Dayton, Ohio, Jan. Coroner Wal

Gilman, who was murdered the night

1t as his opinion that double crime
was committed, and completely ex-

both of whom are before the grand

the crime, are entirely without found

guilty of the murder and urges furth-

of New York.
WANTS HEARST I'M OFFICE
SUMMONS AND COPY OF THE
COMPLAINT SERVED ON THE
MAYOR BUT HE REFUSED TO
DISCUSS MATTER.
Publishers Press. ]

New YORK. Jan Attorney Cen
sral Jackson. on behalf Of the state of
New York. entered suit in supreme
sourt against George B. Mcclellan,
praying that the latter be ousted from
the office of mayor Of New York, on
the ground that he usurped and I'M
lawfully holds such office. and that
William Randolph Hearst is legally
entitled TO the same. 1t is stated that
this new proceeding has nothing TO do
with the QUO waDanto action which
was temporarily eSloined last week at
the application of Mayor Mcclellan.
A summons and copy of the com
plant in the action were served on
Mayor Mcclellan at the city hall. He
refused TO discuss the case.
One difference between this new
action and those that have preceded
il is that il is brought in the name OF
the people of the state Of New York.
whereas the others have been in the
name of Hearst.
In view of the precedence given in
the courts to actions begun by the
attorney general the suit will come
to trial at once and will be prosecuted
by Deputy Attorney General Donnelly,
with Clarence Shearn, Hearst's per-
sonal attorney, as special counsel.
Attorney General Jackson this action
will take the place of that on relation
of Hearst, further proceedings in
which were enjoined Saturday by SUI
preme court.

PLAINTIFFS CLAIM GOOD
RULING BY JUDGE FOX
Puts Liberal Interpretation Upon
the Will Of the Late Frederick Ha-
ner-Daughter Gets Reimbursement
Asked For.

BY the ruling of Judge Henry G.. Fox
liberal Interpretation is put on the will
of the late Frederick Haner. Judge
Fox overruled the demurrer by Attor-
ney John F. Robbins in the case of
Emma C. Haner against the estate of
Frederick Haner, thereby making
good the claim of the plaintiff 10 re-
endorsement for the outlay of money
for medicines, physicianss services
and burial, incidental to the sickness
and death of her mother, Charlotte
Haner.
The plaintiff is daughter Of the
late Frederick Haner, and during the
life time of her mother, Charlotte Ha-
ner, she cared for her. The plaintiff
at the death of her mother entered a
claim against the estate of her father
for $19425 for medicine and physi-
clans bills, also funeral expenses
which amounted to $1O4.75.
Attorney Robbins, representing the
Haner estate, demurred to the pay
ment of the funeral expenses on the
grounds that the will of the late Fred
erick Haner made no provision Ter
ial
When Mrs. Haner died her daughter
had the choice of having her mother
buried by the township or paying. the
EXPENSES out of her own income. She
chose the latter and paid $50 on the
S104 funeral bill.
Judge Fox in making his ruling
stated that there was no donot but
that Miss Haner was entitled to re-
cover the money she had paid out for
physicians services and medicine Tor
her mother, but that under strict in
terpretation of the will OF Frederick
Haner she had no right to recover
money from the estate to meet the
funeral expenses. However, Judge FOX
said he had no doubt that failure 10
provide for the funeral expenses OF
his wife in the will had been an over
sight on the part of Mr. Haner, and
that the court would rule on the case
with the belief in mind that Mr.. Haner
would have provided for this expense
had he not overlooked the matte.
