THE TOWER ATTACHED,
Why the Tall Iron Structure In
Golden Gate Park Still
Stands.
Creditors Who We're Not Paid Noti-
fled the Commissioners Not to
Take 1t Down.

One of the monuments that remain to
remind visitors of the spot where the Mid
winter Fair was, is the tail structure which
was down on the bills as "Bonet's steel
electric tower" The iron column, with it's
elevator that carried passengers to point
210 feet above the ground, was one of the
concessions. The syndicate that projected
it paid the Midwinter Fair management
5000 before breaking ground for the foun-
dation. The structure was put UPON
credit-but it did not prove a financial
success.
"The time came when the Park Com
missioners thought that the tower ought
to come down, just the same as other
structures that have been removed" said
Commissioner Austin yesterday, ''but they
were served with notice from Sullivan g.
Sullivan, attorneys, to the effect that the
Sheriff had levied an attachment on the
tower, and that if the Commissioners un-
dertook to remove it they would be held
responsible in the amount of the attac b.
ment. l understand that man named
Goodman, who built the foundation, has a
claim for 500, and that Ignatz Steinhart
holds claims against the tower for some
$1,000. The whole thing is not worth more
than old iron.
"Of course" continued Commissioner
Austin, that notice can have no weight
with US, as this is public property and we
have the right to remove any obstruction
from It, but as 1t is not in the way just
now aDd no work is being done in the
grand court it is allowed to remain"
The Commissioner intimated that when
the proper time comes the Commissioners
will find means to have the tower removed.

Stanly to remove Captain Purrington's
name from her will and from the list of
her trustees and substitute the name OF
Harry Merritt. Just little while before
her death, late in December, 1891, she
asked what had been done toward taking
Captain burlington out of her will; that
she wanted him left out.
On the day of Mrs. Garcelons death.
Judge Stanly advised Judge Blake that a
syndicate would be formed to break the
trust, and that he had better notify Bow
doin College to have some one out here to
look out for its interests. Judge Blake
was graduate of Bowdoin and personal
friend of the president, and it was due to
these relations that the firm of Blake. Will
liams & Harrison became the attorneys for
the college.
The litigation is to cost the numerous
heirs nothing. Judge CARRIER, acting for
them, will receive his pay from whatever
amount the court may award as expenses.
To-day the case will be continued. Judge
Hayne will briefly and formally close for
the plaintiffs, and the defense will then re-
sumo its case.

Now Daggett and Pepper are bitter ene-

MRS. GARCELON'S NATURE
Closeted Consultations to Pre-
vent knowledge of Her
Plans.
WAS IT UNDUE INFLUENCE
Judge StanIy's Deposition Ended
Some Light on individuals In
the Case.

The third day of the Garcelon trust con-
test in the United States Circuit Court con-
cluded the reading of Judge Stanly's
deposition as to his relations legally and
as a friend with Mrs. Garcelon during the
formation of the trust in 1891.
In the main, the documentary testimony
of Judge Stanly laid particular stress
upon Mrs. Garcelon's cautiousness in at
tempting to keep the proposed disposition
of her property a secret. The old lady was
the personifcation of secrecy in her prepa-
rations and consultations as to her intended
bequests and the trusts deeds. And it is
this evidence of much private discussion,
often with Judge StahIy alone, that the
defense is expected to make much of in
their claim that undue influence was ex-
erted over Mrs. Garcelon in the matter of
the distribution of her large estate.
Some interesting side lights were thrown
upon the personality of this wealthy wild
owed sister of the late DR.. Merritt and
upon several individuals connected with
this case, to which several score of rela-
tiyes and college on the one hand and
some trustees and syndicate behind the
Merritt nephews on the other hand are
parties.
All day Attorney Philbrook read rapidly
from the document, pausing only occa-
sionally to moisten his throat or to make
note of some discrepancy between his copy
and that upon which Judge Hayne fol-
lowed him carefully for the plaintiffs in the
case, Bowdoin College and the fifty-one
relatives of Mrs. Garcelon.
During his early consultations with Mrs.
Garcelon at her house, Judge Stanly eX-
planned to her the advantages of a deed
over a will in the disposition of the prop
erty as she intended it. He told her that
a deed would remain secure, whereas a
will in which she would dispose of more
than third of her estate to non-relatIves
could be successfully contested by rela-
tives.
He then. at her urgent request, drew up
on November IA, 1890, preliminary deed
of trust providing for q hospital in Oak
land that would be endowed with six
tenths of her property, and Bowdoin Col
lege which would receive four r-tenths, after
she had made provision for relatives. The
amount covered by the trust was set at
81, 1,0O0,0 600.
Judge Stanly had told Mrs Garcelon
very authoritatively that he objected to
drawing up the deed because Judge Ham
ilton was her attorney, but she assured
him that she did not want Judge Hamil-
ton; that he talked too much and that
there was a reporter in his family, and
that she wanted the disposition of her
property kept secret. She added that
had had serious falling out and that she
must have the deed drawn up by some one
who was friend of burlington.
Before the trust could be created the
