This former will* was kept .within the
\u25a0steel doors of the safe of Bradner W7
; Lee' during the 10 years preceding the
;df>ath of the turfman and capitalist for
the- -purpose of frustrating any attack
:on liis last testament, which It is said
he feared. " * t. '
When a contest of the 'last will was
threatened by the .widow it was warded
;<ft.by a settlement on her of $1,375,000.
I.t- 'was made to appear to Mrs. Mc-
Olaughrey and Mrs. StoCker that the
widow, could tie up the estate for six
or seven . years with the various lines
of litigation which would grow out of
a will contest."'..".
KABLV SETTLEMENT EXPECTED
Lee said- today that he expected to
have the estate ready for distribution
within V lo months, or a year from the
tiling of the will last April, which
: would establish a new record in the
settlement of big estates In the \u25a0west.
Appraisers are at work every day
figuring on the values of the Baldwin
properties, which were estimated by the
; execfttor; H. A.- Unruh, at $25,000,000
when he filed the will for probate. The
:-report of the appraisers is expected to
be filed s*:ith the court within a few
..weeks. ;
The cxe**utor is instructed by the will
to . sell enough property to pay the
d<>bts and Jegicies, and to divide the
remainder .between the residuary. lega-
U-es, Mrs. McClaughry and Mrs. Stocker.
HEIEt«:' SUARES $10,000,009

heirs will receive $10,000,000 each after
all the costs have been, paid and after
the settlemeit . with Mrs. Baldwin has
>«*?en carried into effect, including the
payment of the $420,000 fee to the law
yers who negotiated the settlement for
the -widow' aaj . another of unnamed
amount of Gavin McNab of San Fran
< fsco, who- represented the principal
heirs and proponents of the will in the
negotiations. • '
The earlier will first, it is understood,
provided that the widow, shoul.d have

erty and aisposed of all his possessions
.in about the same manner as he did in
the final, will, which was. made shortly
before his death. '

WRIGHT HAS MISHAP
IN AEROPLANE TEST
Birdlike Machine Strikes Tree,
Breaking Skids and Rip
ping One Wing
WASHINGTON; July 2— After mak
ing two successful flights late today the
Wright aeroplane met with a slight
mishap, which will delay further tests
until next weeK. -
The machine, with Orville Wright at
the helm, was on its way around the
Fort Myer drill grounds for the ninth
time in its second flight when the motor
stopped '60 feet ; above : the • earthl The
great, birdlike machine came to a stand
still, then glided to the earth without
injury to its occupants at the place the
propeller blade broke last September,
which resulted in a fatal accident. .
In gliding today the machine struck a
tree and was swerved around with such
force. that the skids were broken and
the right wing badly ripped.
Despite the mishap, the two flights
today were the most successful that Or
ville Wright has made at Fort Myer
since his return to complete the gov
ernment trials. On the first attempt he
flew about the field 12 times in 11 min
utes and 50 seconds, and on the second
trial he had .'gone around eight and a
half. times when the flight was termi
nated.
During both flights Wright went
higher and faster than in the trials of
the two previous days. It was esti
mated that his speed was about 37 miles
an hour on an average, although the
machine probably exceeded 40 miles
when flying with the breeze.

the areoplane, inventor, whose contract
time for furnishing a flying machine to
the government expired yesterday, will

INDIAN'S DEED
STIRS BRITAIN'S
POLITICAL CHIEFFS
Murdre of Colonel and Doctor
by Pharsee Causes Wave -
of Indignation :.
Detectives Detailed to Guard
Lord Morley and Other ,
, Colonial Officials!!!!
LONDON, July 2.— The murder of
Lieutenant Colonel Sir William : Hutt
Curion Wyllie and Dr. Cawas Lalcaca
of Shanghai by Madar Lelof Dhinarl,
an Indian student, Thursday, night at
the Jmperial institute has stirred Eng
,land in a manner unknown since the
Phoenix park murders. It his been a
subject of self-congratulation by Eng
lishmen that Graeat Britain was im
mune from; political- crimes of this na
ture.
Great sympathy is felt for Viscount
Morley, secretary of j state for India,
the difficulties of. l -\vhose jiosition are
greatly increased by the murder.
A strong feeling has been aroused
against certain members of the house
of commons arid others who have en
couraged the agitation against the
government.
GUARD LORD MORLEY >
Scotland Yard has detailed detectives
to follow Lord Morley and others con
nected, with the Indian administration.
Newspapers of all j shades of opinion
urge the government not to swerve a
hair's breadth in" the direction of .weak
ening the executive' authority in India.
Two documents were found" on' Dhin
agri. One was a confession of a de
sire to take the life of a high official
because he was dissatisfied with the
British rule in India and the other a
sort of political creed referring to
Englishmen as tyrants and having a
suggestion of reward in heaven for
any one getting rid of prominent Brit
ishers.
The assassin's family is said to be
well known at Amritsar, Jn the Junjab,
where is father Is a municipal leader.
IN AX UGLY TEMPER
,In the dock the prisoner appeared
quite unconcerned. He stood 'with his
hands in his pockets and shook his
head negatively when asked if he
wished to say anything. Subsequently,
however, he said that he had not will
fully killed Dr. Lalcaca. "I saw him
advance and then he caught^hold" of
me; I fired in self-defense," he declared.
This is the first time, the methods of
the terrorists have been Introduced
into public agitation in England and
the country has awakened to the fact
in an ugly temper. The " prisoner,
whose age is given as 26, is said*to
have relatives in good standing in Cal
cutta.
At. the India office the murder of
Colonel Wyllie, who was a political
aide de camp to Lord Morley, secre
tary of state for India, is declared to
be entirely political. Colonel Wyllie, so
far as is known, had j had no personal
dealings with Dhlnagri, and the India
office vie wis that the outrage was due
to some imaginary grievance . against
the system of government.
FOR FRIENDLY RELATIONS *
The National Indian association, un
der whose auspices the gathering at
the Imperial institute | was held, wa^
formed for the purpose of establishing
frlendl yrelations between the peoples
of Great Britain and India. .
Sir Alfred and Lady Lyall received
the guests, who numbered .300 Anglo-
Indian retired officers, active mrabers
of the Indian service, India officers, offi
cials and' atudents.- The sce^ne was a
brilliant one. There • were ;.present
many native Indians and women In
picturesque native 'costumes, and,, with
the exception of the assassin, every one
was in evening, dress. . Dhinagri was
attired in ordinary morning dress and
wore a turban.

