 SAN FRANCISCO, March 20-The legal contest over the $40,000, coo left by the late James G. Fair has been the gener- al topic of diecussion here since the pro- ductIon of later alleged wIil in the su perior court yesterday. Today it is ru- mured that still another later will Is in existence. The report is that ten days before his de,th Fair executed still an other photographic will aud entrust+d d It to the keeping of Mrs. Bessie Paxton, sister of the wife of Colonel Warfield, proprietor of the California hotel. The late millionaire and the Warfieids were warm friends. Mrs Paxton has left the city for Los Angeles snd the rumor can not be verified. Rumors of other alleged wills are also heard, and it is hinted !t may be shown that the late mlllIonaire had a mania for executing wills and tes- ! tameuts and entrusting them to the keeping of his lady friends. CONSIDERABLE speculation Is being in- dulged in es to the coming councilman from the second ward vice J. w. Wnal- ley, deceased. There is understood to be no end of willingness to serve on the part of a number of our citizens, but to find favor in the sight of our city fath- CTS IS an obstacle that cannot be sur mounted by all. The mayor and one or two councilmen are absent iron the city, and pending their return no action can be taken.

 PHoENIx, Ariz, Marc5 22-The dying scenes of the legislature were of most extraordinary character. Combinations and trading were the order of the day and the Navajo county division bill, removal of the territorial prison to Pres colt, the appropriation bill and others were freely used as basis on which to trade. About 10 o'clock com bination was made by which the Navajo county bill came up on its passage and was put through both houses. The fight then began in earnest on the prison bill and it waxed hot and hotter but deadlock WAS the result and the 18th legislature expired by limitation and passed into history. The failure to pass the appro- priation bills leaves matters in bad shape for the territory. Most of the | territorial institutions and public off cers will have do without money for the next two years unless the governor calls an extra session of the legislature. The feeling over the failure to pass this bill is intense and all hands are receiving censure from every side. Such scenes as were witnessed during the closing hours have never been equalled during the existence Of the territory. Special to the CITIZEN:
