WHITE LOSES CASE.

Josiah J. White, who has been fight ing for a portion of his late wife's estate, would seem to have lost the last chance of participating in it. Judge Cleaveland of the probate court recently, in deciding that White was entitled to nothing out of the estate, also ruled that he could not appeal from the probate of the will. White brought mandamus proceedings in the superior court to compel the probate court to permit an appeal from its de- cision, and yesterday Judge Gager handed down his decision sustaining Judge Cleaveland.
 A hearing was scheduled yesterday on the application to have Mrs. Arthur F. Clark committed to Middletown in- sane asylum, the application being made by her stepson, R. Porter Clark. Judge Cleaveland ordered her placed in the care Of Dr. Skiff for a period of six months.

 In the superior court at Northampton, Massachusetts, before Judge Maynard and a jury, the Connecticut case of Nathan Kelman vs. The New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad com pany was very recently disposed of by the jury rendering verdict for the plaintiff to recover $1, BOO Kelnnan was injured at what is called the Hosford street crossing in Wallingford on the 11th day of January, 1902, and the plaintiff through his attorney, c. s. Hamilton of New Haven, brought the suit in Northampton, as trial by jury cannot be had in Connecticut in these cases.

TO HALT PURCHASE OF
SILVER FOR ISLANDS
Heavy Supply of Metal Now in the
Philippines Sufficient to Garry
on Business.

Col Clarence Edwards. Chief of the
Bureau Of Insuiar Affairs has an
pounced that no more silver viii be
bought for the Philippines after the
present stiDulatiOns with minis are full
filed
The Philippine commission has advised
Colonel Edwards against the purchase
of additional silver, as provision has
now been made for sufficient money to
carry on the business of the islands.
The islands have already been supplied
with 15.sS2.s50 pesos, and 1000, 900 more
are to be supplied. In addition TO this
there is 100000 pesos in paper money.
which Is soon TO be increased TO Zoo. 900
pesos. and IN the islands there is about
100000 pesos IN Spanish coin.
1t Is probable that the Philippine COM
mission will demonetizc Mexican dollars
on January /. 1904. but at the rate Next
cans are now leaving the islands it ap-
pears that such action will have very
little effect. For the first nine days OF
October 359.000 Mexican dollars have
been exported from the islands. and
none has been imported.

RICHARDS WORKERS
TURN UP GRAFTERS
Property Reported a Desert Stretch
Proves Excellent Farm
ing Land.

Grafters big and little have been re-
agents Of Governor Richards. Commis-
sioner OF the General Land Office, in
connection with the claims for desert
lands in Montana. The suspicious Of
the Office were aroused by finding that
the same man would make entry for
a homestead In the lands under the Great
Fails. Mon. land Office. and would then
apply for the adjoining property. under
the plea that it was desert land One
or two cases Of this kind might have
been overlooked. under the theory that
the homestead was on the verge OF the
desert. but when hundreds began to ap-
pear. Special Agent Chadwick was sent
to investigate.
Mr.. Chadwick has reported that the
lands claimed as desert lands are not
desert at all, but are excellent farming
land, and are producing large crops
without irrigation He says that in
order to show the system Of irrigation
required by law TO make the desert
claims legal. witnesses were called af-
ter heavy transforms or the melting OF
the snow, and shown the land with the
burrows and drains filled with water.
MrA Chadwick heads of this scheme by
showing that there is no stream In the
region from which water for irrigation
purposes could be drawn
Twelve townships have been with
drawn from entry in the region as a
consequence of the report Governor
Richards said that the grafters were
individual spectators. and, as far as
the Office has learned. are not working
ir the interests Of corporations.
