REASON FOR THEIR ACTION

Uetrs-Say They Ar First
Coasts.
Ever since the will of the late ex
Judge John Handley was admitted to
probate by Register of Wills Hopkins
there has been talk of a contest to
have the will set aside. The contest
materialised yesterday, when action
was begun In behalf of the following,
who claim to be first cousins of the late
Judge: Patrick Murphy, Togue, Me.;
Henry Handley. Tacoma, Wash.; Mar
tin Handley and Margaret McCullagh,
Savannah, N. V.; Henry Handley,
South liutler, N. Y.; Margaret Colborn.
John Handley. ElUa Slnnct, Bridget
Handley, Anastatla Handley, County
Wexford. Ireland; Elisa Sanders,
Burkenhead, and John Handley, of the
Isle of Wight, England.
J. H. Hubbell. of J. H. Hubbell &
Co., of 309 Broadway, New York, Is at
torney for -the heirs and next of kin
of the late judge, and has retained Col
onel George H. Starr, of New York
city, and Jessups A Hand, of this city,
to represent them In what promises to
be a lengthy and important litigation,
to determine their rights under the
last will of the late Judge Handley.
The attorneys yesterday afternoon
Hied with Clerk Colborn, of the United
States circuit court a bill In equity
against General H. W. Palmer, Hon.
Lemuel Amerman and John T. Rich
ards, as executors under the last will
and testament of Judge Handley, ask
ing that the will be declared void as to
certain portions, and a decree be made
that the heir at law are entitled to the
bulk of the property left by Judge
Handley.
GROUNDS FOR CONTEST.
They claim that the legacies of $25!-
000 to the House of the Good Shepherd,
$50,000 to St. Patrick's Orphan osylunv,
and $250,000 to the city of Winchester
and some of the other smaller legacies
are the only ones, If any, that can
possibly stand, and that the rest or
the property should go to the heirs at
law.
The value of the personal property
alone, as appraised by H. E. Paine,
state appraiser for collateral Inheri
tance tax. Is more than sulIUient to pay
all of these legacies and all of the debts
of the estate, and that all of the real
estate and rentals of coal property
should go to the heirs at law. They
claim that the residuary clause In the
will and the resldum to the city of
Winchester for the purpose of erecting
school houses for the education of the
children of the poor Is void for uncer
tainty and Is Invalid under the laws
of the states of Virginia, West Vir
ginia and Pennsylvania, where the real
estate applicable to this clause is sit
uated. They claim there Is no power in the
city of Winchester to act as trustee for
the purposes named in the will, and
that tha will is uncertain and contra
dictory In other respects. That If the
provisions of the will are- carried out
It would give to the city of Winchester,
a place of five thousand inhabitants,
a sum which at the time it would be
paid over to the city of Winchester,
namely In 1916, would amount, with ac
cumulations, to about $1,800,000. That
this sum under the terms of the will
must be retained and accumulated by
the city of Winchester for a further
period of twenty years, until 1936. before
the Income could be used for the pur
poses of building and erecting school
houses for the education of the children
of the poor, and that at that time the
sum with accumulations at 4 per cent,
would amount to more than three mil
lion, Ave hundred thousand dollars,
FOR OTHER PURPOSES.
The will expressly provides that this
money shall be used for no other pur
pose and this would ahow conclusively
that Judge Handley did not Intend to
appropriate any such amount for this
purpose. The heirs are also satisfied
that there was no Intention on the part
of Judge Handley to disinherit them,
but that It was his tntentlon to In
clude them as beneficiaries In schedule
"A" which, for some cause, he failed to
fill out with the names of the bene
ficiaries. Our readers remember that each Item
of Judge Handley's will was written on
a separate sheet of paper and that
schedule "A" was found detached from
the other portions of the will, which
Itself waa fastened loosely with red
tape such as Is generally used In law
ofHoes. The estate as shown by the
appraisal made by Mr. Paine amounts
to about $1,400,000.
This bill Involves the title to the Wyo
ming house and the Handley block on
corner of Wyoming avenue and Spruce
street in this city, lots on Penn avenue.
coal lands In Blakely and Lackawanna
townships, a tract of 15,000 acres of
coal and timber lands In West Vir
ginia, a hotel at Winchester, Virginia,
and other property.

Charged Ulm With.
Ex-Mayor John H. Fellows sent a
check for $323.20 to City Treasurer C. G.
Roland yesterday. The reason for so
doing Is explained in a letter which ac
companied the check. The amount
had lain In the Third National Dana
since Mr. Fellows went out of office as
mayor of Scranton three year ago.
and after diligent search in the dockets
he has been unable to discover any
record to account for the money.
He Is not sure but hi Individual ac
count may have not been enriched at
some time or another when a like sum
was deposited, and that It may have
been credited to his account as mayor.
Whether or not, he has decided to turn
the money over to the city. The letter
that came with the check is as fol
lows:
Scranton. Pa.. A Dili 27. 185.
C. G. Boland, City Treasurer.
Dear htr: When I retired from the of
fice of mayor I found I had deposited to
my credit as said mayor in the Third Na
tional bank of this city a balance-amount
ing- to the sum of $332.20. I knew not how
or from whence the balance came, as it
was a surplus, and I, of course, .lid not
want to touch the same until I could, if
possible satisfy myself who the sum be
longed to. I have waited for some time
unit have had the hearing docket exam
ined without becoming any wUer.
.now, not Knowing mat the sum is mine.
or not being certain that It Is, I have
concluded that if I have mixed my fund
erroneously with the city's I must be the
suflerer, so I herewith inclose you my
check for the sum of $332.20 the said bal
ance. I can account for It In but two ways.
one of which Is that I might have inad
vertently mixed my Individual funds with
there may have been naid in fines to the
officers in my absence and not entered
unon tne lieannn uocKet. out tne same
was put in the till and deposited in the
barnc to my credit as mayor.
This check makes a grand total of fines
and costs paid in by mo while I was mayor
tne sum or it.ssi.w.
Please acknowledge receipt of the same.
Yours very truly,
John H. Fellows.

On my arrival in Scranton last eve
ning for the purpose of conducting the
art sale of the Hruce collections In Mr.
Griffin's studio, 209 Wyoming avenue,
I learned of the non-arrival or Mr,
Bruce. With this limited notification
that the art loving patrons had of what
was waning ror ineir attention, i
deemed It unwise to go on with the
sale, and have postponed It till Monday
evening next, at 8 o'clock, at which time
It will positively take place. The cat
alogue, consisting of thirty-nine ex
amples, will be positively sold to the
highest bidder without regard to val
ues, and In conclusion permit me to
say to those who attend this sale and
are fortunate enough to obtain some
of them will secure not only what will
be a pleasure to them, but a great In
vestment for this artist Is bound to
attain a great premium In the Ameri
can Schools of Landscape Painters, and
not wishing to be egotistical if I did
not bellve what I have spoken, I should
not be here to conduct the sale. Trust
