YESTERDAY AFTERNOONS SESSION.
At yesterday afternoons session of the fra
ternal congress at Wizards Hotel a discussion
as to the status in the congress Of the supreme
medical examiners Of the different fraternal
societies consumed considerable time. At the
last annual meeting the medical examiners
were invited to attend. but their exact relation
to the congress was undetermined. Some dele
cations were opposed to placing the examiners
on an equal footing with the regular delegates
but after pr. Wilson of Boston had expressed
the doctors side of the question in a clear and
straightforward manner, the constitution was
amended so as to admit the medical examiners
in full fellowship.
Papers were read by J. E. Shepherd and H.
]. Stevens, taking the negative on the question,
Can fraternal society safely transact an en-
dowment business and pay q stated sum at the
end of n stated number Of years, or sooner in
the event OF death?'
Speeches on the same side were made by J.
A. Henry and DIR. d. Wilson, while Mr. H. H.
Morse of New York vigorously favored the
proposition.
Mr.. Chill w. Hazard of Mononeahela. Pa.
editor of the Daily Republican. read a paper on
The Uses of the Ritual and Sacred Ceremonies
in the Benefit Orders" The question ..Is it
advisable to abolish the per capita tax and levy
all revenues for the general fund upon the
saHe oasis as assessments are levleQ TO pay
death benefitsT was discussed in paper by
Mr.. +. n. Gage of Chicago and Mr.. s. A. Viii
Of Pittsburg and by others orally.

The Revolt Growing in Yemen.

News from Yemen is very discouraging to the
Turkish cause. The rebels have made two
assaults on the capital Of the province in which
the Turkish forces are surrounded, and the
last time nearly with success. The sultan is
said to be considering whether he will grant
the demands Of the insurgents, which amount
substantially to home rule by native primes
and native judges. under the sovereignty of the
sultan and o reduction of the enormous burden
of taxation. From present indications. IL the
sultan does not ycld something he may lose
everything in Arabia, as the insurgents will not,
it il believed, stop short of driving the Turks
out of Yemen. The sultan is said TO feel moro
anxious ON this subject than on any European
question.

what Policeman Fitzgerald told Judge Miller
this morning when John DAILY, pensioner,
and Robert Pryor. colored man, were

his pension money, and Pryor claimed that no
one had right to sell the dog, because it was
his property. Fs-s .

lowed 10 talk. but not vote, on payment
of $40 each. Mr.. Shedd. the secretary. thought
the plan should be still further extended and
individual members of outside societies allowed
70 come in. as he thought 1t would tend TO
bring the bodies themselves into the congress.
Other members opposed the proposition vigor-
ously. and finally on vote the proposition OF
the committee was defeated.
THE FoREsTERs.
The committee then through the secretary,
Mr.. S. A. Will. presented majority report in
regard to the application of the Independent
Order Of Foresters. The report recommended
that the application be rejected, as the con-
stitution of the Foresters in its de-
fnition of a beneficial society did not
agree with the definition made by the constitu-
tion Of the congress. minority report on the
same subject was presented by Mr.. n. s. Boyn-
ton. proposing certain amendments to the con-
stitution. so to allow the admission OF the
order of Foresters. The matter was laid over
for the present and the president made several
announcements
PRESIDENT SAVAGE.
Hon. A R. Savage, the president Of the con-
gress, is one of the striking figures of the con-
ference. He is resident of Auburn. Me-, Of
which hourishinS town, opposite Lewiston. he is
mayor. Mr.. Savage is a lawyer by profession
and been several times n member Of the Maine
legislature. He was the supreme dictator Of
the knights of Honor in 1885, and was elected
president Of the fraternal congress at Pitts
burg in 1850.
THE ADMISSION OF MEDICAL EXAMINERS.
The question of the admission of the medical
examiners was taken up after the report on the
Foresters. Mr.. +. ]. Smith thought the ques-
ton of the utmost Importance and one not to
be decided lightly. He opposed the proposition
in q short speech.
