SAN Francisco, February 1.-THE

DECIDED TO CONTEST.
Long Fight Promised Over the Fair
Millions.

SAN Francisco, February g. The
children of the late James q. Fair have
decided to contest their fathers will.
One of the attorneys for the daughters,
Mrs. Herman Oelrichs and Miss Vir-
ginia Fair, made statements in court to-
day that the probate of the will would
be opposed, and the court allowed a
continuance of two weeks to inaugurate
a contest. Fairs daughters and his son
Charles l.. Fair are acting in concert in
the matter. The fight over the Fair
millions promises to be long and bitter.
All the leading law firms in the city are
being drawn into the contest on one side
or the other, Governor Budd being one
of Charles Fairs special counsel. The
executors specially desired to secure the
probating of the will before the contest,
SO that they could make the fight out of
the funds OF the estate, instead OF per-
sonally advancing the costs of the battle.

II. Faure IL a Moderate Republican and a
Free Trader.

Tho French democracy Is fond of medi-
ocritic," is tho explanation given by his
opponents of the unexpected election Of NJ.
Francois Felix Faurc to the presidency Of
the French republic. 1t appears, however,
that Faure WAS not entirely the choice Of
the democracy of France, as many mon
hrchtsts voted for him, proferring his con
servativo and honest mcdoorty to the
brilliancy a WaldcCk Rousseau and tho
radicalism o. VI Brisson. To America the
chief significance of his election lies in the
fact that President Faure is a free trader,
being a large shipowner and represent
ativo of the great seaport of llavrc.
Like most of the presidential dark horses
we are familiar with in the United States,
Francois Felix Faure is a self made man.
But, unlike most American presidents, he
has been chiefly distinguished as Il man Of
business rather than as politician. He
was born in Paris Jan. 30, 1871, entered n
shipping Office in Havrc in early life and
in tno roso to he ono of tho principal
shipowners in that important port. He

that the heiress has refused more than
one good offer is well known. Miss
Gould is high spirited young woman,
and her resentment of interference with
the course of her affections, based upon
this proviso in the deceased wizard
will, nearly precipitated a family catas-
trophe. The young lady has been con-
cerned enough to ask whether the provl-
sion could stand III a court of law, and 1t
seems it might be declared void under
the decision condenning all nuncupa-
tive conditions even lightly in restraint
of marriage as against public policy.
But all the heartburnings are over, and
by another twelvemOnth New York's re-
porters will be writing up one more great

kept very quiet by the family, George

pect of marriage to come. -Phlladel-
