MRS.k. is THE BANKER
RECEIVER MORRISON HASN'T ANY
RIGHT TO HANDLE ALFRED S.
KITTsON's ALLOWANCE
THAT is FOR HIS WIFE TO DO
Judge Kelly Holds That as Guardian
Appointed by the Probate Court,
Mrs. Violet X. Has the Legal
Right to Draw the Monthly Al
to Reopen the Estate.

Judge Kelly, in district court yester-
day, decided that Samuel Morrison, as
receiver in the estate Of Alfred S. Kilt
son, fnsolvent, is in the position Of a
French nobleman with only the title,
but not the power to handle any cash.
The question came up on a controversy
as to whether the receiver or Violet K.
Kittson, as guardian under an order of
probate court, should have power to
handle the $1,000 annual allowance
which Kittson receives under his ia
TIERS will in monthly installments of
s16666.
Kfttson was adjudged incompetent
on April %, 1897, and Violet K. Ktttson
was appointed as his guardian. On
June %, 1898, the district court, on the
petition of several creditors, appointed
Samuel Morrison as receiver. Then
both receiver and guardian laid claim
to the monthly allowance received by
Kittson out of the estate, and the suit
involved the allowance for two months
In his decision sustaining the guar
dian the court says that the district
court has no Jurisdiction in the matter
as opposed to the probate court, and
that the order of the district court In
appointing receiver. il not void for
want Of Jurisdiction, conferred no pow
CT or authority upon the plaintiff Nor
rison is enjoined from in any way In
terfering with any of the property or
estate of Alfred s. Kittson, then and
now under the management of the pro-
bate court.
The heirs of the estaterof Norman 8.
Kittson yesterday filed an appeal in
district court against the, order Of pro-
bate court admitting and allowing the
fifth statement of the ST. Paul Trust
company, as executors. The heirs ask
that the fifth statement of the trust
company be considered sin connection
with the four preceding statements.
which practically constitutes reopen
ing of the whole matter of the receiv-

Discussion of Plans Awaits Arrival
of Manager Comiskey

DUBUQUE, Iowa, Feb 2-Western league
base ball men in town today informally dis
cussed league affairs. They postponed action
pending the arrival of Manager Comskey, of
st. Paul, tomorrow.
Manager Lotus, of the Columbus club, says
the situation concerning the removal of the
cIub to Cleveland has not changed, and can
not until 1t has been determined what will be
done at ST. Louis with the present Cleveland
CUB II this latter matter can be arranged
satisfactorily, Columbus will go to Cleveland.
From all accounts there is plenty of fnan-
cial backing in Cleveland for a Western
league club What is more, Lotus is popular
IN that town and can count on the unqualified
support Of the newspapers. In word, the
times are ripe for a Cleveland invasion on
the part of the Western league people. Frank
Robson has evidently clinched his hold on
the st. Louis plant. If he has solved the St
Louis problem Patsy Tebeau's wandering stars
have played their last game in Cleveland, and
from now on will represent st. Louis in the
big circuit. Evidently Lotus has received
some inside information from st. Louis in the
last day or two, and is eager to talk over the
situation with his associates In the Western
league. To sum 1t all up. the chances are
more than even that LOTUS can secure the
consent Of the Robisons and the other Ma
tional league officials to appropriate the Cleve-
land territory In case he decides to make the
iumD.

their papers is comparatively small,
they only represent a very small pro-
portion of the number who will event

The body of William TilIman the old miser

brother John Tillman, had lived the lives Of
recluses for nearly twenty years was buried

should at once inter the remains, but the
brother would not consent to this disposition
OF the body, Claiming to be financially able
to bear the expense Of proper funeral.
His idea Of a proper funeral corresponded
with the miserable existence which he and
his brother had lived so many years, when
yesterday afternoon a plain pine coffin was
carried into the howell and the body uncere-
monously placed in the box. A little later
the coffin was carried out to a hearse which
followed by solitary carriage in which rode
the surviving brother hurried away TO the
cemetery. There was no religious ceremony
nor formality of any kind. This, John TILL
