DECLARED SIGNATURES FORGED.
Two Texans Testified In the Trial of
Attorney Patrick, In New York.

New York, Jan. 31.-When Re-
yesterday in the trial Of Albert I.
Patrick for the murder of William
Marsh Rice, he had for the tenth time
ruled out the admission of the Rice
will Of 1896, which the prosecution
has been trying to get into the rec
ord.
Following the evidence of Baker,
Norman S. Medium, who was again
on the stand yesterday, that the sig
nature to the assignment of Mr..
Rice's estate to Patrick was a forg-
cry and that the signature to the
1896 will was genuine, Joseph l..
Blinn, Of Springfield, Mass, a nephew
of the dead man. told of being sum-
moned to New York by Patrick AMI
said the latter told him that he
(Blinn) was to get 100000 of the es-
tate under the 1900, or Patrick, will.
Cross-examination Of Mr.. Blinn BY
counsel for the defense brought out
that there was AN arrangement Ly
which witness was to receive $4,000
from the Rice institute if the 1896
will were probatsd. Under this 1896
will Mr.. Blinn's share was $4,000.
Witness said that the arrangement
was in writing. 1t came from Colonel
Joseph Rice, William Marsh Rice's
nephew, and he (Blinn) had signei
the paper.
Emanuel Raphael, secretary and
manager of the Houston clearing
house and also trustee Of the Rice
institute, and Arthur B. Cohn, clerk
and agent of w. NJ. Rice at Houston,
testified. Mr.. Raphael told of the
plans for the Rice institute. He
swore he was familiar with Rice's
signature and that the signature on
the checks, the assignment Of the
Rice estate to Patrick and the paper
which revoked Captain Bakers right
to Rice's safety deposit box were
fOrgeries.
Mr.. Cohn swore the signatures 10
the 1900 will, the checks and the as.
signment were not genuine.

He Understood Perfectly.

A Georgia hostess, entertaining a
large party Of guests in her planta-
ton home, expected an English Lord
on a night train. While her jet black
George Washington" served her AmeS-
ican guests admirably, he had had no
experience with English titles.
Therefore, considering little in
struction necessary, Mrs. G. pro
ceeded 10 give II as follows:
George, Lord c. will be here for
breakfast in the morning. and you
must pass your tray to him first, and
say, My lord. will you have so and so?'
After going through the formula sew
eral times, George was dismissed look
ing more than usually selfimportant.
When breakfast was announced
George was in his place, his face shin
ing like polished ebony and his eyes
like full moons. When the guests
were seated George hesitated a mo-
ment, then a dash at the guest of
honor with his tray and burst out:
Good God Almighty, viii you hab
some o'dis?"
