ISAAC B. BROWN ESTATE.

Hearing on the will of the late Isaac E. Brown, the oysterman, was contin- ued in the probate court yesterday for one week, as Attorney Ely, one of the counsel, was absent from the city. The will is peculiar one and leaves the widow, whom Attorney Ely represents, property about equal to what her dover right would be had her husband died intestate, and it is not believed that she will contest the instrument. The estate is worth over $100,O00. The will estab- fishes a trust which all the property is subject to- The trustee is Dwight w. Futile, of East Haven.
 The heirs, besides the widow, are the three sons and one daughter of the tes- tator. An unusual feature of the case is that all the witnesses to the will are dead. That is, two of them are known to be dead and the other one has dis appeared and nobody knows whether he is dead or alive. On this account Attorney Grove J. Futile and Attorney Charles H. Fowler have been called in to recognize the signatures of two of the witnesses, the lawyers having been

FOUGHT WITH HIS MOTHER-IN
 LAW.
Peter Fox Objected to All His Wages
 Being Spent for Beer

Peter Fox Objected to All His Wages Being Spent for Beer.
 Peter Fox, a city faborer, who lives at 9 Edgar street, was arrested yester- day afternoon by Patrolmen Hyde and Gallagher on the charge of breach of the peace. The specific allegation against Fox is that he assaulted his rnother-in-law, one Maria Harrigan. The aolice of the Howard avenue sta- tion house say that Fox is an industri- ous and hard working man and that he hands over his wages to his wife. The police say that Mrs. Fox spends a great part of her husbands wages for beer and liquar for herself and her mother, who spends much time at the Fox home.
 Fox las been working on Townsend avenue recently and yesterday morn ing when he was ready to go to work he asked his wife for car fare to carry him to, his work on the other side of the city, three or four miles away Mrs. Fox said that she did not have the money, and that she had spent all of his wages which he had given her.
 This made Fox angry, but he started off to his work and walked the dist ance. He had previously told his mother-in-law to keep away from his house, but some one told him that she was still coming there and hiding in the attic when he was around.
 During the forenoon yesterday he got to thinking the matter over his failure to get car fare having reused his ire and he decided to go home unexpected ly at noon and see if his mother r-in-law was there.
 Accordingly he went home at noon yesterday and found Mrs. Harrigan at the house He ordered her out and words followed. The woman had a beer pail in her hands and this she threw at Fox, striking him on the head and cutting his face. He threw the pail back and this knocked him down stairs.
 By this time the two policemen ar rived and placed Fox under arrest. Mrs Harrigan was taken to the hospital late in the afternoon. She was somewhat intoxicated, but her injuries are of no consequence, consisting only of a cut on the forehead and a few bruises.
 The Foxes have six children, the youngest only about three months old. The house in which they live is in a deplorably dirty condition. and it. is probable that something will be done by the authorities towards caring for the children.
