administrator, or knowing that a composition agreement  or  other
arrangement  for the benefit of creditors has been or is about to
be made, he
    (a)    conveys,   transfers,   removes,  conceals,  destroys,

any  interest  in  the  debtor's estate, or any other information
which he is legally required to furnish to such administrator.
