship when he had never been trustee or acted in that capacity. In reply Mir Davenport said that MT Peck was named as trustee in the will, had g legal standing as trustee and as trustee had acted in the estate as he ought to- The supreme court said he was removed as executor but

for his removal from other positions of trust. MT Davenport in his turn said the same man was named as eXecutor and trustee of an estate. Can he so misuse the funds as executor, that he can still be fit man as trustee? He said he did not wish to be offensive, but if a man had proved unfaithful to the trust as execu- tor and wasted the estate, he could not see how the court of probate would be justifiable in passing the funds into his hands as trustee. Even were he execu- tor now and the records stood as they now stand, he thought

Labor Saving on the Farm.

One of the latest and neatest appli-
ances for saving rural bone and muscle
is little two horsepower vapor engine.
The vapor is generated by means Of an
electrical attachment not at all comph-
Gated in its arrangement The engine
Is so simple in construction that the girls
and women of q family can, say, sepa-
rate the cream from the milk of % or 80
COWS and churn the same number Of
pounds of butter in hess than an hour.
The engine can be used for many other
purposes than as an assistant to the
dairy. For that indeed it Is invaluable,
since in the vicinity of cities and large
towns dairy farming and butter making
are rapidly assuming in America the i'm
portance that they have already done in
Denmark and Switzerland.
But the little gas engine will meet
many other needs. 1t will saw wood,
cut fodder and ensilage and make cider.
Tho agriculturist can build a water
tank in his garnet, and the small en-
CINE will in few minutes pump it full
of water. The water has only to be
conducted in pipes over the house, and
thus the farmer will have one of the
main conveniences of city life, plenty OF
water. Not only that, but the obedient
slave will pump the water tanks in the
barn and stables full also, and live stock
can receive their drink without any trou-
BILE or loss of time and little labor.
