"Pap" Anson on Trial.

Chicago, July 9.--Captain Anson and his colts were placed on trial before a judge this forenoon for playing base ball in their ball park on Sunday, June 23. The two witnesses were Rev. w w. Clark and F.. T. Cornell, who lived in the neighborhood of the ball park They swore that they. could hear dis turbance while they were in the house on the street. None of them could identify the defendants, and were obliged to admit on cross-examination that the noise was made by the audi ence. All the witnesses for the defense agreed that 5000 or 5000 people in the park made less noise than a political convention or a Salvation army of equal size Not one of them could imagine the noise made as being more disturb ing than the Chicago bells, rumbling of wagons, procesSions or cable cars. The justices decision was postponed until 2 o'clock tomorrow.

JAPANESE QUITE SAUCY.
ELATED AND FEVERISH OVER
THEIR Late VICTORY.
The Little Men May Yet become
Serious Factors IN the Govern
ment of Hawaii-ReasOn to be-
Iieve That Dole and His Friends
VIII Be 'Out of Jobs" By the First
of Next August.

San Francisco. May Sit is probable
some very exciting scenes in Hawaii.
Private information recently received
by c. W. Ashford in this city indi-
Gates that several kinds Of trouble are
gathering around the government of
President Dole and his colleagues.
The japanese, who are numerous on
the island. and who at present are
feverish and elated over the victory of
their mother country in the war with
China, threaten to come forward and
become serious factors in the govern
ment of Hawaii and the adjustment
Of it's affairs. 1t is known that among
the Japanese now on the islands there
are several hundred trained soldiers
in fact, there are enough of them to
seize control of the government at any
time should they choose to do so.
The natives are restless and diSsatiS-
fed and only wait an opportunity to
fly in the thick of another insurrection.
1t is plain, judging from the infor-
nation of Mr.. Ashford, that the base of
operations in the next outbreak will be
on the island of Maui.
81 have nothing to do with these
operations" said Mr.. Ashford, ''but
as I am known to be an enemy of the
Dole crowd and a sympathizer with
any movement that will bring about a
real republic, a government by the
people and for the people of Hawaii,
my friends naturally keep me advised
of what is going on. 1t is my firm be-
lief that Mr.. Dole and his fellow Of
ficials will not be in office on the LIST
OF next August"

A Continuance,

San Francisco, May S.-There was a
preliminary skirmish in the Fair will
case today, without result to either
side. This was the day fixed for hear
ing the petition for the probating of
the will dated September II, 1894, to
which opposition has been filed by
Charles L. Fair At the request of the
executors, a continuance was granted
for one week, to enable the executors
to consider this proposition, the execu-
tors, however, not conceding young
Fairs right to contest the will. The
Fair children then objected to the con-
test commenced by the attorney APP
pointed TO represent the minor heirs.
Among his clients he includes Herman
Oelrichs, jr. AS Herman Oelrichs has
been appointed general guardian of-his
infant son. he desires that his own at
toTney shall also represent the child.
The attorney for the minor heirs argues
that the interests of the general guard
ian are antagonistic to those of his
child, whom he contended should be
represented by some one entirely dis
interested. The court took the point
under adyiSement

San Francisco, May s.-There will be
battle royal over the twenty or more
millions left by the late Senator James
G. Fair. and the prospect of long liti-
cation promises fat pickings for the
army Of lawyers in the case.
Charles L. Fair has filed his contest
of the will of his father, sometimes
described as the "Goodfeliow will and
sometimes called the ''pen wilP' as dis
tinguished from the pencil wilP' pro-
duced by Mrs. Nettie Craven.
The contest is made partly on the
ground of the existence of a will made
later, to wit, the Craven will. and
partly on the ground Of undue influence
working on man in enfeebled health.
1t has been an open secret for some
time that the attorneys for Charles
Fair were not at all in fear of the
famous forfeiture clause in the Good
fellow will, providing that any legatee
who shall contest shall forfeit all right

CANADIAN TARIFF.
A PETITION ASKS THAT III BE
AMENDED AT ONCE.
ported Free Into the Dominion.

