HOPE TO FIND HEIR
BY MARK IN WATCH.
Charles Hills Fortune Still
Held Up.
AMERlcUs HEIRS ARE HOPEFUL
Public Administrator at Los Angeles
Hopes to Dispose of Case BY March
18TH. Next-Marks In Watch May
Play important Part.

he fact that there is an Americas
claimant to the Cnas. Hill fortune of
$142, 900 held by the public admins
traitor of Los Angeles, Cal. and the
further fact that this claimant proba-
ably has the strongest rights of any
one, render this case of continued in
| terest here.
However, a conclusion as to the le-
gality of the many claimants has not
yet been determined.
Judge James A. 4ixop, of Americus,
went to California in July last and af-
ter making full investigations there
was more convinced than ever before
that the eccentric Charles Hill once
resided in Americus.
And, furthermore, that his grand
niece here was the rightful heir to his
large fortune.
Savannah has four claimants to the
Hill fortune and their claims are being
gotten in shape to be presented at
Los Angeles in March mex, when it
will be positively determined who will
share IN the estate. There is not the
slightest doubt as to the identity of
Charles Hill.
And Judge Hixon will look after the
claims of his fair client there.
Hill, it will be rem en- bered, died in
Los Angeles short time ago, leaving
an estate of $142, 900 cash, but no will.
The man left no papers by which he
could be positively identified, and the
officials, to wind up the estate, have
taken the repair marks on his watch as
last resort of identify ing the man.
The watch is Waltham gilt move
ment, No, 69O,771, Waltham case, IS

On the inside case the following
memoranda have been found, and 1t is
by these that the officials hope to
identify the man:

CHICAGO A SAFE PLACE
FOR THE STRANGER ALONE
Mayor Harrison Declares His City
Has None of the Pitfalls of Which
Bishop ThOburn Complains.

Chicago. H.. May 25.-"Chicago is one of
the few cities of the world in which a
stranger may walk anywhere he pieases
and not come to any harm providing he is
sober and attending to his own business.
Bishop Thoburn should have investigated
conditions little more thoroughly before
he picked out this city as an example OF
wickedness to be compared with good gov
ernment in Asia
This is what Mayor Harrison says in re-
ply to the statements of Bishop Thoburn,
the Methodist Episcopal missionary, before
the Senate Philippine Investigation Com
mttee. The clergyman, who has spent tor-
ty-three years in the far East. said that
everybody knows that man can't walk
the streets of Chicago at night and be
safe, while he can III Hong-konS.
1t is a common slur, the Mayor said,
based on insufficient knowledge and mis-
representation. a stranger Is safe in Chi-
cago. said Mr.. Harrison. and if he is, the
residents of the city ought to be. Police
protection is not needed by the wayfarer
who picks his way along South Clark street;
He can go W and down South Halsteai

stockyards district is not brlstiing Win

Milwaukee avenue nothing more harmful

The stranger can find trouble if he is
looking for it. said the Mayor, and Some
times he can find it if he is not guarding
against it, but so long as he minds his

would be in the streets of London or Paris.

go into all parts of London unprotected and
be safe He cannot go into all places in
Paris without police protection. There Is
no place In Chicago where he would be un-
safe so long as he tends to his business.
