brothers at law over a will
Alfred Fat.man Charges Foloincn With
Appropriating HU Estate.
The Fatman will case just beguu in the
yew York courts will be watched with in
terest by Savaunahiane. The suit is by
Alfred Fatman against bis brother Soloman
J. Fatman to force him to disclose wbat he
has done with the assets of bis father’s
estate, which at his death, in 1869, consisted
of $300,000 worth of personal property and
much valuable real estate in New York and
■vicinity.
r-olomon is the senior member of the firm
of Fatman & Cos., cotton exporters, now of
Few York, and was formerly in business in
Favannah. The firm here was 8. Fatman.
Mr. Fatman left Navanuah two years ago
ami has eince resided in New York. The
American Trading Society wai the suc
cessor of the firm here.
It is estimated that with the legal int-rcet,
added to the original sum loft by Joseph
Fatman to his wife and sons, the estate
should now aggregate more than <1,000,000.
Solomon is thesoleexjoutofof his father’s
©state, and It is alleged by Alfred that hi
has never made any aooount.ng to the heirs.
Alfred was onlyl3 years old when his father
died, and he claims that he has not received
any part of his share of the estate. Solo
mon, in his answer, sets up the claim that he
never received, as executor, any money
wnatever from his father’s estate, and that
when his father died be was insolvent and
owed more than <500,000.
Alfred has secured an order from Judge
Daly for an examination of his brother
Solomon, and, if necessary, to compel him
to show the books of his firm so that it may
be found what has become of his father's
property in order that Alfred may frame
his complaint. Solomon is making a des
perate legal fight against this.
When Joseph l'atman died be left a will
bequeathing <IOO,OOO to his widow and the
remainder of his estate, share and share
alike, to bis children. The will provided
that the interest of the tei tator in the firm
of Fatman & Cos., should be preserved in
tact. He directed his executors to repre
sent his interest for the benefit of all the
heirs.
Solomon, being the eldest of the four sons
and six daughters of Joseph Fatman, was
named as executor in the will In connection
with two others, but he was the only on*
that qualified. Solomon is fifteen years Al
fred’s senior.
Less thui three months after his father’s
death Solomon filed an Inventory in the
surrogate’s court showing more than $300,-
000 verth of personal property in his hands
belonging to the estate, of which <275,000
consisted of his father’s interest in the firm
of Fatman & Cos. This is alleged to have
rbeen the ouly act he has ever done in per
formance of his trust. It is claimed by
Alfred that he never filed an account, dis
tributed any part of the estate among the
heirs or paid the legacy of SIOO,OOO devised
to his mother.
Alfred expects to prove, when the cose
comes to a trial, that Solomon used the
trust funds for bis individual purposes iu
inducting himself into the firm of Fatman
& Cos. as a partner. Solomon’s answer to
this is that the firm was insolvent and that
the creditors swallowed up the entire estate,
real and personal. The inventory filed by
him, showing that his father’s interest iu
the firm amounted to $275,000, he now says
was a mistake. This sum, he avers, repre
sented merely the assets ot the firm, against
which creditors had liens for 1500,000.
The inventory was filed, Solomon says, to
avoid the disgrace which would have re
sulted had the public known that the firm
was so heavily involved. He claims that
Alfred knew this. Alfred, however, says
his brother never filed any document giving
the names of these mysterious creditors.
Shortly after his father’s death Alfred
•went to Europe. He traveled abroad with
a brother-in-law for some time and then
returned to this country. He came south
and engaged in numerous kinds of employ
ment He afterward went to England and
served as a clerk in a mercantile house in
Liverpool up to two years ago. Meantime
he married and was very anxious to get his
portion of the estate. His brother refuted,
to make any accounting.
Alfred resolved to seek legal redress, and
came to this country in 1890 to compel his
brother to settle his accounts as executor.
The case has been In pending in one for in or
another ever since and has now been taken
Into the court of common pleas.
A COLLEGE OP ART3.
Plan to Organize a New Type of
School In Savannah.
F. G. Forsyth-de Frocsao of Boston pro
poses to establish next fall, with the con
currence cf some leading citizens here and
some educationalists of Boston, the Savan
nah College of Arts, for both soxes. It will
be different from any sobool in America in
many respects, one of which u because most
of tbs instruction will be illustrated by the
pupils.
In languages the Festallozzian system will
be used, illustrated by national ceremonials
In those languages. In literature the proper
sentiments will be illustrated by drama, in
which the class participates. History,
tableaux and the costumes of nations and
epochs will be represented in events. In
political and social science the la#s of
human, governmental and racial develop
ment will be illustrated by history,
heraldry, archueology, philology, and ethno
logy. Physical culture will be blended with
national dancing, such as Spanish, Italian,
eta The plastic arts, molding, eta, will
be taught, as well as drawing, painting, all
departments of music. Military drill will
be given the boys, and it is intended to have
a marine department for navigation.
The whole plan will be on the health sys
tem recently introduced from Europe. A
large building is needed for the boarding of
out-of-town pupils,

