Murnane Hears From Officer Relative In Franc. M. J. Murnane, of 82S Mission avenue, received word yesterday that his nephew, Lieutenant. David J.

CbartKe I Made That Woman's Dislike jBt Bon's) Wife CanseA Blm to Be Virtually Cot Off. " ' - Contest to break the will ef the late Sarah A. Ryman, whose ddslike of. her daughter-in-law caused her virtually to disinherit her son, opened before Coun ty Judge Cleeton yesterday It will continue probably all week. The estate, valued between 120.000 and (25,000, was left. In a will executed in 1904 by Mrs. Ryman, to the Portland Trust Company in trust for her son, Dayton. He was to have a life Interest In the income from the property, which at his death was to revert to Addice and Leroy Garfield, niece and nephew of the devisor, living ia Michigan. One of the provisions was that none of the income of the estate should be spent in any manner by which Mrs. Dayton Ryman might benefit. The will also provided that in case Mrs. Ryman died or was divorced from Dayton Ry- man, the son was to have immediate possession of the property. It appears, according to the asser tions of the contestant, that most of the property is in timber land, and the small profits accruing are dissipated) by the taxes. Only by the sale of part of the land and development of the rest can the possession of the property be profitable, contends Mr. Ryman. The contestant, who is represented by Attorneys Malarkey, Seabrook & Dib ble, attempts to break the will on the ground that Mrs. Ryman was mentally unsound up to the time of -her death in 1915 and at the time she signed, her will. Ipsane Jealousy of her son, which made her dislike the woman who came into the young man's life when he mar ried, is charged. An attempt will be made to prove that Mrs, Ryman wandered about city streets at night and spent large sums for horoscopes by which she hoped to learn the date of her daughter-in-law's probable demise. By ane of these she is said to have expected the young woman's death in 1907. TRUCK SLIDES INTO RIVER Driver Dazed as Machine Slips From St. Johns Ferry Incline.

Evidence of Empfoyera Compelling Workers to Use Permits and to Tnra Over Ordera Ia Presented. ' Stenographers and clerks in Port land who have been sending for liquor to accommodate their employers will be the subject of a grand Jury investi gation to be instituted today, an-, hounced District Attorney Evans last night. The probe will be rigid, and prosecution will follow when such facts can be established, said Mr. Evans. ' Both parties to the transaction can e prosecuted; the clerk for a tech- nical sale, the employer for the unlaw ful receipt of , the liquor. "It is not generally known." said Mr. Evans, "that a person induced by a friend or employer to lend his ,'name for booze purposes is guilty of crime. He la technically guilty of a sale of liquor. The ultimate recipient is equally guilty of unlawfully receiving the same. ".When the person for whom the liquor is intended gets the liquor at an express office under a friend's name, even when the permission of that friend is gained, he is guilty of per jury." , Members of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union visited Mr. Evans yesterday and reported to him specific instances of employers compelling stenographers to have liquor shipped to them for the employers' use. With these as a basis, the grahd Jury Inves tigation will begin today. At the present rate of output the United States refinery production for 1916 will for the first time exceed 2, 000.000,000 pounds.
