gates Court yesterday for the judicial
settlement of accounts submitted by
executors of the estate of Colonel Will
liam dalton Mann, who was proprietor
of "Town Topics"

$225,00o. While the executors allowed
eghty-one claims, amounting to $751;
16l, others were presented and dis
allowed. Most Of the claims were on
notes made by the publisher.

bert H. Gary, $1,000; estate of former
Magistrate Joseph N. Deuel., who was
an executor of the estate, $9,277; Lin

it seems that when the estate IS settled
there is likely to be little left.
