THE FORBES CONTEST CASE.
The Contestants Close, and Mr.. Forbes
Testifiss.

The Contestants Close, and Mr.. Forbes
Testifiss.
The Charles H. Forbes contest case
was resumed in Judge York's court yes.
terday morning.
The case for the contestants was closed
very shortly by the introduction o.
numerous documents which it waf
claimed have bearing on the points al
issue.
The claim OF Mr.. Forbes children
being that their father should not have
letters Of administration on their
mothers estate on account of improvi-
dence and poor business attachments,
among the papers introduced were the
records in two foreclosure cases OF prop
erty under his management.
The contestants having closed, Mr..
Forbes WAC called to the witness stand.
He stated that he is SO years of age,
and has lived in Los Angeles since 1857.
He said he is the manager of r. S.
Bakers business, which runs into mill
lions. He managed Mrs. Bakers busi-
ness when che Mrs. Stearns, and after
his death, when she married Mr.. Baker,
hs became manager OF all their interests,
and has continued as such ever since.
As an evidence OF his management he
referred to the Laguna rancho, which
wac bringing in an income of $40, 800,
when be suggested putting water upon
1t. This was done, and the income has
increased to $40 200.
He stated that he understands Span
ish and French. Some of his deceased
wife's property is in Lower California,
and should be very valuable. He was
familiar with the adjustment OF land
titles in Mexico.
Referring to the allegations by his son
Augustin that he never took any interest
IN the education Of his children, Mr..
Forbes became very much wrought up
and denied the charge in toto, saying
that he had always arranged for it. His
children, he said, became very ungov-
ernable. He was obliged TO be away
from home on business a great deal and
could not exercise the control they
needed. He gave the details of his send
ing them to school and employment OF
private tutors, and said that if they did
not learn it was their own fault. His
family had been very expensive one,
and he had provided well.
The witness also related the circum-
stances OF the mortgages which had been
referred to, and explained how they came
about.
The direct examination was still in
progress when the court adjourned the
case until Tuesday morning, when Col
II. ). Baker, who is ill, will be examined
In hle rooms in the Baker block.

WEST INDIANAPOLIS BOARD.
The Town Marshal's Case Not Brought
Up as Expected.

The session Of the West Indianapolis Town
Board last night was characterized by the
usual unique manner in which business is
transacted by that body. Clerk Finch, ow-
ing TO the heavy Indebtedness of the town,
had held back his expenses, but as $4,000
had just been realized by the sale of bonds
he presented a modest bill of 50 for ex-
penses incurred while engaged in business
for the town, $3.50 of this amount being
for car fare and $19O for postage. The
board refused TO allow the first amount
but after much discussion, during which
several dollars worth of time was wasted,
allowed the balance of the bill.
n petition was presented and placed on
file asking that water mains be laid on
Hadley avenue from Morris street to Stock
street. Fire alarm boxes were ordered to
be placed at Oliver avenue and Birch
street. and at Norris and KappeS streets.
IT was expected that Trustee Pierson
would bring up the matter of impeaching
Marshall Maholm for, as he claims, living
out of the town corporation. At the last
moment, however Mr.. Persons nerve van
ished and the matter was not brought up.
