land Stanford and executrix of his es-
tate, was seen the other evening and
asked for her views of the $4,000, 600
claim presented by the Attorney Cen
eral of the United States against the
property now under her charge. She
said: 81 think this is only test case.
OF course, others will be drawn into it.
The burden of the litigation even can
not all be placed on one estate or one
person." Mrs. Stanford was then asked
II she intended TO resist the claim as
presented by the Attorney-General. She
said: "0f course, l shall resist it to
the fullest extent of my ability; but
really there is nothing to say in regard
to the future course shall pursue. Le-
gal teehnicalities will be referred entire
ly to my attorneys" tits believed among
lawyers that the suit OF the government
against the estate will have a serious eff
feet upon the university. Even before
this latest litigation cropped up Mrs.
Stanford had had some difficulty in rais-
ing all the ready money necessary for
the institution. 1t is believed also that
several counties that years ago bought
Central Pacific bonds will be held by the
government responsible for a share OF
the debt now sought to be collected.

Solinsky has been discharged from his
position at San Quentin by Warden Hale.
The charge against him was smuggling
opium to the prisoners who could pay

account OF his position had facilities for
carrying on his underground dispensary
and making lots of money out of it. Just
how long he has been carrying on the
illicit trade no one knows. Suspicion
was first aroused against him by the
large number of packages he received al

1t did not take long to ascertain that
Solinskv was extremely anxious to keep
the contents of these packages secret
from everybody. A watch was set in

and the discovery was made that the
packages were sent from Chinatown
The next step was the certain proof that
the packages contained opium. Solinsky
