ALLEN WILL CASE
Has n Preliminary Hearing I'm the
Probate Court.


A preliminary hearing was had in the
probate court yesterday in the matter
of the estate of Julia M. Allen, who
died last July leaving property valued
at some $4,000. Mrs. Edith Sanborn,
the niece of the deceased, has applied
for letters of administration on the
estate, but the application is opposed
by a number of relatives and others,
who allege that the deceased left will
which they seek to have admitted to
probate. Under this will, should it be
established, the estate would be divided
up among several, the bequest to Mrs.
Sanborn being about $4,000. If 1t should
be decided that there was no will in
existence after the death Of Julia M.
Allen, then Mrs. Sanborn will inherit
kin.
Yesterday afternoon Mrs. Sanborn
occupied the witness stand for two
hours and was examined by Pierce
Butler, the attorney for the propo-
nents of the will. According to Mrs
SaEhorn's story, she, acting upon the
request of her aunt, called at Attor-
ney Seymour's office on Thursday, July
%, 1897, and obtained possession of her
aunt's will. Returning home, she met
her aunt on the veranda and handed
her the will. which was enclosed in an
envelope. Her aunt died the following
Sunday, and Mrs. Sanborn testified
that she never saw either the will or
the envelope after she handed the pa
pers to her aunt.
The matter was adjourned for four
weeks. when Mrs. Sanborn will make
formal application to the probate court
to be appointed special administrator
and Mr.. Butler will oppose the same.

The resignation Of Assemblyman
Arosin from that body has brought out
three prominent candidates for the va
cancy, Henry Neff, F. c. Wagner and
A. s. Larson. Mr.. Arosin was quoted
as being in favor Of the election of
Henry Neff to succeed him, but last
evening 1t was stated that he had
changed his mind and would recon-
mend A. S. Larson as his successor.
MIR. Larson is a resident of the First
ward and is chief car inspector of the
Northern Pacific road. Henry Neff is
a grocer on Lafayette avenue, and
holds the position of secretary of the
First ward Republican committee,
which will have considerable weight
with the members of the assembly who
have the last guess at the new assem-
blyman. F. G. Wagner was spoken of
for the place some time ago, when it
was announced that Mr. Arosin intend
ed to resign, but his friends say he
will make no fight for the position. The
assembly will elect a man to fill the
vacancy caused by the resignation Of
Mr.. Arosin at the meeting to be held

THos. S. CLARK, Of Dover, who
was convicted on Friday, June 24th'
with aiding in the Dover Bank EN-
beZzlement, was sentenced on Monday
to five years in the Trenton Peniten-
tiary and fine of i've thousand dol
lars. On Thursday h9 was taken to
the prison. 1t is stated that he was
we'll pleased with the lenieney of the
sentence, the maximum possibility in
his case being 2S OF 30 years. Ing ..iry
has been made as to the difference in
sentence between the Cooper and Clark
cases, the indictments against Col.
Cooper being so much larger in
amount. U!e explanation is: The
Cooper verdict was compromise and
on a minor count, hence his sentence
was lighter. It is said his friends have
congratulated him Oh his brief term
since the Clark trial. Clark had his
handsome m0ustacie shaved off before
he left New Castle and Cooper did not
know him when they FIRST met in
prison.
Senator Gray asked for postpone
Eent of the trial Of Senator Kenney un-
til the October term but it was not
granted. The trial will begin

County Finances.

Messrs. John S. Rossell and John H.
Dandy, two well qualified men, were ap-
pointed to examine the finances of New
Castle county. They performed their duty
and their report shows that in the years
1891 to 1894 inclusive the taxes uncollected
amounted to more than forty -four thousand
dollars. The uncollected taxes of 1895 and
1895 are in the same condition, except for
the fact that the Legislature extended the
time of the lien of the taxes against
property until the year 1899. The ur-
collected taxes aggregated in January, 1898,
over sixty-two thousand dollars.
The report shows that in January, 1888,
there were taxes on the 1897 assessment
of nearly one hundred dollars. On Janu-
ary of the present year the bonded debt
of the county is reported to be nearly six
hundred Thousand dollars. Twenty
thousand dolIara of this sum will be due
this year. and nearly ninety thousand
dollars next year. In January the trea-
sury was absolutely empty and the county
was indebted to the Farmers Bank of
Wilmington for temporary loans amount
ing TO $40, 600, an overdraft of nearly seven
thousands dollars. and to John T. Dickey,
