EDDY CASE IS DROPPED.

Those Who Brgas Case Decide to Dismiss It. The famous suit in equity brought March 1 by George W. Glover, son of Mrs. Mary Baker G. Eddy, and others as “next friends” against Calvin S. Frye and others for accounting of the property of the aged head of the Christian Science church, came to an abrupt end Wednesday. Immediately after the opening of court in the continued hearing regarding Mrs. Eddy’s competency before Judge Edgar Aldrich and his comasters at Concord, N. n.," William E. Chandler, senior counsel for the “next friends,” announced that he had filed with the clerk of the court a motion for the dismissal of the suit. Mr. Chandler said that there were many reasons for this action, but that the principal one was “the unprofitableness of any immediate result of a decision in our favor upon the exact issue as now framed, compared with the burdens and disadvantages to be endured by us, both before and after such a decision."
