 tween Tsyers and Smith.

Hamilton Mass, Oct. 16,-Five well contested matches in the invitation golf tournament at the Myopia Hunt club to-day brought the event almost to the finals with Walter J. Travis of Garden City as one of the survivors. Darkness stopped an exciting match between Eben M. Byers of Pittsburg, the na- tional champion, and W. P. Smith of Philadelphia at the 18th hole this after noon and the playens will continue their contest tomorrow morning, the winner playing Travis a S6-hole match for the trophy.
 The best contest that reached deci- sion was that between Travis and w. c. Chick of Oakley in the afternoon which the Garden City player won on the last green The surprise was the ease with which Byers put out Hugo R. Johnstone of the local club in the morning round, 5 up and to play.
 Smith put out T. c. Stevenson of Myopia in the morning play without difficulty, but Travis found Arden M Robbins, his club mate from Garden City, a strong opponent.
 The best match of the morning was between two Boston players, W. C.. Chick of oakley and P. W. Whittemore of the Country club, Chick winning or the 17th green ? up and to play.
 Summary:
 Myopia invitation, second round: W. P. Smith, Philadelphia, defeated T. C.. Stevenson, Myopia, up 4 to play.

STILL DEADLOCKED.
Republicans of Fourth Senatorial Dis
 trIct Fail to Nominate.

Hartford, Oct, 16.-The republican delegates of the Fourth senatorial dis trict, who failed to nominate at their first session after i5O ballots had been taken, met again here to-day and as expected are deadlocked.
 The candidates are Franklin H. May berry of East Hartford and s. H. Will Hams of Glastonbury.
 The Williams delegates attempted to seat Henry Field of NeNington, who was elected at the town meeting, but who was represented in the convention a week ago by Oln L. Wetherell, but the Mayberry delegates held together as they had done on every previous vote taken in the convention, all eff forts on the part of the Williams dele gates being fruitless. Marc S. Chap man told the delegates that during the recess he had consulted Senator Bulke- ley and Mayor Henney, and it was their opinion that delegate, who was represented by proxy, had the right to revoke the proxy at any time and take his seat in the convention, and Mr. Chapman moved that it be the sense of the meeting that MT. Field be seated. A tie vote resulted and the motion was declared not carried.

CONTENTS OF PAPER
 TO REMAIN A SECRET
LITTLE DOCUMENT THAT HALT I'D SIXTY MILLION DOLLAR
 WILL CONTEST.

Secretary to Late Mir. Weightman of
 Philadelphia Declares That Having
 Served Him for More Than Twenty
 five Years He Sees No Reason Why
 He Should Violate His Confidence
 Now Because MT. Weightman Is Dead.
 Philadelphia, Oct. 16.-Much interest has been aroused as to the nature of the mysterious paper which halted the Weightman $60.000,0O0 will contest in the Orphans court yesterday. Edward T. Davis, the confidential secretary of the late William Weightman, said to- day:
 Before going into court yesterday l remarked to my wife, the will contest will not last as long as some people think; in fact it will end with my own testimony, if a certain paper written by MT Weightman, to which was the only witness, is still in existence, and in the possession of Mrs. Walker. This paper, if called for, and produced, will explain why Mir. Weightman made his daughter, Mrs. Walker, his sole lega- tee in his will of 1895, and so conclu- sively satisfy the attorneys of Mrs. Mister that no codfcil exists that they would most likely abandon the case. This proves to be the result.
 When asked what was written on the paper Mr. Davis said:
 Having served MT. Weightman for more than twenty-five years, I see no reason why I should violate his conf- dence now because he is dead"
 The attorneys in the case would not discuss the paper to-day.
 Mrs. Jones' Wister, who was the wife of William Weightman, a son of the millionaire chemist, but was remarried after the death of the younger MT, Weightman, instituted the suit to set aside the will of MT. Weightman, on behalf of her minor daughter. Under the terms of the will as probated, the entire estate was bequeathed to MT. Weightman's only surviving child, Mrs. Walker.

JUDGMENT SET ASIDE.
One for s1as,O 1000 Made for Mrs. 1neersolI
 Reversed,

Boston, Oct. 16.-A judgment for $lSS,OOO in favor of Mrs. Eva Ingersoll, widow of Colonel Robert c. Ingersoll given by a lower court, was set aside to-day by the United States circuit court of appeals. The judgment was given in suit brought by Mrs. Inger- soil to recover an amount alleged to be due for legal services by her hus- band in the settlement of the estate of Andrew Davis, the Montana mining millionaire. The United States circuit court found for the plaintiff, holding that the fact that the will contest had been settled by compromise did no re- lieve the Davis heirs who retained MT. lngersol from paying for his services. The court of appeals holds that Colonel lngersoll did not perform the services upon which his fee was contingent namely, the successful prosecution of an act to break the will.

Newfoundland Not Party to Fishing
 MOdus Vivendi.

St. Johns, N. F., Oct, 16.-Premier Bond in an interview to-day declared that the statements of the American press to the effect that the colony was a party to the modus vivendi is tissue of falsehoods. The premier asserts that the colony has conceded nothing, that she insisted upon her rights and had besought the imperial government to support them. The modus yivendi, he says, was concluded against the protests of the colony of Newfoundland and the government did not sanction any of the concessions granted Ameri- cans, but had exhausted every resource it could command in opposing the agreement, which attitude of firm op- position, he says, 1t does not intend to abandon, regarding the measure as de- rogatory to colonial rights and laws.