railroad he manages.
The first railroad in Sweden was opened
in 1856. At the end of 1566 the total length
ot lines amounted to 1,778 kilometers (about
1,104 miles), and at the end of 188+ the fig
ures had reaohed 6,599 kilometers (about
4.09s miles). Of this length 3,313 kilome
ters belonged to the government and 4,287
kilometers were under private control.
Col. H. 8. Haines, vice president of the
Plant system, made a speech before the
Senate committee on interstate commerce
last week against the interference by con

to be used. Coi. Haines says that tbo rail
roads are maxing rapid progress in adopt
ing the master car-builders’ lines for
couplers.
Hard work to finish the first twenty miles
of the Arcadia, Gulf and Florida railroad
was done last week. Recently the componv
building the road sold 10.000 acres of land
granted by the state to a company of
Scotch capitalists for <<50,000. The Scotch
men are ready to pay their money, but un

town to Sarasota, was built by last Mon

Hundreds of bands have been working night

the line.
OTbe shortest railway line in this country
lsjthe Marine railway, that runs from Man
hattan Beach to Brighton Beach at Coney
Island, N. Y. It is a little short of one-third
of a mile long and is double tracked. It is
only operated during the summer, but has a
large traffic, being the only means of access
between the two points. There is a uniform
fare of 5 o-nts, or at the rate of about 15
cents per mile, and the number of passen
gers during the year ending June 30, 1890,
was 432,496. The uet surplus for that year
was $30,353.
It is now stated on the best authority, ac
cording to the New York Hr raid, that the
Richmond Terminal plan of reorganiza

1, Meanwhile conferences are being held
with representative holders of existing se
curities with a view to arranging for the
exchange of these on such a basis as will
secure the support of these Important In
terests for the plan. The delay will also
give the street time to recover from tbs
shock caused bv the proposition to issue
$500,000,000 of stocks and bonds and to be

figures.
Supt, Peddle, of the Central rail
way of New Jersey, caused a sensation
among the railroad raeo at Jersey City Sat
urday by summoning to his office at the
Jerßoy City depot over a hundred employes,
including many bolding responsible posi
tions, and accusing them of playing policy.
Those who denlod the charge wore at once
discharged, while those who confessed were
reprimanded and told not to do so again.
The men have boen under surveillance for
some time, the company discovering that
much time was wasted by the men, who
played the game with agents who daily be

A meeting of the officials of the Albany,
Florida and Northern and of the Savannah,
Americuß and Montgomery railroads was
held in Albany day before yesterday, re
sulting in the lease of the Albany, Florida
and Northern by the Savannah, Americus
and Montgomery for au Indefinite period.
The Atlanta, Florida and Northern has
$420,000 in outstanding bonds, the payment
of the principal and interest of which the
Savannah, Amerious and Montgomery road
guarantees as they fail due. This is under
stood lo be the principal condition of the
lease. The Albany, Florida and Northern
will prove a valuable feeder to the Savan
nah, Americus and Montgomery when the
latter has been built to Savannah.
The Columbia (S. C.) Register predicts
that there will he musio in the air with
the railroads of Boutb Carolina soon. The
railroads have until Mar* 9 to pay
their taxes with the addition of a 15
percent, penalty. It is improbable, the
Register says, that they will do so. If they
fail then the treasurers of the various
counties will issue executions against their
property for the taxes, with the addition of
50 per cent, penalty. Tben]the b.g legal fight
will come off, for the railroads will resist
as vigorously the attempt to collect taxes
on a larger assessmont than that on which
they paid taxes last year. They will make
their fight on thb ground that tho increase
of their assessment i3 an injustice to them
and is against the principle of equity, which
should underly tho taking of taxes.
REID FOR THE PRESIDENT.
The Minister to Pnrlo May Be Put on
the Ticket With Harr.son.
Washington, Feb. 24.— 1 t Is very gener
ally behoved here that Minister Reid is
coining home from France on an intimation
from Boss Platt that in certain contingen
cies he will be supported hy the New York
delegation for the second place on the ticket
at Minneapolis. If President Harrison is
to be reuominated aud Morton does not wai t
a renomination, Mr. Platt, it is said, would
prefer Minister Reid to Secretary Tracy for
second place and would make a reciprocity
agreement with President Harrison’s
friends on that basis. The oft-published
fact that President Harrison is dissatis
fied with his Secretary of the In
terim and that Secretary Noble is
dissatisfied with hi* place and would
like to exchange it for a foreign mission,
was the only basis for the report current
to day that Secretary Noble would succeed
Minister Reid at Paris. Neither President
Harrison nor Secretary Nobio seem disposed
to break silence first on this subject, aud as
yet no mutual friend has come forward to
help them out. Shrewd Tom Carter of
Montana, who has been living aloue In the
commissionership of the general land office
in the hope that he would get Secretary
Noble’s shoes, will have to wait longer.

