| Judge Edward M. Burke held regu- 1 lar session of the Westerly probate court Tuesday. The will of Minnie K. | Miller was admitted to probate and as | the executors declined to serve, the i court favored at the request of heirs, 1 the Washington Trust company as administrator with the will annexed. | The will gives to the son, William F. ! Miller life interest in the estate for | the support of himself and family, and upon >his demise the property is to go to his wife, Mary E. Miller, and chil- dren. The case was continued until I July. when the administrator will be | formally appointed and the appraisers named. This action was necessary to permit of the legal notice being given. The first and final account of Mary A. Livingstone, administrative of the estate of Peter Livingstone, was re- ceiYed and approved for record. Louis E. York, administrator of the estate of Mary J. York, presented an affidavit that he had made diligent search and could find no personal property, therefore could make no in ventory. The affidavit was ordered re- corded.
 Minnie F. Lanphere, guardian of Madrilenus M. Card, made first account of the estate which was ordered re- corded, after examination. Amelia B. Young, admin1stratrix of the estate of Milton A. Young, petf- toned for an allowance from the estate
 
 the date of death, which occurred June 20, 1909. Such application is necessary to be made within one year from date of4death. The petition was granted The petition asking for a decree declaring that the estate Is probably insolvent and for the appoint ment of commissioners was continued until the next regular session of the court.
 
 -G council of Westerly, composed of Councilmen Burdick and CuIley, with Town Solicitor Agard in attendance. called all the police officers to the car Lanphere the officer on duty at Watch Hill. It was sort of coming g-to-an- understanding session and of course was secret.
 The enforcing of the liquor laws was supposedly the subject of discussion and the committee probably impressed upon the police officers on duty in the village of Westerly the importance of harmony in action. and a realization that the police committee is the direct ing power.
 It is quite probable that the ancient war cry of treating all suspected law violators alike was again raised and without consideration of the fact that all alleged violators do not do business alike.
 The police department has jurisdic- tion over all sections of the town of Westerly, and that includes Watch Hill, and it would be irnpolitic to treat all alike who are suspected of violating the liquor laws. Public sentiment in Westerly favors the present method of dealing with the liquor problem, al- though there may be instances that savors of persecution to the uninitiat- ed-
 The policemen presumably received whatever instructions were given them by the committee with good grace and the probability is that the instruction was along the same line that had been given public or in secret by former committeeman Westerly has a com petent chief and equally competent policemen, who know their duty, and have the courage to perform it.

ENGINEER HERE
GOING over Line
lnterurban Man Accompanies joI
SpiIman Along Route This
Afternoon.

Engineer Young Of Iowa City was a
guest of the interurban committee OF
the Commercial association this morn
Ing and accompanied by Major 7. P.
Spilman right of way agent of the
committee left this afternoon over the
line as far as Farson. The trip will
probably determine whether a new or
the old survey will be taken up in the
construction of the line. Four men will
be put to work by Engineer Young
in the morning and the line will be
gone over with view to making some
corrections in it's makeup The idea
in mind is to avoid cutting farms any
more than possible and at the same
time to obtain the most direct and
least expensive route available. The
interurban committee Of the CONNER
cial association is holding a meeting
this afternoon in the association s
rooms and going over the situation.
The results of the auto trip to keota
will be gone over and steps will be
taken to assist the engineer in his ef-
forts while resurveying the line.

same as they should on any course.
