Efforts Being Made to Secure a For
tune Claimed to be Due to Estate
Of UrieI Newman.
MAKES SOME UGLY CHARGES.
Geo. III. Newman. of Merrill. Claims That a
Large Portion of Kenosha County Es-
tate Was Never Accounted For.

In the county court today dispositions
are being taken from Judge Slosson in
regard to the settlement of the estate
of the late Uriel Newman who at one
time was regarded as one of the
wealthiest and influential citizens of
Kenosha county. The estate in ques-
ton was settled many years ago but it
has been opened by George Fl. New
man, of Merrill, who claims that a
large amount of the property of the es-
tate was never accounted for by the
administrator. Newman alleges that
from eighteen to twenty thousand
dollars is still due to the heirs of the
estate from the sale of certain lands
alleged to have been owned by the
former Kenosha county farmer.
When the estate of Uriel Newman
was brought into the county court for
settlement w. Il. Flett, one of the best
known residents of Merrill, Wis, was
named as executor Of the estate. The
estate was finished up in the usual
way and It was supposed that the mat
ter had been finally disposed of. A
short time after the final settlement
had been made George H. Newman
appeared n the county court and ask
ed that he be appointed administrators,
de bonis non, of the estate of his
brother. At this time Newman claim
ed that there was large amount of
the estate that had never been turned
over by the administrator. He alleged
that the portion in question was a
large amount of timber land in Lincoln
and Marathon counties in this state.
He alleged that these lands were never
considered portion of the estate by
the administrator. The administrators
has denied any knowledge of the al
legged undivided portion of the estate
and has asserted that the charges of
Newman against him were brought
for political purposes. At the time
the charges were brought the admin
istrator was candidate for a govern
ment Office.
The matter is now to be threshed out
in the courts of Lincoln county and a
suit has been instituted to secure some
decision in the matter. The deposit
tons of Judge Slosson will show that
the estate was properly administered
in this county. The suit has been
pending for number of years and
many of the leading attorneys in the
state have taken an interest in the
matter. It is thought that the case
will find final settlement this year.

sPEICHER SAYS TOMMY ROT
Oversser of Zion City DiscIaims Any Par
entage Of Young Milwaukee Man

entage of Young Milwaukee Man
Overseer Charles o. Speicher, who
is now in charge of Zion City, declines
to allow himself to be considered the
parent of certain Milwaukee young
man who was in Kenosha Thursday
looking for daddy who, he alleged,
had been missing for the past seven
teen years.
Overseer Speicher, in speaking of
the matter this afternoon, said that
there had evidently been a mistake as
he had found no trouble in showing
the young man that he was not and
could not be his father. Brother
Speicher characterized the whole story
as ''Tommyrot, and stated that there
never was any foundation for the boy
thinking that he was his missin &
father. The record of the Overseer is
plain, and seems to be entirely clear
from anything that would detract from
his present glory.
He is still ruling at Zion, and has ali
his children with him in that city.

} CREWS LAID OFF
Northwestern Trainmen Fail to Notice
Danger Signal at Mayfair and They
Are Promptly Suspended.
MUST LOOK TO PUBLIC SAFETY

Without noticing that the light in
the semaphore above the station of the
Chicago and Northwestern railroad at
Mayfair was not burning, eight train
crews passed the danger signal while
a high official secretly marked down
the mum bers of the trains. Eight con.
ductors, eight fremen and eight en-
gineers are now on an enforced vaca-
ton of sixty days.
The remarkable test was suggested
by the wreck that occurred on the
Pere Marquette railroad near Grand
Rapids, Mich, on Dec. %, and by de.
cision of the company to throw the ut
mosi safety precautions about its pat
rons.
Shortly before O'Clock last Satur-
day evening an official of the North
western road appeared at the station
in Mayfair. The Office was in charge
of the night telegraph operator,
81 have extinguished the light in
the semaphore and / want the number
of the trains that pass without the
crews coming into the Office to report
it." said the official.
"Who are your" demanded the oper-
ator.
A card convinced the operator that
it was an order he had better obey
without further question. Then the
visitor took his position behind stove
where he could not be seen from the
window.
According to the rules of the com
pany a light that is not burning has
the same significance that a red light
or danger signal would have. The
light in semaphore above a station
according to the rules, must be no.
ticed not only by the engineer and
6remen, but also by the conductor.
The fact that the light was not burn.
ing, if noticed. would bring any train,
even with anysorders previously given,
to a standstilI, and the conductor
would not give the order to go ahead
until the train dispatcher haI given a
new release.
The station at Mayfair stands an
eighth of mile south of the crossing
with the Chicago, Milwaukee and st.
Paul railroad, It is on the east side
of the track. The semaphore light
is just above the roof line. Almost
directly across the track is a ''tower
light" operated by the man in the
tower house at the junction. Another
such signal is located almost at the
crossing. If these two lights show that
the crossing is clear, the trainmen
hitherto have proceeded without Civ.
ing especial attention to the order
board, or semaphore, though the rules
forbade this.

