NEW COUNSEL ENTERED.
Answer of Defendants in Eddy Case
AnxiousIy Awaited.

COncorn. n. II. April Following the
filing of the motion to substitute Henry
NJ. Baker, Josiah E. Fornald, and Archi-
bald Mcclellan as plaintiffs in place Of
the original plaintiffs in the equity suit.
Eddy versus Frye, in Superior Court this
afternoon, counsel for the defendants
appeared personally before the court and
entered as counsel for record their ap-
pearances. Attorney General Eastman
stated to the court that he desired the
name Of his legal firm, Eastman, Scam
mon & Dearborn, entered as counsel for
the New Hampshire defendants.
Hon. William A. Morse, of Boston, also
appeared in person and stated to the court
that he desired the names Of Hon. Sar.del
j. Elder and himself entered as counsel
for the Massachusetts defendants. and
also for Edward A. Kimball the Chicago
defendant. Both Messrs Eastman and
Morse asked for fifteen days in which 10
file an answer to the original bill, and this
time was granted by Judge Chamber
lin.
Counsel for George W. Glover and the
other plaintiffs admit that the document
filed in court by Gen. Streetcr to-day is a
surprise, bat that the case is to end with
this latest move they do not for mo-
ment admit.
From the other side it is stated with
apparent good authority that the move
which Mrs. Eddy's counsel has effected
by having the trust deed executed had
been under contemplation and in course
of preparation many months before
March l. when the suit was instituted.
The absolute silence of George W.
Glover almost from the day that he be-
came a party TO the original bill is by
some considered rather suggestive, and
that possibly he regrets his action in
view of the handsome trust fund which
would have been placed in his name but
for the suit, and from which he is now
cut of.
Following his appearance in Superior
Court this afternoon the Hon. w. NJ.
Morse, with Gen. Streeter. visited Pleas
ant View and had a fifteen minutes in
teryiew with Mrs. Eddy He stated. on
returning from Pleasant View, that he
found Mrs. Eddy in unimpaired health.

German Scientist Explains New Method

Berlin, April 2.-Photography Of the
breath is the latest science. This was
explained yesterday at the annual meet
ing of the Roentgen-ray conference, at
which, cineomatographic pictures of the
breathing of sick and healthy persons
were thrown upon a screen. The inven-
tor of the method is Or. Koehler. of
Wiesbaden. His system shows accurately
the sympathetic action of the lungs and
heart in connection with inspiration and
expiration.
1t is expected that the discovery viii

cheaper.
the principal cause of loss" Mr..
Schwab added, 'is the succession OF un-
reasonable delays caused by govern
mental red tape On account of the de-
lays caused by inspections, changes in
specifications. and so on, the progress
of the work for the government Is slow
and costly I have sometimes thought
! that it was possible to turn out more
tonnage in steel for "a private customer
in a month and a half than can be turned

Mr.. Schwab said that his decision in
regard TO the governmental work did not
anDIv TO the manufacture of ordnance and
arTnor plate at the Bethlehem works.
This business, he said, would be con-
tinued, as the Company's new facilities
would give it a greater diversity OF
products and it would not, in the future,
be as dependent on the profits from
ordnance and armor plate as in the past.
The report of the company for the year
ended December 81 last showed a deficit
of 81. $50 l97, as compared with surplus