Victoria, B. c., May SAN important
petition was telegraphed to the govern
ment at Ottawa today by representative
canning firms having their headquarters
in Victoria, asking that the Canadian
tariff be amended Immediately by an
order in council if necessary to enable
salmon and other fish of similar charac-
ter to be imported free in the Dominion.
This petition is the outcome of the re-
cent decisions of the board of appraisers
Of New York. given on Jan. II, to the
effect that the same are fresh water fish
and as such are entitled to free entry
into the United States. The immediate
local effect of this order is that while
American Gamers of Point Roberts,
Blaine, and other neighboring towns of
Washington state can now get salmon
from British Columbia, including the
Frazer river, free of duty British Column
bia. Gamers under the Canadian tariff
pay half a cent per pound duty, equal to
four or five cents on each salmon, for
any fish they get from the United States.
This means an advance to American
Gamers, against which it will be useless
to struggle and unless the desired amend
ments to the Canadian tariff are secured
many Of the British Columbia firms con-
template retirement from a once profit
able business.

to a share of the estate of Fair. either
as heir-in-law, or as a beneficiary under
the will.
The "pen Will is dated September
q, 1894; the Craven will is dated Sep
TENDER "a, 1894. The first left the pro-
Fair $780, 900 outright, besides share
Of the balance of the estate.
Charles S. Wheeler, one of Charles
Fairs attorneys, was seen last night
and, among other things he said that
a wrong impression had gone abroad
relative to the meaning of Judge
Stacks decision on Monday last.
Our effort" said Mr.. Wheeler, was
not directed merely to the proposition
that the later will should be heard
first, but we asked further that the
earlier will go off the calendar In
definitely until the determination of
the validity of the Craven will. so
called.
Judge Stack denies that motion, but
it still remains for him to decide which
OF the two wills he will first take up
With regard to the forfeiture clause
Mr.. Wheeler said:
There are a number of grounds on
which we believe it will be disregarded
One of these is the wording Of the
clause which confines the forfeiture to
legatees or devisees' who may contest.
IN our view the only leSateeS or de-
visees are the trustees. We do not be-
lieve that the annuitants to whom the
trustees are directed to pay over the
income in specific shares can, in the
strict meaning Of the words, be de-
scribed as legatees or devisees. Every
thing is devised to the trustees, who
are directed what to do with the pro-
ceeds. That is a technical point, but
forfeiture clauses are always con-
strued in the strictest way against the
instrument, and if there is the slight
est ambiguity they fall to the
ground"
Charles L. Fair is the champion Of
the proponents, the attorneys urging
that it is not necessary for Mrs. Her
man Oelrichs and Miss Virginia Fair
to join. They maintain that the thing
to break is the will, and the will once
broken is broken for all.
Herman Oelrichs. Mrs. Oelrichs. Miss
Fair and some friends will leave for
the east in a private car this evening
bound for New York. They will prob
ably go abroad before returning to
California

Reason to Hope 1T May Be Broken
Today.
Dover, Del, May S.-With the excep-
ton Of a brief recess between and .
O'Clock, the baIlotlng for a United States
senator was kept UP until o'clock.
when an adjournme nt was had for
consultation. When the balloting was
taken up again at s o'clock, it was
seen that a combination was on foot
by which H. A. Dupont was to he
withdrawn and William Dupont sub
stituted. This, however, did not meet
with the approval Of the Higgins men,
who, on the thirty-third ballot, again
sprung the name of DR.. Horace r. Bur
ION. This ballot resulted as follows:
Hiram r. Burton, 8; William Dupont,
10; H. A. Dupont. 1; Ridgley. 9; Tun-
mel, 1.
After forty-one ballots had been
taken without result, Senator Handy
moved that q recess be taken until g
O'Clock tomorrow morning. which was
carried by a strict party vote. Both
William Dupont and DR.. Burton are
sn the city tonight and vigorous mis-
slonary work will be done between now
and day-break. There seems but little
doubt but that the Republican pro-
gramme is to elect a senator tomorroW
and they have enough votes at their
command to keep up a continuous joint
session and delay any adverse action
the senate may take on the resolution
