EXECUTORS OF JOSEPHUS COL

A Note for This Amount Was In
dorscd I'm a Railroad Deal
Several Years Ago.

Judge Jump and DR.. Bogard, executors of
the estate of the late Josephus Collett. the
well-known Terre Haute capitalist, have
been ruled to answer in the United States
Court a week from to-day in the suit
brought by New York capitalists, who hold
a note for $500. 600 which Mr.. Collett in
dorsed. If the amount is paid out of his
estate it will prevent the execution of his
will, in which he made several large be-
quests TO public institutions, among them
$1,000 to the Rose Polytechnic Institute. of
Terre Haute, and $4,000 for an orphans
home in Vermillion county. where Mr.. Col
lett formerly lived.
When Mr.. Collett sold the Chicago & Ohio
River road TO Mr.. Mackey, he Endorsed the
note now in litigation. The note was is
sued by Mr.. Mackey, and had as indorsers,
besides Mr.. Collett, Mr.. Hopkins and Mr..
Baldwin, who were associated with Mr..
Mackey in the Mackey system of railroads.
Since the note was sold Mr.. Mackey has be-
come. a bankrupt and the names of Bald
win and Hopkins are not of account as re-
CARDS the payment of the note, and Mr.. Col
lett Is dead. At the time he made his will Mr..
Collect had no thought that he would ever
be called on TO pay any part of the note.
A few years before his death he was worth
$500. 900, but the loss of 500. coo In the wheel
trust and as much more by the shrinkage
of values in other industrial stocks, cut his
fortune in two He was a bachelor, and the
will bequeathed the remainder of the es-
tate, after paying the public requests, to
sisters, nieces and nephews. The exec
utors of the will have employed lawyers,
including General Harrison, TO resist the
payment of the $500. 900.

What Don VI. Dickinson Says about

WASHINGTON. Oct. 13.-Don NJ. Dickin-
son is in Washington with a committee to
look after the interests or Michigan in Sc
curing more rapid mail service. Mr.. Dick
inson's name has been spoken Of recently
as the one referred to by. Sir Lionel Sack
vilie-west in his pamphlet as the member
OF Mr.. Cleveland's Cabinet responsible for
the minister's summary dismissal. Mr.. Dick
inson was asked to-day as to the facts OF
the case. He said: AS the incident oc-

not care to 81 into the matter at length.
The developments OF no distant day would
speak more eloouently than words. He re-
ferred TO the fact that Daniel Webster had
recognized the Independence Of Greece many
years before that country had actually Sc
cured complete independence. and in those
days even Webster had been accused of
"jIngoism."
Ex-Congressman Weadock. who is in the
Michigan party, added TO Mr.. Dickinson's
statement that il was a recognized princi-
pie OF international law that a struggling
people should be recognized as belligerents
as soon as they showed their ability TO re-
sist the established government. This was
not a recognition of them rs a nation, but
as people entitled TO the rights OF civilized
warfare. The Cubans were entitled to it
now. and the question OF their recognition
as a nation would come afterwards.
