CHINESE STUPIDITY

Responsible Largely For tho Defeats.
Why tho JapS VIII Win.
SAN FRANcrsco, Dec. TX. P. Lee, q
native Of China, graduate Of Yale, Sec
rotary and interpreter Of the Chinese
minister at Washington during Presi.
dent Cleveland's first administration,
has just returned from his native land.
He SAYS words cannot express tho
laundering and stupidity OF China dur
ing the war which he predicts will not
cease until the Japanese army marches
into Pekin this winter. or al the latest
next spring. By that time, he says,
China will be completely vanouished.
He ascribes China's defeat to the cor
ruption OF the officials, who have stolen
millions Of dollars, and to the fact that
Japanese young men educated abroad
are given positions of trust, whereas
China will not give chance 10 native
youths educated abroad.

NV Yoax, Dec. l7.-Justice Truax,
:. III. supreme court, handed down a
I..i.ion to-day in the Daniel B. Fayer-
-.,tbcr will case. The decision yirtu-
II, upsets all the arrangements that
~. besu mads for the disposition OF
~, H. ,s.idus Of the Fayerweather estate,
~h,.b amounts 10 between 100000
ed s4.OOOOO1. It is tho most important
.o,oIleses Of the country that has ever
been decided.
Faysrwsather left about s6,oOo,oOo.
u, VA, a leather merchant, with no
,.I,,iye,, other than his wife, nearer
m,n uieces. He conceived the idea Of
tanning the vast estate over to institu-
ian, Chiefly colleges. The will was
.SiIs clear in this respect, but there
ss,s sayeral codicils that clouded what
,,rts Of the will were liable to two con-
,,,ac,iops. About S2,500.000 was
r,omptiy disposed OF by payments to
h. institutions specified Immediately
altar Nr. Fayerweather's death.
Thomas 6. Ritch, Justus L. Buckley
,od Henry H. Vaughan, who were
rImsd as executors in the will and
soIicils. also claimed that the residuary
s.taie was willed to them absolutely,
hi vhen a contest over the will got un-
dsr Tsy, these executors admitted that
tbOy were to dispose OF the estate 10
Institutions.
During the progress Of the contest
,bsss executors made the famous deed
al in TO different institutions, in which
,bsy disposed OF the residue absolutely;
Sut they did not follow the list OF insti-
tutlons provided for in the ninth clause
ii he will, to which the Judge now de-
eJe, that the whole residue must go.
By the decision of Justice Truax the
following Institutions will have the
residue divided among them, beside tina
special requests they have already re-
r.iyed under the will: Bowdoin, $780,
90; Dartmouth, 100000; Williams,
100000; Amherst, 100000; Wesleyan
University, 100000; Yale. s3OO.0OO;
Columbia, 100000; Union Theological
Seminary, $4,000; Hamilton, 100000;
University OF Rochester, 500. 900; Cor
hell, 100000; Lafayette, $4,000; Lin
cola. 100000; University Of Virginia,
100000; Hampton University, 100000;
Narysvlile College, 100000; Marietta
College, $4,000; Adelbert College. $780,
90; Wabash College, $4,000, and Park
College, $4,000.
The aggregate Of the requests to these
colleges will necessarily be very large
Nth the residue added, although there
il no provision requiring the executors
to distribute the money in any particu-
lar way.
The deed OF gift gives Yale only $780,.
NO and a share in the residue; IVES.
eysn. Lafayette. Maryyille and Wabash
$4,000 more each. The older institu.
lions, named in the will get nothing
more by the dead of gift, which gives
Harvard 100000 and Princeton 100000,
and each tenth OF the residue, Rut.
gtrs gets 100000; Harvard School for
Women 100000; University OF the City
siNsu York 100000; and Cooper Union
$4,000 The deed also gives Vassar
5000.
