Some Will Complications.

The y.ll of the late John H. Steward,
dated May 4, 1874, was filed yesterday. 1t
provides that the then wife of the testator
shall be sole beneficiary and executrix. Mr..
Steward however, survived his wife, dying
on the lth of last month, and, it being be-
reved that he died intestate, letters of ad-
rnnistration were six days later granted to
Leonard W. Steward, James ii. Forsyth and
Charles C. Hessler. upon bond of $1,000
each Mrs. Steward died intestate March s.
1899, and on the 1st of the following Sep
tember letters of administration were
granted to Jannet Cotton, ~ SISTER. upon
bond of $1,000.
The fling of Mr.. Stewards will yester-
day raises the question of whether the in

THEY did not do a thing more to the
Hopkins gang in Chicago than simply
sweep it off the face of the earth. This
was expected to be the case as the
work of the bogus reformer Hopkins,
who obtained his election two years ago
by fraud, was so out of keeping with
the promises made, that even those
dullest of comprehension could not help
but see it. Swift goes in by about 10, :
900 majority, an endorsement so mag
nifcent that it cannot help but be graft
flying and in a measure recompense
him for the loss of both the honor and
the office ont of which he was so dis

bezzler, having taken from the North
western National bank, of Chicago,

will serve time after trial for his crime,
if remorse for his act does not work out
release by death. Grifin's crime was
the result of gambling on the board OF
trade, and stocks market. He is a
young man, was implicitly trusted, and
has a good wife and two beautiful chill
dren aged respectively five and six

Probably one of the most read books
in Kenosha just now is Coins Finan-

dence regarding it.
Lyman J. Gage, President First
National Bank, Chicago, Ill.-Dear
Sir: Coins Financial School is circulat-
ing quite extensively in this county and
the realistic and matter of fact style in
which it is written has led many to be-
lieye-
That the smart young financier Coin
actually exists.
That he actually gave the public lee
lures represented in the book.
That the prominent public men
whose names are given actually APP
peared at the lectures, questioned by
Mr. Coin, and were either converted or
silenced by him.
As your name IS among the most
prominent of the questioners, | think
you will agree with me that the tend
ency of the book is damaging to your
self as we'll as to the public, and for the
benefit Of those who are ready to be-
lieve any story fit only looks plausible,
the fictitious character of the book
ought to be shown up by those whose
names have been used without author
ity.
Hoping that you will reply to this
note and give me the privilege of pub
fishing your reply in our local papers,
so that Mr.. Coin may make no more
converts here through false pretenses,
[ remain yours respectfully, X"

CHICAGO, March Ii, l895.-Dear
Sir: In reply to your inquiry of March

nancial School," have to say that the
Mthor is q young man to local fame

n the book never took place. The
nen named in the book and quoted as

fact, they could not be for there were
no lectures given. 1t is an ingenious
invention, and has imposed on very
many people, especially in the west.
