ing If he would ascertain If a young

father resided here and had writ
ten the young girls father who is

married but the attorney represent
ing the girls father wanted furthe
and more accurate assurance that a
wedding ceremony had been perform

such couple by Clerk Mann and

left to Mrs. Sage by a will made in

made TO Mrs. Fannie Chaplin of
Oneida, New York, an only sister,
who died two years ago.
The will is to be read at the home
of Mrs. Sage. at G32 Fifth avenue.
today and will be offered for probate
Immediately. 1t will undoubtedly be
contested by the Troy relatives of Mr.
Sage, who will charge that the 1891
Will was made after the mental
breakdown on the part of Mr.. Sage.
and Mrs. Sage exerted undue infiu-
ence over him on the distribution of
his wealth.
Not one dollar of the fortune is
left to charity. The only contribution
Mr.. Sage ever made during his life
time for this purpose was when. after
a years solicitation by Mrs Sage. he
contributed $4,000 to build a wing
of the Presbyterian hospital. of which
Mrs. Sage was vice president.
The fortune of Mr.. Sage which was
believed to be S1OO, ,0OO,-

of Wall street, amounts to only about

THEY WANT Mass MEETING.
Petition Being Circulated by Some
Citizens Asking that Mass
Meeting be Called to Dis
cuss Mountain
Water.

George A, Currie and others, who
are actively opposing the mountain
water proposition to be voted upon
on next Wednesday started in circula-
ton a petition last night which calls
upon President ]. S. Carnahan, of the
Chamber of Commerce, to call n
mass meeting for one evening this
week for the purpose of discussing
the various phases of the mountain
water question.
Up to this morning the petition had
the signatures of about 25 and in all
probability the mass meeting will be
called.
There can be no objection to such a
meeting from either the opponents or
those in favor of the proposition. The
open discussion of the position, by
those favoring the same and by those
opposing the same, can do no harm
but on the other hand will give each
side splendid oportunity to place
its contentious before the people.
1t is believed by many that such a
mass meeting will result in the maxi
ing of votes for the poposition II the
water committee of council goes be-
fore the gathering and makes state
ments as to what has been done, and
what is to be done.