THE MORNING NEWS: THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 25,1892.
FREE COINAGE DOOMED.
THE Bli-L’S CUaNCaS IN THE SEN
ATES VERY SLIM.
Even if It Passed Both Houses Presi
dent Harrison Would Veto It—The
Most Enthusiastic Advocates of the
Scheme Put to Their Wlt9’ Ends to
Figure Cut a Majority.
Washixoios, Feb. 34.—The more the
subject is canvassed the more apparent it
becomes that a majority of the Senate cannot
be obtained to vote for a free coinage bill.
Even the advocate# of the mania are not
claiming anything like the majority of nine
teen which they obtained in the last con
gress. They admit heavy losses on both
sides of the chamber and can with dif
ficulty figure out a free coinage majority,
even by counting every one who is supposed
to be in doubt. Eleven republicans out of
the forty-seven in the Senate are all that
are safe for free coinage. They arc
the two from Nevada, two from Montana,
two from Idaho, two from Colorado, one
from California, one from Oregon and one
from Pennsylvania. The free coinage
workers claim al=o Senators Paddock of
Nebraska, Squire of Washington and Petti
grew of South Dakota, but all three of
these are counted by the opponents of free
coinage as sure to vote on the right side.
THE DEMOCRATS WHO OPPOSE IT.
The democrats who oppose free coinage
are the two from New Jersey, Senator Brioe
of Ohio, Senator Gray of Delaware, Senator
Palmer of Illinois, Senator Vilas of Wiscon
sin, Senator Carlisle of Kentucky and the
two Louisiana senators, Messrs, Gibson and
White. Mr. White is anew senator, and
ha* been generally counted upon by the
free coinage workers, but he and his col
league have made up their minds that free
coinage will not be for the benefit of Louisi
ana or of the Democratic party of tho
union. The refusal of these nice dem
ocratic senators to vote for free coinage
reduces the democratic vote iu its faver to
thirty, and makes tbe affirmative vote,
with eleven republicans and two allianoe
senators, forty three. This leaves forty-five
senators opposed to free coinage, without
counting Senator Hill of New York,who has
declared that he sympathized with the New
York Chamber ot Commerce, nor Senator
Gorman of Maryland, who realizes the dan
gor of committing tho national democracy
to free c linage.
FIGURING OUT THE VOTE.
If these two men vote against the free
coinage bill, tbe vote upon it will be 41 iu
the affirmative and 47 in the
negative. Even the loss of Senator
Paddock or Senator Squire would leave the
Senate a tie and the bill would be defeated.
The loss of both of these senators and of
Senator Gorman would defeat the
bill by a tie vote if Senator
Hill voted against it Under these
circumstances, it is more difficult, even for
tbe sanguine temperament of Senators
Stewart and Wolcott, to extract comfort
from the situation than they can sunshine
from cucumbers.
Senator Aldrich Of Rhode Island believes
that a free coinage bill will pass the Senate,
because he does not think that tho changes
have been numerous enough to wipe out the
big majority of the last congress. He ad
mits, however, that he has not made a care
ful canvass, and that the changes are
numerous.
HARRISON SURE TO VETO IT.
The influence of the administration has
been steadily agaiust the passage of a free
coinage bill and the President is ready to
veto it in any form in which it comes to
him. He does not care whether tho prop
osition is clothed iu the specious guise of
coining the American product alone or
stands forth in the naked ugliness of free
and unlimited ooinage. He has given this
assurance recently to prominent members
of congress and they are urging the western
republicans not to destroy their party
in the east by letting a free coinage bill get
through tbe Senate with tho belp of their
votes. The republican senators are waiting
for tbe House to act in the hope that it will
vote for free coinage and give the repub
lican majority In the Senate a chance to
claim the credit of killing it. But the
sentimout in the House seems to be grow
ing stronger and stronger against stepping
into the clumsy trap which the republican
senators have spread.

WORK OF THE HOUSE.
Tareney’s Labor Investigation Resolu
tions Put Through.
Washington, Feb. 24.—The attendance
In tbe House was small when Speaker Crisp,
looking somewhat improved from his short
vacation, called it to order.
Mr. Tarsney of Missouri asked unani
mous content for present consideration of
the resolution directing the committee on
labor to investigate—first, whether a con
tinuance of the 8-hour law
and Its enforcement is desirable,
seoond, by what methods and to what ex
tent the law has been evaded; third,
whether amendments are required to pro
vide for practical enforcement of the law;
fourth, whether any convict labor is being
used by the United States or any con
tractor or subcontractor in the construc
tion or repair of pub’io works; fifth,
whether the product of convict labor is
being furnished to any department of tbe
government. Tbere was no objection, and
