The Sensational Burt VIII Case stnl Co

SAN BERNARDNo, March 16-For the
last year or two orange growers have
discussed the practicability of shipping
oranges in bulk. This practice is said
to prevail to some extent among Florida
orange growers.
Levi Smith OF Highlands is now load
ing q car with oranges in bulk for chip
ment to Denver, the first car OF oranges
ever 80 shipped from this region. 1t is
expected to make saving of from $50 to
$40 per car by 80 shipping them. A to-

lent quality.

This is the eleventh day of the trial oil
the Burt will case. The day was con-
sumed in hearing medical experts as to

fact was drawn from DR.. s. G. Huff, who
is not only a physician in excellent
standing but man of high character.
He testified substantially that he had
noticed Burt come months prior to his
death and had known him for several
years. From what he had observed, ne
diagnosed that Burt was suffering from
the disease known as chronic alcohol
ism. He agreed with the other physi.
clans upon the hypothetical question
propounded aud the facts given therein,
that man suffering from such disease
ami with such symptoms was of unsound
mind when he made his will, on the 9th
day of November, 1898.
