New York! Nov. 4. The will of the late Joseph Pulitzer, disposing of an estate estimated at $30,000,000, and including the New York World and St. Louis Post-Dispatch, was read to Mr.

Pulitzer's widow, sons, daughters and others Intimately concerned yesterday. The document Included the original will drawn several years ago and to It ag added from time to time eleven codicils, of which the last, thirty pages, virtually nullifies all that had gone before. Mr. Pulitzer provides liberal allowances in his will for his widow and sons and daughters, but for the most part these legacies are in trust for the lives in being and twenty-one years thereafter. The future of the World and Post-Dispatch is left to a body of trustees.

The men nominated in the will incLude several who have died since its making and there was a decided disinclination to make public those who survive. It is known that Frederick N. Jud-son, of St. Louis, counsel for the president of the Pulitzer Publishing company (the St. Louis Post-Dispatch) is one of the trustees and it is believed that W.

B. Hornblower is another. The late Dumont Clarke, former president of the American Exchange National bank, was among the trustees named who died before Mr. Pulitzer met his fatal illness. Mr.

Pulitzer's sons. Ralph, Joseph and Herbert (a minor), are not named as trustees and no member of the World staff, nor any man actively associated with Mr. Pulitzer in his publications, is named. Beside $1,000,000 in securities deposited with the trustees of Columbia university about five years ago to establish a school of journalism in the university, the will makes provision for a substantial endowment after the school is successfully established. Mr.

Pulitzer's will contains a large number of smaller bequests to charities and education.

Baby carriages in Minnesota must hereafter carry warning lights when used after dark, two white lights in front and a red one at the rear.

Children's velocipedes, wheelbarrows and express wagons are also included In the provisions of the law, which really was intended only to help motorists and motor cyclists by compelling horse drawn vehicles to carry lights. But the wording was clumsy. FAIR AND WARMER IS PROMISED FOR TODAY The weather bureau promises a continuance of the fair weather with plenty of sunshine for today.

He came toj St. Louis yesterday, and met Mrs. Clark, who brought him heavier clothing. "I wound up my lecturing business, I hope for all time, at Zanesville, last i Saturday," remarked the Speaker. In the last six weeks he has visited sixteen states and delivered at least one lec-1 ture each day during that time.

BY RAGING EIRES Flames Started by Imperial Troops Are Rapidly Wiping Out the City. Almost the whole of the native city of Hankow is on fire this morning and It is feared that the Wesleyan mission near the Han river was destroyed. There were fifty blind boys, 150 wounded persons and the staff of the mission, making a total of three hundred persons, In the building.

Dr. Booth, the head of the mission, asked the imperialists to grant an armistice of two hours to permit the removal of the blind and wounded from the mission, but the firing ceased for only a half hour. A Red, Cross steamer whlcti attempted to rescue the Inmates of the mission was driven back by the fire from the rebel fort. One shell riddled the steamer's deck house. When the vessel was compelled to turn back the mission was still standing, but its position was hopeless, the flames being within two Imndred yards of it.

The fires In the town were started by the imperialists, who threw Inflammable shells into the place. A strong wind carried the flames across the river to Han-Yang, and a strip of that city on the water front a mile long was destroyed. The fire is still burning there. A few hundred rebels against whom the Imperialists are appearing to advance occupy the unburned parts of Hankow. When the steamer left an artillery due! was taking place between the batteries of the imperialists, which were planted back of the British concession, and the Wu-Chang and Han-Yang forts.

Several rebel shells landed in the foreign concessions, piercing the walls of houses. The imperialists occupy the district westward of the railway station almost to the Han river. The chamber of commerce asked the foreign consuls to protest against the burning of the the consuls declined to do so. The directory of Protestant missionaries in China, Japan and Korea for the current year shows the staff of the Wesleyan Methodist Missionary society at Hankow to be as follows: The Rev. G.

A. Clayton and wife, the Rev. J. S. Hleps and wife, the Rev.

R. T. Booth and wife, the Rev. W. A.

Tatchell and wife, the Rev. C. S. Minty, Miss Gooch, Miss N. Booth and Miss I.

Wilkinson. It is a British society, -with headquarters in London. There is some doubt of the date of the Hankow dispatch. It wis relay cu o.i i u-nu iuaj vui la not plain whether it left Hankow this morning or yesterday. 1 The steamer referred to as leaving the scene may have been the Red Cross steamer which attempted to aid the imperiled mission at Hankow, or a vessel which carried a messenger to some point where wireless or telegraph communication with distant points was possible.

TURKS GAINING ON THE ITALIANS (Continued from Page 1, Column 7.) were shot. These statements, which are likely to stimulate the agitation against Italian methods, are beginning to excite Europe. Previous to October 23, the correspondent adds, the Italians treated the Arabs with the utmost kindness and says it is only fair to say that many Italian officers 1 who looked at the affair calmly after-1 ward, deplored it.

"The troops," adds the correspondent, "made a clean sweep of that portion of the oasis in which they were fired upon from the rear, although there is no cer tain proof that any Arab in the west end of that section took part in the rising and there were vast numbers of women I Of these, nearly all the men and even the boys above a certain age were shot, while, undoubtedly, many women perished." MRS. VERMILYA GAVE VICTIMS ARSENIC (Continued from Page 1. Column 6.) were positive, showing abundant quantities of arsenic both in the contents of Mrs. Vermilya's stomach and in the 'pepper' can. "This called to my mind the symptoms of Bissonette and much that seemed peculiar about his case then, now looks clear.

"What I' then thought was an individual resentment of his system to particular foods there being nothing to call one's attention to any thought of deliberately administered poison now indicates to my mind that arsenic was being mixed in all the food we gave him. Mrs. Vermilya nursed Bissonette and was his constant attendant; I will leave to anyone his own conclusions as to who administered the arsenic, and especially in view of the day's incidents." The physician said that while he had given the woman severe treatment to counteract the effect of the poison, there still was a possibility of death because of the absorption of poison before the treatment was applied and because of her weakened condition due to previous illness. Mrs. Vermilya's attempt at suicide disclosed the fact that only fate and a distaste of eight persons for white pepper-prevented the possible addition of eight more names to the long list of deaths that have taken place beneath the Vermilya roof under circumstances now held to be suspicious.

Four policemen, two police matrons and two trained nurses, who have composed the police guard over 'the suspected woman, with her permission have prepared their food at the Vermilya home every day since they have been on guard. During all that time the deadly can of arsenic and pepper has stood prominently adjacent to the culinary equipment. None of the eight preferred the white pepper, however, and the black kind has been used" exclusively. ACTRESS SUES THEATER MAGNATES FOR $240,000 New York, Nov. 4.

Fannie Ward, the American English actress, has begun suit against Marc Klaw of Klaw Er-langer, the millionaire heads of fhe theatrical syndicate, for $240,000 for alleged breach of contract. Papers were served on Mr. Klaw two days ago. While the suit is an outgrowth of prosaic business deals, the element of mystery has been added by the assertion of Miss Ward's friends that she has been robbed of the contract upon which bases her case They say the paper was taken from her apartment in the Hotel Rector, but beyond inconvenience she will suffer nong, as she is credited with having anv attested copy of the Instrument in England. Miss Ward, who came of a one time prominent family In St.
