Is Bequeathed to Two
Daughters.
The instrument Informally Exc
Cuted-An Anti Claimant
Clause.

The will of Jerome B. Cox, who died
April % last, was filed for probate yester.
day. 1t was brief document, covering
only two pages of foolscap, though it dis
posed of some $4,000. There was some in
formality in the execution of the instru-
ment, but apparently the testator was very
anxious to kill all illegal claims against
his estate.
The will gives all the estate, valued at
$4,000 in personal property, to his
daughters, Ada Nottingham Martin and
Genevieve Cox Bancroft, whom it nomi-
mates executives without bonds, re-
questing that no inventory or appraise-
ment of the estate be required of them.
The will continues:
I am unmarried, but if any woman should
come forward and say she was my wife, upon
the proof being made before any court of jus
tice, give and bequeath to said woman the
sum OF five dollars. ] have no legitimate
children, bur if any person should claim to be
my child, upon the proof being made before
any court OF Justice, give and bequeath the
sum OF five dollars to said person.
The will is dated January, A. D. 1885,
and purports to have been witnessed by
Ulysses G. Hoover and G. A. SWEET, and
on the reverse side of the first page appears
the date January II. 1896" with the
signature of testator and witnesses re-
peated. Mrs. Martin, in her petition for
letters of administration over the estate,
acknowledges that the will is not properly
executed sin that the subscription was not
made in the presence of either of the wit
nesses and that the deceased did not
acknowledge to either attesting witness
that the subscription was made by him or
his attorney"
Edgar B. Raymond appears as attorney
for the petitioner, who states that she and
her sister Genevieve are the next-of-kin of
deceased

STEALING OF STREETS.
An Order to Prevent Such Work-Bitumino us
Rock Ordinance.

An Order to Prevent Such -Bitumin ous
Rock Ordinance.
At the meeting of the Board of Superb
sors yesterday Dimond introduced a new
ordinance to take the place of the other re-
Gently passed requiring that a notice of
forty-eight hours be given the City by rail-
way or other corporations before any work
of tearing up the streets was begun.
He explained that the other had defect
which made it imperative according to
Police Judge Low, there being no penalty
of fine, but only mprisonment. The ordi-
nance is similar to the other, only adding
the penalty of $500 fine. He said if this
did not prove effective he would keep at it
until he got one that would. The ordi-
nance took the regular course.
Mayor Sutro's veto message as to the
authorization to pay the last $500 on the
Alta Plaza contract was read and followed
the usual course. The reason assigned
for the veto was the assurance that the
work was not done up to contract.
An order requiring all street railway car
companies to provide proper and accept
able guards in front, at the side and in the
rear OF the dummies and cars was intro
duced. The guards must be in place June
1. Plans must be submitted to the board
within thirty days.
The communication from the City and
County Attorney reported by the Judici-
airy Committee, setting forth that no taxes
can be collected until October, was simply
placed on file.
With regard to a petition from the
Manufacturers Association asking that a
time be appointed when they might be
heard with regard to their request that the
granting of franchises within the City and
County be conditioned upon using, when
possible, goods manufactured in Califor-
MIA, the Finance Committee reported that
if the association would aid the Super
visors in the matter the end would be &C.
complished, as what they ask has been
part of the conditions with which fran
chises have been awarded for some years.
The objections to the sewer to relieve the
vicinity of Lombard and Chestnut streets
of the stagnant lakes were not sustained
The City Engineer was instructed by q
resolution to prepare plans for sewers to
relieve the vicinity of the Presidio, about
which so much complaint has been made.
The contract for printing the delinquent
tax list was awarded to the Post, the lowest
bidder; 10 cents for each tax levy.
A resolution was passed to print grant
ing the Brooks Sign Company the privilege
of building a fence around the Lolita Foun-
tain and maintaining it for eighteen days
as an advertising board in consideration
for painting the fountain.
The Hirsch order limiting the speed of
streetcars to six miles an hour on certain
streets was passed to print.
A resolution was passed to print grant
ing Charles M. Shortridge the privilege of

building at 10 Market street, which was
torn down by the firemen during the fire
at the Golden Rule Bazaar.
A resolution appointing Joseph A. Nor
gan as hsh and game warden for this City
ana county, according to the act OF the
last Legislature, caused a protest from
supervisor Dimond. He said nominal
tons should be allowed, as there were sew
eral candidates, and one especially had
been urged upon him.
Hughes said the law required the APP
polntment to be made at the first meeting
IN April, and as that had not been done he
questioned the right to name him now. The
matter was laid over for week.
supervisor Hughes introduced resolu-
ton on behalf of the recently vetoed and
famous bltuminous rock ordinance, which
after long preamble reciting the history
of the order, said:
ResoIued, That the Superintendent of Streets
be and is hereby requested to prepare specih-
cations which in his judgment will tend to
secure the use of good bitumen in the con-
struction OF proper and lasting pavements and
submit the same to the board.
A resolution was adopted to the effect
that 1.-The Market-Street Railway Com
pany be directed to proceed Immediately
with the work of constructing its road on
Folsom street"
A resolution was passed that "Whereas
Francis j. O'Connor and w. G. Hoog-
kamar each having proved delinquent and
unfaithful in the performance of certain
street work under contracts granted them
no proposals for public work be consid-
cred from these contractors hereafter"
The board then adjourned

