An interesting opinion was handed
down by the appellate court today In the
case OF Rhode Island Hospital Trust COM
pany VS.. Theodore n. Keith. Lillian f.
Keith and Edward u. Keith.
Mrs Elizabeth r. Keith died in this
city. July 2s, 1900. leaving last will and
testament executed oct. 96, 1898, and
codicil thereto executed July 2. 1900. The
respondents are children OF Mrs. Keith.
The codicil gave 10 the complainant q
legacy OF $4,000 10 hold manage. invest
and reinvest at It's discretion and as often
as once in six months pay over the next
income 10 the respondents share and
share alike and TO pay over on the death
OF any one OF the said children one-thrd
OF the principal to such person or per-
sons as such child should in and by his
last will direct II no will was made by
such child the share was To go to his heir
at-law.
Mrs Keith did not leave personal and
real estate enough to satisfy this legacy
and the trust company filed It's bill TO
have the legacy satisfied as far as possi-
bic out OF the real estate. The respondents
declare the legacy was satisfied by gifts
made TO them by Mrs. Keith.
IL appeared I'm evidence that after max
ing this codicil got anxious as 10 the
taxes her legatees interests would be sub
Ject 20 and divided her personal property
among her children. She understood there
was a United States tax and also city
taxes to be paid and to avoid taxation
took the course she did
Judge Douglas, who writes the opinion
of the court. says: I'VE think this pro-
ceeding indicated plainly enough an In
tention on the part Of the testatrix TO re-
woke the legacy 10 the complainant in
trust and the only question before us is
whether IL had that effect in law. If the
will and codlcil had been made before
the adoption OF the General Laws in 1885,
It Aay be doubted whether the equitable
doctrine Of a demption might not have
applied, but since the change In the sta
tute relating to ther evocation of Wills
has extended it's provisions TO bequests OF
personal property. as we'll as devises Of
real estate. we think II unnecessary for
us 10 thread the intricacies Of reasoning
on this subject. We need only TO con-
slider the effect of the statute
"The sixth section of the statute OF
frauds y car II cap. 3. made substan-
tiaQy with regard 10 the formal methods
TO be pursued in revoking devises OF real
estate 10 those which our statute ap-
plies to all wills OF personality as we'll as
realty. and the construction Of the for
mer statute as affecting the claim %
ademption OF real estate is pertinent 10
the consideration OF the question before
US"
The opinion concludes THE whole
foundation OF TIE defence here set up is
the presumed intention OF the testatrix
to anticipate her gift IN the will by her
distribution OF stocks 10 her children be-
fore her death. The statute is decisive
against such a contention.
"We flnd therefore that the COM
plainant is entitled TO the legacy In
question and after the exhaustion Of the
personal property IL Is changeably upon
the real estate"

FRENCH
MINISTRY
WANING

Paris, March 23-The belief steadily
grows that the Combes ministry may not

verses and II Is even said i'm high quar-
ters that a elimination OF the crisis is
likely to come next Friday. with the re-
tirement OF Marine Minister Pelletan and
probably all the members Of the present
ministry.
The committee having In charge the
inquiry into the status of the navy Is
expected 10 make it's report on that day
and this probably will arouse heated
controversy and bring on a decisive issue
as 70 the strength OF NJ. Pelletan and the
ministry as a whole
1t is understood that no final decision
will be taken pending the determination
OF this issue on Friday or soon there
after, but Il is the belief OF those hav-
ing the best means or obtaining inform
alton that President Loubet ia prepared
TO invite either VI. Millerand or NJ. Dou-
mer to form n new ministry in the event
OF the fall OF the old cabinet.

SERIOUS
STRIKE
IMMINENT

Lynn. Mass. March cs-Thirty-three
shoe manufacturers OF this city. who en-
ploy turn workmen today locked out The
men in this department Of their factories.
About 800 men are out OF work and the
outlook is that unless a settlement Is ef-
fected within a week or 10 days that
500 hands will be idle.
The present difficulty is the most
serious that has occurred in Lynn since
the fight between the Boot and Shoe
Workers union and the Knights OF Labor
early in 1908
While the present trouble Is due to the
strike OF turn workmen In three fac
tories over the question OF wages. there
Is a widespread belief that the lockout Is
part OF a plan adopted by the Manu-
facturers' association. looking towards
general REIMBURSEMENT OF wages.
The locked out men are, with few ex-
ceptions, members OF the Lynn branch,
No. g. OF the Shoe Workers Protective
union, which has its headquarters in
Haverhill This union is affiliated with
the Federated Shoe and Leather Work
ers. national organization closely re-
lated TO the knights OF Labor. The
Boot and Shoe Workers union, OF. which
John F. Tobin OF Boston, is president.
Is not involved In the present difficulty.
Earlier in the month less than 100 turn
woriCnen struck a. the factories OF
Cushman and Cushman, George w. Be
Tonga and company. and Timson and
company over a question OF re adjusting e
prices. Last week the Shoe Nanufac-
turers association. which numbers
among fits membership a5 OF the 40 manu-
facturers OF the city, decided 10 lock
out their turn men unless the strikers
in the three factories went hack. pend
| ing n settlement OF the difficulty by the
/ state board OF Cancellation and arbitra-
| ton.
| 1t was thought that danger OF a lock-
! out had been averted. but the Protective
! union declined to declare the strike of
| until further assurances were given that
! their demands would be respected. The
manufacturers imposed upon them con-
| ditions that factory owners I'm other cities
do not have 10 meet and that the higher
| prices they are compelled 10 pay place
them at a disadvantage with competitors.
There was no disorder this morning
when the men took their outfits out OF
the shops. All work I'm the turn depart
ments In the city factories are tied up
