thirty Eight years incumbency.

Mr.. Seaman was determined TO pre-

his wife, Mrs. Maria 7. Seaman, VINO

Court Refuses Injunction,
BASED on Gossip and In

DENIES INFLUENCE
IN CANCER REQUEST
Justice Shearn Also Says Stories
of Rutherford's Drunkenness
Were Merely Assertions.

Holding that Bertrand L. Gulick and
the dozen other maternal cousins Of
the late Henry Rutherford who are at
lacking his will had not produced evil
dence that was "above the dignity Of
gossip and interested suspicion" JUS
tice Shearn yesterday denied an in
junction to prevent the distribution Of
the residue of Mr.. Rutherford's estate,
valued at s1,5O0,O00. He also vacated
the temporary injunction.
The residue was left by the testator
to paternal cousins, and the plaintiffs
are suing to set aside the will on the
ground of undue influence and lack OF
testamentry capacity. Neither OF
these is shown, Justice Shearn said, IN
the evidence presented by Gulick IN his
effort to restrain the executors from
distributing the estate until his action
is determined.
Frivolous and unfounded attacks
upon Wills, with their long-drawn-out
delays, bring no credit to the admins
tratiOn Of the law said justice
Shearn.
ton for an Injunction that Charles x.
/ Phipard, Of the Stock Exchange hrm OF
/ Whitehouse e. Co.; DR.. George L.
| Steele, an eye specialist, and MISS
, Edith Culver. a trained nurse, had un-
/ dulv influenced Mr.. Rutherford in the
making of his will. Among the be.
quests objected 10 was one of 100000
to the Rockefeller Institute for cancer
research work and for the furtherance
of a cure for the disease. Quick al
legged that this gift was made IN the
will of Mr.. Rutherford because son OF
! Mr.. Phipard was a physician connected
with the institute. Justice Shearn found
this allegation was not founded on fact
+ and. further, that IL was natura
thing for the testator to make this be-
ouest. as his wife and sister had beer
Z afflicted with cancer. The court also
held that assertions about Mr.. Ruther'
fords drinking habits were not borne
out
Justice Shearn said it should be men
toned. in justice 10 the persons
against whom the accusations were
made that there was no basis for any
of these, which were made by Gulick on
information and belief. "the grounds
for which do not rise above the dignity
of gossip and interested suspicion
There is sufficient answer TO the
charges, the justice held, in the fac
that the will was prepared by Mr.
Rutherford's attorney, under the direc
ton of the testator, who, with no othel
person being present at the time, gave
instructions as to the distribution o.
his 100000 estate.
Mr.. Rutherford left 100000 to Mr.
Phipard, and 20 Mrs. Steele, wife Of Dr.
Steele. and 20 her sister, $50 1000 each
Justice Shearn pointed out that Mr.
Phipard had long been a friend Of tn
testator and the two women lega;ee
were long friends of his wife.

TENDERLOIN LID

Conditions Again Becom-

Committee Says.
RAINES LAW HOTELS
REOPENING DOORS
Witness Beaten by Agents OF
SLAYER While Police Looked
On, Is Charge.

Assertions that the did" supposed
to have been clamped down tightly on
the Tenderloin had become so loosened
of late that conditions were rapidly
becoming as bad as they were year
ago. we're made last evening by the
chairman OF a committee appointed to
fight vice.
He admitted that conditions in that
section of the city were not quite as
bad as Ave years ago, when, TO use MS
own words, "vice and crime OF all sorts
were rampant" but asserted it was
only n question Of time when the Ten
derloin would be its old self in those
respects unless something was done.
MANY of the small, disreputable
hotels closed by the police a year or
so ago" he said, have reopened and
are catering to their old patrons. Some
of the owners Of these buildings, have
been given to understand, made YER
bal agreements with the District At
torney's Office that they would not per-
nit the premises to be used for hotel
purposes again, but these promises II
made, have apparently been forgotten"
The new vagrancy law, which goes
into effect tomorrow, is expected by
the vice fighters 10 lessen the number
of women on the streets. Under 1t ar
rests can be made of persons who loi-
ter in the public or private thorough
fares. It is not only one form of vice
that Is gradually livening up the Ten.

the excise law are also pushing the lid
inward. Violation of the excise law Is
especially active in the Raines law

ORCHARD AND GARDEN
NOTES

Set out a few elms for shade
about the home.
Look after worn spots on the
lawn. Manure them we'll and
spade deeply. Rake and SOW
grass seed.
Some of the Schizanthus hy-
birds are striking flowers. They
may be used as cut-fowers, and
always attract attention.
Golden Bantam is one of the
best early sweet corns. It is not
quite so early as Peep O'Day,
but is of better quality.
Set out a strawberry bed as
soon as the soil can be worked
and the plants secured. Senator
Dunlap is a good variety.
Arbor Day is a good time to
get the school children interest
ed in cleaning up the school yard
and planting it with shrubs and
trees.
If nursery stock is received in
a dry condition, thoroughly wet
the plants and either heel them
in or put them in cool, moist
cellar for few days.
A good lawn is secured bv
sowing a thoroughly we'll pre-
pared, rich soil with AZ pounds
of pure Kentucky blue grass, 5
pounds solid redtop, and three
pounds of white clover per acre.
Sow as soon as the land can be
well prepared, rake the seed in
well, and roll lightly.-LeRoy

ROAD DRAGGING RESULTS
Some Hints on Means and Meth
DDS of Getting Roads in
Travelable Condition

Illinois Highways, the official
organ of the State Highway
commission, prints the following
suggestions for profitable road
dragging.
Make a light drag.
Drive the team at a walk.
Ride on the drag, don't walk.
Don't drag a dry road.
Drag when road is muddy.
Drag, if possible, immediate
ly before a freeze.
Begin at one side of the road,
returning on the opposite side.
Always drag a little earth to-
wards the center of the road un-
til it is raised ten or twelve inch
es above the edge of the road
way.
Do not attempt to move very
much material at one time with
q drag.
If the drag cuts in too much
shorten the hitch.
The amount Of earth the drag
will carry can be regulated by
the driver, according as he
stands near the cutting end or
away from it.
When the roads are first
dragged after a very muddy
spell, vehicles should drive, if
possible to one side until the
road has had a chance to freeze
or partially dry out. The exer-
else of very little care on the
part of the users of the road will
do quite as much as the drag to-
wards securing a smother road.
The law provides a penalty for
any one who willfully ruts or
cuts up dragged road.
