Supposed to Have Been Worth Four
Millions—Amount Stated by His Son a
Great Surprise— Lost Money In his
Newspaper Venture.
New Orleans, Nov. 10.—A Chicago
special says: Carter H. Harrison’s will
was brought into the probate court
Tuesday afternoon by William Preston
Harrison, the murdered mayor’s son,
and upon request of the latter, was
formally filed. It now lies in the safe of
the probate court clerk, sealed by Judge
Kohlsaat.
All that has so far been made public
is that in his request for the appoint
ment of an administrator young Harri-
son gave the amount of the estate at
$96J,0J0.
If this is all the money or property
accumulated by the late chief magistrate
it will be a great surprise.
Mr. Harrison went on Treasurer Kiel-
bassas’ bond for $3,000,100. It has been
the common belief that the late mayor
was worth at least $1,000,000.
It is believed by intimate friends of
the late mayor that he deeded much of
hie property to his two eons about the
time he took bis seat in the mayor’s
chair the last time. An o d and confi
dential friend of the mayor eaid tonight
that Mr. Harrison’s newspaper venture
had cost him many a pretty penny.

Chicago, Nov. 10.—It is said that
vhen the case of Prendergast, the mur-
derer of Mayor Harrison, is called be-
fore Judge Tuthill the assassin’s attor-
neys will ask for a change of venue.
They will argue that public sehtiment is
so strong against the prisoner that he
could not be given a fair, impartial trial
in Chicago or Cook county.
They will also, it is said, claim that
it would be almost impossible to secure a
competent jury in Cook county because

Disobeying Orders Causes Another Bail-
road Wreck.
Toledo, O., Nov. 10.—South bound
passenger train No. 36 crashed into
north bound freight No. 57 on the
Hocking Valley railroad, one and a half
miles north of Rising Sun, at 7 o’clock
last evening. The collision was due to
disobedience of orders on the part of the
engineer of the freight. A heavy fog
prevailed at the time and obscured the
vision of the passenger engineer. Four
were killed outright, they being L. H.
Jones, engineer of the passenger; James
E. Kerlin, engineer; M. Jones, fireman,
aid Express Messenger Jas. E Briscb.
A wrecking train was dispatched from
this city immediately upon receipt of the
information at headquarters.
SENSATIONAL ABDUCTION. much upon the closing of the business
houses; making a half holiday of the
afternoon of the 16th, as the members of
the various societies and organizations,
military and others, have signified their
willingness to turn out in the parade,
provided this is accomplished. It is to
ba hoped that nothing will be wanting
on the part of the business community
to lend their aid to the success of this
entertainment.
It is reported that Hitchcock intends
to come down in full force with the Hay-
seed band and are desirous of carrying
off all the prizes.
It is pleasing to note the interest
manifested by the musicians, some of
whom have tendered their services free,
and their loyalty is certainly commend-
able, coming from those whose living
dep nds to a great extent upon their
daily earnings; and recognizing the im-
portance of the occasion to our city, it is
believed that the people will appreciate
the same.
Commodore John Grotbgar, having
charge of the seining committee, is
using every effort to make the exhibit
one not only novel but entertaining and
interesting, and will add features to the
occasion to make it not only of interest
to our own people at home but to those
from abroad.

