SCIENTISTS.
Broken Up,
Cause of a Child's Death to
Be Investigated.
Reported That the Little One Lacked
Proper Treatment
Futile Efforts of Several "Healers" to
Benefit the Sufferer.

NEW HAVEN, Sept. 26.-Coroner Mix is
determined TO break up a congregation
of Chr istian Scientists that is fiouI ishlng
in this city and in West Haven, II he
finds that the suspicious entertained as
10 the cause of a child's death yesterday
are verified. A particularly numerous
band OF the sect is in in West Haven and
from that locality during the past two
years, a large number OF deaths have
been reported among children who were
not attended by regular physicians.
Not until the present case, however, was
there chance ID prove neglect, SO no
prosecutions were brought. Yesterday
the infant child of George Adam, son OF
George W. Adams, prominent attorney
of this city, died in West Haven, and
Medical Examiner Barnett reported today
TO Coroner Mix that the child died from
lack of proper treatment.
From the investigation by the coroner,
so far made, II is learned that the child
was 10 weeks old and had been weaned
four weeks ago, since when il was fed on
a solution Of condensed milk and water.
The cihdl did not thrive under this re-
gime and when il became i'll, the parents,
both OF whom are Christian Scientists,
called In Mrs. Nathan Hale, local
"haeler," OF the Christian Science Cult,
to attend 1t. Mrs. Hale's efforts proved
furtile, and she summoned IL. L.. Perry,a
decorator of this city, who is also
"besler," In consultation. Perry gave
the treatment but the child still dropped,
so a summons was sent to Mrs. Jeanette
j. Coleman of BostonN, Mass, who has
a great reputation among hre followers
for her ability as a "healer." Mrs. Cole
man did not come here but she admins
tered what is known as the "absent
treatment. Coroner Mix has summon
ed the parents of the child and the two
local "healers" to the inquest, which will
be held tomorrow.

cated.to render: .:impossible.t the. .legalzation

fact that this new alleged will has been
presented in court by Attorney Lloyd
would indicate that Charlie Fair and his
sisters have joined forces to contest the
will of their father.
The attorneys who represent the
executors under the will previously
fled, and of which the original copy
was stolen, intimated very strongly that
they believek this latest alleged will to
be forgery. The case was finally con-
tinued to April 2.
The alleged will produced today be-
queaths to various brothers and sisters
of deceased and their children about the
same amounts as was left to them under
the will previously fled. Under the
first will the families of these brothers
and sisters would acquire a large pro-
portion of the estate at the death of
Fairs children, Charles, Virginia and
Mrs. Oelrichs, but under the will filed
today the brothers and sisters, and their
families would receive only the amount
of cash stated in the will and the bal
ladce of the $4,000, 900 estate could be
distributed at once among the three
children of the deceased.

The suit was DIsmissed.

WAsHNGToN, March 1S.-The supreme
court of the United States today dis
missed bill of the state of California
against the Central Pacific Railroad COM
pany, involving possession and control
of the water front of the city of Oakland, !,
for the reason that it was not a case in
which the court had had original juris-
dictlon. The court holds the city of
Oakland and the Oakland waterfront
company not being parties to the suit
the court ought not to proceed in their
absence. But even if they were present
and included within the scope of litiga-
ton, the court could not exercise original
Jurisdiction, and the bill is therefore
dismissed. The effect of this decision is
that the state must renew its litigation
in another tribunal of which the supreme
court of the United States has appellate
Jurisdiction.
Harlan and Brewer dissented. They
held if the supreme court would not ex-
erise its original jurisdiction, in this case
it was difficult to see where it would dc
so.

a woman De- Lxnched.

OMAHA, March 1s.-A special to the
Bee from Butte, Neb., says: Mrs. W.
E. Holton, of Keya, Paha county, was
found dead in her house last night by
neighbors. Her body was lying on the
floor with a piece of rope 10 feet long
and hatchet and hammer beside her.
An autopsy showed that she died of
strangulation and also had been assault
ed. The woman was living alone, her
husband having been sent to an insane
asylum. It is supposed that the motive
,of lynching was to prevent the woman
from giving testimony against cattle
rustlers, as she had been summoned as a
witness. She bore good reputation.
It was evident that she fought hard for
her life and honor, as the bedding and
clothing were torn and scattered around
the room

ANOTHER WILL FOUND
Latest Sensation in the Fair
! Will Case
PRODUCED IN COURT TODAY
Tt Divides the Estate Almost Equally
Between Fairs Son and Two
Daughters--Where 1T Has
Been.

SAN Francisco, March 18.-The con-
tention in the courts over the millions
left by James G. Fair developed another
sensation this morning. When the case
was called before Superior Judge Slack,
a great stir was caused by the introduce
ton of what purports to be a later
Photographic will written in lead pencil
on two sheets of legal cap paper. It
was brought into court securely framed
between two plates of glass by Reuben
Lloyd, who has been retained in the
case by Mrs. Oelrichs and Virginia Fair,
daughters of the deceased. This alleged
will divides the estate almost equally
between the two daughters and Charlie
Fair. 1t bequeaths few thousand dol
lars to certain orphan asylums, and
makes no provisions for such trust as
the estate is left in control of under the
will previously t1led.
Messrs. Angus and Crothers are two
of the four executors named in the
previously filed will. Referring to this
alleged will, Attorney Lloyd informed
the court that the document, according
to it's date, was executed three days
later than the will previously fled He
said he would prove that the existence
of this will had been known to several
persons, and that it had finally been
found in the possession of very estim-
able old lady, whose name Lloyd did not
divulge. Lloyd said the old lady had
not produced it because she had read Of
the other viii being offered for probate.
and had supposed that it was a later
document than the one she held. The

Justice Field read brief statement to
express regret that the controversy be-
tween the state and railroad company,
owing to the limited jurisdiction of the
supreme court of the United States,
could not now be heard and finally de-
termined, for the controversy would
seriously effect the interests of both un-
til it was 30 determined. He expressed
the belief that by proceedings begun in
the state courts and reaching the
supreme court of the United States by
that route the state would speedily find
means of ending the. controversy.
The Dropping ofthe Suit Was Expected,
OAKLAND, CAL, March 2S.-W. R.
Davis, who represented the city of Oak
land in the waterfront suit in Washing
ton, says the dropping of the suit by the
supreme court is an advantage to
neither and is merely what was antici-
pated. During the hearing last Deem
ber the justices gave several plain inti-
nations that they were likely to take
this course. Attorney General Hart
commenced this suit against the advice
of the attorneys for the city, who did
not believe it could lead to any result,
There are now in court three other
water front-suits, two of which are under
submission before Judge McKenna, of
the United States circuit court, and
one before Superior Judge Ogden De-
cisions in these may be expected soon,
and whoever loses will certainly appeal
so that the water suit in a proper form
will get into the United States supreme
court again before great while.
