GORMAN HEIRS SUE
FOR PART OF ESTATE
Shares Of American Tobacco Com.
pany Are Involved in the
Litigation.

Mrs. Grace German Johnson and
others, some Of the heirs at law of
the late Senator Arthur P. German.
yesterday filed suit against the Ameri-
can Security and Trust Company. and
others, to have the court declare that
distribution of assets made under the
dissolution decree OF the American To-
bacoo Company are payable by way OF
dividends to the life benefciaries and
not to be added to the corpus of the
estate.
The declaration alleges that at the
time of the death of Senator German
he left 600 shares of the American To-
bacco Company in the hands of his
son. Arthur 2. German. jr, with di-
rections to pay the net income thereIrom
TO his widow during her life. and the
remaining two-thirds TO be paid to each
OF his children. and at the death OF Mrs
German. 1t was directed that he should
divide the stock into six parts and place
one-sixth in some trust company for
the benefit Of each OF the six daughters
of Senator German.
The American Security and Trust
Company has taken the position that
the money derived from the sales OF
this stock should be treated as part OF
the corpus OF the estate and not be
distributed by way of dividends to the
life benefciaries, the condition OF the
trust being that the corpus OF the
estate shall go 10 the grandchildren OF
Senator German at the death of his
children.

INTERESTING PAGE FOR WOMAN AND THE HOME MANI
MRS. HUTCHINS LOSES
SUIT FOR ALLOWANCE
Widow Defeated Again in an Effort to
Have Court Increase Her

The request of Mrs. Rose Keeling
Hutchins for an allowance out of the
estate Of her husband, Stilson Hutchins,
was yesterday denied by Justice Ander-
son, pending the litigation involving the
probate of three wills left by her husband.
Mrs. Hutchins noted an appeal to the
Court of Appeals. In her petition Mrs
Hutchins tells the court she Is in neces-
sitous circumstances, although entitled to
receive an income Of $50, 900 annually from
her share in the estate. Although her
husband has been dead thirteen months
the widow declares she has not had one
cent OF his estate.
The latest will has been attacked by
Lee Hutchins. a son OF Mr.. Hutchins, but
Mrs. Hutchins claims that under the terms
of either of the three wills she is entitled
to more than one-third of the income,
and that her right also gives her one-third
interest.
Justice Anderson held that Mrs Hutch
ms must first renounce her right TO share
in the estate under the terms OF the wills
and stand on her dover rights, or accept
the provision of the wills and waive her
dover rights before the court can take
up the question Of larger allowance.

The men operating these shovels form

so quickly and accurately do they respond
to the guiding hand Of the man at the

man to take out the greatest number Of
cubic yards of material from the cut dur

among the shovels that they remove a
great deal more earth during the day than
il was originally expected the shovel was
capable Of doing.
1t is hardly conceivable but neverthe-
less true, that this spirit OF rivalry and
pride felt by the men for their shovels has
pushed the capacity up to such an extent
that one shovel has a record of digging
