DAN RUSSELL TURNED DOWN By
MASSACHUSETTS COURT
- DECISION.
Will COTO HIGHER COURT
In Lengthy Decision Of Several Thous.
md Words Judge Decided Against
Dickinson's Man Right
i to Fortune.
.

Melrose Mass, April 12.-Dan Rus
sell of Dickinson. N. D., loses his seven
months Identity in the decision handed
down this forenoon by Judge George
Lawton of the Middleset probate
court.
The ranchman Is declared to be
"Jim' Rosseau, the French Canadian
from the Adrondacks, who disappeared
years ago.
The court room was in an uproar
at the decision. Thousands gathered
outside and when the verict was an
nounced it was greeted with Kisses and
cat calls Dan Russell and Senator
Simpson were calm under their terrible
disappointment.
The big ranchman stood up at the
end of Lawton's decision and as the
Judge swept out of the court room, his
sympathizers surged around. He was
carried on their shoulders into the
street and there cheered by the big
gathering.
In scathing words Judge Lawton,
branded as an imposter the Dickin-
son, N. D., the claimant to half the
estate of Daniel Russell, and dismissed
the three petitions alleged to have
been brought by Daniel Blake Russell,
after a record breaking trial of 1874
days.
Il have just begun to fight" was the
answer of State Senator J.. A. Simp-
son. N. D. attorney for the claimant
to half the fortune left by the late
Senator Russell, when asked If an ap-
peal would be taken to a higher
court. The reading of Judge Lawton's
decision occupied an hour and half
The decision was greeted with mur-
murs of dissents which caused the Off
GERS to clear the court room.
The Judge said: after all these
months of evidence conclude that this
vast conspiracy which was alleged to
have been arranged, and which en-
.braced the stealing OF postoffice stamps,

Imagination Of the counsel for the pc

or allegation. Professional detectives
t.avL collected evidence which must he
regarded as true The phot ,graphs,
which are said to be that of James
Rosseur, Of Massena, N. Y, must also
be regarded as genuine.
Neither the respondents (Messrs F,
G. Almy and VIM. c. RusselD nor their
counsel have been anything except hon.
est in their defense of the Russell es-
tate against an imposter, and dishon-
est claimant. And finally I find that
none of these petitions now before this
court were brought by Daniel Blake
Russell, but by one who attempted tc
lmpersonate him and defraud the Rus
sell estate, the petitions are therefor
dismissed.
Senator Simpson will have sixty
days to file petition for an appea

before the supreme court and trial be.
fore a jury probably next fall. In the
meantime it is expected that the
claimant from Fresno, Calf. will file
his petition in probate court and it i.
possible that it may reach hearing a
the end of six months.

The Balance of Power.

There are thirteen districts in the
country in which there is so even a bal
ance of probabilities that Success cam

resorting to mere guesswork These thir-
teen districts, i'm which the balance of
power of the next House will probably be
settled, are the following:

Democrats and Republicans Each
Likely to Elect 1879 Members.
DOUBT FELT AS TO THIRTEEN

The next House of Representatives will
be almost exactly in even balance. The
probabilities are slightly in favor of a
republican majority of two or three, but
ii is impossible to predict with certainty
at this writing which of the two parties
will organize the House.
This, in brief, is the result of the ex-
haustive investigation Of local political
conditions just made by Success Maya
zine among the membership of it's auxil-
iary editorial board of life subscribers.
Nearly fifteen thousand out Of the twen-
responded to the requests by Success for
this information in a clear, specific, frank
and most interesting manner.
There will be a large increase in the
democratic membership. but there will be
no democratic Landslide"
Extraordinary Closeness Predicted.
The progressive wing of the republican
party has come into power at the pri-
maries in a very large proportion of the
republican districts, while in many of the
districts where the stand-pat element re-
tains control of the republican machine,
the normal republican pluralities are so
large that the stand-pat candidates are
likely to succeed, although by greatly re-
duced majOrities. Both wings of the par
ty are now diligently engaged in their his
toric occupation of "burying the Ratchet"
In other words, the heretofore generally
expected democratic success in the closer
districts of the country has been put in
jeopardy by the nomination of more or
less popular inSurgent republican cam
didates. and information received by Sue
cess indicates that there will be little
reDIlhlican hOltiUR SUch districts
The extraordinary cloSenesS of this
coming contest is shown by the predic-
ton that 16S districts will certainly be
represented by democrats. and u more will
probably be democratic, giving a total
reas onably sure democratic membership
of 1S9: while the republican party will
certainly elect 1GS membrs and will
probably elect 20 more. giving a reason
ably sure total of 1S9-eXactly the same
number,
