John Craig Of quincy, Brother Of keo-
kuk Woman, Left Two Wills
and Beneficiaries to First
Refuse to Abide by End.
REMEMBERS
FRIENDS
Relatives Contend This is Not How
He Wanted His Estate Dis
tributed and big Legal Bat
tile Has Been Commenced

When John Craig Of Quincy, broth
err of Mrs. John W. Wheeler of this
city, died a short time ago he left
two wills. One will distributes large
sum of money among friends of the
testator, while the other document
leaves it all to the four brothers and
sisters of the deceased. OF tie con-
test the Quincy Journal says:
That the alleged will of the late
John Craig which is set forth as hav-
ing heen signed On April q, a week
previous to the death of the testator,
is not the genuine will of the late John
Craig, formerly of Liberty, but who
made his home in this city the last
few years of his life, is the contention
of the attorneys who have been re-
tanned to represent the beneficiarles IN
a former will, and which those attor-
neys maintain is the legal will and the
one by which Craig intended to distrib-
ute his estate.
The second will, the one that was
dated April 81, and the one that bears
an earlier date, were duly filed with
the county clerk, and the date for the
hearing of the evidence was set for
today, and this morning the will that
was filed first was taken up, when
the evidence of the two parties that
witnessed the signing of the instru-
ment was taken. Those who wit
messed tie signature are Rober.
Doerr and Louis MEME. According
to the terms of the will the four
brothers and sisters James Craig of
Chicago, Wesley Craig of this city,
Jane Ham of st. Louis and another
sister residing in Keokuk-are the
beneficiaries.
The attorneys for the beneficiaries
to the will that bears a previous date
are fighting the instrument on mum
Der of allegations The previous will
distributes a.slarge sum of money
among friends 81. the testator, and the
attorneys allege that this is the way
he intended to dispose of his estate
and that it was drawn while the tesla
tor had full possession of his metal
faculties.
A number of nurses We're brought
in from Blessing hospital this after
noon to show the condition of Craig
at the time Of his death and previous
to that time.
A large number Of attorneys are In
terested in the case and it promises
to be hard fought one. The lawyers
in the case are Attorneys Covert, u AN
caster, Wilson & Wall. yandeg enter
and Schlagenhauf and Coon.

President Miller Talks.

Had it not been for certain things
which made the railroads apprehens-
i've for the future said President
Earius Miller, recently, "the Burling-
ton would have increased the pay of
unorganized labor before this. AS
matters are now we fell like going
slow and not taking on any in
creased liability that is not a recessi-
ty. We recognize, however, the fact
that unorganized labor should have a
recognition every time that organized
labor secures recognition, no matter
how the increases in organized labor
ranks may be brought about. Several
of the organized branches of labor
have already been granted increases,
and it may be that we will wait until
we have finished treating with or
ganized labor before we take UP unor-
ganized labor. l am having complete
data prepared as to the number OF
employees that would be affected, and
as to the increased pay roll the com
pany would have to meet"
/ II is understood that the Burlington
now has about $4,000 employees on its
entire system, and that between 60
and 70 per cent of them are in organ
lied labor ranks. The increases, il
granted, will take in every office on
the system 1t is understood that the
Burlington's action will be followed
by similar action on the Great North
ern and the Northern Pacific, which
are Hill roads, and which have fully
100000 employees, large per cent Of
whom would be affected by the in
creases.

Munyon's Paw-Paw Pills are tonic
to the stomach, liver and nerves. They
invigorate instead of weakening; they
enrich the blood instead of impoverish-
ing it; they enable the stomach to get
all the nourishment from food that u
put into it.
These pills contain no calomel, no dope,
they are soothing, healing and stimu-
lating. They school the bowels to act
without physic. Price 25 cents.
