SIMMONS
TRUST IS
TERMINATED.
Appellate Court Renders De-
clsion Regarding Final o.
visien Of an Old Estate.

An opinion was handed down this morn
ing in the appellate division of the SUI
preme court in the case of Edwin s. Ross
et AL VS.. Walter j. Eettleton ct al. This
bill was brought TO terminate the trust
under the will OF Nancy Simmons. which
was admitted to probate In the municipal
court, Providence, July IA Is6s.
The bill is To determine the persons
entitled to the trust estate in remainder
and to divide the estate among the per-
sons entitled 10 ii by means OF partition
proceedings. The property in question Is
the old Simmons estate on Weybosset
street, opposite Mathewson street.
A claim OF the will provides that all the
real and personal estate of the testator
be left in trust for the use and benefit
OF her granddaughter. Caroline w. Sim
mons. and the complainants contend that
under the clause, the equitable estate in
remainder, after the death of Caroline
w. did not vest until her decease.
The respondents claim that the equi-
table estate in remainder vested at the
time OF the decease OF the testatrix, in
all OF the children of Caroline w. namely,
Annie T., Carrie b. and William S.
Mason.
The opinion OF the court is that the
devise in question was not intended to
take effect in present. as TO the children
of Caroline. but was intended to take
effect in future.
The gift TO Caroline's children was con-
dtional upon their being alive to take at
the time of the decease of the mother,
and therefore, the equitable estate. In fee,
in remainder. did not vest in Caroline's S
children until IL vested in the living chill
dren at the time of her decease.
We, therefore decide that the estate in
remainder created by the clause in ques-
ton did not vest in the children of Caro-
line living at the time of the decease OF
the testatrix. but that IL vested in the
children of Caroline who were living at
the time of her decease; namely, Carrie
B. Mason and William s. Mason.
As IL is apparent that the active trus,
created under the will terminated upon
the decease OF the life beneficiary, Caro-
line w. Simmons Mason. and that the
persons interested in the estate in re-
mainder upon her decease became en-
titled 10 the legal estate and to be placed
in possession thereof free from any trust
the complainants are entitled 10 decree

the case, the new trial was granted and

TO get the Washington mill weavers TO
strike has apparently succeeded at last.
Practically all of the weavers I'm the MILL
stayed out this morning, only fifty of the
SO0 weavers reporting for work, IL is said.
This move Is the direct result OF the re-
fusal of the mill management TO grant tho
request OF the German weavers an ad-
vance OF 90 per cent and the abolition OF
the premium system.
sympathy with the Olneyville strikers
also influenced the weavers. The strikers
held "a mass meeting IN Music hall this
morning. al which plans for the future
were discussed. The meeting was an en-
thusastlc one.
II is probable that ali the weavcrs will
now demand 20 Der cent increase.
At the mass meeting of the strikers to-
day committees were appointed 10 look
after tho interests of the operatives
during the strike and an organization
with a president, secretary and treasurer
was effected.
Every effort will be made TO strengthen
the organization and the leaders say that
the local weavers will be able to stay out
all summer IL necessary.
Strikers who are I'm a position to know

two weeks without serious Inconvenience
on account OF the strike. since the weav-
ers are about 10 days ahead OF the burlers

covered yet, but the old miners are
continually prospecting and believe
that rich quartz lodes will ultimately
be discovered. The gold is believed
to have been ground from the Quartz
by glacial action and distributed
through the country and that is the
gold that is now being taken out. If
the Lodges are discovered Dawson will
become n of the greatest mining re-
gions in the world, as well as n of
the richest. s
There are many dangers and disap-
pointments in the gold fields, and even
after a miner has his cleanup made
and starts for home his difficulties are
not ended. Last fall two vessels
struck on the rocks on the homeward
route. One of them went down. many
passengers being drowned and all of
them losing the results Of their hard
work. One man lost $35, 600 in dust,
which represented the hard work and
savings of several years. The YES
sci on which Mr.. Mcdonald came down
with his seasons clean up struck be-
tween two rocks, and stove a hole in
her side. Luckily the rocks were of
such a nature that the vessel wedged
between them and did not sink. This
accident occurred about forty miles
from Vancouver and another vessel
came and took the passengers off.
