TREATY IS READY
Russo Japanese Document Has Been Sent to TOkio For
 Approval.

St Petersburg, June 5.-The final drafts of the Russo-Japanese com mercial treaty have been completed and sent to Tokio for approval. The answer of the emperor of Japan is expected during the latter part of the present month. The treaty, which like the Portsmouth convention is drafted in French and English, will remain in force for five years, accord ing to the Novoe remya and is more of a political than of an economical character. The protocols covering the negotiations will be made public in a yellow book when the treaty Is signed.
 The negotiations for arailroad con- vention between Russia and Japan are progressing slowly. Several new obstacles have arisen and it may be necessary for Russian and Japanese commissions to go to Manchuria and to Tokio in order to settle the dis puted questions on the spot.

E. U. LATHRoP WINS.
Judge Gager Handed Down an I'm.
 portant Decision To-day.

Edwin U. Lathrop is again victori- ous, Judge Gager this morning hay. ing decided that he was not trustee of his wife's estate. He is victorious over his own son, Harry, who brought an action against him to make him file an inventory of the estate left by the first Mrs Lathrop, This estate consisted of some $2,000 and when Lathrop junior saw his father involved in considerable liti. gation he brought this action to make him account for the money, thinking in all probability it would go in his law expenses unless saved in time. The probate court issued an order, after the usual hearing, de- creeing that Lathrop senior was trus- tee of his wife's estate and should therefore file an inventory of her property. The superior court re- verses that order and says:
 "Lathrop gave this money to his wife and she gave it back to him, and he banked 1t in her name, plac- ing $1,094.08 in the Waterbury Saw ings bank and $490.S5 in the Dime Savings bank. He gave him wife the bank books and she gave. them to her daughter. Mrs DeMott. The books were in Mrs DeMott's hands at the death of Mrs Lathrop. which took place on March 5, 1885. He drew none of this money during her lifetime and exercised none of the rights of trustee. His. position after her death is consistent. He never claimed to be her trustee, and 1t is clear that she did not leave any personal property of which he was statutory trustee. The order of the probate court is erroneous and Is hereby annulled and set aside"
 In this matter Mir Lathrop's coun- sel was Colonel Burpee and his sons was Attorney Root. who will in all probability take the matter to the supreme court.

BIG PLANS
The Famous Singer VIII Erect q Festival House on ihe
 Hudson.

New York, June 5.-Mme Lillinn Nordica, the Herald announces to-day will establish on the Hudson, near New York. Bayreuth in Amrica. New York. a Bayreuth in Amcrica noted singer will erect the Lillian Nor- dica festival house, which will be to this country what the famous operaticI institution founded by Richard Wagner and now maintained by his widow. Is to Europe.
 The site for the institution was pur- chased yesterday for $1OO,OO0, and Mme NOrdica expects that the opeha house will be ready for its formal dedication one year from next snm- mer.
 An American institute of music, where American young men and wom- en who aspire to operatic honors will be taught by the foremost teachers in the world, is included in the plans Of the famous singer.
 In a statement in which she an- nounced her plans, Mme Nordica said:
 Call my object philanthropic or what you may, but the idea of fouud- ing here in my own country an Ameri- can Bayreuth has been my life's am- bition. All the years have been sing- ing l have dreamed of such an insti- tution Now am able financially to start this great project, which I know will be an institution which after I am dead will continue to grow and enlighten the people of the country, who are now awakening to the benefits to be derived from musical education such as was not dreamed of ten years ago.
 Tn this plan of mine am assured of the hearty cooperation of men and women of wealth. The latter years of my life I hope to give entirely to see- ing this great institution grow until 1t can have no rival.
 "The buildings that will be a part of the American institute of music alone will cover four acres. Thy will be erected close to the Lillian Nordica festival house. In connection with the institute there will be dormitories and houses where the students at little ex- pense will be able to live while pur- suing their music studies.
 Europe will contribute teachers and they will be paid for their sryices moro than they can hop to earn abroad.
 "The Lillian Nordica festival house will be in every way an exact re-, production of the theater erected by Richard Wagner. The Wager operas will be given there in the summer with the greatest artists in the world.

PETITION DENIED
The Baker-Eddy Trustees We're Turned Down To-Day By
 Judge Chamberlain.

Concord, N. H., June 5.-The petit |tion of the three trustees to whom Mrs Mary Baker Eddy had transfer red her property asking that they be substituted as plaintiffs in place of "next friends" in the suit to secure an accounting of Mrs Eddy's property was denied to-day by Judge Robert N. Chamberlain of the Merrimack superior court. The trustees are Henry NJ. Baker of Bow; Josiah E. Fernald of Concord and Archibald Mcclellan of Boston. The next friends. are eGorgo w. Glover of Lead, s. D., son of Mrs Mary Baker Glover, his daughter. and Dr J. Foster Eddy of Waterbury, Vt, and adopted son, and George Baker of Bangor, cousin. The suit is for an accounting of Mrs Eddy's property. which, It is alleged, is under the con trol of Calvin A. Frye, Mrs Eddy's secretary, and other Christian Science leaders, who are named as defendants. The question of Mrs Eddy's physical and mental condition figure in the ac- ton.
 To-day's decision Is in favor of the "next friends' who oppose the petition that the trustees be substituted as plaintiffs. A long hearing was held on the question two weeks ago, at which General Frank s. Streeter of Concord argued for the trustees that they should be substituted because the original plaintiffs were hostile to Mrs Eddy, and he alleged were not acting fin good faith. Former U. s. Senator William. E. Chandler, senior counsel for the plaintiffs, opposed the petition on the ground that the trust decd was executed for the purpose of avoid ing the suit and that 1t was void owing to Mrs Eddy's alleged incompetence to make it.
 This Is the first decision in connec- ton with the case, which. by action of counsel in filing various motions, peti- tions and affidayits, presents many phases.
