In the course Of the proceedings taken By
Robert L. Cutting the third to discover how
much there IL Of the trust estate left By his
grandfather. Robert the 1rst. in which he
had q eontinGent interest under the grand
fathers will, he has discovered that his father.
Robert the second. who was one OF the trus-
tees with q life interest In the estate however
he may have managed the principal thereof.

disinherited Robert the third. because Robert
married Minnie seligmsn. the actress.

fore Surrogate Arnold yesterday. The motion
before the Surrogate was made By young Cut

had the power OF disposing OF II By will to his
lineal descendants, but they only had life
interest themselvea Robert the second and
Walter both qualified as executors. but Il ap-
peared on the argument that the estate was
mainly managed By Robert the second. By
codicil Robert the third was permitted. whom
he should come Of age or upon his fathers

fathers will He came OF age four years ago.
but did not qualify until Jan. 20. after he had
learned. as Is admitted OF the provisions Of
his fathers will

these facts. and John VI Bowers opposed any
accounting at this time. He contended that,

filed and the executors had not qualified. no
