COLGAN'S LAWYER REBATES RELATIVES
 IN PROBATE COURT
(continued from Page 1)


 Attorney steIber, who appears for Mrs. Co1gan. reviewed the history of Colgan's attendance at the probate court and the compartments to pri- vate sanitariums and to the state hospital at Norwich. He said that Mrs. Colgan'se only purpose in bring ing the action was to insure that her son would not waste his. property and become 8 public, charge. He said she was actuated in bringing the petition only by. love, for her son. He read from a statement by Judge Hal len in which the latter complimented Dr. Egan for his services as conserva- tor for Colgan.
 Attorney Steiber. who had the last word with the court, wAxed rather warm. At a previous hearing Judge Banks had referred to Attorney Stef- ber's "heridftary instincts'' and re- plying to Judge Banks reference to fools Attorney Steiber said:
 While it is rather apart from this case, I know of another fool who kept you from being attorney general of E this state and that fool was Col. U1l= man of New Haven" |s. Following this exchange of words Judge Banks hastened to offer an apology for anything in his remarks which might be construed that he had any feeling against any man because of his race or religion. His apology, apparently. was not very convincing to Attorney Stefber.
