SUIT INVOLVING S1,5OO,OOO.
Senator Squire to Be Asked to Account
for Valuable Real Estate.

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, Oct. IA local
paper says that in a few days papers will
be filed in a lawsuit which will involve
the title to real estate valued at nearly
a,5OoOOO and will call upon United States
Senator Squire, of Washington, for an ac-
counting of property intrusted to him. The
plaintiffs are Col. Wm. S. King of this
city, Phil c. Remingtons famous antago-
mist, in the suit of years ago, and Phil o.
Osgood and John Goodwin, of Ilion, III.
A quarter of century ago King and REM
ington were close friends. Years ago they
invested heavily in Western real estate
one of the deals being the purchase of a
large amount of property where now stands
Seattle. When the financial crash came
this property was given 10 Remington TO
hold in trust. Subsequently Remington who
died a few years ago, intrusted the prop
erty to his son-in-law, Squire, who is the de-
fendant named Squire, according to the
complainants, has never made an account
ing of the old trust. The property, then
worth a few hundreds OF dollars, is now
worth millions. Part of it has been sold
and none of the money, according to the
plaintiffs, has reached the copaTtners in the
original syndicate. Even the unsold portion
which, it is alleged Squire still holds, COM
prises a number of choice locations in the
heart of Seattle. These properties alone
are conservatively estimated to be worth
from 81, 900 to N,500,00O.

A WEALTHY HERMIT'S HEIR.
Frank Trombley, of Terre Haute, En-
titled to Charles Chauyin's Estate.

TERRE HAUTE, Ind, Oct. Alt is es-
tablished beyond doubt that Frank
Trombley, who lives on houseboat at the
foot of Walnut street in this city, is a
nephew of Charles Chauvin, the wealthy
hermit, who was murdered at Crosse
Pointe, Hog island, near Detroit, a short
time ago. Trombley gives an account of
his family, and there is little doubt that
his statements are correct. He says that
his mother was a sister of the murdered
man, and was. In fact, owner of half of
the estate. About 1880 Louisa Chauvin,
sister of Charles Chauvin, married man
named Trombley. Mrs. Trombley and
Chauvin, from the date of this marriage
united their fortunes, Chauvin holding the
property In trust. Three sons were born
to the Trombleys-F'rancis B., Richard and
Alexander Trombley, who died in 1860
There were two daughters-Louise WileS
now living here, and Harriet. who is with
her mother at Bay City, Mich. After the
death OF the father the boys lived with the
uncle until falling out occurred, when
Tly 1ney LEFT hi him Frank enlisted in the
the war became a sailor. About eighteen
years ago he came with his brother Alex
ander to Terre Haute. Alexander died in
this city. Owing to some trouble Frank
relatives. and they. of course. thought him
dead. Trombley asserts that the man who
claims to be William i. Trombley, and so
sold the right of heirship to half the es-
Sietz, the man who claims to have pur-
chased the right, are perhaps the murder
ers. When seen tonight Trombley said
his mother, a sister to the murdered her
mIit IS living at Bay City, Mich, and that
he will have no trouble in establishing his
heirship

TRIBUTES TO DIR. HOLMES.
Rev. Drs. Macarthur and Collyer on the
Character of the Great Poet.

NEW YORK, Oct. IA sermon on the
life and character of Oliver Wendell
Holmes was preached tonight by the Rev.
DR.. Robert S. Macarthur at the Calvary
Baptist Church. He said, in part: "Never
there a more beautiful death than that
of Oliver Wendell Holmes. He passed
from earth TO heaven as beautifully the
sun sets in an October day. Never was
there writer in America or Great Britain
more honored or beloved. Sydney Smith
sneeringly asked: Who reads an Amer
lean book? While he was asking this
question half dozen Americans were pre-
pairing to write books which all the world
should know Among these men were Haw
thorne Longfellow, Emerson, Lowell and
Whittier. Holmes was the center of this
brilliant galaxy. There was no writer in
the group who reached so lofty a position
as Tennyson and Browning but the aver
age attained by American writers during
the period is higher than that reached by
British writers Of the same time. Ones
heart grows sad he thinks that the last
OF this group has gone. There was never
before such an American school, and, in
the nature of the case, there can never be
SUCH another American school. Not until
We have some great political upheaval of

BEET SUGAR WHISKY.
Successful Experiments i'm It's Manu.
facture Made at Omaha.

OMAHA. Neb., Oct. 1.-THE Columbia
Distilling Company. the strongest enemy of
the Whisky Trust, to-day made public the
results of an experiment yesterday, by
which it produces a very fair quality of
spirits from sugar beet molasses. The re-
suit of the dstillation is more important
from the fact that it will afford additional
profit to the sugar manufacturers and
cheaper the manufacture OF whisky. The
initiatory step in the manufacture OF beet
sugar whisky was taken several days ago.
when the first car of the molasseS was Sc
cured and the contents drawn off into the
immense vat in which the alkali that has
been gathered from the soil in which the
beets have grown is neutraliZed To the raw
molasses is added about 10 per cent. of
malt and yeast and quantity of the chem
ical preparation which is depended on To
convert the salts. Ii is left in the vat for a
short time, until the akah is transformed,
when the process of fermentation begins,
and ii is then pumped into one of the large
fermenting vats where il lies for not more
than seventy-two hours, until the process
of fermentation is complete The process
was never tried before in this country,
though il has been used in Europe. The
trust people claim IL is not cheaper than
the old process and is OF little consequence.

THE GIBBS MURDER.
Mystery of Crime ut Buffalo Prob
nbIy Solved.

CLEVELAND, o., Oct. 1.-THE police of
this city believe that the murderer of
Montgomery Gibbs, of Buffalo, has been
run down at last. The woman, Sadie Rob-
inson, who was taken to Buffalo last night,
after confessing that it was she who killed
Gibbs, is believed to have told the truth,
in part, at least. IIer husband is in Jail
here, charged with burglary and a cousin
of hers, named Bert Snyder is also under
arrest on the same charge. A detective
said to-day that Snyder had made state
ment to the police which threw a flood of
light on the Gibbs murder. Snyder said
that Robinson had confessed the murder
to him. According to the story, Robinson
and his wife arrived in Buffalo early last
spring. They were penniless, and decided
to commit a robbery to get money. The
woman donned mems clothing, and she and
her husband went to a lonely place on
Delaware avenue to wait for victim.
Gibbs was the first well-dressed man who
happened along. He was told 10 throw up
his hands. and when he resisted Robinson
shot him. The couple then fed, and the
next morning they came to Cleveland A
dispatch from Buffalo says that Assistant
Chief of Police CuSack, Of that city, start
ed for Cleveland tonight, and it is be-
lieved that lie will make a demand for
Robinson on the strength of Snyder's story,
which may nave been corroborated by the
woman, who is closely guarded in the Buff
falO city prison.
