I From a Stuff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES, Oct. 1!. (Special.) One of
tha stianKest cases ever presented to the su
preme court is likely to be decided by that
body at the sitting which begins next Tues
day. The esse invdlves an Ingenious at
tempt to cnlall an estate of millions of dol
lars, so that a vast estate will be built up
after the old European customs and- so that
the American law against such will be le
gally avoided.
In 1!13 F. M. Hubbell, who resides In Des
Moines and Is many times a millionaire. In
comuany with his wife, Frances Hubbell,
placed all his property In the hands of three
trustees, which consisted of Mr. Hubbell
and his two sons. The period of the trus
teeship was to last during the lives of Mr.
and Mrs. Hubbell and their sons and daugh
ters and during the life of two grandsons,
'and during th life of the survivor of said
persons and for twenty-one years there
arter." After that time the sestate Is to be
divided among the heirs and lineal de
scendanta of Mr. and Mra. Hubbell.
Tho property was divided Into classes by
the conveyance to tho trustees. All the
choice corner lots-In Des Moines owned by
Mr. Hubbell (ana there are many of them)
were scheduled In class A and designated
as property that could not be sold. Other
property, consisting of real estate on the
outskirts of the city, was scheduled as prop
erty that could be sold, and class C was
designated as personal property.
After this was all fixed up and the con
veyance of the property to the trustees
was recorded with the county recorder.
Mr. Hubbell started a friendly suit against
himself and all his children and living
heirs in order to test the validity of his
trusteeship "entailed property" arrange
ment,. This case 'was tried out In the
district -court and then appealed to the
supreme -court and submitted to the su
preme court at the January term. The
court has had time to consider the case
and Is likely to hand down a decision' the
coming meeting.
Involved in the case also Is a question
of the right of a trustee of property to
lease it for a period extending beyond
the trusteeship and when the trusteeship
Is Indefinite wjiether the property can be
leased for a period of ninety-nine years,
or beyond the life of the trustees.
Farmer In Protest.
Over fifty farmers have Joined In a pro
test to the State Railroad commission
against what they allege Is discrimination
on the part of the railroads at Max, Dion
and Hartley stations on the Northwestern
.and Milwaukee roads In O'Brien county. J.
K. McAndiews, who operetes an Independ'
ent elevator at Hartley, originated the pe
tition. He asserts he has had but-four cars
since September 1, and only ten since Au
gust 1. They allege that the railroads re
fuse to give cars at Max or Dion because
McAndrews, an Independent dealer, operv
ates the elevators there.
Find One of Banyan's Books.
With his marginal notes still legible, a
little thumbworn volume from the press of
1563 and once the property of John Bunyan,
was found among a lo! of books yesterday
donated to the Highland Park college li
brary. This valuable book was sent in a
package of books from an unknown friend
of the college and was thrown aside until
uncovered by Prof. Walter A. Athearn, who
was sorting the books. The flyleaves of the
book are filled with religious arguments,
questions and the answers, probably In
spired by the context of the book. The
author's name Is effaced from the flyleaf,
but he hasVwrltten of the horrors of the
Protestant persecution at the hands of the
Catholic church.
To Endow Pauora Church.
Arthur Reynolds, president of the Des
Moines National bank, and his brothers,
M. M. Reynolds of Panora, Ia., and
George Reynolds of Chicago, have today
announced their determination to settle
an endowment on the Presbyterian church
at Panora, Ia., because their father helped
to found It. The amount of the endow
ment will bo determined later.
Oil Concerns Refuse.
In letters to the executive council, C. V.
Chamberlain, secretary of the National
Petroleum company, defies the state of
Iowa to collect taxes against it and prom
ises to go into the courts and fight. With
It are several other oil companies. Tha
Standard Oil company Is about the only
concern with tank cars that does pay Its
taxes to the state. With the National
are thirty-five other companies, all of
which refuse to pay their taxes. The
direct refusal of the companies to pay
their taxes and the threats to use the
courts In their defense follows a volumin
ous correspondence on the subject. The
council will Instruct the attorney general
to proceed with what fegal measures are
necessary to collect the taxes.
Foaadatlon for Brewery.
Contractors are at work on the founda

dirt has been encountered In making the

Red Blood Well, we guess yes. Those
championship base ball scores are Inter

told that the contest Is between the Detroit
Tigers and the Chicago Cubs, tor the
world's pennant. Every game that hue been
played on every diamond In both the
leagues has been Interesting In Itself, but all
have pointed to the supreme moment when
the last Inning was played between the
champions of each league for the world's
pennant. A whole summer of sport Is be
hind it. Hundreds of columns In thousands
of newspapers have been devoted to ac
counts of the games. Tens of thousands of
"fans" have sat In the grandstand and on
the bleachers and yelled for the home
team till their lungs ached. A million dol

it won't be worth the cost. Let us excuse
