Mc Donogh bequests, is claimed
by tlie well known Mrs. Myra
Clark Gaines as part ot the
property to which she has
come in jxisaesoiou by the de
cision of the Supreme court
about one year ago. Mr. J,
Proctor Morse is the attorney
rcfered to Mr. Gaines thought
that Baltimore would be reluc
tant to do her justice, and she
therefore sent her attorney, Mr.
W. II. Wilder, to make an im
mediate settlement with the
city. Air. Wildej was at the
mayors- oflice yesterday. Mr.
Wilder stated that the courts
decided that the property sold
by the ci'y was obtained by
John Mc 'Donogh under a fraud
ulent deed, and that it is val
ued at $75,000. Mrs. Gaines'
claim, with interest, for $10,000.
she is willing to compromise