Tha Mother Was an Inmate cf a
House of Ill Fame and Had Pieced
Her Only Child in the Convent—Prom-
inent Parties Connected.
New O Lans, La., Nov. 10.—A sensa
tionul ftbluctioa of a child from the
Dominic m convent yesterday afternoon
has brought to light a pitiable story of
bl ghted lives.
H. A. Jester and Lena Brown were
married in Gonzales in eighty-six, Miss-
Brown being the d-ugh’er of the wealthy
herse owner, J. M. Brown, who wat-
kil'ed in a sensational fight with the
police, at the Garfield race track in
Chicago about a year ago.
A child was born to them and they
lived happily together till last January,
when Restard was called to Texas by the
death cf his father. When he returned
he was surpristd to find the houseclo ed
up and his wife gone with the child
She had fallen from virtue.
Testard started for the country,
hoping to find his wife and child, bu’
no trace was d’scovered of her until re-
cently, when she was found in a place of
easy morals in this city.
Testard came here from' Chicago and
met bis wife and endeavored to have her
ret irn to him and lead a better life. She
declined and said the child was ifi a
convent.
Mrs. Testard then entered a suit for
divorce and Testard Lft the city. The
suit was subsequently withdrawn.
A few da*, s ego Testard returned and
declaring that hia wife was irretrievab y
lost, be had a lawyer prepare a case for
divorce and a&ked for the assistance of
the court to prevent the removal of ihe
child from the convent.
Testard and friend and a lawyer went
t) the convent yesterday and while the
lawyer was seated in the parlor Testard
and a companion stepped around the
r -ar of the house and grabbed ihe child
and ran with her to a wal ing cab. The
lawyer ran out and grabbed the horse’s
bridle and asked the frenzied father to
return the child, but Testard drew a
knife and threatened to murder himself
and the child before he would go back.
He was finally induced to return to
the convent, but drew a knife Spain,snd
the sisters consented to let him taka the
child.
He left the city hastily last night for
Texas.
It is said he drew a kn:fe on the sisters
and charges will be preferred sgrinst
him in the hope of ge ting the child
back. Mrs. Testard reported the facts to
the police.

Two Men Who Intended Appropriating
the Sloop Volunteer and Making a
Trip to New Orleans—An Unexpected
Arrival Changes Matters.
This morning Sergeant Lee Ri’ey ar-
rested a young man named Tom Murphy
on a warrant sworn out by Captain
Sw’enson, charging him with disorderly
conduct.
The case was tri»d before Recorder
Johnson and Murphy fin-d $25.
Captain Swenson is the owner and
master of the sloop Volunteer and this
morning when he went aboatd of hi*
yacht he fo^nd Tom Murphy walking up
and down the deck and making himself
generally at home. When Murphy saw
♦ he captain walking toward the vessel
he made a break to get away, but Cap-
tain Swenson caught and held him un-
til a police officer was telephoned for,
who escorted him to the calaboose.
This morning Murphy testified that he
and a man known as Jack bad planned
to take the sloop to New Orleans and
when Captain Swenson arrived on the
scene, the man Jack was up town buy-
ing provisions for the cruise. With
in an hour the boat would have departed.
The police are now on the lookout for
the individual known as Jack.
Murphy was seen by Evening Tribure
young man and told the fo’lowing tale
concerning the affdr: “I bad planned
with a friend cf mine called Jack, I do
not remember his last name, to take a
trip to New Orleans on the sloop Volun-
teer. My friend told me it w7as all
right, that he had the boat and asked
me to go with him. I consented, and
this morning when I was getting things
in shape to make the
I was approached by a
who said he owned the boat and asked
me what I was doing aboard of her. I
replied that I had been asked to make a
trip to New Orleans by the party who
said he had charge of the shop and who
was up town buying provisions fos the
trip. About this time the man grabbed
me and I was brought to police head-
quarters.”
Murphy said his home was in North
Carolina and that he had been em-
ployed on the tug Louise, but left her
about two weeks ago.
Plenty of Prizes Coming In, But
is Cash They Want—Hitchcock W
Be Here in Full Force With t
Hayseed Band.
The bridge celebration committees re-
port that matters are now assuming a
more satisfactory aspect as regards fi-
nance. It is still to be regretted, how-
ever, that some of our more prominent
retail dealers, who are directly interest-
ed, fail to see it to their advantage to
contribute.
Volunteer prizes continue to swell the
list. Coal dealers are coming to the
front liberally. Mr. Hertford and C. J.
McRae, the live and enterprising coal
merchants, contributed a ton of coal
each. Dr. J. W. Wilson, the dentist on
Market street, comes forward with an
offer of a gold lined set of teeth worth
$50, for the oldest farmer’s wife cressing
the bridge. As the prizes are getting to
be very numerous, it wi 1 not be possible

Printer Attempts to Administer
Poison to Him.

Jackson, editor of the Cave-In Rock
(III.) Regis'er, came to the city and
fi'ed a complaint against his printer,
Herman Brill, charging him with two
attempts to poison him.
The boy admits his guilt, but alleges
that he was led to do so by a leading

Mr. Jackson and wife were both made
violently ill, but have recovered. But
