Hartman, il Is said. has been Mrs.
Ntckeuzie's financial adviser since shortly
after her husbands death in spite of the
efforts of her four children to conserve
their fathers estate. In 1910. when they
saw that the fortune was likely to De
dssipatcd they had commission APP

Interest about the estate was keen
tonight because it was expected that
the bride and the chauffeur bridegroom
would return from Atlantic CITY: Inc
counle left the Marlborough Blenheim
this morning after admitting their mar
risge. They limited that they would
return to the Towers. 1t was expected
that with their arrival an interesting
situation might develop.
II il not believed that the barring OF
the gates of the Towers to Mrs CON,
nors would be great embarrassment

conceived that her father provided amply
for her in his will and that she has an
income large enough to provide her-
