INQUIRY INTO MENTAL STATE

----
Wife Has Engaged Attorneys, and
Bitter Fight Is Expected Should
octogenarian : Declared
Insane

Ira Phillips, the octogenerian BRIDE
groom of a week. who was rudely torn
from the arms of his bride late Satur-
day afternoon and consigned to the IN
sane ward of the county hospital on a
warrant sworn out by his son, |. l.
Phillips, rested easily at the hospital
yesterday, passing almost the entire
day in sleep.
He had little to say to his attend
ants, and beyond complaining once or
twice about his restricted quarters,
passed his waking time glancing idly
about him.
His son visited the hospital during
the day to inquire about his father S
condition and held short conversa-
ton with him. Mrs. Mathilda Phillips,
the bride, was also a visitor, but as
her husband was sleeping when she
called she did not see him.
Mr.. Phillips will be taken into court
today and an inquiry made into his
mental condition. If he is declared in
competent he probably will be sent to
sanitarium, if not to the state asy-
lum, and then will begin legal battle
for the appointment of guardian for
his fortune, estimated at from $250,00C
to $500, 900.
Mrs. Mathilda Phillips has engaged
attorneys, it is said, and not only viii
make a bitter fight against her hus-
band being declared insane but against
the appointment of anyone excepting
herself, or some one she may select
as guardian of the aged man.
In addition to this procedure 1t is
said that If his father is declared al
incompetent 1. l. Phillips will begir
suit to annul the marriage a week
ago of his father and Mrs. Mathilda
Bennett,
