Oable Bruce and John William Marshall, attorneys of Baltimore, giving notice that if James and Michael Manahan or their heirs will aomtnxmioate with the advertisers they will learn something to their advantage, is a step towards the settlement of an estate amounting to 113.879 30. James and Miohal Manahan. or their heirs, if any of them are living, are entitled to this estate. If neither of the Manahans. who are supposed to have resided in Frederick county, is still living, the estate will go to Mrs.

Margaret O.I Kernan, of Baltimore. The facts in the case are told in a petition filed in court in Baltimore by the Safe Deposit and Trnst trustee nnder the will of the late Julia Kernan, asking the court to decide whether Margaret O. Kernan la the proper person to receive the estate. Julia Kernan, the petition reoltes, came to Baltimore from Oanada in 1841, bringing with her an only son, William Kernan. She enteied the employ of the Hoffman family, who were among the pioneer residents of that oity, and was the nurse of Mr.

R. Onrzon Hoffman when he waa a child. Mra. Kernan was employed in the family about 3fty years, or nntil her death, Daoam- bar 1891. At the time of her death she was 7-i years of age.

The aged nurse never spoke of her family or her past life. She resided at one time In Frederick oonnly. Tois information, as well as othar faots oonneo- sed with her history, were obtained from Mr. R. Oarzon Hoffman.

Mrs. Karnan, waen she died, lef a will in which she bequeathed her entire sstate to the Safe DepDslt aud Trust Company, as trustees. Trie corporation was directed to preserve her investments, jut was given the power to reinvest; ihem from time to time in good and safe securities. The income, the testatrix directed, was to be paid to her son, Wiliam Kernao, during his life into his own hand and not into the hands of any other person, whether claiming hts an- hority or not. At her sou's death the estate was to pass to his children; but in event that he died without issue the ccjmeof the eata'e WAS to the testatrix's two brothers.

Miohael ana James Manahan, and at the death of the survivors to (heir ohiUreq, William Karuac, sue son of tha tea tatrix, died Deoembar 10, 1903, leaving no children, bus a vidow, Mrs. 1Car garet O. Reman, survives him. She is the claimant of the estate. Immediately upon ths death of William Kernan the trust company endeavored to find Michael and James Manahan, the brothers of Mrs.

Kernac, of children or descendants or theirs, but up to the present time these efforts have been fruitless. The petitioner says that John William Marshall, a member of the Baltimore bar, was employed by the trust company in May, 1901, to assist in its Inquiries, and that, although by the moat diligent search, some thirty Manahan families have been found. It has baen nnable to secure satiefaotory evidenoa to establish any relationship between them and the two missing brothers. Mrs. Margaret O.

Kernan, the widow of William Kernan, has made claim to tfae entire estate. Her claim Is baaed on the theory that James and Miohael Manahan are dead, and that she is entitled to the prooerty through her hns- band, William Kernan. As the trustee created by the terms of the will, the Safe Deposit and Trust Company asks the court to assume the responsibility ot of distributing the estate, provided Mrs. Kernan proves her claim to It, which she proposes to do. The estate in the hands of the trust company consists of the following: 1000 Denver and Rio Grande -1 per cent, gold bonds.

65. $2000 Northern Pacific 41, 14000 Wabash Railroad equipment sinking fund 5a, $li8lH 68. Seven ground rents of $45 each on Nos. 132, 124, 136, 142, 1-11, 168 and Ifi3 Ohestnnt avenue. Hampden, $5250.

Til the State Might Have Gotten More Money Waltlnic. But Guv WAI Held Saja Bale i rrobloui. The State Board of Pabllo Works, by a majority vote, yesterday accepted the bid of Mr. Fairfax S.

Landatreet. vice president of the Western Maryland Railroad, for the State's of O. O. oanal stock, which was $155,000. The sale was opposed by State Treasurer Yandlver.

Mr. Vandlver, In support of hla position against the tale of the oana). submitted the following interview with the late John K. Cowen. which was published on February 8.

"The price at which it is proposed to acquire the oanal, when capitalized at 5 per amounts to $1.804.875. This price is totally inadequate to the value of the property, which it is proposed to purchase. The oanal as a roadbed, graded and bridged, throughout its entire length, is worth at the lowest calculation, without counting the tunnel or aqueducts, at least $20,000 a mile. The total length is 184 miles, and it would, therefore, be worth at least $3,080.000. But there is a magnificent tunnel which affords the one point of aooess to Western Maryland, by which a railroad oould 38 constructed without having heavy grades to overcome or several nnnels to build.

This tunnel alone is oertainly worth 51.000.000 to any railroad desiring to construct a line along the oanal. The covering the streams between Cumberland and Georgetown are erous, and they are built of the most solid masonry, thus relieving the raiK road from tha necessity of building expensive bridges and piers; and these aqueducts alone, it is estimated, would worth to the railroad company from $1,5000,000 to All that would ba required would be to fill up ihe space now coon pied by water i earth, and the railroad tuen would have he moat magnifiaant bridgas to bi 'ound upon any line in this country. It well known that there are large laonnta of property In the city of Oatn- berland now occupied bv tha oanal ylng between the West Virginia Cental and the Baltimore and Ohio which manufacturing purposes would be a ralnable property and worth, it is siid, Irom two to three hundred thousand dollars. There is property la the Dts- iriot of Columbia valued at from $1 000,000 to $1.600.000. And now the State of Maryland is ask 3d to give away all of this property for i i i enm of $15.000 a year." Mr, Landiptreat, who wag present, asked Treasurer Vandiver If he waa aware of the faot that this si me gentleman, Mr.

Oowen, or at least the interests he three years later made a bid of several hundred dollars less for the property. This statement Mr. Vandtver confirmed. After the sale Governor Warfield said: "Tne higheaS bidder now represents a railroad system that is constructing a competing line from the West I Baltimore city, ao that the aooeptaToe Mr. Lsndstreet's bid will promote jcn what people of Baltimore aud Maryland have wanted and needed-competing railroad from the oaal field and the great West to Baltimore oity.

"The final disposition of the State' interest in the Chesapeake and Ohl. Canal should ba hailed by the people a the solution of a 'problem this has cos the taxpayers of the State a mil liona of dollars. "Strange aa it may seem, there hay been no substantial public protests a this time agalust the sale of the State' interest In the oanal. "Time alone will prove whether we have acted wisely in this matter. I have exercised my bant and am content to abide the i of the as to the wisdom of my action CITIZENS' NATIONAL BAXK.
