Ben Rountree, Wallace Reimann, Will Carlson, of this city, and George Steely, of Danville 111. Just before the entrance of the bridal party at 8 o'clock, Miss Edna Dice rendered "I Promise Thee," from Lohengrin, and as the party appeared in the (ranscepts of the church Mies Josie Stilwell, who presided at the piano, began playing the wedding march from Lohengrin. Down the east aisle came George Stilwell, brother of the bride, Wallace Reimann, Will Carlson and the groom with his brother, James G. Glover. Down the west aisle came Ben Rountree preceding the bridesmaid, Miss May Cunningham, of this city, and the maid of honor, Miss Lulu Jackson, of Danville, 111.

MAY LOSE $50 000.

Wabash College May Have To Give Up Part of the Money Secured From the Fayerweather Estate.

A special from New York sayB! 'Judge Lncombs, in the United States district court to-day rendered a decision which threatens to re-open the long litigation over the Fayerweather will, and may even compel the reBti tution of the enormous sums paid under its provisions to colleges and universities. "This action is taken in the suit now being brought on behalf of the estate of Mrs. Fayerweather, represented by her nieces, Emma B. Fayerweather and Mary W. Achter. As the plaintiffs reside in Iowa they had tho right of bringing suit against the executors in this state in the United States circuit courts. Judge Lacombe granted a motion of Ryar M. Sherman, counsel for the plaintiffs, to amend bill of complaint by inserting a motion to Bet aside the last codicil to the will on the ground that it

waB

procured by

fraud. "William Blaikia, of counsel for Mr. Fayerweather's estate, said that if Judge Lacombe's action waa con* firmed by the higher courts it would re-open the whole litigation from the beginning. "Among the institutions which may be compelled to refund the amounts already paid to them under the first distribution, provided for in tho will is Wabash college, it having received $50,000 by the terms of the codicil. "Daniel B. Fayerweather was one of the wealthiest leather dealers in New York when he died on Nov. 19th, 1890. Beginning life as a penniless farmer's boy, he succeeded in amassing a fortune of between $0,000,000 and 97,000,000. He was childless, and in his will, which was admitted to probate a month after his death, he appointed aB his executors Henry B. Vaughn, JuBtuB L. Bulkley and Thomas G. Rich. To his wife he bequeathed only $10,000, his residence and an allowance of $15,000 a year during her life. Smaller bequests were made to various friendB, relatives and servants, and the will provided that after all legacies were paid the remainder of the eBtate should be divided among twenty-five' universities, colleges and medical institutions. It is said that after making this will Mr. Fayerweather learned that he could not legally devise more than one-half of his estate for educational purposes, and he therefore appended a codicil, which was also admitted to probate. "This codicil specified the amounts to be paid to the various institutions amounting to more than $2,000,000, and left the residuary estate absolutely to the executors, with the understanding that they were to distribute the money, estimated at nearly $3,000,000, among othe? educational and charitable institutions. "The will was contested by the widow and other relatives and a compromise was arrived at whereby the allowance to the widow was materially increased, the bequests direct to the colleges and hospitals were paid, and a deed of gift by which about $2,000,000 was to be distributed among thirty-three other institutions, WBB executed by the executors. "This distribution, however, was never made, and a bitter legal contest ensued, in which the heirs, the original twenty-five institutions and the beneficiaries under tho deed of gift were all opposed to one another. The result of this was that the deed of gift was set aside and the executors were directed to distribute the reBiduam in accordance with the original provisions of the will. In the meantime, however, Mrs. Fayerweather died and her executors refused to recognize the compromise made between her and the other heirs, and set up a claim for the residuary. estate on behalf of her nieces, Emma B. Fayerweather and Mary W. Achter."
