by Mr.. Orme included personal property of
the value of $5650O0 and real estate of the
value of about $500, 0o0
Inasmuch as children concerned and
the legal rights of the widow are involved
the executors say that the court should
construe certain language of the will and
especially determine whether or not a tes-
tamentary trust is created, and decide
whether certain securities belong to ths
six sons of the testator as a donation from
their father OF whether the securities are
assets of the estate to which the executors
are entitled in course of administration. In
that regard, the executors desire to be In
structed by the court as to their duties.

TO HAVE EXPERTS ON JURY.
Commissioners Receive Communication
From Labor Unions

In a communication signed by A. W.
Leeke secretary of Local Union, No. 90,
and by 7. ]. Nichols, secretary of Local
Union, No. H. received at the District
building today the Commissioners were re-
quested on behalf of the International
Union of Steam Engineers of the District
of Columbia, to make 1t a rule for the
coroner to select at least one practical and
experienced steam engineer as a member OF
his jury whenever 1t becomes necessary to
investigate the circumstances surrounding
a boiler explosion or any similar accident
in which a fatality occurs. The recent ac-
cident at the plant of the Potomac Electric
Light and Power Company was cited as an
example, and 1t was stated as the sense of
the unions communication that ''the hon
esty of purpose of the coroner or of the
gentlemen whom he selected to serve on
the Jury on November 8 Is not in the least
questioned, but it could not have been inim-
ical to the best interests of the citizens of
the District of Columbia or to the families
of those who were killed, had there been
steam engineer on that jury

Dor Is not to be the haven of refuge for
exiled bookmakers of Chicago. Sheriff
Dougherty of Lake county, Ind, yesterday
went the warpath and cleaned OUT
the Indiana harbor pool room. arresting
fifty men.
The raid was made in sensational form.
At the head of twenty-five deputies, with
drawn revolvers, the sheriff entered the
room. The room was filed with men and
all was activity.
When the sheriff and his men broke in
most of the men yielded because they could
see no way of escaping. The raid was I'M
expected. Only one of the men in the place
got away He leaped out of second
story window.
AS soon as Sheriff Dougherty had made
his roundup he called in Justice Homer
Ansley and court was convened in the pool
room
With dispatch the magistrate decided on
a fine of 5000 for each man. The names
were read off. the fines called off without
show of defense and the keepers of the
place came forward and paid the penalties.
Then Justice Ansley adjourned court and
the gamblers betook themselves to trains
for Chicago.
The pool room has been advertised ex-
tensively, but quietly, and train facilities
to the suburb have been provided over two
railroads.

PHILADELPHIA. November 1s.-Presi-

last night made the following statement in
reference to published reports that his or
ganization had applied to the national COM
mission for protection:
The Tri-State League has not applied to
the national base ball commission for pro-
lection, and for the present at least has
no intestion whatever of doing The
reports from Cincinnati that Mr.. Carpenter
of Altoona, Pa. had made overtures to the
commission may be true, but Mr.. Carpen-
ter has no connection with either the league
or the Altoona club The Tri-State has
never officially asked for protection, and
ripening plans for 1905 do not make 1t
look that it will take that step for some
time to come"
