was sleeping quietly at s a. m, worn out
by the excitement Of a long day. Ligerals
and spectators have long since left the
streets. and the military and police have
had little 70 do for hours beyond driving
or occasional riotous bands of irrespon-
slble young roughs bent on window break
ing and marauding. and dispensing groups
OF too demonstrative Socialists or Liberals
returning from protracted meetings.
where their minds were fired with in
cendiary speeches.
Since midnight the Russian capital has
been as peaceful as it was the preceding
nights, but In the Palace Square and in
all the principal streets and open places
through the town bivouac fires are gleam-
ing and s71antry men sleeping near their
stacked rifles or marching hither ana
thither. Cavalrymen on wearied horses are
patrollng the long thoroughfares. No fur
ther firing has been heard. and no more
reports of collisions have been received.
1t is impossible even now TO estimate
az all closely the casualties OF the day.
The exact number of deaths probably
never will be known. No Americans were
injured.
The Cossacks rode down mad dispersed

CONTESTED WILL
CASE ABANDONED
No Attempt to be Made to
Break Phillip Richards
Will
ESTATE is VALUED At $4,000

The parties who have been contesting
the will of the late Phillip Richards, Of
Sussex county. have abandoned the con-
test and therefore the hearing Of the petit
ton for review Of the probate Of the will
will not be held in Georgetown today as
scheduled. This disposed Of a case which
has attracted considerable attention
among the attorneys Of this county and
also Sussex county.
Salisbury, Ponder and Curtis, Of this
city, represented the win and Robert C..
White, Charles W. Cullen, John w. Rich
ardson. Joseph L. Cahall and Frank l..
Davis, all Of the Sussex county bar, were
counsel for the parties making the con-
test
The total amount involved in the contest
was probably 81, ,0O0 The personal prop
lerty Of the deceased is valued at 5000 and
a farm at about $4,000 There were several
small legacles including a bequest TO At
torney-General Robert III. Richards. a rel
ative Of the deceased Of $500 and under rhe
will the remainder OF the personal prop
erty is left to a girl whom the late Mr..
Richards raised. The farm was also left
to the girl for her lifetime and at her
death 1t is to go to a trust for the benefit
Of the Episcopal Church at Bridgeville.
The estate is entitled to a collateral in
heritance tax amounting to Si0i6s6.
The principal grounds for the contest
was undue influence on the part of the
girl. who benefits so largely by the will
Counsel for the contestants tried 20 get
the case to trial before a jury but neter
succeeded.
The case was first before the Register OF
Wills Of Sussex county, but on account
OF him being a relative of one Of the con-
testants the register of wills was dis.
qualified and the case transferred 70 the
Orphans Court Of Sussex county, consist.
ling of Chancellor Nicholson and Judg,
Boyce.
When the case came up in Orphans
Court last December. attorneys for tn,
petitioners contesting the will, asked tn,
court to send an issue of the facts con.
cerning the validity Of the will for tria
in the Superior Court 81 Sussex county
before a jury at the next April term
without producing to the Orphans Court
any testimony against the will and with
out having done more than filing a petit
tion for review. This application was op-
posed by the executors OF the will, rep
resented by Salisbury, Ponder and Cur.
tbs, and the court decided that 1t wa.
the duty Of the Orphans Court to heal
the case in the absence Of any testi
mony, inasmuch as the preliminary duty
to hear such contest was with the register
Of wills. in whose place they We're sitting
and that it would be clear evasion o.
duty and responsibility if they should de
cline to hear the contest.
on application of the attorneys for IN
contestants the cast was postponed unit
today and now it is announced the con
test has been abandoned.
