FORTUNE FOR BAKER HEIRS.

Four Million Dollars Said to Be Lo.
Gated in Philadelphia.
Pittsburg Nov. 1.-THE Commercial
Gazette prints the following: 1.-THE at.
torneys for the Baker heirs have dis.
covered, they claim $4.000.000 In actual
cash in Philadelphia institution, and
proceedings will be begun Immediately
to get possession. When the attorneys
representing the Baker heirs associa-
ton Of western Pennsylvania and sast-
ern Ohio went to Philadelphia they had
nothing 10 go on. 1t was discovered
that Jacob and John Baker presumed
to have been brothers, had invested
certain money In the year Of 1882 in
Philadelphia. and afterwards died. Ths
heirs Of these men could not be located
The money that had been invested was
paid into court in the early part of this
century.
Since that time these persons have
been received which leads the attorneys
here to think that there can be no pos
sibie doubt about 1t now. The actnR-
neys have figured II out generally. ana
estimate the amount to be In the neigh
borhood of $4,000, 008. The 80 year lease
has been knocked out. The money. So
far as discovered, has not been paid.

CAPITOL COMMISSION WINS.


The Courts Cannot Interfere With the
Pennsylvania Building.
Pittsburg, Nov. 1.-THE supreme
court yesterday handed down Its de-
cision in the noted state capitol COM
mission cases, affirming the decision of
the lower courts in Diminishing bills in
equity filed by the architects whose de-
signs had been rejected by the board
of commissioners provided for by the
legislature to select designs and plans
for a new capitol building. This de-
cision defeats the effort made to set
aside the award Of the commission.
Justice Mitchell handed down the
opinion, which is in brief as follows:
Complainants have shown no interest
In the subject matter emitting them to
the relief. The compliments violated
the terms of the competition; and were
therefore not entitled to the selection.
The action of the commissioners COM
planned of was not illegal. but was JUS
titled in the terms Of the program.
Even If the action of the commissioners
had been in disregard Of the program
they could not bind themselves to dele
gate their discretion or limit their final
judgment. The state being the real
party in interest as defendant. and its
officers not being alleged to be acting
in violation Of the laws which created
their authority, the courts are without
jurisdiction.
