The last viii and testament Of c. R.
Fulton was fled in the probate court of
Sedgwick county yesterday morning but
was not made public by Probate Judge
Wilson The provisions of the will are
known. however, by outside parties. and
they will be interesting TO most of the
people OF this city.
The viii was made on the Friday before
Mr.. Fulton's death. 1t was witnessed by
mir. S. B. Amiden and O. Z. Smith.
Mrs. Fulton was present when the tes-
lament was drawn up
It is understood that as soon as Mr.
Smith returns from the east the will
will be proved and entered for probate
No inventory has been made Of all the
property. but it is stated on good author
ity that the stock Of the store VIII reach
nearly 100000. The exact amount of in
debtedness against the estate is not
known.
Mrs. Fulton, the bereaved widow, has
not yet elected whether to accept her
rights under the viii or under the law.
It is thought by some that being IN
trained in business and its complications
she viii elect under the law, while by
others it is thought that she viii elect
under the viii in obedience to the evident
wisk Of her late husband.
The instrument will not be probated till
Tuesday morning, the court CONSIDERABLY
allowing Mrs. Fulton sufficient time to
definitely decide the matter
The first important provision of the
will It is understood is that the estate
shall be equally divided between the wife
and the mother Of the deceased. It also
provides that Guy Truax shah be ap-
pointed executor of the estate 10 serve
under $50. COO bond.
1t further provides that the clothing
store on East Douglas avenue shall be
run for period of ten years under the
direction Of Guy Truax, Bert Fulton and
Bert Truax. The receipts. it is under
stood the will provides shall be divided
share and share alike annually between
the wife and mother OF deceased.
Each Of the young men named in the
viii as joint managers of the clothing
store shall receive $500 each per annum
for their services.
The last important provision in this line
of interesting ones is that at the end of
the ten ears the store shall be sold TO
Guy Truax. Bert Fulton and Bert Truax.
for them to run as their own. The money
received from the sale of the store is to
be equally divided between the wife and
mother Of deceased.
It is said that Mr. Fulton did not alb
solutely believe beyond a doubt that he
was going TO die when he did
II is also said by friend of one OF the
parties present at the signing and making
OF the viii that the attorney endeavored
20 have Mr. Fulton make some slight diff
ferent provision. but that he would not
change his course of action on which he
had already agreed
The case in the probate court viii be
followed up with much interest, as it not
only affects the family of the deceased
but has something to do with the busl-
ness affairs OF Wichita.
It is said that the Indebtedness will
not amount to more thar S45. coo

Yesterday afternoon the merchants or
First street and on the corner of Main
and First street, were given a treat by
the appearance OF an Italian and his
monkey Every man stuck his head out
of his door TO take a look at the fasci-
mating couple who were surrounded con-
tinually by crowd OF little children.
The monkey was a small one and dressed
in the usual costume of performing
monkeys. He Jigged and waltzed and
two-stepped and cake-walked. He turned
a very perfect hit-fop One of the most
interested loo1ers-on was DR.. Pratt, who
on seeing this small animal was inspired
to compose this poem:
LAS I and my wife at the window one
day
Were watching a man with monkey,
Presently there drove by a broth OF a
boy,
Driving a stout little donkey.
Said I to my wife by the way of a joke;
There's a relation of yours in that
carriage
All. yes. she replied. as the dokney
she spied.

Affairs at Porto CabellO Have
Reached q Crisis.

Washington. Aug. 11.-Minister Bow
en- at Caracas today advised the state
department that the Germans intend to
land a naval force at Porto Cabello to
protect German interests there, which
are threatened by the uprising now in
progress The minister advised that we
follow suit. After conference between
the officials of the state and navy de-
partments. instructions were cabled to
Commander Nichols of the Topeka to
!, proceed from La Guaira to Porto Ca
bello and to land naval force In case
of attack. The Topeka has already left
for Porto Cabello.
The Topeka probably will reach Porto
Cabello, which is only a short sail from
Laguaira, some time today. The trouble
at Porto CabellO grows out of the up
rising that has cOnvulsed Venezuela fOA
some tine. 1t is directed against Pres
ident Castro and has kept the country
in a state of ferment for many months.
Minister Bowen recently sent word tha
President Castro was leaving for the
decisive battle with the insurgents. The
latter have been gathering strength at
Porto Cabello. Our consul at that point
sent word recently that tie lives OF
: some of the American residents, includ-
ing members OF his family, were i'm
perilled, and two of tie ladies of the
cOnsuPS family were taken away in a
government ship. Since then there ha.
been no word of critical condition Of
affairs, but the advices of today indicate
that crisis has been reached.

American Book Co. Case Appeal
ed to U. s. Supreme Court.

Chief Justice Doster, of the supreme
court, this morning signed the writ of
error in the American Book company
case. The signing of the writ was a
formality necessary in taking the case
to the United States supreme court.
The attorneys for the American Book
company filed the writ before the su-
preme court at Washington against the
state of Kansas and Galen Nichols, who
allowed his name to be used when Geo.
w. Crane brought the original suit.
When the United States supreme court
hears the case the fight will be upon
the right of the Kansas supreme court
to bar the company from doing bust
ness in Kansas under the interstate
commerce laws because the Bush law
in Kansas has not been complied with
The allowing of the writ does not
change the situation in the litigation.

BLOCKADE DECLARED.
Gen. Firmin Burns Up q Town
on His Retreat.

Washington, Aug. 1--Commander
McCrea of the gunboat Machias today
cabled the navy department that de-
facto blockade had been established by
the Insurgents at Cape Haytien- The
Machias is at her anchorage.
Minister Powell has cabled the state
department from Cape Haytien that the
provisional Wasquezl government OF
that Gonaives, Port de Paix, Petit
Goave and ST. Marie provinces are in
rebellion. The government troops cap
tured Petit Goave after strong resist
ance in which many lives were lost.
Firmin's troops in retreating from the
place set fire to and destroyed that
town.
NOTHING BUT RUINS.
Port au Prince, Hayti, Aug. 1.-THE
correspondent of the Associated Press
visited Petit Goave yesterday and
found that the town had been entirely
destroyed, there being nothing left but
homeless and are greatly in need Of
assistance. The greater number of
them have sought shelter in the Sim
monds factories near the town. The
French cruiser D'Assas arrived at Peth
GOave yesterday with provisions for the
sufferers and returned to Port au Prince
with 200 women and children and Is
wounded men. The authorities refused
to permit the Firminists to leave, fear
ing they would go to other points to
take up arms again.
Each party accuses the other of f1av-
ing set fire to Petit Goave, but the gen.
eral belief is that Chicoye, the Firminist
mander, resolved to destroy the
town when he saw that hee could not
hold it against the Fouchardists.
A Port au Prince dispatch on Satur-
day last gave news of the burning of
Petit Goave after an attack had been
made on the place by Fouchardists.
According to that dispatch, General
Chicoye, who is minister of the interior
in the Firminist provisional govern
ment set fire to the town and aban-
dOned it.
