BRYAN CLOSES IN
 BENNETT CASE WILL
STATES HIS POSITION ON HIS CONTEST FOR THE s5o,-
 GOO LEGACY.
Case Argued on Appeal in Connecticut Court of Errors-Was Defeated in the Lower courts-contends for His Bright to Money.

New Haven. Conn, Jan. 25.-The Bonnet will case went to the court to- day with closing argument by W. J. Bryan, the contestant The courts decision will probably be deferred sev- eral days. MT. Bryan, referring to his personal interest, said:
 'I trust that the decision of this court will be so explicit that it will be instructive to those who hereafter draw wills, no matter what this court may think of the purposes of this be- quest. the right of man to make his property go to the perScn and for the purpose he wishes it is sacred to us all"
 The case is an appeal of Wm. J. Bryan from the decision of the Supe- rior court denying him the authority to receive the $50, 900 mentioned in the famous sealed letter left by the late Philo s. Bennett, Of whose estate Mc. Bryan is the executor.
 MT Bryan spoke eloquently for three-quarters of an horr. He said it was due him in this case to say few words as 10 the intent of the tes- tator. This intent, he thought, was very plain and he hoped the court would be explicit as to whether the sealed letter could be received as a declaration of trust, even if not a part of the will

New York. Jan. 25.-Not since the blizzard of 1888, by which all storms are estimated as great or small, has New York been so completely snow bound as it is tonight
 The city itself is lying under a foot of snow that in many places has been banked by wind to height of several feet.
 Surface travel early in the day was abandoned, overhead transit was irreg- ular and slow. and it remained for un- derground roa6s to carry home, so far as they could reach. hundreds of thou sands of workers from the downtown districts.
 Tonight the hospitals, police sta tons and houses of refuge are crowd ed to their capacity. More than one police reserve was called out to take care of crowds that were struggling around the entrance to some belated leTryboat which was seen to attempt another trip.
 SOoh after ' o'clock a bulletin was posted at the Grand Central station that no more trains were expected to arrive over New York Central dur ing the night This referred to both lOcal and express trains. Not a yes sel of any kinG has sailed from CT arrived at this port in more than 24

Washington, Jan. 25.-The House of Representatives today passed the Dis trict of Columbia and Military Acade- my appropriation bills Except for the speech by Mir. Baker. Of New York. bitterly assailing the protective tariff policy of the Republican party. the proceedings were devoid of interest.
 In connection with the consideration of the army appropriation bill, was an animated discussion today ;n the Senate of assignment of Gen. Miles to service in charge of the Massachu- sets state militia. 1
 MT. Lodge criticised in harsh Ian. guage the provision of the army bill prohibiting awarding of extra pay or allowance to retired officers assigned to active service when they exceed those of a major on the active list.
 Lodge declared the provision was directed at Gen. Miles and was most unfair. Spooner, Platt and Money contended that enactment would have the effect of limiting salaries of all re- tired officers assigned to active duty Ito that of a majorship, regardless Of the effort to prevent assignment to service of general officers. and de- nOunced t as 'cowardly' Several amendments were suggested, but ac- tjon on them and on the provision went over for the day.
 Some two hundred pension bills were passed.
