CONTEST OVER M'LEAN
WILL FINALLY ENDED
Courts Grant, Petition OF Only Son
That He BE Appointed One OF
Executors of Estate.
tBy Associated Press.J


tBy Associated Press1
WASHINGTON, August 3o.-The
legal contest over the will OF the
late John r. Mclean, millionaire
newspaper publisher OF Washington
and Cincinnati, was ended to-day. when
the local courts granted tho petition
of Edward B. Mclean, his only son,
that he be appointed one OF the execu-
tors Of tho estate. Tho trust COM
pany. named as executor by the tes-
tator. did not oppose the application.
The caveat filed by Edward B. Mclean
opposing probation Of his fathers will
was withdrawn at the Same time as
was an agreement proposed to the
court for settlement Of the contest
without legal proceedings.
The courts decree declares tho
validity OF tho trusts created under
tho will. and provides that the ap-
pointment of Edward B. Mclean as
a co-trustee does not affect those
trusts. This means that Mr.. Mclean
will receive practically the entire in
como from his fathers large estate.
The suit to set aside the will was
brought on the ground that the late
MT. Mclean was mentally incompe-
tent to make his will. and was sub
ject to undue influences.
