A DEAD WIFE'S ESTATE.
The Decision i'll the Case Of Reazley vs.
Cru,nD Considered Unusual.

AIc DCCIS!Ou All StlSC "a LcaLiVy vs.
Crnlnp Considered Unusual.
Z In the case of Beazley VS.. Crump in the
Law and Equity Court yesterday. the
question: was decided whether Crump, the
husband, was entitled to the curtesy in
the lands of inheritance of his dead wife,
or whether they passed at once to Beaz-
ley, her father and heir at law.
The lands in question were conveyed to
a trustee for the sole and separate benc-
fit of Mrs. Crump. with such terms and
conditions as made them her equitable
separate estate. The deed was executed
in March, 1894, and contained. among other
provisions, one providing that the prop
erty conveyed should be free from the
marital rights of Mrs. Crump's husband
The Court decided in favor OF Mr. Beaz-
ley and against the husbands right of
curtesy because the deed conveying the
separate estate was made since the pas
sage of the married woman's acts. Since
the passage of which act the only marital
right the husband has in his w7ifes sepa-
rate estate is the right of curteSy. and
the provision OF the deed depriving him
Of all marital rights is equivalent to say
ing that he shall! have no right of curtesy,
that being the only right he could have
in his wife's lands Of Inheritance.
This is considered an unusual decision,
but entirely in accord with the provisions
of the new law.

EAST LIVERPOOL, O., March 25.--
AS the result of yesterdays Republic
car county primary Congressman Il.
w. Tayler, who is asking denomination
In the Eighteenth district, will go into
the convention with a divided dele-
cation from his home county. The
indications are that Tayler will take
54h delegates out of the county and G.
G. Baker, of Alliance, 261a. The East
Liverpool potters stood by Tayler,
giving him a majority of ie9 IN the
city, while Wellsville and Salem went
to Baker. In Salem a very bitter post
Office fight resulted in the knitting OF
Taylor.
The other two counties In the
Eighteenth district are Mahoning and
Stark. Tayler claims he can split even
with Baker in his home county OF
Stark. Tayler is serving his third
term now. The result on Common
Pleas Judge was a surprise. Ralph 5.
Amber, Of Canton almost swept the
county, carrying all the large towns
except Lisbon. Judge !. H. Taylor, OF
Carrollton, the present incumbent will
get probably 16 out of 81 delegates.
Judge Taylor, it will be remembered,
presided in the Mrs. Annie George
murder case at Canton last year. 1t is
alleged that the influence of Nc
Kinley's was used against him.

Republican, is in danger and that to
save it many plums must be given.
A Sunday paper yesterday had a long
article on the political situation in
this city. The article is deep and hard
to understand, for it says the outlook
is for q close contest for each office,
and then comedies three-fourths OF the
ticket to the Republicans, and in one
item says at the start that both candi-
dates for City Solicitor are we'll known
but states that the Democratic candi-
date is comparatively unknown. Such
is the way the writer sees the coming
campaign. 1t plainly states all through
its conflicting lines that the Republi-
cans will win. AS to the facts con-
corning the political situation it plain
ly shows that the writer is taking his
data from Republicans, or that he has
dreamed of such results. The writer
must be hustling for the Republicans,
and If so, why don't he take Off his
mark of nonpartisanship and come out
in his true colors?
