A. M. WILLIAMS & GO A: M. WILLIAMS & GO ANOTHER WILL FOUND Latest Sensation in the Fair Will Case PRODUCED IN COURT TODAY It Divide the Estate Almost Equally Between Fair's Bob and Two Daughters--Where It Has Been. San Feancisco, March 18. The con tention in the courts over the millions left by James G. Fair developed another sensation this morning. When the case was called before Superior Judge Slack, a great Btir was caused by the introduc- . tion of what purports to be a later holographic will written in lead pencil on two sheets of legal cap paper. It was brought into court securely framed between two plates of glass by Reuben .Lloyd, who has been retained in the case by Mrs. Oelrichs and Virginia Fair, daughters of the deceased. This alleged " will divides the estate almost equally between the two daughters and Charlie Fair. It bequeaths a few thousand dol lars to certain orphan asylums, and makes no provisions for such a trust as the estate is left in control of under the will previously hied. Messrs. Angus and Crothers are two of the four executors named in the previously filed will. ' Referring to this alleged will, Attorney Lloyd informed the court that the document, according to its date, was executed three days later than the will previously filed He said he would prove that the existence of this will had been known to several persons, and that it had finally been found in the possession of a very estim able old lady, whose name Lloyd did not divulge. Lloyd said the old lady had , not produced it because she had read of f the other will being offered for probate, ' ""and had supposed that it- was a later document than the one she held. The fact that this new alleged will has been presented in . court by Attorney Lloyd would indicate that Charlie Fair and his sisters have joined forces . to contest the will of their father. The attorneys who represent the executors under the will previously filed, and of which the original copy was stolen, intimated very strongly that they believek this latest alleged will to be a forgery. The case was finally con tinued to April 2. The alleged will produced today be queaths to various brothers and sisters of deceased and their children about the same amounts as was left to them under the will previously filed. Under the first will the families of these brothers and sisters would acquire a large pro portion of the estate at the death of Fair's children, Charles, Virginia and Mrs. Oelrichs, but under the will filed today the brothers and sisters, and their families would receive only the amount of cash stated in the will and the bal ladce of the $40,000,000 estate could be distributed at once among the three children of the deceased. The Bait Was Dismissed. Washington, March 18. The supreme court of the United States today dis missed a bill of the state of California against the Central Pacific Railroad com pany, involving possession and control of the water front of the city of Oakland, for the reason that it was not a case in which the court had had original juris diction. The court holds the city of Oakland and' the Oakland water-front company not being parties to the suit the court ought not to proceed in their absence. But even if they were- present and included within the scope of litiga tion, the court could not exercise original jurisdiction, and the bill is therefore dismissed. The effect of this decision is that the state must renew its litigation in another tribunal of which the supreme court of the United States has appelate jurisdiction. Harlan and Brewer dissented. They held if the supreme court would not ex erise its original jurisdiction, in this case it was difficult to see where it would do so. - Highest of all in Leavening Power. Latest U. S. Gov't Report Justice Field read a brief statement to express regret that the controversy be tween the state and railroad company, owing to the limited jurisdiction of the supreme court of the United States, could not now be heard and finally de termined, for the controversy would seriously effect the interests of both un til it was so determined. He expressed the belief that by proceedings begun in the state courts and reaching the supreme court of the United States by that route the state would speedily find means of ending the controversy. The Dropping; ofthe Bnlt Was Expected- Oakland, Cal., March 28. W. R. Davis, who represented the city of Oak land in the water-front suit in Washing ton, says the dropping of the suit by the supreme court is an advantage to neither and is merely what was antici pated. During the hearing last Decem ber the justices gave several plain inti- j mations that they were likely to take this course. Attorney-General Hart commenced this suit against the advice of the attorneys for the city, who did not believe it could lead to anvresul. There are now in court three other water front-suits, two of which are under submission before Judge McKenna, of the United States circuit court, and one before Superior Judge Ogden- De cisions in these may be expected soon. and whoever loses will certainly appeal so that the water suit in a proper form will get into the United Stati-s supreme court again before a great while. A W oman la lynched. Omaha, March 18. A special to the Bee from Butte, Neb., says: Mrs. W. E. Halton, of Key a, Paha county, was found dead in her house last night by neighbors. Her body was lying on the floor with a piece of rope 10 feet long and a hatchet and hammer beside her. An autopsy Bhowed that she died of strangulation and also had been assault ed. The woman was living alone, her husband having been sent to an ineane asylum. It is supposed that the motive of lynching was to prevent the woman from giving testimony against cattle rustlers, as she bad been summoned as a witness. She bore a good reputation It was evident that she fought hard for her life and honor, as the bedding and clothing were torn and scattered around the room. - Export Taty Suspended. .The Hague, March 18.
