Under a, reference to approve a scheme for the application of charity funds, the Master has no authority to allow, still less to invite, any person to intervene in the inquiry, who is not a party to the cause. If any such person is desirous of proposing

In an information, the Attorney-General and not the relator, is the party prosecuting the cause : and, therefore, the Court will not allow counsel for the relator to be heard in any other character than as counsel for the Attorney-General.
