Deciding of Property Does Not De-
prive County of Revenue.
LAW CONCENTRATES TRANSFERS
VIII OF the Late Lew W. Hill
f. Filed for Probate and shows
small Portion OF Estate
Retained.

THE law includes any property trans
ferred in contemplation OF death, and so
the property that was decided by the late
Mr.. Hill to his nephews a short time be-
fore he died will be subject to the inheri-
lance tax the same as II it was held in
the name of the original owner at death, -
said County Attorney English last even
ing in refernce to the estate of Lew w.
Hill, which was filed yesterday In county
court for probate. The total OF the estate
as filed was $50. goo and the idea prevailed
among some at the court house that the
bulk of tho estate, which was decided to
the nephews, would escape the inheritance
tax.
,rhe Her Grand building alone was pub
lished as being worth 100000 at the time
1t went from the hands of Peter e. Her to
Mr.. Hill about a year ago.
The will has been filed for probate In the
county court and the date Of probate is
set foe August 10. All of the property.
amounting to about $4,000 personal
and sGo,0N real property will be left
in trust to John II. Hill, jr, a
nephew Of the deceased to be held in trust
for five years, after which it will be dl-
vlded equally among the five heirs. Two
brothers, John w. Hill, sr., OF Fairfield
Ill, and James H. Hill Of Sidney, Neb. ;
two nephews. Shirley II. Wilson Of Sidney,
Neb., and George r. Wilson Of Dallas, Tex,
and a niece, Miss Elizabeth Tholl of Garth
age ILL.,. will each receive a share. A petit
ton was filed Saturday afternoon by John
w. Hill, ST., TO have his son John w Hill,
jr., appointed special administrator and was
granted by the court, Monday morning
George Wilson filed poweE of attorney from
Shirley Wilson and entered a petition ask
ing to be appointed administrator, but the
granting Of the other petition previously
made a contest impossible. 1t is not known
whether the division among the heirs,
which led to the filing of the second petit
ton. will lead to any complications when
the will is probated.

STREET sWEEPERS ARE COMING
Council Rejects Bids Of waterloo
Concern, but VIII Buy
Machines Later.

Proposals for street sweeping machines
were rejected by the city council Monday
afternoon and the clerk was instructed
to readvertise for bids. James f. Briggs,
representing the Briggs Labor Saving spe-
ciality company Of Waterloo, Ia, was pres
ent AZ the meeting. but announced that he
would withdraw from further competition.
Mr.. Briggs sent one Of his machines to
Omaha on trial a month ago on a tentR-
tive contract. II did not prove entirely
satisfactory and another was sent and in
a demonstration Monday morning proved
satisfactory, according to statements Of the
street commissioner and Councilman
Bird .ez, McGovern and Brucker. II was
tried on brick, stone and asphalt pavement.
The comittee recommended that a change
be made IN the machine and to have but
one dust pan instead of three, thus short
ening the time Of dumping. The manu-
facturt r agreed 10 this change, but the rro-
posals were rejected, on the ground that
bidders should not ne given the opportunity
TO make changes after their proposals were
in.
The Loose-Wiles Cracker company was
given permission to erect a roof over the
Davenport streets TO protect goods In being
loaded onto the cars.
A comittee from the South Side Improve
ment club presented a request for another
fire engine house in the south part Of the
city, but il was rejected on account Of lack
Of funds. Tit statement was made that the
available funds are not sufficient to eduip
the fire engine houses now built.

HEIRS SUE FOR PROPERTY
AIIeGe That Father, Grandfather and
G.. A.. JosIyn Were Parties
to a Conspiracy.

Alleging that their father, grandfather and
George A. Joslyn conspired together fif-
teen years ago to rob them OF inherited
property of which they, minors. had no
knowledge, Clinton J. Sutphen and his sis
ter, Mrs. G.. r. Kiplinger, have filed suit
in the district court to recover real estate
amounting to $4,000.
The grandfather OF the two. Dewitt C.
Sutphen, and their father, Charles d. SUIT
phen, were joint heirs with the children
TO the will of Emily Sutphen, their grand
mother. filed In April 1893. George A. Jos,
Ign was alleged to ave held the property
in his possession illegally and suit was
brought in the district court to recover 1t.
Dewitt C. Sutphen and Charles d. SUIT
phen being the plaintiffs. According to
the recently filed petitions, Henry D. Esta-
brook, now OF New York, was attorney for
both parties md succeeded in arranging
a settlement out of court whereby the rea
estate was conveyed to Mr.. Joslyn for a
cash consideration Of $1,000. The petitions
say further that the property was really
worth much more and that the sale of II
TO Mr.. Joslyn was a conspiracy against
the minor heirs by which they were trlckcd
out of their rightful share in the inherit
lance. The suits ask that the decree of the
court granted in 1898 which gave title to
Mr.. Joslyn be annulled and that the right
full title of Mrs. Gladys e. Kiplinger and
Clinton JOY Sutphen be established.
