HEIRS FIGHTING
CAMP|LLO WILL
NUNcUPATIvE DOCUMENT is
CONTESTED
virst Case Of its Kind in the Legal
History of California Is
Being Contested
Bitterly

The now famous Campillo nuncpua-
tive will case, which is the first of its
kind in the legal history Of California
was advanced one step nearer to final
settlement yesterday when Judge VIII
bur In the superior court denied the
petition of Mrs. Guadalupe Liddell for
letters of administration.
This case has been before the courts
of Los Angeles for many months but
varied legal complications have set in,
and as result a bitter contest has
been waged between the rival heirs OF
the deceased.
When Mrs. Librada Campillo neared
the point of death she is said to have
declared Don Jose Mazet and her seven
illegitimate children as the heirs to her
estate.
Mrs. Guadalupe Liddell and Mrs.
Maria Orosco, daughters of the de-
ceased, contested the probate Of the
alleged nuncupative will on the ground
that it had never been executed, and
that the testator did not expire as a re-
suit of injuries from an accident, and
also that the death did not occur on the
day of the accident, as is provided by
the statute touching nuncupative wills.
A petition for letters of administra-
ton was filed by Mrs. Liddell as the
nominee of her father.
Later Don Joe Mazet filed a petition
asking the court to grant him similar
administrative rights in the estate of
the deceased.
Mazet contested the petition filed by
Mrs. Liddell on the grounds of alleged
drunkenness, lack of business exper-
ience and lack of integrity.
Yesterday Judge Wilbur denied the
petition for letters of administration
fled in the complicated estate by Mrs.
Guadalupe Liddell and set February
for further hearing in the case.
On that day Attorney William Craw-
ford, representing Don Jose Mazet, will
ask the court for letters of administra-
ton
The case is peculiar from the fact
that the legitimate heirs of the de-
ceased, by reason of the law relative
to nuncupative wills, have been denied
participation in the settlement of the
estate.

REMOVING MUD
FROM MCITYSTREETS
DIFFICULTIES THAT CONFRONT
SUPERINTENDENT
Deposit Of Years Must Be Removed
Before Gravel Dressing Can Be
Used-Alhambra Avenue
Needs Repairs

Street superintendent Hanley is dl-
recting special attention to the coat
ing OF mud that covers a great many
Of the unpaved streets of the city.
The work is one of great proportions
and Importance and will keep the de-
partment busy for several weeks.
superintendent Hanley said yester-
day: II could use three times as many
men as are at the disposal of this de-
partment. The condition we are facing
is not a new one. A great deal of the
deposit that lies upon the streets has
been there for fifteen years.
Some time or other this deposit must
be removed and there is no better time
to do the work than the present. 1t is
almost useless to throw gravel into
the mud and dirt that covers the
streets. In places this stuff is a foot
deep, and If gravel is placed upon it
the gravel will simply be crushed into
the mud, and in short time the street
is in a worse condition that it was
before the gravel was used.
Must Remove Mud
"It will take good deal of time to
remove this mud and dirt, but the time
and labor will be we'll invested. When
the streets have been cleaned we can
place a covering of gravel upon them
and they will remain in good condition
with ordinry care for an indefinite
period.
"The weather has been somewhat
against us. Last year at this time
about half an inch of rain had fallen
This year the precipitation exceeds
that of last year by about five inches.
The rain has been of untold benefit to
other industries, but it has had de-
terrent effect upon our operations,
81 have secured enough gravel to
hampra avenue formerly Mission road
to put that thoroughfare in passable
condition. This road is one of the prin-
cipal business arteries into the city
from a large part of the country, and
owing to the wet weather and mud it
has been practically impossible. The
worst part of the road is about a mile
in length in the vicinity of Eastlake
park. We hope to get that part Of the
road fixed up at once.
Fieueroa Street Bad
"That portion of Figueroa street be-
yond the Third street tunnel is also i'll
very bad condition. The construction
of the storm drain in that vicinity left
large amount of dirt in the streets
and the rains have scattered the soil in
all directions and made the street al
most impossible
1--WE are now making an effort to Sc
cure an unlimited quantity of gravel,
which we can draw upon as it is need
ed We will clean up the streets and
spread this gravel as rapidly as pos
sible.
"When this work has been accom-
plished there will be an Improvement
that will not only be appreciated by
the public. but that will be of per-
manent character. If the council can
see it's way to give us more help we
will be able to accomplish the work
that much sooner"
