Whether or no Nina Clifford, other

will have the sole handling of the resi-
due of the interest of AL 8. Kittson
in his portion of the estate of the late
Commodore Kittson will be decided
next Saturday. An application was

day was made by the Northwestern

coal company alleges that Mr.. Kilt

the amount he had coming from the
estate Of his father was in excess of
$4,000, while he was in debt to the eX-
tent of 100000. 1t is alleged that Mrs.
Steinbrecher then had judgments
against Kittsop to the extent Of $10,05O
These judgments were obtained in suits
brought on promissory notes.
The assignment to Mrs Steinbrecher
is to the effect that the st. Paul Trust
company, the executor of the Kittson
will, pay to Mrs. Steinbrecher all the
moneys that AL 8. Kittson may owe 10
her, before settling with him.
