Judge Tuley yesterday dismissed the litigation involving the estate of the late James W. Reedy on a stipulation of set tlement. Mr. Reedy was president of the J. W. Reedy Elevator Company and owned most of the stoek. He died in October, 1889. leaving an estate esti mated at a quarter of a million, and be sides the widow, Mrs. Delia K. Reedy, the heirs-at-law were Ellen T. Reedy, a sister, and other brothers and sisters, William I. Reedy, of Cincinnati, a nephew, and William' II. Reedy, of Chicago, a nephew, also survived him. Mrs. Reedy was a high-salaried employe of Marshall Field & Co., when Reedy married her in 1884. A will executed by the deceased gave to the widow real estate worth $10,000 aud the residue of the estate went to the sis ters and nephews. Over the objections of Mrs. Reedy Judge Knickerbocker ad mitted the will to probata and the widow took an appeal, which will now be dis missed. Then a bill was filed by the widow to set aside the will and for an accounting as to $00,000 of accounts. Mrs. Reedy claimed that her husband did not, assign the accounts to the elevator company, but it developed that Mr. Reedy did transfer them to the company shortly before his death. The widow alleged that her small bequest was the result ot undue influence on jfche part of the sister and nephews. Mrs. lleedy said she was not permitted to be near her hus-1 band when the will was executed, and that a systematic effort was made to poison his mind against her. In an an swer the sister aud nephews denied tbe widows allegations, and asserted that all of Mr. Reedy's intentions were carried out, and that he had been estranged from his wife a year before his last illness. She returned to him shortly before his death and nursed bins in his last sickness, but it was said that good feeling between the couple was never restored, and Reedy desired that his wife should have as little of his property as possible. Application on behalf of the widow was made to Judge Tuley for a receiver for the J. W. Reedy Elevator Company and the ac counts which Mrs. Reedy claimed to be entitled to, they being personal property. The cuiw-4 held that the accounts had been assigned to the company, and de nied a receiVn^ Yesterday, Knight & Brown, representTBjfthe sister and neph ews, appeared before Judge Tuley and submitted the compromise which ends the fight, and takes the J. W. Reedy Ele vator Company and the Reedy estate out of court. The sister and nephews of Mr. Reedy have paid the widow $85,000 in cash in full settlement and she has re leased all her claims and title to any part of the property and the elevator business. In her suit Mrs. Reedy claimed that her husband conveyed half of his stock in the Reedy Elevator Company to her, but the company, which has big factories in New York and Chicago, now holds papers in which the widow renounces all claims against the estate. Mrs. Reedy retains the real estate left to her by the will. The firm of Knight & Brown that BO successfully conducted this will case on behalf of the devisees named in the will is the same that lately recovered the suit of $44,000 against the Elevated Rail- j road Co., which was so much commented upon, and is composed of Clarence A. Knight and Paul Brown, both former McHenry boys. These two cases alone would place this firm among Chicago's most prominent lawyers. WfthProiwrTrlrtin^s, Silk, Satin, Velvet, PlmH, Cashmere.

The sick, feeble and failing gentle- man from Pennsylvania, respected and i'r ~ honored by all men of both parties, Hon. - $am J. Randall, was asking fifteen minutes <* extension of his time, in order that he "1^** ' might deliver the concluding portion of | f v hiw tariff speech, which was against the policy of his party. Mr. Mills, of Texas, 3;, the leader of his party, hurried down the |*,t s aisle and shouted, "I object," and that *1 one objection prevented the "unanimous • i consent" which was asked by Mr. Randall. The ex-speaker did not turn his head to look at the objector, nor appeal for con sideration at his hands; but quietly sank into his seat, humiliated, but uncomj plaining. The next speaker on the list for that day was Hon. William McKinley, of Ohio. He immediately arose, and said in a clear ringing voice: "Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentleman from Pennsyl vania, fifteen minutes of my time." Im mediately there broke forth a storm of applause from all over the House, both on the floor and iu the galleries. It was one of the most gracious deeds of Mr. McKinley's life. Mr. Randall proceeded with his speech and finished it, aftermost eloquently expressing his appreciation of the courtesy oif tbe young gentleman from Ohio. A Few Candid Words. Few people in tie country realize that a crisis has arrived. A crisis that if not passed by the Republican party in safety, will have an effect on the State of Illinois that will long be felt by our own State, and perhaps by the Union itsejf. For years has the Democratic party bad its eye on'Illinois. The time has now arrived when it will redouble its efforts to carry it. We all know that the census is now being taken, and the State will be redistricted when the census is completed; and all this will occnr before another State election is held. Also, a United States Senator is to be elected 1o succeed Senator Farwell. Now wc surely cannot be blind enough to fail seeing the disastrous effect of a Democratic legisla ture. In case that occurred a Democratic Senator would be elected to the United States Senate from Illinois. But, what would be worse, and what the Democrats are working for with heart and soul is to get possession of our legislature so as to gerrymander the State--that is, re-dis trict it in an unfair way, so as to have all the Republican districts strongly Re publican, rolling up immense Republican majorities, yet, under the law, unable to elect but three representatives in spite of their number; and every Democratic dis trict just strong enough to be safe, thus electing their candidates by small ma jorities, aud being represented as well as the Republicans in the adjoining district So having the State in their absolute control until another census is taken ard the State again re-districted. So the minority hope to rule the majority, and so they will unless the Republicans wake upwind put up their best men and elect them. Now is the time above all others that they must be on the alert. They must now put up their strongest and most influential men. Put up men that are able to Btand up and fight such schemes. Put up men that have the brains, the nerve and strength to defeat such Demo cratic plans; that are strongly Republi can. and have shown themselves capable of holding offices of responsibility and trust.--Trite Republican.
