TOPEKA WOMAN IS ONE.
Mrs. Harrison Clarkson Reputed Heil
to Valuable Baltimore Land.

There is reason to believe that Mrs.
Harrison GARRISON of 1927 Tyler street,
is one of the heirs to a large and val
liable estate in the heart of Baltimore.
title to which has been in question
since the big fire in February called at
tention to the fact that the owners OF
the destroyed buildings had held the
property under a 100-year lease which
had expired in 1898.
The estate, which includes $50 acres
in the business section of Baltimore. is
part of the property left by a Mrs
FulgTum Richardson who lived over 1OO
years ago and who is supposed to have
been a sister of Mrs. ClarkSOn'S great
grandfather Mrs. Clarkson's family
name is F'ulgrum. Her first infOrma-
ton of her possible claim to the Bal
timOre property came yesterday IN a
letter from a relative who lives in
Memphis. Tenn. and who has known
for years that his family had once held
possession of land in Baltimore
His father had been greatly interest
ed in the matter through frequent ap-
pcals from attorneys from all parts of
the courtry who wished him TO COM
mence litigation for the property. Re
Gently the newspapers having been full
of stories about the disputed title to
some OF the most ~Valua bic land IN
Baltimore the son has taken the mat
ter I'D and is writing his known rela-
tiVeS regarding it.
Mrs Clarkson thinks it unlikely that
she Will ever secure possession or her
share of. the estate. even if it should be
proven mat the Mrs. Fulgrum Richard
SON who owned it over 100 years ago
was an ancestor of hers, but as she is
very much interested in the family
genealogy and is in fact gathering ma
terial for a book about the Fulgrums,
the Baltimore claim will probably lead
to information which will be of assist
ance to her in this project. even if it
does not result in her inheritance of
a large fortune. The value of the
property in question is estimated at
from 100000. 600 to $4,000. OO0

San Francisco, March 26.-The result
of last nights fight was bitter dis

regarded the decision as unjust. When
Corbett reached his dressing room af-
ter the fight he burst into tears. He
said:

against Britt, the fight to come off in
three weeks, winner to take all.

AGAINST LONGS BILL.
The War Department Makes an
UnfavOrable Report.

Washington, March 26.-An interest
ing question has arisen in connection
with a bill introduced by Senator Long
CKan.) appropriating S1,50O.0oo for
Strengthening the Kaw river with view
to averting the usual spring floods
which have been so disastrous to the
people and property of that state. The
bill was referred to the war depart
ment for report and it has been re-
turned with a report made by General
Mackenzie. chief engineer, to the effect
that several years ago the legislature
of the state declared the Kaw river
unnavigable and authorized the con-
struction of bridges across it at vari-
Gus points, effectualy closing it 10
navigation. The point is made that
if the stream is unnavigable it is not
under the jurisdiction of the United
States and consequently an appropria-
ton made for its improvement would
be simply for the benefit of the state
and it's citizens and not for the benefit
of the general government or the peo-
pie at large. 1t is stated that the pro-
posed legislation will be opposed on
that ground.

GRAFT WINS AGAIN.
One More Effort to Lose Fast
Mail Appropriation Fails.

Washington, March 26.-The house
passed the Dostoffice appropriation bill
after a prolonged debate on the para
graph affecting rural letter carriers,
which was stricken out but which was
again inserted with enthusiasm under
a special order of the committee on
rules. Every amendment and substi-
tute offered to this paragraph was
voted down. Mr. Noon made an I'M
successful attempt to recommit the bill
with instruction to strike out the ap-
preparation for special facilities over
trunk lines south of Washington and
west of Kansas City.
The bill has been under discussion
since March z. At times members Wig
orously assailed the postoffice depart
ment and General Bristow, and de-
mands were made for an investigation
into the entire postal service, but
Chairman Overstreet. who has borne
the brunt of the attacks. stood as q
barrier to such action.

Cambridge won the toss and chose
the Surrey side of the river, though
under prevailing conditions there
seemed 10 be little choice either way.
The boats were sent away at .:o7
o'clock in a slight, drizzling rain and
very hazy weather. Oxford striking a
SO stroke and Cambridge pulling 30.
In trials held prior to the race itself,
Cambridge was generally regarded as
being superior in skill and oarsman-
ship. though oxford had the advantage
in weight and strength. The latter
were greatly handicapped by the ILL
ness of their president and by the ne
cesisty of making several other
changes in the crew.
