contract has been signed between rep
resentativas of the big japanese steam

CHICAGO, July 18.-The Western I'm
ion Telegraph company has arranged
to send a free bulletin service over the
country from the Populist and Bimetal-
lie conventions, which meet in st. Louis
next week, just as it did from the late
Republican and Democratic conven-
tons. 1t has learned tina: service of
this kind costs the company for oper-
ating and delivering expense between
$4,000 and $4,000 per day, not to men
ton the extensive wire facilities re-
quired to perform it. The st. Louis
and Chicago bulletins were sent to
some $4,000 offices and were given to
the press and public free of charge.
The Chicago bulletins of the Democratic
convention distributed over the var
ious circuits from its New York Office
alone, as they were received there,
amounted in the aggregate to two and
half million words.

The state supreme court yesterday
handed down an opinion in the matter
Of the estate of Millen Atwood, de-
! ceased. The opinion, which was writ
ten by Chief Justice Zane and con-
CURED in by Justices Miner and Street,
reversed the decree of the court below
and remanded the case with instruc-
tons to grant new trial
The facts, briefly stated, are that
Millen Atwood died on December r,
1890, leaving will bequeathing his en-
tire estate to his widow, Rebey c. At
wood, and to his three children, Nillen
M. Atwood, Abbie Angenette Sermon
and Rosalie Esther Kelch. The de-
ceased left another daughter, Florence
Atwood, by polygamous wife, who
was not mentioned in the will.
Florence, aged Is, by her guardians,
brought suit, claiming the same portion
OF the estate that she would have re-
ceived if her father had died intestate,
basing her claim on the statement that
it did not appear in the will that her
fathers omission to provide for her
in the will was Intentional
The court below found in favor of
Florence, and ordered that she be given
her share Of the estate, amounting to
nearly $4,000.
The grounds upon which a new trial
is granted are that the lower court
erred in excluding from the testimony
declarations of the testator made be-
fore, about the time of and after the
execution of the will, offered to prove
that the omission of Florence from the
will was Intentional
The other rulings of the court below
the opinion held were correct.
