Special Dispatch to The Call. MERCED, Nov. 12—A case of unusual interest has been on trial here before Hon. E. N. Reztor, Judge of the Super- ior Court, for scveral days. In the mat- ter of the estate of Willlam C. Turner, deceased, formerly a wealthy pioneer of Merced County, letters of administration were granted in 1594 to W. W. Gray by Judge J. K. Law, then Judge of the Su- perfor Court. Later it appeared that Judge Law was the largest unsecured creditor of Turner. He presented his 5 appointed and the administrator allowed it. Meanwhile the Regents of the Univer- sity of California, who held a _$50,000 mortgage on lands belonging to Turner, had commenced suit to foreciose, making es- tate, the defendant. The foreclosure suit was about to be tried, when Sidney M. Van Wyck Jr., the attorney acting for the university, discovered that Gray hai been appointed administrator by Judge Law at a time when Judge Law was dis- qualified to aci, because of his own in- terest in the case. The university immediately nominated Edward W. Putnam to apply for letters of administration on the ground that thes letters issued to Gray were void. The ‘widow, rs. Elizabeth Turner, and a daughter of Turner, Mrs. Harriet E. Breckinridge, followed suit and applied for letters to themselves. All three applications are being heard together. Test!mony has been introduced by the petitioners and none was offerel in rebuital, for the facts were not dis- puted. Judge Law applied for leave to make an argument, saying he was a creditor and wished to protect his rights as _such. The argument on bchalf of the univer- sity was made by Attorney Van Wyck of San Francisco. It occupied nearly three days, in the course of which more than 100 decisions on_similar cases in_other States were produced and read. It was conceded that rever before in California had any court been called to pass upon the validity of letters of administration granted by an interested Judge, although the code provides that no Judge shall st in any matter in which he is interested. Mr. Van Wyck's argument was con- cluded yesterday. An adjournment was taken until to-morrow, owing to engage- ments of the attorncys in the Supreme Court. Arguments are then to be made hy Judge Law_and by Attorneys J. W. ;nt;(x. Frank H. Farrar and James F eck. Turner’'s estate was originally valued at $300.000. but owing to Jarge claims of cred- itors, is now insolvent. e Most of the people do not know where to secure the old English Sheffield Plat- ters, Vases and Candlesticks, and The Fe- roza Art Pottery ornaments, which un- doubtedly make the most desirable holi~| day presents one can give.

WILLOWS, Nov. 12—A sensational di- vorce case is now belng heard in Glenn County’'s. Superior Court behind closed doors. Mrs. Anna Bane is conducting her own case against her husband, P. D. Bane, a prominent farmer, who lives near Orland. The request‘that the public be barred from hearing the evidence comes from the attorneys for the defendant. Mrs. Bane strongly objected to closing the doors and willingly talks of her case and the evidence she will submit. Mrs. Bane's complaint is a voluminous affair and recites many alleged acts of cruelty on the part of her husband, all or which he denies. In the defendant's cross~ complaint he alieges that his wife wrong- fully accused him of being too friendly with a young woman formerly employed on a newspaper at Orland and declares that his wife told various persons that ttms young woman was obliged to leave own. All of this Mrs. Bane, in turn, denies in her answer, but she will try to introduce a. number of letters written by this young woman to her husband. Some of these letters, she alleges, address Bane as “My darling sweetheart” and ‘‘Dearest Paul” and are signed as “‘Your own,” and “With love.” A fight will be made to prevent the introduction of these warm epistles. The se probably will hinge onm an agreement entered into by Mr. and Mrs. Bane and signed by each of them in which they agree to separate, Mrs. Bane to be allowed $800 and to quitclaim any inter- est in Bane's property. Mrs. Bane claims that this was abrogated when Bane wrote to her in May, 1300, imploring her to re- turn to him and live with him as his wife. She did return, but he refused to take her back. The principals are prominent here and the case is creating much talk. The Banes have two young daughters, 5 and 8 yg:rs of age, who have been with their mother.
