WASHINGTON GOSSIP.
A Promotion Which Was Truly De- served by Hard Worked Man.
 Blow at Pools.

WARRINGTON, March 18.-The nomina- tion of John B. Herod, who was today nominated by the president as secretary of legation in Japan, was sent to the senate for the same position February 21 last and Jailed of confirmation. It is understood that there was no objection to his appoint ment from the Indiana delegation but it was simply one of those matters which was overlooked in the rush at the end of the session. MT. Herod has been second sec retary of the legation since January 4, 1894, and since the vacancy in the position of first secretary caused by the promotion of Edwin Dun as minister April last, he has filled the position without the salary, his salary being $18C0 instead of S2625 allowed to the first secretary.
 This legation has had harder work prot- ably than any legation of the United States during the past year, and 1t was deemed a simple matter of justice to promote Mir. Herod, who has rendered very efdcient ser vice.
 Minister Hannis Taylor has cabled the state department a confirmation of the news that that government has resigned, aud that Campos has been appointed cap tain- general at Madrid, and that the new government will probably be under de Cas- tilio.
 The district court of appeals today sus- tained the decision of the lower court in the case of Fred F. Miller and others, hold limits of the Dittrict of Columbia were gambling and therefore prohibited by statute. This practically closes the Ben nings track, but of course does not affect the tracks just across the Potomac in Vir- ginia.

ANOTHER WILL FOUND Dispcsing of the Late Senator
 Fairs Millions
DATED THREE DAYS LATER
Than the One Probated-A Mysterious Woman Pro-
 duces the Document.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 18.-When the Fair will matter cane up before Judge Slack this morning Reuben Lloyd, of the counsel for the children, presented pho- tographic will of the dead ex- senator dated three days later than the one originally filed for probate and which has been stolen. He stated to the court that Fair had given the.wili into the custody oi a highly respected lady, who had just be- come cognizant of the fact that the docu- ment was dated later than the missing one.
 As soon as the will was put on record the attorneys on both sides agreed to have the matter of the probate of the document set for April 2. The attorneys of the executors asked that their petition for the probate of the certified copy of the stolen will be set for the same date. The understanding is document will proceed to attack the au- thenticity of the new one.
 The attorneys for the children were highly elated over the sensation that they created, but none of them would divulge the name of the woman who had had the will in her possession. Mir. Lloyd was asked the name Of the lady who had pro- dnced the will, and replied that he had solemnly promised her not to divuge her name at all.
 The new will differs from the old one in several important particulars. The most important one is in the absence of the trust clause. The estate is disposed of abso- lutely. h the first will Louis c. Bresse, Thomas L. Brothers. James l.. Angus and w. 5. Goodfellow were named as execia- tors. The later will drops Bresse and Goodfellow and substitute Dr. Marc Liv ingston.
 Under the first will Mary Anderson and Margaret J. Brothers, sisters of the de- ceased, were given s25O, each. Under the new will the teslator bequeathes to them 500, ,000 each. The bequest to his broihe was raised from S20, ,000 to S25, ,000 by the new will. Charles l.. Fair receives a special bequest of $500, 900 to be paid be- fore the distribution of tie estate and he shares equally with his sisters in the resi- due. Moreover the bequests to him are ab- solute, so that his heirs can inherit from him.
 The petition for the probate of the new will was signed by 0. L. Fair, Theresa A. Oelrichs, Virgipia Fair, Knight & Haggerty, Lloyd 6 Wood, Garber, Boalt & Bishop and Wilson & Wilson. The chill dren ask for the probate of the document and that letters Of administrations be issued to them. 1.r

AN OLD INSTITUTION

GOES INTO LIQUIDATION FOR THE BENEFIT
 OF ITS CREDITORS.
 KANSAS CITY, Mo-, March 1S.-The Na- tionai Bank of Kansas City failed this morning. The capital of the bank is s1,- 000, GOO. No detailed statement of the con- dition of the bank has been given out. The failure was unexpected and the news of the sus pension created quite a sensation in financial circles.
 The bank is the oldest financial institu- tion in the city, having been established by Messrs. J. H. and w. H. Chick before the war. Until the panic of 1893 1t was ranked as one of the strongest banks in the west. In July 1893 it succumbed to run and temporarily closed it's doors. Although the capital was reduced and the stockhold- CTS paid in 50 per cent assessment in ths reorganization, the institution has never recovered from the blow it received at that time, and it's suspension now Is directly attributable to that suspension. According to the Statement of the bank March deposits were S990 ,659. The fol- lowing notice was posted on the bink door: ITO Depositors: The directors and stockh olders of this bank have decided to discontinue business. All deposits will be paid in full. J. ,. CHICK,
 "PIesident. A second notice read:
 'trhis bank is in the hands of G. W. Gailbraith, comptroller of the currency.' President J. 5. Chick says that the suspension is merely liquidation, and that not depositor will lose cent. The official statement was published March Q. Since then depostors have been drawing out, as they considered the statement very unfavora ble.
 Depositors on Saturday drew out over S60. 900, and the officers saw that if the run continued they would not be able to con- tinue payments today.

Gently. I'm the smallest, the most re-

mountains, near Innsbruck, which is

s'This year I arrived there in the
evening, and was amazed to lind the
streets as brilliantly lighted as Broad

was from swinging horn lantern here

streams that flow evenly with steady,

The Young Man Who Saw a Chance to
Get Ahead in the World.
: A few years ago circumstances opened
I'D a lucky chance to young man who
was elzing out a poor and unpleasant
existence on a scrubby farm IN the
Piscataquis backwoods. Even THIS
moor bit of earth was not all his own,
saws the Lewiston (Me.) journal. He
was remote from neighbors, and so far
from a sawmill that the buildings
were left to tumble down for want OF
lumber to repair them. In this state
of things the Canadian Pacific railway
was located around the side OF the
mountain just above his valley, and
hundreds of Italians and other labor
ers were put to work. 1t required two
wears to build this part of the road,
working winters as well as in warm
weather. The humble farmer saw his
chance. He went to the settlements
and secured a supply of clothing and
knick-knacks to sell on commission,
and soon rose to the dignity OF having
goods of his own. He does not live III
the backwoods any more, for as soo1
as the road was built and the laborers
departed he folded his tent also and
went forth, bought one OF the bes
farms in Piscataquis, paying casi
down, and now lives in comfort, rlde
in his carriage, sends his children t.
the best schools and all that. Ill
ease is one of those which show tn
advantage of promptly catching hol

unexpected place
