The Lick Estate Settled.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 5.-Within a
few weeks the board of trustees who have
managed the Lick estate since the decease
of the pioneer will ask the Superior Court
to approve their accounts and discharge
them from further duty. The board has
handled millions of dollars left by the
pioneer and now that all requests have
been settled they wish to be absolved from
further duty. James Lick left almost all
his money for educational purposes. The
Lick observatory ard the Lick School of
Mechanical Arts being the two most i'm
portant requests When the claim of
James LickS SOM was compromised for
$685., GOO, in 1878, the trustees estimated that
the estate would fail to carry out all the
legacies by $500 900. Accumulated interest
and increase of values during so many
years has improved money for every be-
bequest and left a surplus of over 81, 900 600.
