TAE IOWA DIFFICULTY SETTLED.
At the session of the Grand Encamp.
ment this afternoon, the Iowa case came
up. Past Grand Master James II. Hop
kins, of Iowa, Chairman of the Commit
tee on Jurisprudence, brought in q
report, which recommended the adoption
of resolution which began by reciting
a passage of the resolution of three years
ago, that caused the trouble. 1t then
pointed out that it was the duty of the
Most Eminent Grand Master to enforce
the terms act out in this resolution, and
that the Grand Commanderies Of the State
of Iowa had been disloyal in not
obeying the edict of the most eminent
Grand Master and were censurable for
this action. But the committees were of
the opinion that the Grand Commandery
and subordinate Commanderies of Iowa
had been punished sufficiently in being
suspended from Templar intercourse
with the Commanderies of other States,
and the order generally throughout the
country, and recommended that the
order interdicting all Templar intercourse
with the Grand Commandery of Iowa
and other Knights Templar of the United
States be no longer considered in for CO.
The Recommendations of the commit
tee found immediate favor with the
members of the Grand Army Encsmp.
ment. Speeches were made explanatory.
A love feast prevailed on all sides, and
amid considerable enthusiasm the resolu.
ton of the committee was adopted. The
Grand Commandery of Iowa was
cordially welcomed back into full fellow
ship.
The committee on the next place of
meeting of the Triennial Conclave re-
ported in favor of Louisville, KY. The
report will be acted upon tomorrow
afternoon.