was gayly chatting with party of friends
in the parlors of Mrs. Isaacs, 927 Suffer
street, where he has been living since the
death of his wife. about two years ago.
He had been troubled with slight at.
tacks of this character for twenty years
but had never o thcrwise had a day OF
serious sickness. During his last illness
he almost continuously suffered terrible
agony and repeatedly begged his attend
ing physician to put him out of his
misery.
Deceased was 70 years of age. He was
born in Gnesen, Prussia, and came to the
United States in 1850. He first dwelt in
New York; thence he wentto Pennsylvania
and came to California in 1851, taking up
the business of general merchandising at
the mining town of Volcano, Amador
County. Later he went to Sacramento and
then went to New Haven, Conn. In 1866
he returned to California, settling for good
in this city, where he acquired quite COM
petence.
For the past twenty years he has lived
from his rent revenue. He was a member
of Harmony Lodge, /. o. 0. F., and OF
Ophir Lodge, /. o. B. B., and had passed
a member of the B'nai 'rith Grand Lodge.
His funeral will take place this morning
at 10 O. clock from the residence of his oldest
son, Marcus, the well-known attorney OF
this city. During yesterday hundreds OF
friends called to pay their last respects to
all that is now mortal of the departed.
Besides the sons mentioned, the de-
ceased left two others. Joseph is also an
attorney, but has not practied in his pro-
fession of late, preferring to devote him
self to real estate speculation. 1t was he
who built the Rosenthal building on
Market, opposite Jones street. Louis is
the editor of an influential paper pub
lished at Biloxi, Miss.
One OF the strongest characteristics of
the deceased was his spirit of indepen-
dence As indicative of this phase of his
disposition one story is told.
AT the time his son Toby had developed
his artistic ability sufficiently to make his
parents consider the proposition of send
ing him to Paris to study, they were not
In what are usually termed easy circum-
stances. Toby, by his talent and general
good nature, had made many friends.
Among these was the generous hearted
late Charles Kohler of the firm of Kohler
81 Frohling.
Learning of the plans OF the rising young
artists parents, Mr.. Kohler called upon
the father at his place of business and ex-
planning that himself and nineteen other
friends and admirers of Toby, all members
OF the German Verein, desiring to Tighten
the way for the young man, whom they
considered one of them, he being OF Ger
man parents, had raised a purse of $1,000
which they desired him to accept in order
that he might the sooner reach the goal of
his aspirations. Though rendered in this
delicate manner, the proposed contribu-
ton was gratefully but nevertheless firmly
declined.

AN ASSESSORS POWERS.
Opinion of the United States court o.
Appeals in a Taxation
Case.

The United States Circuit Court OF APP
peals yesterday reiterated the doctrine IN
a decision in Montana taxation case that
where taxpayer refuses or neglects to
make up list of his taxable property for
assessment, the right to assess is vested IN
the assessor.
This principle is held to be inherent in
American institutions, and, as the Cali
fornia Supreme Court decided in the case
of San Francisco VS.. Flood, no delinquent
can expect favorable consideration in the
courts as to any loss resulting to him ow-
ing to such assessment.
The lower court had sustained w. J.
Anderson's demurrer to the action of the
Custer County Commissioners on the
ground that there had been no strictly
legal assessment under the new State law.
That judgment the Court of Appeals re-
verses.

GAY RoYALTY's EsCAPADE.

Queer stories reach England of the
doings in Spain of Prince Henry OF
Battenberg, the husband of Queen Vic
toria's daughter Beatrice. Incidentally,
the illness of tie young Duk, d'Orleans
gets a new and sensational explanation.
Prince Henry hss returned from his
holiday making with a few bosom
friends, but if rumor speaks true he hes
drawn e discreet veil over some adven-
lures which his staid mother in law
would scarcely approve. The Prince
certainly had good time and bis ex
uberant spirits nearly got him into seri.
Gus trouble 90 more than one occasion
A. Seville. for instance, be insisted Oh
going to fair with the rolicking Duk"
of Orleans, who, according to official
announcement, was badly hurt while
hunting, the Dul1e d'Alba, the Marquis
dc la Nina, and other young sprigs oi
the Spanish nobility. In one ot the
tents two beauties of the Sevil:
a i,tocracy danced Andalusian dane 5
for the delectatioa of the Prime
and the fun became uproarious.
B sttenberg declared that his happi-
ness required for its com ;leiion ouly
view Of one Of those Droncas or fights
with knives. for which Seville fairs ars
famous. He was not long lett ungra,i
fed. The Duke of Orleans had earlier
in the day taken the liberty of kissing
one Of the rustic beauties at the fair.
She did not resent the salute, and her
fiery sweetheart tried TO get at the
Duke with intent to kill.
The Duke was spirited away, but ar
hour later the irate swain fouad MIN
watching the dancing in the tent and
began shouting fearful abuse at him.
Marquis Nina smote the fellow across
the head with his walking stick. Forth
with there arose full-havored bronca.
The princes and dukes soon found
themselves desperately defending the
tent against an infuriated crowd of sew
eral hundred peasants. 1t would have
gone hard with them had not the adj
vance of the police created diversion,
which enabled them to escape out OF
the back of the tent. 1t is believed
that several OF the royal party suffered
slight stabs. and there is persistent
rumor that tits serious wound receiv-
ed in this affray aud not fall from
horse that is keeping the Duke of Or
leans in bed. British newspapers so
far have not breaihed word Of Bat
