over the estate Of William Weight

man, whose estate is estimated to be
almost $60,00O,O00 Mrs. Jones Wister
was the wife of William Weightman,
Jr., and after his death she married
Jones Wister. The suit was brought

ence over the testator and that he
was of unsound mind when the will
was executed 1t is also charged by
Mrs. Jones Wister that a codicil MAX
ing provision for her children, Mr..
Weightman's grandchildren, was de-
stroyed.

SOCIAL LEADERS INVOLVED.

Own Pittsburg Houses Used for I'm.
moral Purposes.
Pittsburg, May 22.-The city ad-
ministration is determined to push to
the extreme the work of cleaning up
Pittsburg's moral side. Warrants will
be issued against several persons high
up in society who own half dozen
houses each in the down town district,
all of which are used for immoral pur-
poses.
Some of these, who are women,
have had large incomes from these
properties, as they all rented for $125
to $500 a month. The property was
left them by fathers and grandfathers
and has helped them maintain social
positions for years. They are said to
have been fully cognizant of the pur'
pose for which the houses were used
but overlooked that in view of the
handsome rental they secured.
In addition to these individuals the
officials of over a score of real estate
concerns are to be arrested.

GREATLY EXAGGERATED
Total Loss in Michigan and Wisconsin Forest Fires About
100000. Settlers Burned Out Now EStmat-
ed at Less Than Two Hundred

Marinette, Wis, May 22.-All dan
ger from forest fires is past. 1t is
raining and the wind has died out.
The loss everywhere is believed to
have been greatly exaggerated.
The A. Stephenson company at
Wells, Mich was the heaviest loser
and it's losses will not be more than
$4,000. Most of the buildings de-
stroyed were of frame construction.
The saw mills destroyed were all
small ones, worth not more than from
$4,000 to $4,000. The total loss in
the burned area will not be more than
100000. The number Of settlers
burned out has also been greatly eX-
aggerated. Some papers have placed
it as high as 1000. Considering the
way in which the northern country is
settled it is certain that not 500 have
been burned out and it is probable
that the actual number who lost their
homes Is not more than 200 and it
may not reach that amount. ~
The most damage is at Quinnesec,
Mich, a large town which was de.
stroyed, but the fire there was not due
| to forest fire but to bonfire in the
rear of livery stable. There are no
| woods around Quinnesec

RUPTURE IS AVERTED
Lower House Ignores Cars Refusal to Receive Delegation
:-.HQtheadS SucCOmb.- Convinced That Forced
Conflict Would be Fatal BIundef

st. Petersburg, May 22.-The threat
ened storm over the emperor's refusal
to receive the delegation from the
lower house of parliament, appointed
to present to him its reply to; the
speech from the throne, has been
averted The house during the after
noon adopted a resolution to proceed
with the regular order of business
and the discussion of the agrarian
question began. ..~
The moderate leaders Of the Consti-
tutional Democrats, after, laboring
with the hotheads until the early
morning hours, succeeded in convinc-
ing them that it would be fatal blum
der to precipitate a conflict upon a
false issue and resolution was pre-
pared pointing out that the impor-
lance of the address consisted in its
contents and not in the form in which
1t is transmitted to the emperor. Some
of the Constitutional Democrats frank
" expressed the opinion that the
house itself committed an error in ap-
pointing the deputation when the law
specifically provided that communica-
lions from the house should go
through the president. %s
d The emperor's action in refusing to
receive the deputation created much
popular excitement. The papers voiced
the fear that it meant q rupture and
crowds collected about the Tauride
palace before the opening of the ses-
sion of parliament While his mai
esty's, action is in strict conformity
with the correctness and Journalism
which have characterized his career
nevertheless his failure to seize the
occasion to meet the peoples repre-
sentatives directly is sure to produce q

icals in the house wanted to make his
refusal casus belli, but yielded to

st. Louis, where the case was tried
It was commended on behalf of Sen:
ator Burton that the fee was paid on
account of a criminal proceeding
against one of the members of the
Rialto company and not because Of
services rendered in the government
prosecution of the company. The law
under which he was prosecuted was
also attacked as unconstitutional on
the ground that the senate was the
sole judge of the qualification Of its
members, but this doctrine was not
upheld by Justice Harlan's opinion.
The statute was upheld in all respects
and held to be fully applicable to Bur
tons case. r.
Justices Brewer, White and Peck
ham united in dissenting opinion de-
livered by Justice Brewer. Their
opinion was based upon the theory
that the United States was not legally
interested in the case against the
Rialto company, in which Burton was
employed as counsel.
Immediately after promulgating its
decision the supreme court granted a
motion to give sixty days to Senator
Burton in which to prepare a petition
for a rehearing. The action will have
the effect of taking the case over ull.

October, as the present term will ex
