Mrs. Eddy's Heirs Are Settled With.
Boston, Dec. S.-That Mrs. Mary
Baker Glover Eddy, head of the

from a remark made by Judge Cliff

ing which would be of interest to
any member of her family"
Three years ago. at the time of
the suit by her next friends" Mrs.
Eddy set asidea trust fund of $125,-
600 for the benefit of her children
and those of her son, George w.
Glover, of Lead. S. d., while later,
in 1909, she made complete settle
ment with her heirs. with the I'M
Outstanding, il was generally be-
lieved, that there would be no con-
test of her will At this time the
trust fund was increased to $175,-
900 and a settlement made on other
heirs approximating 1926, 900. Since
the death of Mrs. Eddy her son has
said he would not contest the will.
Smith said the coffin will not be

CONSOLIDATION BOARD
IS TO MEET SATURDAY
Commission to Organize at First
Meeting and to Appoint
Committees

Members of the newly appointed city
and county consolidation committee
will hold their first meeting Saturday
afternoon at 2:3O o'clock in the mayors
office, Mayor Alexander having sent
out a call for a meeting at that hour
late yesterday afternoon. The mem
bers of the commission are Leslie r.
Hewitt, James A. Anderson, w. b.
Mathews, S. c. Graham, S. A. Butler
L. A. Handley and D. K. Edwards.
At the Saturday meeting the commits
sion probably will organize and viii
take steps to begin its work imme-
diately. Committees will be appointed
and the legal aspects of the questions
involved will be considered. One of the
first things to be determined is the eX-
tent to which it will be advisable to
extend the city boundaries. This once
decided conferences will have to be
arranged with residents of the cities
and country districts which it is pro-
posed to include within the new lines;
and here all the diplomacy of the COM
mission will be required, as there seems
TO be at present considerable opposl-
ton to the plan proposed.

MAYOR HINTS AT VICTORY

City officials concerned with the
the council held a conference yesterday
afternoon at which a determined effort
was made to arrive at a settlement of
the differences now existing on that
project. The meeting was attended by
Mayor Alexander, members of the
aqueduct commission and advisory
board, and members of the city coun-
Gil, At it's close it was said that prac-
tically nothing had been accomplished,
though the whole matter was threshed
out thoroughly, the session lasting
about three hours.
There seemed to be a disposition on
the part of some of the men who had
attended the meeting to doubt the
truth of the claim that figures cannot
lie. Certainly a great mass of figures
had been presented to them and, Gu
riously, the figures seemed to tell one
story at one time and another mo-
ment later. 1t all depended upon who
was doing the figuring.
If the conference accomplished any
thing it probably strengthened Mayor
Alexanders opposition to the bond
syndicate's offer which precipitated the
trouble and which has gained the ad-
herence of the council finance COM
mittee.
When the mayor returned to his of
flee at the city hall late yesterday aft
ernoon he said there was no change in
the situation.
ST stand just where I did before"
said his honor, land the syndicate
stands just where it did"
'But did you gain any adherents to
your side, mayor?" was asked.
The mayors eyes twinkled.'
"I'd rather you asked them," he an
swered, "but-I think l did"
This probably means that the council
will sustain the mayors position and
that the syndicate's offer will be re-
iected
