PROPERTY GOES IN ESCROW

Andrew ]. w. Keating's estate, VAL
ued at 81, ,1oo, 900, soon will be placed on
the market for immediate sale, as the
result Of action taken yesterday when a
trust deed giving the property into the
control OF the Title Guaranty and Trust
company was completed.
This is expected to result in the dis
missal next week of the litigation
brought by Henry Keating, an heir,
who wants to foreclose his interest.
The real property involved in the &C
ton is situated in orange and Los An
geles counties. The heirs have made
an agreement by which the lowest
prices which will be accepted total 81
100000. The largest single piece OF
property is known as Bonita Meadows,
west of Los Angeles, for which S6OO,UOO
already has been offered, with the ex-
pectation that it will be accepted in the
next few days,
Less than a year ago the heirs to the
estate were willing to dispose OF the
property for 100000, Of which they
would have paid out $4,000 as com
missions.
Besides the real property involved In
the deed which just has been perfect
ed, Keating's estate includes personal
property valued at $150,000 ana bond
fngs in British Columbia estimated to
be worth S225,000.
Since the youngest of the children
reached his majority last December,
and the property could be distributed
according to the terms of the will
matters in the estate reached crisis.
Efforts of the trustees to sell the estate
failed, and since then the property has
become the possession of the heirs;
Then attorneys for the devisees worked
upon a plan for disposing of the prop
erty to the satisfaction of all heirs, the
result being the trust deed completed
yesterday.
Parties to the latter instrument are
Edward Heating and Hazel Keatng,
his wife; Alfred V. Keating and Helen
r. Keating, his wife; Andrew ]. W.
ILeating and Opal c. Keating, his wife;
Elvera Heating Forthmann and Albert
Forthmann. her husband; ]. Wiseman

neys: the Merchants Bank and Trust
company, trustee for some interests,
and ]. C. Steele, A. w. Mcpherson, Ben
S. Hunter, R. NJ. Miller and w. e.

of Henry Keating.

in the Chilean nitrate business.

POLICE ARE PUZZLED
BY PRISONERS POCKETS

SANTA ANA, Sept. pa. ]. Glenon,
Dave Harris and Frank Baker, arrest
ed yesterday on the circus grounds on
suspicion Of being pickpockets, were
tried in Justice Wilson's court this
morning on charge of vagrancy and
their bail fixed at $100 each. The men
had been thoroughly examined by Los
Angeles detectives after their arrest
and the sum of $95.05 was found on
the three, one of the men having a
secret pocket inside his trousers and
another having a pocket secreted in
his shirt bosom.
The surprise OF the whole affair was
sprung on Officer Hamilton as he es-
corted the suspects back to jail: AS
the Jail door was reached Glenon
handed Hamilton $50, saying: This
will furnish bail for me-" The men
had previously offered the $95.O5 FOR
the bail of one of them. Glenon was
released when he added the $50. But
where he got it is puzzling the officers.
