New York. Oct. 2.-Following the
announcement that Mrs Augusta e.
Stetson formerly first reader, now n
member. of the board of directors and
the dominant factor i'm the affairs of
the First Christian Science church of
Manhattan, had been removed as a
practitioner and her card and license
to teach Christian Science had been re
voked by the directors Of the moth
er church" in Boston, 1t was declared
today that the entire matter Is likely
to be threshed out in the courts
The fight between Mrs. Stetson anu
leaders of the Boston church which
extends over period of years, has
become most acute and there Is ev-
cry likelihood that sensational de-
velopments will result now that the
issue has been directly raised.
The local church Is one of the
richest I'm the United States. Its place
of worship is one of the most costly
In the city located on Central Parl;
west and the congregation is very
large. The announcement that Mrs
Stetson has been removed came un-
expectedly and a hurry call was sent
out to the members of the board to
meet and consider wnat they will do
in the case. They held a lengthy
session behind clo5ed doors and at the
conclusion. Edwin p Hatfield chair
man of the board, declared that they
had nothing to say at this time.
Pressed to state whether the church
would stand by Mrs Stetson, or
whether it would obey the mandate
from Boston he declared that under
no circumstances would the directors
make public their osition at this
time.
Mrs. Stetson will make statement
later but today she refused to see
any callers. 1t Is understood, how
ever that she has already retained
counsel to examine into the allega.
tions made against her by the Bostor
church authorities and that until
they have advised her just what l.
best to do she VIII not define hei
position.
1t is declared by friends OF Mrs
Stetson that she was read out of thu
church without having been given an
opportunity to defend herself from
any charges that were made.
They allege that the reason she
was removed is because she has great
influence among the members of the
faith and that certain persons in
Boston are jealous of that influence
and fearful that their control of the
affairs OF the church will not be con-
tinued il Mrs. Stetson is permitted to
continue as a teacher.
In confirmation of this point. these
persons claim that tho board is r.
voking the license state that "it has
been proven that Mrs. Stetson taught
her students that the local branch
church is the only legitimate
Science church in the city and that
she taught them to disregard other
branches"
The board also declared that Mrs.
Stetson endeaYors to exercise a con.
troll over her students that hlnders
their moral and spiritual growth;
that she taught erroneous doctrines.
that she obtrudes her own person
ality on her students rather than
the church teachings; that she teach
es Christian Science contrary to the
doctrine; that she tries to control
students by mental means contrary g
the teachings to Christian Science
and finally that she "has so strayed
from the right Of way as not to De
fit for the work Of teacher OF Chris
tan Science

that he would have moved out of the

intended to convey the idea that a

St. Petersburg, Dec. 27.-A num-
Der of very alarming statements as to
the health of the empress of Russia
have been appearing in the foreign
press for several months Such state
ments are unknown in the Russian
press for the simple reason that any
editor who prints information as to
the doings or movements of members
of the imperial family, except such as
appear in the Court Circular, is
severely fined.
However, in the brilliant salons OF
st. Petersburg number of extraordi-

the empress are constantly to be
heard.

WORLDS RICHEST WOMAN
Fortune of Harriman's Widow Is Nov
Placed at 1920 900 900

New York, Dec. 24.-Edward H.
Hartman was really worth at the time
Of his death over $500, 900, 900, al
though recent appraisal of his es-
tate placed its value at $149, 900, 900.
The discrepancy between the actual
and the appraised value of the Harri-
man estate, it is learned on trust
worthy authority, is due to the fact
that shortly before his death Harri :
man transferred to his wife and his
Oldest son securities valued at over
$50, 900, 000
Since Harriman's death his estate
has prOfited by a rise in the market
values, and it is stated that the
wealth of Mrs. Hartman may be con-
servatively estimated at 1920, 900 900 =,
which would make her probably the
richest woman in the world.
