My bon Ud hod been riding with me, but when we were between Anderson'B store and the Warm Springs he saw Clyde Felt nnd Henry Potts and got oft tho wagon to walk with them. Cljde and Henry went Into the Waeatka works and my son got on the wagon and lode with me." Mr. Uiook's son, who was present, supplemented the statement of his father as follows: "I walked with Cljde nnd Henry to tho Wnsatka woiks. When wo got theto C'ljdo nnd Henry went In the front door. Clyde said he had J8 DO hid In the building, and that Collins was hailng n key mado for the side dooi, so he could get In nnd get the money.

This, It la understood, will be satisfactory to. tho Prcsldoht. TO PREVENT SPECULATION. Sections 3 nnd 4 of the bill were also amended so as, to prevent any specu lation In irrigated lands, as It was feared by Borne that large corpora tions nnd Individuals would secure last tracts of land for speculative purposes.

Fortuno of Cecil Rhodes Is Flnced at That Amount Will Absorbing Topic ln London. London, April G Tho war In South Africa, politics nnd cieiy topic usually of Interest were forgotten todiy In tho absorbing discussion of Cecil Ithodes's will. Rcgaidlng tint extraordlnarj-document, tho Associated Tiess has ascer tained rnmo new facts. Iho total of Mr Rhodes 8 fortune Is likely to proic to be 15,000,000, or slightly under that nmount. Tho executors aie Loid Rosc-berj-, Uarl Orej', lxird Mllner, Alfied Port, Dr. Jameson, L. L. Mlceli nnd II. A. Hawkhley, to whom he bequeathed the residue of his estate. They will dlildo about 1,000,000 or f 1,000,000 among them. DIVIDING THIS LEGACY. According to tho terms of this lcgacj", the amount Is to be divided during their lifetime, but as each legatee dies his shaio goes to u common fund until sur ililng leguteo becomes lis solo owner. Hence, one of tho executors, the ma jority of whom aie nlicady enormously wealth y, will ono day Inherit what will then haie piobably accumulated Into neart) f.'.ooo.ooo. HAVE UNUSUAL POWERS. Tho executors, ;ho Associated Press learns, have unusually full powers, nnd can construe und idd to the will as seems fit. Hence, the omlnslon of Hrlt Ish Columbia, Noia bcotla nnd other Canadian proilnces from the list of scholai ships Is qulto likely to bo cor lected and each proilncc ot Canada may bo put on tho same footing as tho American Stutcs One of Mr. Ithodes's most Intimate associates said to u lepresentntlic of the Associated Pi ess: "He drew up his will In the same splilt In which he ap proached all great undertakings. In his most important tasks ho meicly sketched the outlines und left us to fill In the details. Ills tiutlces are glien power. In the mattci ot the scholui shlps Mr. Rhodes saw the scheme was so last that any attempt to too rigidly lay down the lines might lcsult In harm, so. beyond endeavoring to meet tho l gal rqulreinents, he tried to lenie the fulfillment of his plans to those with whom, during his lifetime, he had fre quently discussed them."
