 The New Law.

comparison of the text of the Ding

passed by the house and as amended
and reported from the senate COM
mittee on finance. In addition a
statement was furnished to each SEN
ator showing the estimated revenues
under the present law compared with
the amended Payne bill.
Mr.. Aldrich called attention to
these columns in beginning his speech.
The net increase from customs over
the existing law was estimated at
S11,666,748 for the Payne bill as
passed by the house, and $9,934,4 ,426
under the bill as reported from the
senate committee. In making the es-

1906 were used in attaining the COM

revenues for 1907 when the imports
were much larger, in arriving at the

while Representative Payne, chair

commenting on the tariff bill, Mr..

LETTER DOES NOT
CONSTITUTE WILL
Judge Fox Decides Against Mrs.
Gerard I'm Fight for Estate of
Horace NOyes.
WILL APPEAL THE CASE
Tive instruments PurpOrting to Be
Wills Have to Be Held Not to Be
Such by Court and Now Letter Is
Also Thrown Out.

After deciding some time ago that
neither of two instruments purport-
ing to be wills of Horace A. Noyes of
Laurel, were admissible to probate,
Judge Fox OF the district court, held
yesterday that the letter attempted to
be introduced as will, was also not
sufficient to constitute such.
The court denied the issuance of
letters testamentary to Sarah Gerard.
Through her attorney, Mrs. Gerard
Immediately filed notice of appeal to
the supreme court.
The action of the judge marks an
other step in the fight for the estate
of Horace Noyes. March Is, Sarah
Gerard filed petition asking for the
probating of an instrument purport-
ing to be Mr.. Noyes' will and making
her the sole heir. Another instru-
ment was later presented, which had
been executed year previous.
The judge denied the admission of
one instrument on the grounds that it
was not wholly written in the hand
writing of the testator, and of the
other because it was not signed by
the witnesses in the presence of one
another or the testator.
A letter written by Mr.. Noyes to
Mrs. Gerard, March 25, 1908, from
Thermopolis, Wyo., was then pro-
duced in which Mr. Noyes told the
woman that she would he his sole
heir.
This claim of Mrs. Gerard is being
contested by J. S. Noyes, who asks
that letters testamentary be issued to
Edwin L. Fenton.

Confident That Billings Is q Coming
City of Eastern Portion of State
Visited Here Five Years Ago When
Place Had $500 People.

Mr.. and Mrs. Charles r. Hall, who
have been spending the past week in
this city, the guests of DR.. and Mrs
o. B. Prickett, will leave this morn
ing for their home in Chicago. Mr.
Hall is superintendent, of the Chicago
coliseum, the great hall where the
Republican party held it's last national
convention.
Mr.. Hall was at loss to find words
in which to properly describe his as
tonishment at the rapid growth that
Billings has enjoyed during the past
few years. Five years ago Mr.. Hall
visited Billings, when the city con-
tanned little over $500 people. At
that time he considered purchasing
some lots as an investment, but final
ly decided not to. He says that now
the lots he thought of buying are in
the very best residence district, and
that he could have made much more
by placing the money elsewhere.
In order that he may not make the
mistake again, Mr.. Hall purchased
uuTlHS HIS SCdy III LHlS Guy, some 40
lots in the West End addition, and
he is expecting to make some good
money out of them.
You have the greatest little city I
have ever seen," said Mr.. Hall. "The
way you have grown has fairly ta-
ken my breath away. When I was
here five years ago the city limits
were only few blocks to the west
and for a time | seriously considered
purchasing some of the outlying land
in the hope that might some day be
able to sell it for small fruit farms
and five-acre tracts. There are now
many fine residences on that land
that l thought might be useful for
gardening, and so I have pinned my
faith to Billings and have bought 9th
er outlying lots. And don't think
will be disappointed, either"

BUFFALO CREEK
ROUTE SELECTED
New Burlington Extension to Connect
with Northern Terminal of C.
& S.-ChOOses Its Line,
LOCAL MEN PURCHASE
Controlling Interest in Greatest Cop.
per Mine in the West on Strength
of Road Being Built at Once Invest
$4,000 in Cash.

That the new extension of the Bur-
lington from Kirby, Wyo., to Orin
Junction, the present northern termi-
nal of the Colorado & Southern, re-
Gently acquired by the Hill roads, will
go by way of Buffalo creek, has been
rumored upon very substantial au-
thority; in fact the rumor is so au-
thentic that local capitalists have in
vested nearly 100000 in a copper
mine located on the new route. and
will put much more money into the
development of the mine and the pur-
chase of other property in the vicinity.
For some time the line of the extern
sion has been in doubt, Wind River
canon and Buffalo creek being the two
routes most feasible. A large party
of Burlington surveyors has been
spending the past few months in sur
veying the two canons, and have final
ly decided upon the latter as the bet
ter route for the new line.
Acting upon advice coming from
railroad men, Charles Bair, William
Rae and T. Smith of this city, have
purchased the controlling interest in
the Williams-Lumen mines, situated
on Buffalo creek, the deal having been
closed the latter part of last week.
Over $4,000 cash was paid, and the
company will at once proceed to de-
velop the mines, which are said to
be the greatest copper deposits in
the west. The building of the road
will furnish the company with di-
rest outlet for the ore, which has
heretofore not been mined to any ex-
tent on account Of the distance of the
mine from any railroad.
1t is said >that the road will not
wait until next year to build it's line
through Wyoming, but will begin
work at once, and preparation for the
extension of the line is already being
made at Kirby, the Wyoming terminal
of the Burlington. During the mean
while the Colorado & Southern is
building cutoff from Fort Collins,
Colo, to Cheyenne which will give the
road it's own tracks from Wyoming to
Denver. Property values along the
line of the new road south of Kirby
have already doubled in value, and
the building of the road will mean
the development of much fine agricul-
tural land, as we'll as the completion
Of the last link of the Hill system
from the Gulf of Mexico to Seattle.
