Takes an Entirely New
Departure.
Cuts off Possible Widows
and Children.
Large Bequests to Immediate Rela-
atives and to Charitable Insti-
tutiOns in San Francisco,

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec 29-Up to
ments had ben made for the funeral
of the late ex-senator James G. Fair,
and it will probably not take place for
several days yet. One of the first tel
egrams received by Charles Fair, the
Herman Oelrichs at New York, stat
ing that he and Mrs. Oelrichs would
leave at once for San Francisco. The
funeral will be deferred until their
arrival. There were many callers at
the Lick house this morning, a num-
Der of them being old friends of the
departed millionaire, but no one was
allowed admission to the death cham
ber. An autopsy to discover the ex-
act cause of death is in progress this
morning. At it's conclusion the re-
mains will be embalmed and beld
until the arrival of Mr.. and Mrs. Oel-
ricls, who are expected to- reach the
city Friday next.
The will of the late ex-senator Jas.
G. Fair was filed for probate this
morning. The great bulk of his estate
is left to his three children in trust
The trustees are L. G. Bresse, Jr., ].
S. Angus, T. D. Crothers and W. s.
Goodfellow, all without bonds. The
children are to have the income of the
estate during their lives. In the event
of the death of the daughters, their
share is to go to their children. Should
Charles Fair die his share is to be
divided equally between the sisters.
Among the large bequests are the fol-
lowing: $25O,OOO to Mary Anderson,
a sister, living at Ida Grove, Ia, and
a like amount to her husband, John
Anderson, and children; $250,OO0 also
to another sister, Margaret J. Crothers,
who resides at San Jose with her FAM
lily; $4,000 each to his son-in-law,
Herman Oelrichs, of New York, and
the dead millionaire's brother, VIM.
Fair, of Ida Grove, and $4,000 to
another brother, Edward Fair, of Ida
Grove Bequests to charities are. as
follows: $4,000 TO be divided among
the Cathoiic orphan s,2>sss fitlsTs, 9po3,u0G
to the Protestant asylums, and $50
600 to the Hebrew asylImS of this
county.
The will cuts off the widow and pos
sible children of his son, Charles T..
Fair, from any portion of the estate
beyond the one-third part of the net
income which he will receive during
his life time.
About a year ago "Charlie" Fair
married a notorious woman of San
Francisco, and became estranged from
his father. In was only a short time
ago that a partial reconciliatio was
effected. Young Fair is in very poor
health, suffering from Brights di-
sease and his physicians do not believe
he can live long. In view of the scan
dalous will contests that have arisen
in California upon the death of SO
many of the Millionaire pioneers, one
clause of ex-senator Fairs will is
particularly interesting. He writes:
81 do solemnly declare that I am not
married; also that l have no children
other than my son, Charles T. Fair,
and my daughters, Theresa A. and
Virginia. 1 have noted the facility
with which sworn testimony may be
procured and produced in support of
the claims of alleged widows and
adopted children, and the frequent re-

ATTEMPTED ROBBERY.
Masked Men Try to Hold up Train
in Arkansas.

Camden, Ark, Jan. 1.-Six masked
men made an effort to rob the north
bound Cotton Belt train due here at
10 O'Clock, at the water tank ten miles
south of. Camden. Their object was
to secure the express money. The
train stopped as usual to take water
and the negro porter got off the train
to go around to the tank and let the
water ON. He was stopped, however,
by a Winchester in his face and made
to unceuple the cars. The engineer
was compelled to run the cars up the
track from the train half a mile The
bandits discovered too late that they
had made a water haul, taking the
baggage car instead of the express
Car. The leader told the engineer
that he had the laugh On them, but
they would see him again. They thaI.
took to the woods.

WANT TO INCREASE PRICES.
Lumbermen at Frisco to Form a
Combination in That Line.

San Francisco, Jan. 1.-Nearly every
prominent firm dealing in lumber in
this city is interested in a movement
to form combination to increase
prices and insure profit in that branch
of business, which has been conducted
at loss for months. Local lumber
men are united in declaring that trade
mas been worse than proftless for a
year. Cargoes have been sold at a
loss of 5000 and $500. 1t was found
cheaper in many instances to have
work performed and material pIr-
chased in British Columbia rather
than in this city. The only possible
field for even small profits is in a
foreign market.

Much Fuss About Nothing.

The report that the Great Nor
thern had made traffic arrange
ment with the Corbin road has
caused a good deal of comment.
Some seem to regard it as adverse
to the welfare of Bonner's Ferry.
The HERALD does not regard it as a
matter of much consequence. The
arrangement has been in force since
last July and is no new thing. but
it is the first time G.. n. officials
have admitted it. Another feature
is that the Great Northern never
did do anything for this town, so,
in reality we have lost nothing.
We never had it to lose. There is
more traffic in sight for next year
on the Kootenai River route than
ever before. AS to the G. n. taking
off their boats, they can not with
draw the service they have given
us any too quick to suit Bonner's
Ferry. If they will give all boat
lines an equal show, which they
could do by Withdrawing alto.
gether, this town would have what
she had before the railway entered
the feld-good, competitive service.
Uatil the G, n. gets ready to oc-
cupy this route in earnest, Bonner's
Ferry will be far better off if the
railway company will keep its
hands off altogether. The new
deal does not produce any appre-
hension for the future in these
quarters. The G. & K. S. N. Co.
will run its boats here as usual.
Two, and possibly three, new
steamers will be builton the Koot-
enai for next seasons business.

Another Race with vigilsnt May Rot He
Deemed Necessary.


Nxw YORK, July e3.--Although De
fender and Vigilant sailed yesterday for
the second time under the auspices OF the
New York Yacht club in a cup race, the
contest was designed to furnish basis Of
Judgment to the Americas cup committee
for the choice OF the defender in tho ulti-
mate international races this fall.
Defender won ON Saturday, and she won
again yesterday, and by ON. sos. unofficial
time. Defender started 40 seconds In ad-
vance of Vigilant and she finished yester-
day afternoon over the 30 mile triangular
course in the elapsed time OF An. ION. Sos.
Vigilant's elapsed time is An. 2em. Thus
the boats have had windward and a
beating contest, and they have had the
triangular course, which afforded them
two reaches and one practically wind
ward run.
The data furnished thus TO the cup COM
mittee may not determine one or the other
OF the boats ms a result of these races TO be
the choice for the autumn contests. The
results Of Saturday and Of yesterday are,
however, before them, and IL is profile
matical whether any further trial races OF
the Vigilant or Of any other boats will DO