THE different towns of the county
have appropriated money enough to
make good start in road improve
ment if the money is carefully and IN
diligently expended. There is plenty
of time before work on the highways
can commence to form a County Good
Roads Association, and lay out gem
eral system of road Improvement for
the county as whole. Some compre-
hensive plan for general improve
ment of the roads of the county should
be made before dollar is expended,
for more permanent good can be ac-
complished with all working together
than by the several towns fritter;ng
their money away on temporary re-
pairs.

IT CAUSED A PANIC.
Passengers on Ken0sha Street Car
Terrified BY Mistake in Signal
OF Railway Men.
QUICK WORK SAVED A DISASTER.

Ten passengers on board a car of
the Kenosha Electric Railway COM
pany had an experience Wednesday
that they will remember as long as
they live. A mistaken signal given
by watcher at crossing came near
being the cause of collision which
could rot have resulted other than in a
great loss of life.
The street car which was on the
westward run, had approached the
crossing at Market street and had been
stopped by the closed gates. For a
time the crossing was blocked, and
then the railway men consented to
open up and let the Electric car
through. The gates were raised and
one of the railway men standing near
the track gave a signal to the motor
man to come ahead with the car. The
engineer in charge of the switching
train took this as signal to him, and
he at once began to back his train.
The street car had been started on the
track and it was impossible to go back.
The passengers in the car, seeing the
great danger to which they were ex-
posed, became panic stricken and at
tempted to leap from the car. The
motorman saw the danger, too, but
like hero he remained at his post
and threw the lever to rush the car
along at its fastest speed.
The engineer on the train discovered
the error in time and threw his whole
weight on the throttle to reverse it.
Just as the car had passed the cross
ing the heavy freight came up, and
| just brushed the back end of the car.
No one in 1t was hurt, but several Of
the women passengers were so badly
frightened that they suffered consider
ably from the shock.
The crossings of the two companies
have always been guarded with jeal-
GUS care, and it was thought that it
was impossible for such an accident to
happen. The conductor in charge of
the cara is relieved Of all blame in the
matter, as the trainman had signa1ed
to the motorman while the conductor
was in the center of the track watch
ing the switching train.

IN 1876 SECONDS.
Rhode Opera House Emptied In Compare
lively Short Time Last Night.

Il
Just 195 seconds was the time re-.
quired to empty the Rhode opera house
Thursday night after the conclusion Of
the entertainment given by Prof.
Flint. There was no alarm of FIRE or
anything of the kind but the manage
ment was curious to discover the time
that would be taken to get all the PEG.
pie out the house in case of trouble and
to this end men were placed at the ex
its to time the departure of the people.
The crowd was one that tested the
capacity ofsthe house and the galleries
were filed to the doors. AS soon as
the entertainment was over the crowd
began to move and in just three min
utes and arquarter every seat in the
house had been vacated and the doors
were being Locked for the night.
There was no rush of any kind as the
people in the theatre were not aware
that test was being made. Had there
been any effort to rush matters it is
thought that the opera house could
have been emptied easily in two min
utes.
All of the new exits were opened
Thursday night and big red signs we're
placed over the doors showing where
the exits we're. The exits on the side
of the gallery stairs are shown to be Of
great value and the house can now be
emptied in one-third the time formerly
needed. It is thought that the new
steel curtain which will be installed
next week will make the Rhode one of
the safest theatres in the state.
