He sald that the Lord | had advised him to sign his name back- ward, lest he be discovered, and there- fore James.

A contest is brewing over the $250,000 estate of the late Frank Phiscator, Alaskan miner, who won fame as the discoverer of Eldorado No.,2, a bonanza of the great Klondike region. It was announced yesterday in Judge Kerri- gan's court that Mrs. J. K. Gordon, the divorced wife of the late miner, was on her way here from Fairbanks, Alaska, to get letters of guardianship over her son, Frank, who is named as sole de- visee of the estate of his father ams who is now in custody of C. B. Scott and O. O. Jordan, who are named in Phiscator’'s will to care for the son's interests. Scott appeared before Judge Graham yesterday and asked that his ward be granted a family allowance of $250 a month. While the boy is but 14 years of age, it was announced that the sum asked was necessary for his main- tenance and proper education. Judge Kerrigan granted the allowance and thens counsel announced that the lad's mother was on her way here and hinted that it was evidently her purpose to ob- tain possession of the boy if possible and thus get control of his estate. Counsel further stated yesterday that additional assets of the estate were constantly coming to light, securities having been found In safe deposit vaults it was not known the deceased controlled. It has also been found that Phiscator purchased farms in Michigan for relatives, with the understanding that the same were to revert to his son when the present possessors die. Phiscator and his former wife were @divorced in 1898. Phiscator was granted the custody of hisgson and to the lad he had given all "he recovered from years of labor in the frozen gravels of the Alaskan placers.

Pease. The estate of Emma S. | Pease is a creditor of the estate of | 1sabel V. Hopps in the sum of $175 60 | and the inability of Simons to recover the sum from Cummings resulted in an investigation that has disclosed the al- leged fraud. Simons asserts that for three years past Cummings has failed to flle an accounting of his trust, has given no | notice to creditors and has filed no in- | ventory of the Hopps estate. In ad- dition to .ne assets of this estate it is| sald that he has come into possession of $400 from the estate of the late| James H. Hopps, husband of Isabel V. Hopps, and of this sum it s asserted he has made no mention. Tt is further asserted that Cummings has sold the personal property belong- | ing to the estate of Mrs. Hopps and has used the proceeds for his personal | needs.

They are expected | to act with the Commissioners on the ac- ceptance or rejection of plans, the award of contracts and the allowance of war- rants for construction. The proposed new section of 1000 feet will extend northerly from the foot of King street to the easterly line of Fre- mont street. After this section is com- | pleted therg will still remain a gap of | 3000 feet from Fremont to Folsom street. | The new section of 1000 feet will afford space for three plers adjacent to déep water. The new piers will accommodate shipping so that work may be conducted on the line from Fremont northerlv to Folsom street in order that an unbroken wall may extend from thd initial point | on North Beach to the Pacific Mall doeks. | The Commissioners will request the State Treasurer to offer for sale only $250,000 of the $2,000,000 of bonds author- ized. It is estimated that the sum of | $250,000 will be ample for the construction of the proposed new section of 1000 feet. It would not, in the judgment of the board, be good policy to pay interest on | a larger sum than the amount actually required for the work in hand. At the meeting on the 21st inst. Mayor Schmitz will surely have an opportunity to express his views concerning the man- agement of Ban Francisco Harbor affairs The Commissioners yesterday allowed a bill of $2500 favor of Holmes & Uhlig. ————— WANTS UNITED RAILROADS TO DECLARE ITS INTENTION Holly Purk Association Asks Corpora- tion to Carry Out Franehise on Cortland Avenue.
