CHICAGO, March 1.—Mrs. Wilson Ml!-? ner arrived in Chicago today. She was | met at the Thirty-first-street station of | the Lake Shore by two women in a closed | carriage. She ran quickly from the train | to the carrlage. The vehicle was driven j to the Yerkes home at 3201 Michigan ave- nue. When Mrs, Mizner loocked out and saw a group of persons standing in front of her home she waved her band out of the cab window at the driver and cried excitedly: *“Drive on!” The carriage turned and the party was driven to the Auditorinm Annex. The report that Mrs. Mizner has taken a hand in open hostility to the co-eXecutors | of the will of her former husband, Charles T. Yerkes, was not denied in- Chicago to- day, Clarence A. Knight, legal adviser of Mre. Yerkes for years; Charles B. Yerkes, son of the late traction magnate, and Louis 8. Owsley, Yerkes' secretary and executor of the will, all refused to talk of thé situation. It s expected Mrs. Mizner will remain in Chicago for several weeks, at least un- tll after the probating of her late hus- band’s will on March 16. The exact rea- son for her sudden departure from New York does not appear on the surface, At- torney Knight did not deny that it was on his advice that Louis 8. Owsley sum- moned Mrs. Mizner to Chicago. One of the first things to be done here, it is expected, will be to have an under- standing between Mrs. Mizner and Ows- | ley on the future status of Wilson Mizner. It has been said Mre. Mizner, in the ree- toration of her confidence in her . hus- band, | resentative in all affairs touching | Yerkes property. This arrangement, has been said, will be highly unsatista | tery to Charles E. Yerkes and Owsley, | who will have much to do with the set- | tling of the big estate.
