the postmaster, inquiring whether thk
advertiser was reliable. He did not en-.
close any money, and few days later
received a letter from the postmaster
stating that It was a huge fraud. and
that Mr.. Smith had been arrested AMI
sentenced to year in the workhouse
at Detroit.
That many people were gullible and

Court Holds There Was No I'm

P. Bennett by Bryan
NO DECISION AS TO $4,000
Judge Cleveland Say. Court i. Not
Called Upon to Decide Whether the
Sealed Letter Bequeathed $4,000 to
Bryan Was a Part of the Bennett
Will.

New Haven, Conn, Nov. 6.-Judge
Cleavelsnd, of the probate court, today
announo ed he had decided there was no
undue influence by William ] Bryan
over the late Philo s. Bennett. in the
construc ton OF rhe latter's will, but
that the sealed letter, about which
there has been much contention, was
not incorporated In the will. He finds
the document was properly executed.
In his decision the judge says. 1T is
not the province Of this court in pro-
batting the will to construe it's provis-
ions.' Formal announcement of the
decree Is postponed until tomorrow by
reason of Bryan's absence.
In rendering his decision Judge
Cleaveland said:
II find the question of whether the
will was properly executed was not
raised find 1t was properly executed
and that the testator had sufficient ca
pacity. find there was no undue in
fluence by Bryan over Bennett. 1t was
claimed the sealed letter should be in
.corporaied in the will. l find that ref
erence In the will was sufficient as to
the sealed letter yet the language in
the document itself plainly Indicated
the will was executed before the letter
was written. There was in existence
before tie will was executed dupli-
cate of the sealed letter. That Is con-
sidered in support of the contention
that the paper was part of the will.

RAncHMEN DRIVEN OUT.
Settlers West Of Chamberlain Occupy
the Land,


the Land.
Sioux City, Nov. 6.-"For the next
few years the range country west of
the Missouri in South Dakota-at least
that portion west of Chamberlain-w!ll
be denuded OF cattle" said e. A. Sedg-
wick, a former merchant of Chamber
lain, but now ranchman in Layman
county. Mr.. Sedgwick was here with
Albert Anderson, Mat Matson, and
Mart McAndrews, disposing OF 1000
head OF cattle. which they bought Sat-
urday. Good crops in our country has
stimulated immigration. and the land
is being rapidly split into farms. The
new settlers raised bumper corn and
wheat crops In the reservation. and the
cattle men are selling of their stun.
We expect, however. that the condi-
tions will change. The past two seas
ons have been wet, but the ranchman
believes. SO far as the range country is
concerned that these conditions will
not continue to any extent. The boys
figure therefore, on laying of for year
or two. Most OF us are getting rid OF
our cattle-trimming the herds to
small bunch, which will be kept as z
sort Of nest egg against the day when
the good old times Of the free ranSe
will return"

Des Moines ministers are having
their share of trouble over the antics
of the Rev. F. c. Lonak, colored, who

the humane society, the police depart

paper men OF the city. Lomack Is in
trouble most of the time and succeeds
in getting nearly everybody else into
the same boat. Now the ministers want
to shut him out of their association
because of his general bad character
and the fact that he Is disturbing ele-
ment. but they find there Is no way to
do 1t unless they reorganize their assoc
ciaton and adopt rules that will keep
him out at the same time they are
hesitating about drawing the color line
and making rules that will put the poor
colored brother outside the pale. They
have. done some preaching about equal
ity and some of them think it wouldn't
look we'll to shut out colored man
by an arbitrary rule intended especially
to do that very thing.
