FAIR WILL CASE.
Knotty Problem is Still Far From
Solution.

San Francisco, May 1.-THE jurors in
the case of Angus VS.. Craven, involving
the Fair estate, were excused today, the
entire time of the court being occupied
with arguments in reference to the objec-
ton of Mrs Craven's attorney that the
Photographic engagements introduced by
the plaintiffs are irrelevant The ques-
ton at issue at the present stage is really
as to the admssibility of evidence tend
ing to prove that the pencil will dated
September q, 1854 is a forgery.
According to the testimony of Mrs Cra-
ven. the will was drawn ard read by
called his attention to the fact that it
contained no provision for Mrs. Craven.
L have provided for her in this way"
replied the senator, and he produced the
pencil deeds in question and gave them
to her. ~
The plaintiffs claim that the will is a
part of the same transaction and really
called to existence the deeds. They main
tain that evidence that the will is a for
gerry will tend to prove the deeds given
at the same time are forgeries. They take
the position that the will is fabricated
evidence in support of forgery. Mrs. Cra-
ven'S attorney opposed the admission of
the evidence on the ground that proof of
one forgery by a. certain person is not
competent to prove another forgery by
cited the Sharon case more than year
ago. The attorney for the Fair admins
traitors replied that the dear WIFE let
tiers in the Sharon case were introduced
in court by Photographic reproductions
exactly in the same manner as photo
graphic reproductions had been brought
into court in this case.
