EXTRA
2 CITIES FIGHT FOR SHRINE MEET
l
Sl Fl HABE
A fight that threatened to Imst for
hours opened in the Imperial Coun
ei]l of the Mystic Shrine Wednesday
at the Lyric Theater when the ques
tion of the 1915 convention came up
with Seattle victor in the first round.
California, its four temples solid
for San Francisco, planned to wage
a determined fight agalnst the com
mittee's recommendation, which was
unanimously in favor of the rival
city. The men from the Golden Gate
were somewhat chagrined at the de
flection of E. 1. Alderman, L.os An
geles member of the vommittee on
time and place, who voted with the
other four members for Seattle de
spite the previous understanding that
he would stand by his own State.
Knoxville was another preliminary
victor In a committee fight for con
trol of Alhambra Temple, which now
is situated in Chattanooga, Because
most of its members live in Knox
ville, that city wants the charter.
Btill Net Determined.
A subcommittee headed by Billy
Bristol, of Portland, Oreg., presented
a report favering Knoxville's conten
tion. The matter has yet to be
thrashed out on the floor of the con
vention.
The othetr members of the com
mittee favoring Seattle are Frank A.
Chase, El Katif, Spokane; Charles
H. Boden, Kosiar, Louisville; E. H.
Merritt Mizpah, Fort Wayne, Ind.;
(. V. Dunbar, Palestine, Providence,
R 1
Presentation of the committee's re
port, however, does not mean the end
of the fignt. San Francisco and its
adherents are determined. A plan of
warfare to the last ditch has been
perfected.
Real Fight to Come.
The final battle will be precipitated
when “Mot” Flint, past potentate of
Al Malaikah Temple, Los Angeles,
will ask the assembly to substituie
San Francisco for Seattle in the re
port.
The Imperial Council promoted the
highest officers in accordance with
long established custom.
As a result of the accession, Dr.
Frederick R. Smith, imperial deputy
potentate, of Rochester, N. Y., is now
the imperial potentate of the great
order, Willlam W. Irwin joining the
ranks of the past imperials.
Through tne unexpected resigna
tion of Willlam J. Matthews, of New
York, the imperial marshal, two
piaces became vacant, and Ernest A.
Cntts, of Savannah, imperial captain
of the guard and James S. McCand
less, imperial outer guard, of Hono
lnlu, advanced two berths instead of
one.
Jack Jones Honored.
Jack T. Jones, of India Temple,
Oklahoma City, was elected captain
of the guard, the next lowest office of
the Imperial Divan. Thus Noble Jones
i« placed in line for succession fo the
lLighest office of the Shrine. |
The election came after a hot fight,
in which the other candidate was'
(‘onrad V. Byckman, Kismet Temple,
Rrooklyn. On the second and decid
ing ballot the vote was: Jones, 230;
Byckman, 193. On the first ballot the
andidates were Jones, Byckman, W“
H. Passchen, Oriental Temple, Troy:
Tnel €. Clore, Syria Temple, Cinecin
ati, and Daniel Charles O'Flaherty,
Acca Temple, Richmond.
Jones is a real estate and oil man
of Oklahoma City, and one of the
most popular Shriners of the Mid
dle West. The band of India Tem
ple, anticipating his election, was sta
tioned outside the hall, and upon the
f-‘?:nouncement burst into triumphal
strains.
Byckman, defeated for captain of
‘he guard, was nominatea for im
perial outer guard by Billy Bristol

WASHINGTON, May 13.—Huerta
must go. Prersident Wilson is de
termined that the dictator must be
eliminated from the Mexican situa
tion. He has taken that position ever
since the Mexican crisls argse, and
his opinion has been strengthened. it
became known to-Aday, as a resuit of
the information given him by (Charge
d’Affaires O'Shaughnessy at their
conference last night.
That drastic action will be taken by
Secretary of War Garrison if It
should be clearly proven that Orderly
Samuel Parks, of the Twenty-eighth
Infantry, had been ruthlessly mur
dered and tortured by Mexican sol
diers near Tejeria was Indicated to
day by Mr, Garrison. No action will
be taken, however, unti! an investige
tion now being made clearly proves
that Parks was not in the wrong in
going into the enemy’s line.
“If polite, deagnt measures fail,”’
Mr. Garrison sald, “then we will take
the next step. If he was tortured, it
wae an act of barbarism whether war
was on or not."”

“Unless American lives are jeop

cause of the presence of Constitu

ALBANY, May 13.—11 n the report of
the Right Rev, F. F. Reese, Bishop of

tion of the colored Episcopal church
from the white in the South and the
creation of a separate diocese for
them.
Bishop FReese states that the hope
of the negro lies in some kind of a
sympathetic relation with the white
people, and it would be as foolhardy
to set up for them separate States
fn the South as it would be to create
for them a diocese with itg negro
bishop.
