JUDGE WARNER ON HAND
What He Has to Say About the Lewis
 Estate in WoOdbury.

Judge Arthur D. Warner of Wood bury, whose abrupt disappearance and protracted stay from the town were simultaneous with the an nouncement that a shortage of at least $15,00 had been discovered in an estate settled by him, returned to Woodbury on the 6:58 train Saturday night prepared to face the music.
 The estate passed through the usu- al processes, was settled up and re- corded in due form. Mrs Charlotte l.. Lewis, widow of George B. Lewis, inherited nearly all of the property and her estate is now in process of settlement. The disposition of her property was made known March 31, 1903, and among the various bequests wer $3,5O0 to the First Oongrega ton al church of Woodbury and $1,0OO to the Congrega church of Rox- bury. The remainder went to rela- tfyes.
 Judge Warmer saidi ''The invest ments made by one of the executors of the widows estate in Steel, Ameri- can Ice and certain bank stocks have depreciated in value so that 1t Is 8 question if the estate wdN pay the legacies of the will, the estate has been so reduced
 And I will say further in regard to the administratdo of the widows s estate that one of the heirsi under her husbands will, Norman Booth of Geneva. N. Y.. claims that he is about to bring a suit against the estate of Nh. Lewis for $20,OOO, alleging that at the time of MT Lewis's death his widow concealed property to that amount which never came into our hands as administrators.
 ''I do say that as far as myself and co-aldministrator are concerned we ad- ministrated on every dollar that came into our hands and did it honestly and faithfully If I thought there was anything due the estate I should re. store it independently of any legal techincalities, such as the omtlawing Of the claim"

During the past two months he has fortified all the stra- Sgetfc positions around Liaoyang in a manner we'll nigh impregnable.
