Bates filed a report In whIch he stated
that he was wllltng to turn over the assets
of the estate , which amount to $1.501-a note

1 for , special service , $50 lEgal attorney fees
I and 225 specIal attorney fees To the major -
J jor part or the report the heirs objected. In
I the first place they wanted the money , In-
I stead of a note They objected to both thl'
I 81Jeclnl fees.
Judge Baxter allowed the legal fees of $62
as an allowance for the admInistrator and $50 : ;
aR legal attorney feeR. lie refused to aI ,
: low the claim of $200 special fees , as he said I :
I that this money , from the evidence was
1 tisetl by Baxter In keeping ! the heirs of the
1' estate out of their money rather than In performing -
( forming his duties. lie refused to allow the
special attorney fees ot $225 on the ground
) that they were spent to get the money out of
' 3 11 banl , whl're It woulll have been safer than
In Bates' own hands.
' Judge Baxter turned to the condition of the
estllte. lie said that assuming that two
heirs had requested Dates to Invest the funds ,
I as he alleged , It he had properly performed
his dutIes he would have been cneful to In-
vest them In such a way that they would be
fUfl' Nevertheless , he turned them
Into the firm of Dates & Co. , which he must
have known was not solvent as he was Its
manacr. ! Therefore , Judge Baxter said
4 that he would hold Bates personally respoDsl- I
\ ble for the amount ot the ostate.

Spauhllng set out an entirely different state
t
of facts from those advanced by William II.
I Mallory In support of his petition for a re-
I straIning order to prevent them from using
I the name "Omaha Boiler Compound com-
I pany. " Mallory alleged that they were using
L the name > qlthout > any right ' ; and that as they
were manufacturing the same kind ot
clmllical as he they . were getting many of his
customers.
The defendants on the other band ! ! say
that In May of this year they entered Into a
contract with Mallory , by which It was
81reed that they were to run the affairs of
the Omaha Bollcr Compound cOll1pany from
May I. 189 : ; , to May 1. 1896. Mallory agreed
to turn over everything allli In return the
defenda'n'ts agreed to furnish the necessary
capital and' energy to operate the company
for a year. The defendants further allege
that they have stood by the contract but
that Mallory : has repeatedly broken It.
Therefore they ask that the suit be dismissed

The case of the Mlddleboro National bank
against James Richards and others was de-
eltled by Judge DUlllo yesterday In favor
of the fcndants.
The defendants In the suit were the bonds-
men of Richards & Co. , who were awarded
the contract of building the court house at
BlaIr The contract provIded that the contractors -
tractors should furnish material from the
1I6hn ManufacturIng company of this city
and gave as payment some notes , which later
came ' ! ! Into the possession of the plaintiff bank.
The contractors failed to pay the notes and
suit was brought against the bondsmen
fl'ho defense was made that one of the
bqrnlsmep Epeneer did not sign the bond
himself , but that his namt" was attached to
It without authority allli by his son. There-
fore the other bondsmen held that the bond
was not legal. although approved by the
Board of County Commissioners of Washington -
ton county , because they hud agreed to sign
It only on condition that Ep neter's name
was attaeheil.

torday and wilt spend a couple of days In
the city. The e bject of theIr visIt Is to
make a thorough Investigation of the asphalt
pavements and especially of the Calltornla
asphalt , of which they have never made a
trial In Mllwaukel' Mr. lIenzenbers Is the
president of the American Society for Munic-
Ipal Improvement and ranks as one of the
leading civil engineers of the United States.
Both of the vIsitors sent a connIe of hours
l In ' the - city I hall ' - yesterday , --vh-ere- , 'they
were entertained by Mayor : Demls , City En-
gineer Hosewater and the members of the
Board of Public Works. They were unchel !
at the Commercial club and In the afternoon
they were taken for a drive over the city ,
during which they will Inspect the Cllllfornia
asphalt pwements on Sherman avenue and
South Twenty-ourth street.
In spealdng of their visit Mayor Kocl
stated that there was a good deal of Interest
In Milwaukee at present relative to asphalt
paving. It was difficult to Induce property
owners to declare for the old expensive
asphalt and the result was that there were
scarcely five miles oC asphalt paving In
Milwaukee The Introduction ot the Call-
tornla product and the decrease In price
promised to give a pavemcnt that could be
used and It was the purpose. If they found
the California asphalt that hall been laId In
Omaha satisfactory , to open competition In
asphalt paving In Milwaukee , as has been
done In Omant. ! .

