 Short calendar was disposed of by continuing all the motions to next week. The trial of the case of At torneys Kellogg and Rose of New York against Attorney E. F. Cole admins trator on the estate of the late Mrs Frances Smith, widow of Edward $. Smith of the Smith & Griggs Go of | Simonsyille. was then started. Attor- ney Byrne appeared for the plaintiffs and Cole for himself. According to the | evidence MT Kellogg was an old friend of Mrs Smiths father, who was con- i tractor. MT Kellogg made a speciality | Of municipal law and was counsel for I Mrs Smiths father in all his dealings with the city O. New York. In 1900 | Mrs Smith became very anxious re- garding her husband. She seemed to l have been in sore trouble and medi- | tated separation from her husband, for l on this matter she consulted MT Kel- 1 logg, inquiring of him what her rights ! would be to his property, his inventions and royalties, and the rights of their l child, a daughter. She considered her husband incompetent to take care of his business on account of his habits I and asked to be enlightened as to her rights under the several wills he had made. She knew that her husband $ brother, Richard, sympathized with her and suggested that MT Kellogg call upon him to inquire as to her rights in her husbands interest in the factory.
 A bill of particulars was introduced
 which showed the numerous consulta- tions about Mrs Smiths husbands af- fairs, her own private affairs and other matters. Witness called upon Richard
 Smith and finally, when he sent his bill for $150 to Mrs Smith she called
 upon him in his office in New York l some days later and said she thought it was too high. MT Kellogg said it
 was very low; he considered his ser l vices to her worth at least $250. She ] then decided the bill was fair and ad- l vised him to. send it to Attorney Cole,
 who was now administrator on the es-
 thate of Mir Smith, who had meanwhile died. Mir Kellogg sent his bill as di- I Tected and 1t was returned to him un- Epaid.

 thetic Strike.
 Chicago, March 21.-Coal teamsters have withdrawn officially from the steam power council and in future will refuse to be drawn into sympathetic strikes to assist fremen, engineers or other workmen. The teamsters claim that they have had to bear the brunt of most of the strikes called in the city recently, and that by so doing they are .injuring their own standing with their employers, and rendering service to other unions that are not in position to make any return
 The steam power council was organ ized with the unions of coal teamsters, engineers and firemen for the purpose of giving each other aid in case of members of either being involved in a strike. Some other unions have been admitted since the council was organ ized. but the coal teamsters have been the dominant factor.
