the King two sons, the eldest of whom
she named Alfonso. The singer was
banished from Spain after the death oil

The terms of the will, however, APP
pear not TO have been carried out. and
the elest son of Nine. SAM secured the
services of Senior Mongues, we'll
known Republican lawyer and member
of the Chamber of Deputies, and was
said to be determined to have his claim
legally established at any cost.
The case was taken out of the civil
courts, whose competency was ques-
toned. and eventually was referred TO
the Supreme Court. The question OF
the competency of the latter tribunal
was then brought forward, with the
result that it has, as announced in the
foregoing dispatch. declared itself COM
petent to try the case.
The crown lawyers are said to nave
done everything possible TO arrange
settlement out of court and at one
time an arrangement appeared to have
been reached. but It now appears that
all the details of the scandal may be
made public, which is said to involve
the revelation of a number of remark
able details affecting the latter years
of the life of Alfonso XII.

1t is said that the forestry service
and the Colorado Cattle and Horse
Growers association have agreed to a
friendly suit to determine the rights of
man whose cattle. when turned loose
on the public domain drift on the for

focus by the refusal of Fred Light of

from the forest reserve or pay the
grazing fee demanded by the forestry
officials. Light claimed that he did not

denies the right of the government to

of the reserves until the reserves are
