The late Everett B. Webster, former president of the National Steel and Wire company of this city, in his will, entirely cut off his wife from all par ticulars in his estate, giving his for tune to other women. Mrs. Webster will contest the probating of the doc ument. MT Webster was well known here and this latest event in his noto- rious career will cause no end of com ment
 By the instrument the estate is giY- en to Mrs. Anna Sanders Rogers of Great Neck and Mrs. Mary Gubbins of London, England
 Undue influence and incompetency, it is understood, are the grounds on which Mrs. Webster will base her fight, which, it is said, will make pub lie many of the secrets of the career of Webster and his friends at Great Neck and Boston and the persons who spent much time as his guests on yachting trips. It is also declared that affairs at Hamilton, Mass, the home of the Myopia Country club, will fig uTe in the suit.
 Mrs. Webster, who is the daughter of prominent Lynn, Mass, leather man. ufacturer, left her husband about ] year ago at Great Neck and recently began suit for divorce The decree had not been granted when she learned that i he was seriously i'll at Jacksonville Fla. She started at once for that place arriving on Friday, November 29, fifteen minutes after he died.

200 MILES BEHIND
Breton's <spurt and Fall Mark Third Day in Grinding
 Race.

Madison Square Garden, N, T., Dec. 1l.-Eleven o'clock tonight found the relative positions of the riders in the six day bicycle race unchanged, des- perate sprinting by Breton to regain lost laps having proved fruitless.
 On one attempt to get away from the bunch Breton fell and brought Butt down with him.
 They slid down the board embank- ment and onto the flat floor, but neith- CT was seriously hurt Breton's fran tic efforts were bothering the other leaders considerably, and for time Fogler and Stol held him in check. He finally escaped, however and contin- ued his desperate tactics, to the immi- nent peril of the others on the track.
 Another huge crowd was on hand during the evening. The management raised the price of admission to one dollar but that did not result in any perceptible diminution of the throngs which passed in the Madison avenue entrance.
 At 1 o'clock, the end of the seven ty-second hour, the Folger- Moran and Rutt-Stol teams held their advantage of one lap, having covered 1,212 miles and 1 lap. The George -Dupre, Logan-B -Bardgett, Galvin-Wiley, Krebs- Vanderstuyft, and Downey- Downing teams were on even terms with 1.121 miles, with Lawson Macdonald, 1,211 miles. laps, and Breton-V -Vanonni 1.211 miles laps
 The record for seventy-two hours is 1,416 miles laps, made by Miller and Waller in 1899

COMPANY CONTINUES WORK.
Electric Vehicle Co.'s Receivership
 VIII Not Affect Employes.

Hartford, Dec. 11--There is to be absolutely no interruption in the oper- atlons of the Electric Vehicle company (exoept, few days for inventory) as q result of the reorganization of the com pany which is now going on, and of which the receivership is merely an in- cident.
 It's business is now in a better con- dition than ever before. and it's pros poets were never so good as now.
 Itis very well known, and has been known for long time, that the affairs of the compny have been for several years practically in the hands of the bondholders. During the long period of development a large investment of capital has been necessary This work has been substantially completed, and 1t Is only necessary now to provide a sufficient amount of working capital to enable the owners to begin to receive some return on their investment.
