Atlanta, Ca, Sept. "a hot tight IS be-
ing waged in the United States court be-
fare Judge William T. Newman over the
disposition of the proceeds of the sale OF
the Marietta and North Georgia railroad.
The report to-day OF Commissioner Low
cry shows that he has on hand $10l 1863
and this the court thought would be SUI
ficient TO pay all legitimate claims against
the fund Attorneys Hoke Smith and j.
7. Glenn, however. put a different phase
on the situation by asserting that they
had a prior claim on the money as attor-
neys for the reorganization committee.
Judge Tompkins. representing the Gen.
trail Trust Company. opposed this. con-
tending that his clients, who loaned
money to the reorganization committee,
are entitled to get it back before the at
torneys who represented the committee
are paid.
Judge Newman will hear this phase of
the fight tomorrow
The total outside claims against The fund
Ia hand viii amount to 100000 If The at
torneys of the reorganization committee
come in first, the remainder will not pay
the clients Of Judge Tompkins, and hence

THEY WANT ABOUT $4,000.
california Physicians After n Big
Slice of Mrs. Parsons Estate.

The executors of the will of Mrs. Sarah
NJ. Parsons are endeavoring to bring up
f,r hearing as soon as possible the matter
of the petition for a probate in solemn
form of her will, which as is we'll known,
out her husband off with s. and his We'd
ding ring. There has been considerable
6-lay in the matter since lawyers move
sIow.y. but it is understood that when the
case comes up, at it will soon, it will de-
velop some interesting facts.
The most interesting feature Of the case
which has recently come to light is the
way the California physicians who attend
ID Mrs. Parsons in her last illness figure
in it. Mrs. Parsons was attended by two
or three physicians in San Francisco,
where she was visiting, among them her
brother-in-law. DR.. Mas, to whose
daughter she left the bulk of her estate
These physicians, DR.. Mas included, have
nut in claims against the estate for be-
tween $1,000 and $500 for services render
ed to Mrs Parsons
The claims of the physicians, as a mat
Ter of fact, amount to nearly, if not quite
one-ffth Of the entire value of the es-
tate. Mrs. Parsons property is various
" estimated between $4,000 and $40, 900,
so that it win be seen that the claim of
the doctors will cut good slice out of it,
should it be allowed. Then again a large
portion of the estate will be eaten up in
costs and fees, not including the lawyers
fees, which depend largely on the length
Of time the litigation continues, so it will
be seen that the heirs have got to hustle
fer their share, if they expect to get it,
Mrs. Parsons died last December, and
the will was filed shortly afterward, hav-
ing been sent here from California. 1t
has been probated in common form. no
protest to that having been entered on
the part of DIR. Parsons. and it is now
pending on a motion for probate in solemn
form. After the matter has been decided
in the court of ordinary, it matters not
which side wins. it will go to the su-
perior court on an appeal and then no
doubt to the supreme court, and perhaps
even that will not settle it on the first
round.

fore Justice Nelson af that district, on a
charge of arson. One of the farmers in
the neigihborhood of Beach Hammock
