missaIin Court at Concord, N. H.
streeter Asks to Have Woman,s Com
potency Fully Determined Now
to Avoid a VIII Contest.

Concord. N. IA sudden though
not wholly unexpected ending of the
masters hearing in connection with
the suit in equity brought by rela-
lives for an accounting of the prom
srty of Mrs. Mary Baker G.. Eddy.
leader of the Christian Science faith
came in the Superior Court room
here when former Senator William
e, Chandler, senior counsel for the
relatives, or next friends, announced
to the board of masters that they had
filed a motion with the Superior
Court to dismiss their action.
The announcement that a 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 between opposing counsel.
The reason for the petition for
dismissal, as made known at the
hearing by Mr.. Chandler, was the be-
lief that succes along the lines de-
sired could not be obtained and the
appropriateness of any immediate re-
suit of a decision in favor of the next
friends in the exact issue as now

and Disadvantages to be endured
both before and after such a decision.
General Frank S. Streeter, coun-
sci for Mrs. Eddy, objected to q dis
missaI of the case before the question
of competency had been decided by
the masters, in view of the possibility
that after Mrs. Eddy's death attempts
might be made in behalf of the rela-
tives to break her will, in which, he
intimated, provisions had been made
for carrying on the work in which
she is interested. The masters de-
cided, however, that under the in
structions given them by the Court
they could not proceed in view uf the
filing of a motion with the Court to
dismiss the case, and announced that
they would so report.
With the termination of the pro-
ceedings before the masters the case
reverts to the Superior Court on the
question of petition to dismiss the
original suit. There is little doubt
among those interested that Judge
Chamberlain, before whom the action
was brought, will grant the motion.
The suit withdrawn was brought in
the Merrimaek County Superior
Court on March 1 last by George w.
Glover, of Lead, S. D., Mrs. Eddy's
son, and his daughter, Mary Baker
Glover, and other relatives of the
Christian Science leader, as next
friends, against Calvin A. Frye, secre-
tary of Mrs. Eddy; Lewis Strang, as
sistant secretary; Herman Herring
and Irving G. Tomlinson, of Concord:
Alfred Farlow, Ira C. Knapp and
Joseph Armstrong, of Boston;
Stephen A. Chase, of Fall River, and
Edward A. Ktmbalh, ofsChicago, all
prominent in Christian Science cir
cIes.
Alfred Farlow, of the Christian
Science Publication Committee, one
Of the defendants, after the dismissal
Of the suit, gave out a statement in
which he characterized the suit as a
gigantic farce, an effort to annoy
and discredit Mrs. Eddy and stigma

which all differences have for four
teen years been successfully adjusted
by a conference committee.
Stirs st. Louis Unions.
On the failure of the strike the In

declared a boycott against the Bucks
company and its product, inserted
the company's name in its unfair"
list and published it in the union pa

Joined in the boycott and gained its
Endorsement by the Central Trades
and Labor Union, of St. Louis, and
the Metal Trades Council, also of st.
Louis, both subordinate unions of the
American Federation.
In November, 1906, at the annual
convention of the American Fedora
ton in Minneapolis, the products of
the company were placed on the "we-
