Estate.

A Batch Of CJsims Against tho
State Allowed.

Henry G. Yaeger, who was the admins
traitor of the estate Of the lat0 William
A.. Dewar, lost a case in the supreme court
yesterday. Dewar was Interested in some
valuable real estate With Joseph Davis In
this city. Several years x he made II
trip TO New York City. He registered at
the Astor house. Afew days after his mr.
rival he suddenly disappeared, and to this
day nothing has besn heard Of him. Yae-
gers suit, which he won in tho old terri
torial probate court WAS for fees due him
a. an administrator of the estate. Jaeger
appointed administrator by the pro-
bate court Of this county in June, 1887.
The apprsisement IND inventory Of the e.
tate, approved shortly afterward. showed
$ss4.83 in money and a Large amount OF
real estate. making "A total Of $34, 44G.s3
In April, 1889, Yaeger filed his final &C
count and petition for distribution. The
account discloses the whole amount of
m oney received by him from sales of the
real estate and other sash receipts is Bill, F.
361. %; claims paid, $8,397.2S and expenses
of administration, $2.954.22. In the latter
fees, a percentage on $36, 79f.33, which was
the appraised value Of the estate.
A. j. Steele and Lewis Davis, the pur-
chasers from and assiRnees of the heirs of
the estate, and the persons to whom n !
distribution was to be made, objected to
the final account Of the administrator in
that he had charged his fees upon $3G,974.33
whereas he should ave charged upon $1l.-
361.2 % which was the SUM actually received
by him upon sales Of the property and other
cash sources. The administrator ~contended
that he was entitled to fees under certain
provisions of the probate practice act. The
probate court held with the administrator,
and IN May 1889 overruled the objections of
the distributes and allowed the final &C
count with the fees az claim
cd by the administrator. The case is
next metjin the district court, in April 1880.
after the state had come into life and the
probate court had ceased to exist, and its
Jurisdiction and business had been trans
ferred to the district court. The appeal
being heard, the district court made an order
reversing the probate court upon it, ruling
that the administrator was entitled to ST.
sol. n fees AZ a percentage of $50, 446. so, the
appraised value of the estate, and that he
was to be only allowed $484.45 as a percent
age on $11,361.4 money actually received
by him from the sale of property.
