Will of Miss Alice A. Burdick Estate Left to Providence Hospital for Free Bed—Man-. Hunter Held Under $2,500 Bond. Judge Edward M. Burke held regu- lar session of the Westerly probats court Tuesday afternoon, and the will of Miss Alice A. Burdick was admit- ted to probate. Before the court opened three ladies were in the loboy 2hd when they replied in the affirma- tive to a query if they had business with the probate court they were shown to seats in the court room. They left immediately and without ceremony after the will was read. Miss Bur- dick died in Westerly, where she had always lived, on July 2, 1914, The will was executed May 16, 1909, and wit- nessed py Nathan B. Lewis and Ber- tha M. Brow: After providing for the payment of just debts and funeral expenses, re- quest is made that the executor causs inscription on the family monument at River Bend, giving date of death of testator and her mother, and that markers be placed at their graves in keeping with the others in the family plot. The sum of $200 is given in trust to the trustees of the River Bend Cemetery association for the perpetual care of the family lot. The executor is authorized to sell all real and personal property, other tham cash, and convert same into cash. The executor mamed in the will is the Rhode Island Hospital Trust com- pany, represented at the court session by B. W. Gardiner, trust agent for the corporation. The ‘executor is directed to pay $4000 to the trusiees of the Rhode Island hospital for the purpose of a free bed, to be known as Willlam A. Burdick bed. The sum of $4,000 is to be paid to the Homeopathic hospital in Providence for a free bed, to be known as the Elizabeth A. Burdick bed. All the rest and residue of the estate goes to the Homeopathic hos- pital. There are no bequests to ihe town of Westerly or to any of the rel- atives or friends of deceased. The Rhode Island Hospital Trust company was confirmed as executor. It was estimated that the value of personal property was about $19,000. The court fixed a bond of $25,000, with- out surety, as the company is not re- quired to furnish surety bond under the laws of the state. Everett E. Whipple, Thomas Perry and Everett A. Kingsley were appointed appraisers. Albertus, Henry M. and J. Irving Maxson, executors of the estate of Ma- tilda M. Maxson, presented their first and final report, which was approved for record. Thomas L. Champlin, Jr., went man hunting Monday night and shot up a lumber samp located about midway ‘between Hopkinton and Rockville, but fortunately for all concerned Champlin did pot bag any human game. He is employed at the camp' as teamster for James Girard and went with a load of lumber to Bradford Monday after- noon. While there he imbibed freely of that which intoxicates and some- times makes mad, and when he return- ed to camp was in a fighting mood. He picked up a .row with James Gagnon and accused him of) stealing a dinner Ppail, with the result that Gagnon knocked Champlin down. ‘Champlin swore revenge and declared he would ®o to his home after his gun and kill Admitted to Probate—Bulk of and cooking utensils bore evidence of contact with shot. Joseph Bushee, whose home is a short distance from the lumber shack, came out and remonstrated with Champlin and urged him to cease fir- ing. Joe was greeted with a charge of Dbirdshot, some of them passing through hit kat but doing him no harm. Final- 1y Champlin departed for his home and the facts were reported to Constable Charles P. Ecclestone, who summoned to his assistance Ralph Briggs, and Champlin was taken to the Westezly police station. Champlin is about 50 years of age, and his wife, who appears to be about 70, and very feeble, arrived at the po- lice station early Tuesday morning and remained about the place all day. She was given courteous attention by the police and the janitors of the town hall and court house. Champlin was arraigned late Tues- day afternoon before Judge Oliver H. Williams _in the Third district court and faced two charges of assault with dangerous weapon and a third charge of mutilating a building with a shot- gun. He pleaded not guilty and was held in $2,500 bonds for trial at a ses- sion of the court to be held next Fri- day Henry E. Hazard, colored, the bicycle rider who ran into Elizabeth Mulligan at Narragansett Pier, knocking her down and fracturing her skull, from the effects of which she died 20 min- utes later, was arraigned before Judge Nathan B. Lewis in the Second dis- trict court Monday on the charge of manslaughter. He pleaded guilty. He was bound over for trial in the su- perior court for Washington county, September term, in bail of $5,000, which Hazard could not furnish, and he was committed to the jail at Kings- ton to await trial. A Norwich man was _arrested in West Warwick Sunday afternoon for driving an automobile in excess of the speed limit. He was taken into cus- tody by Chief of Police Andrews and when arraigned before Judge Felix Herbert in the Fourth district court pleaded guilty. He paid the fine of $10 and costs and was discharged. It was the fifth case of the kind to be prosecuted by the chief in three days and in each instance the accused pleaded guilty and paid the penalty of $10 and costs.

WAR MAY PROLONG SESSION OF CONGRESS. is No Deficit in Treasury to Call for War Tax. There ‘Washington, Aug 18—The war in Europe has materially altered the con- gressional situation. Not many -weeks ago administration leaders were ex- pressing the hope that the minority would restrain any filibuster against legislation, particularly the anti-trust programme, S0 that congress might adjourn in ample time for participa- tion in the fall campaign. The re- publicans, many of them also eager to get home for the political fray, promptly agreed there should be no fiibuster and that all would pull to- gether for early adjuornment. Putting Brakes on Legislation, Today, however, the adjournment prospect is eclipsed by multifarious issues and the democrats themselv are putting the brakes on legislation. Administration leaders, when asked about adjournment, simply throw up their hands and say: “Time alone can answer, we cannot adjourn while haif the warld is broiling.” Leg: e Pace Changed. The legisiative pace has been chang- ed from double quick almost to & mark-time schedule. Consideration of the Clayton anti- trust bill is not being hastened. Al- though most of the important issues involved were thoroughly discussed Republican senators were ready to vote on the bill Monday, but it now seems that all this week at least will be consumed by the debated. Session Will be Prolonged. Further assurances that the session would be more prolonged than had been expected came today when Sen- ator Kern, the majority leader, an- nounced decision of the party leaders to dispose of a river and harbor ap- propriation bill. This measure had been before the senate for weeks: and was laid aside for trust folloswing a_filibuster conducted by Senator Burton of Ohio. Then the word will be passed around that the river and harbor bill would be left in the lurch by adjournment when trust legislation should be enacted. Reconsideration of this programme is certain to hold attention of con- gress two or three weeks at least. In the house conservation legisla- tion now is being prepared and it is probable that it will receive attention of the senate when it reaches there. Emergency Revenue Legislation. The necessity of emergency revenue legislation and being ready for any cventualities that may be precipitated by the European war is the underlying reason for the slowing up of congress. There is going to be no rush to enact a stamp tax or increase in internal revenues on commodities. Although it is certain that additional govern- ment revenues must be provided be- cause of the curtailment of customs. the leaders want to hear from all parts of the country before a law is passed. They alfo want to consider thoroughly just how to spread the tax to the best advantage. No Treasury Deficit. There is no treasury deficit now and no immediate danger of one, conse- quently the democrats say it would be best to go at the task of providing for the ultimate deficit deliberately and safely. War risk insurance by the govern- ment also is to be considered although a bill to provide for this probably will not take up much of the time of con- gress when the plan is worked out and a measure submitted. The bill may be introduced tomorrow in both houses. 20th Case of Plague in New Orleans. New Orleans, La, Aug. 18.—The twentieth case of bulonic piague was reported here today.
