ALL is IN MRS. EDDY'S FAVOR,
Even Her Own Request to Continue In
vestigaticn AS to Her Competency
Is Denied by the Court.

Concord, n. IT,. Aug PA sudden
though not wholly unexpected ending
of the masters hearing in connection
with the suit in equity brought by rel
ativcS for an accounting of the prop
crty "f Mrs. Mary Baker G. Eddy,
header Of the Christian Science faith.
came III the superior court here TO-DAY
when ex-senator William =. Chandler.
senior counsel for the relatives or next
fricndS. announced TO the board Of
masters that he had filed a motion
with the Supnri0" court to dismiss the
action The suit WAS brought on the
ground that Mrs. Eddy being incom-
potent on account of age ana infirm-
ties IL manage her own affairs was the
victim of persons associated with her
IL Christian Science work. who were
named as defendants in the equity suit.
III" masters. three in number. were ap-
roint"d by the court to determine the
question Of Mrs. Fddy's competency.
The announcement that petition
for the dismissal Of the suit had been
filed With the superior court had been
anticipated ON account of many private
conferences which had been held be
tween opposing counsel In fact it
was predicted with confidence by some
interested persons last night. that an
agreement would be reached before the
opening Of the hearing today.
The reason for the petition for dis
miSSal. as made known ut the hearing
today by Former Senator William i.
Chandler was the belief that success
along the lines desired could NOT be
obtained. General Frank s. Strectcr.
counsel for Mrs Eddy, objected to Il
dismiss Of the case before the QueS-
tinn Of competency had been decided
Ivy the masters in view Of the POSSIBLE
ity that after Mrs. Eddy's death at
tcmpts might be made in behalf Of the
relatives to break her Will.
Tho masters decided. however. that
under the commission given them by
the court. they could not proceed in
view nf the filing Of q motion with the
court to dismiss the case ana an
nounccd that they would 50 report.
With the termination of the proceed
ings before the masters. the case re
vcrtS To the superior court on the
uues; ion of the petition for dismissal
of the original suit. There is little
doubt among those interested that
Judge Chamberlain. before which the
action was brought. will grant the mo-
ton.

There are many reasons for TINS act
