The estate among other things left the home of Mrs, Gardner on Main street to the town for library purposes but the town declined the house and by arrangement with the principal heir | [the housc was sold and a bronze | tablet erccted in the library from the ! fund thus established. | Owns Maine Island Mr. Gilpatric is joint owner of an lisland at Juniper:Point, Maine, with | Harry I%ogdick, said here to be a L well known New York clergyman, who | has a home on the igland. A mtor- boat, said to have cost $1,500 runs be- tween the island and the mainland. This boat it has been known here is known as the Mary Gardner in mem- | ory of Mrs. Gardner and is said to | have been purghased by Mr. Gilpatric out of his fees as administrator of the estate. Still Another Estate, another estate of which Mr. was administrator was that | of the late Joseph Cutler who died lleaving a considerable fortune. A | final accounting was rendered by the ‘I"XI‘L‘UU)I' but a trust fund of $40,000 was established out of the estate for | an incompetent relative of the de- | ceased and Mr. Gilpatric was trustee of this fund. Tt is learned here that | 835,000 of this fund was invested in | {he real. estate in Hartford which | housed a market and which did not| | prove financially successful. The | property was taken over by Mr. Gil patric last January and there are se | eral mortgages on it. The remaining | $5,000 of the Cutler estate is invested | [in other sccurities. | So far as could be learned these {are the only estate funds in the pru- | bate court here with which Mr. Gil patric was concernd. Mrps, Gilpatric, the daughter of a| prominent and wealthy mill owner hiere was left a considerable fortune | from the estate of her father which | was divided among a number of heirs. Whether Mrs. Gilpatric's fortune has been involved in any of the state | treasurer's financial operations is purcly a matter of speculation here. | Among the many ventures of the !tate treasurer was the purchase of an interest in=the Hill Top stables, established here by a local syndicate of which Dr. Frank Baldwin, Frank Witman and others were members. | The stables here housed (wo race| horses one of which was Fairworthy which has heen raced on the Wor- cester and Norwich tracks during the | summe ! 0 B c Li i i ¥ tr Stitl patri b v o S th o P B | crificd Rumors, My, Gilpatric's family and the bank dircctors and officials have from the first maintained complete silence on the subject of any possible shortage in Mr. Gilpatric’'s accounts at the bank or any private financial reasons which might have impelled his at- tempt on his life. The silence has led to a host of unverified rumors | with reference to shortages and their | amount and extent. It was stated today that condition of the Gardner estate account and possibly others would not be fully -known until the sate treasurer was able to make a statement While ahle to converse to some extent his condition is not anted any extensive inquiry of | «”to financial matters, it is stated. | Was Too Generous. | The general sentiment of Putnam | | people that if the state treasurer's | tinancial affairs have become involved |t is due to his generosity to his| | friends. He had been reputed to be “unable to refuse a friend” who came to him for financial or other assist- ance. It is known here that onfmany oceasions where friends approached him for financial assistance without collateral he had written them his personal checks and taken notes with- out urance that the note-makers would be able to redeem them.

It is thought the Irench premier is returning with the approval of his ministerial colleagues and of Marshal Foch to the evacuation of the Ruhr by the French military forces under conditions such as to assure accept- ance by the Germans. The first of the three protocols necessary to put the Dawes plan in operation was signed on Saturday by fhe Germans and representatives of the reparation commission. This document embodies formal accept- ance of the Dawes plan, the repara- tion commission on its part releasing all German assets, making them avaflable as security for the proposed loan to Germany. Ot the remaining protocols, one iy between the allies and Germany and the other contains an agreement: among the allied nations. The effec- {iveness of the one signed Saturday depends upon these two, a coficlusion which in turn hangs on the abllity of Premier Herriot and the Germans to get together following the ‘premier’s return from Paris.