P. E. Bowles Jr. Makes Deposition in Suit
Brought by Clara E. Haggett
OAKLAND, July 2. — Palpitating love
letters, gifts of money, quarrels, blows,
long journeys, jealousies and mutual
sharing, of the "vicissitudes of life en
riched the narrative of : Philip Ernest
Bowles Jr.,- son of P. E. Bowles, presi
dent of the First national bank of
Oakland, when his deposition was
taken by attorneys for Clara E. Hag
gett. as a step in the trial of her suit
for $50,000' damages based on his al
leged breach of promise to marry her.
. Constant objections on the part of
Bowles* counsel, Attorney W. H.
Chickerlng. failed to stop the .'tide of
admission or to lighten the burden
of queries unanswered which now form
part of the records of Alameda county,
the deposition, which filled 60 type
written pages, having been filed late
this' afternoon. Vv\L-
Names well known in social circles
of Washington, D. C, form- an impor
tant feature of , the situation. A visit
paid young Bowles by his aunt, Bessie
McNear, and Miss Viva Nicholson,
sister in law of former Secretary -of
the- Navy Victor E.; Metcalf, to whom
Bowles was private secretary while
at the national capital, gave rise to
a violent altercation between young
Bowles and Miss Haggett. . Attorney
O. It; B. Leidy 'attempted to Induce the
defendant to admit that he had subse
quently written most disparagingly of
Miss Nicholson to Miss Haggett to
placate her. , . .
"A Mrs. Campbell, at. whose home he
had- taken his meals at , : Washington,
was also drawni into the affair. Leldy
asked Bowles if Mrs. Campbell had-not
advised him .to be guided by ; .his
parents and refuse, to marry Miss Hag
gett. Subsequently Mrs. Campbell was
said to have telegraphed him to come
and assist her to procure a divorce,
but the interference of Bowles* parents
prevented this. When Mrs. Campbell
removed to Sacramento : Bowles trans
mitted' her mall." according" to, queries
directed by Leidy." All'of these ques
tions met with refusals, to answer on
advice of "Attorney Chickering.. -
Keturnlng to the attack Leldy wanted
to . know whether \ Bowles had not | had
an urgent request from Miss Elizabeth
Hedding of Washington; D. C, to re
turn-a ring which he had taken and
which -he purposed to have mended. -T;
Sending telesrams to : Miss Irene

they were directed to- his motherf.was

broached, .but to>which •he failed to

"You can be happy. Kit, because my
life will be devoted to making you
happy, and as to the blot on your life
it is only I that can wipe that out, and
' I am going to do it if it costs me my
life, so help me God. Now, Kit, let's
. not be foolish any more. I won't ever
give you cause to mistrust me again,
and this time I mean business, so write
and tell me that you love me still and
that you will give me one more chance,
and we will walk hand in hand through
the rest of our lives together. I will
never give you up, though, you tramp
me under your feet. So write me that

Attorney Chickering objected to the
readings of all the letters in the case
Into the record of the deposition-,- and
threatened to withdraw the witness if
the practice were continued.
Bowles admitted that -he had first
seen Miss Haggett at Seventh street
.and Broadway, Oakland, at least a
year before the fire, and that the same
night they had gone riding In an au
•tomobile, but she had requested to be
taken home early- In the. evening, in

to his mother's summer cottage called
The Pines on several occasions, and
that as a result of this servants there
had been discharged by the owner.
They had gone to Ma,ple Valley.
state, where his debts be
came burdensome, and Leidy sought to
show. that he had asked Miss Haggett
to go to work as cook for a camp of
40 men to earn money for lifting the
debts. Bowles said she had worked for
a hotel keeper as house keeper for a
short time.- " ,
At Seattle he said tTiey had to pawn
various articles for money to live on.
but disclaimed knowledge of the actual
pawning, saying that Miss Haggett had
attended to that. He said he often-
I gave her money gifts and paid all their
•- expenses.
Quarrels which they had had at
Washington. D. C, when he. was em
. ployed by former Secretary of the Xavy
Metcalf had led to her exclaiming in
the presence; of a Mrs. Jameson and a
Mr. Cole that they, were not married.
; so Bowles admitted, and he added that
she had often made, nuch statements.
He admitted that they had arranged to
ibe-married. but only on condition that
. his finances improved sufficiently to
justify such. an action.
Hints at Bowles'.. defense came out
when he said she had told him before
the San Francisco fire that she had
spent the night at Delmonlco's with an
other' girl and two men, having missed
the last boat. Leidy produced an al
leged, communication rrom Bowles In
which he said that Miss "Haggett might
