ANOTHER DAVIS WILL.
A COnvict'S story of How "a Millionaire
Disposed of His Wealth.

BUTTE Mont, May ia stir has been
created among the heirs of the Davis es-
tate by the receipt of a letter from the
American Tract Society, in New York. in
closing another from Edward Stoddard, an
inmate of the Trenton IN. j. penitentiary.
Stoddard claims to have positive knowledge
of the existence of will made by the late
A. j. Davis, by which the American Tract
Society, American Bible Society and Amer
lean Board of Foreign Missions were each
bequeathed $4,000, and by which IS, 900
was set aside for a university in Butte
Stoddard's knowledge, he claims comes
from the fact that he had the will in his
possession for long time for the purpose
of forging another will at the instance of
some OF the legatees mentioned in it, who
were dissatisfied with their requests The
scheme for forgery, however, was not COM
pleted when he was sent to the peniten-
tiary, and he only recently learned that the
original will had not been probated. He
says the will was executed in 1883, and is
still in existence.
TRENTON N Y, May 19-Secretary
Shearer, of the American Tract Society, of
New York, to-day visited the New Jersey
state prison to corroborate the story Of
Convict Edwin Stoddard's statement. He is
satisfied that there is nothing in the story
and the prison officials ridicule it.

AT CARPENTERS WINEROOMS
DisgracefuI BrawI in Which He
Knocked His Wife Down.

A riotous time at the saloon, wine rooms
and resort for lewd characters of Clark
Carpenter, Nos. Sc and IS West Market
street, last night attracted the attention of
the police. Carpenter himself telephoned
to the police station asking that his Wife
be arrested if she came to the station.
When Mrs. Carpenter arrived she was al
lowed to tell her story of the trouble be-
tween herself and her husband without be-
ing arrested. She said that her husband
had been away from home for a week, pre-
vious to which she had discovered several
letters in his pockets addressed to him by
Muncie woman by the name of Buckley.
She judged his disappearance could be ac-
counted for by his relations with the Mum
Gle woman. Last night at 10:S0 she went to
her husbands saloon and restaurant to get
supper. She was accompanied by her
