been pending in the court fer a long
number of years. The banking firm,
when it went into bankruptcy, was zone
of the most prominent in the State, and
it went down for big sum. Grant was
one of the chief creditors. The present
litigation, which ends with the decree
of yesterday involved thousands of acres
of land in West Virginia, owned by the
Maury estate. Some of this property
has been sold, hence the distribution,
which runs up this time hard upon thirty
to fifty thousand dollars.
Among those who draw upon the estate
are Messrs "A. w. Patterson and Eugene
C.. Massie, lawyers of this city, attor-
neys for the trustees and commissioners.
Mr.. Massie received a fee Of $500 and
Mr.. Patterson $1,000. The latter said yes

Legislative Gossip.

There was a decided lull and but few
striking developments in the judgeshlp
contests yesterday, owing to the fact that
the date of the caucus was fixed for so
late a time, and further that the con-
gressiona primary in the Fourth District
called so many of the leaders away.
Judge West went over to SWaverly and
voted for Ma or Lassiter early in the
day, and returned at once to the scene Of
action. Is
Mr.. Turnbull spent the day at his home
in Lawrenceville, where he went to vote
for Mr.. Southall. He is expected to re-
turn to-day.
Judge West was at Murphy's last night
and was in a pleasing mood. He and his
friends said they were confident of vic
tory. They claimed that the retirement of
Judge Rives from the fight had helped
Judge West.
The friends of Mr.. Turnbull had lost
rome Of their hope, and said they be-
lieved their candidate was growing strong
er every day.
The Jones' Garrett fight i'll the Thirteenth
appeared to be about in statu quo, and
both sides were keeping UP their work.
In all the other contested districts the
friends of the various candidates were on
guard. but the struggle all around was
rather lifeless last night.
] :
Judge Galloway Brown. Of the County
Court of Bedford, has retired from the
contest for judge of the new twentieth
circuit. The announcement was made
yesterday by. Hon. r. G. Turpin, of
Bedford, who has been working hard
for Judge Brown. Mr.. Turpin said his
friend had a strong following, but had
determined after due consideration to
retire. This leaves the field to Judges
s,F orI Nd u
Blair, of Montgomery, and the friends
of both have gone to work with renewed
energy, the Bedford delegation falling in
behind Judge Tucker.
It is being claimed by the friends of
Judge Tucker that the retirement of
Judge Brown greatly simplif1es the sit
uation. and that their favorite has now
the big end of the fight. This. however,
is not conceded by the friends of Judge
sBliar.
Judge T. r.. B. Wright, of Essex, came
in yesterday, and is at work among his
friends.
Hon. N. B. Early, Jr., is hard at work
for his friend. Judge White, of Abe

Messrs. Smith and Hobson. the Lead

It is likely that the Legislature will

resolution providing for adjournment
next Friday was adopted by the House
yesterday. though it may not go through
the Senate so speedily. The latter body
yesterday adopted resolutions calling up
the Committees on Courts of Justice

port what legislation is necessary to be
gone into at the short session.
