ADVISED MRS. HUTCH|NS
REGARDING ESTATE
Trustee Makes Answer to Pc.
tition That Bond Be Re-
quired of Him.

Despite what he says were explicit in
structions from S.ilson Hutchins not to
discuss the latter's business affairs with
Rose Keeling Hutchins, William j. Dante,
trustee of the Hutchins estate, today, in
his answer to the petition of Mrs. Hutch
ms that he be required to give bond for
the future management Of the estate. de-
clares he did advise her of the condition
Of the estate since the Illness of the hus-
band, and that she voluntarily discon-
lnued the conferences with him.
Mr.. Dante admits he has had confer
ences with and given information about
the status of the estate to Walter s.
and Lee NJ. Hutchins. sons of Mr..
Hutchins, and also to the representative
OF the latter's infant granddaughter.
The trustee says he made monthly state
ments to Stilson Hutchins previous to the
illness of the financier, and secured his
appreciation of the manner In which he
has conducted the affairs of the estate
The present petition of Mrs. Hutchins
is characterized by the trustee in his
answer az an effort TO seek revision
and REORGANIZATION of the affairs of
Stilson Hutchins. which had been set
tied and adjusted with him at time
when he was physically able and com
petent TO attend and did attend to his
own affairs. He tells the court that Mrs.
Hutchins well knows her husband would
in no wise countenance the present pro-
ceedings We're he informed in any wise
concerning them.
He charges that the application OF Mrs.
Hutchins is made for the purpose of
harassing and annoying him because. he
declares she knows a full and detailed
statement of her husbands affairs was
furnished at the hearing before Louis A.
Dent auditor OF the District Supreme
Court.
Broke Off Conferences.
Through Attorneys BrandenburE &
Brandenburg, the trustee says, after jan
uary L. 1911. Mrs. Hutchins refused to
allow him to visit or converse with her
husband Stilson Hutchins. and broke off
all conferences with the trustee when she
instituted lunacy proceedings to have her
husband adjudgcd insane. Since that time
Mr.. Dante says his actions have been
governed by advice of counsel.
In conclusion, the trustee says he is
ready and willing to file an accounting
with the court as soon as the equity
cause in which he applied for the help
of the court in administering his trust
is ready TO proceed.