The plant which COttl $ 5OOO , has ben

that It Is the most colllpicto In alt Its appointments -
pointments and In thl' I excellence with
which the enahin.ory does Its work In the

by the statement , not only ot the asphalt

who have visited It. The whole process at
preparing the crude prD.luct as It comes from
the California deposits for spreading on
the streets Is here accompilshell under the
eyes of men of the most experience. The
careful work of g'tting sand and lime to
the proper fineness , proportion allll tempera-
ture Is done with perfat precision , as h
evidenced by the admlrablo'speclmen "t the
finIshed material which for a week has been
tickling the property owners along Sher-

Not only has the best hnpNve essentIal

plant 10 i 15,000 square 'aI'Js of paving material -
terlal dally.
Mr. Murphy built the mill to bo one If
the permanent establishments f1f the cIty ,
as he was confident that on a trial the California -
fornia asphalt would ba preferred to any
other , anti the excellence of the paving on
Sherman avenue Is consIdered the best of

City ElectrIcian Schurlg for a few minutes
Thursday night , feared that ho was about to
lose caste with the council mblne and the 1
thought was almost too mucl ! for him Thurs- '
day's flee contained an Interview with
Schurlg , In whIch he stated that In his opin-
Ion the electrIc lighting system of thc city
could be so rearranged as to afford better
light at a decreased cost. In another para-
graph attention was called to the lack oC
system which had characterlzell the location
of lights anti the fact that a political pull had
often been more potent ) In obtaining a light
en a certain corner than any real necessity
for the light.
It was late In the evening ! when Schurlg
saw the paper and he was at once possessed
by the fear that the members of the council
might believe that the lust paragraph' men-
tioned was also Inspired by him. He posted
out to the residence of Councilman Jacobsen
and aroused him to explain matters and as-
sure him thmat . he had never saId anything
that lefiectell on his motives. Jacobsen saw
the point and pretended to treat the mailer
seriously , and ) Schurl ! , was more than ever
alarmed. At the speclil council meeting Friday
night Schurl/ / was on hand with a long per-
sonal letter to each of the varIous council-
men , squarIng himself for his supposed of-
fense. lie assured the mem ers of his unbounded -
bounded faith In their Integrity and declared
that he had been grossly mIsrepresented. His
anxIety was then assuaged by the supposedly
Indignant memhers , who assured him that
they had read the article and hall failed to
find ! any strIctures on'theactlons ot the coun-
cil as coming from him , anti he was accord-
Ingly relieved.

Associated press Il was thought ' ; by many
of the politicians that the wtllllirawal of Senator -
ator Palmer from the race would Induce Governor -
ernor Altgol&l to announce himself. In thIs
they were mistaken Governor Altgeld let !
no room for doubt as to his Intentions
"Now that General Palmer has withdrawn
from the race for the ( senatorship next year , "
the governor was asked , "wll\ \ you bo a can-
dldato ? "
"No , " he replied , "a decent regard for the
proprieties forbids that any democrnt shoulll
make all effort to be elected senator In this
state next ) 'ear. All the dudes say , It would
be In bad torm. " _ .
"lIow Is that , governor ? "
"Well , " was the reply , "aside front the vacancy -
eancy caused by the death of Senator herb
the republicans have a IlIsjorlty of seventeen
of the hold-over senators , and conditions III
this state arc such that If wo were to sweep
everything berol us next year , as we did In
1892 , wo could not possibly get a majority ot
more than twelve or fourteen of newly elected
members , so that even If the Lord were to be
with liS next year , republicans would still
nave a majority of five or six on joint ballot (
Under these circumstances tt would look
greedy ' ; for a democrat to want place , and ns
