AWARDED PATENTS TO DISPOSE
 OF.

Lyman M Laws petition as executor of the estate of Peter Durham for new appraisal on the estate of w. Has, kel King was withdrawn in the pro- bate court yesterday morning. It will be remembered that MT. Law claimed that the appraisers of the King estate undervalued the patents of the estate in inventorying them at $40. MT. Laws interest in the matter arises from the Durham estate being the creditor of the King estate to the amount of $1,500,
 Yesterday morning the interested par ties held a conference. They agreed to place the sale of the patents in the hands of MT Law. He is to get the best price possible for them and, with the sanction of the court, may dispose of them at the end of six months in whatever way is the most advanta- geous. It is understood that MT. Law values the patents al 1000. The King estate was inventoried at $340.
