The morning call., 1895-01-14
The Secessionisfs Lose.

1t twill be remembered by our readers that In
the reports given ia THE CALL Of the legisla-
ton enacted by the recent Supreme Lodge Of
the Knights Of Pythias soma very radical
changes were made and among them the deci-
sion that hereafter no working of the ritual in
any foreign language should be permitted In
lodges in this country; that all lodges must
work in the English language alone. To this .
lodge in New York, which worked in German5
objected and when under the law the prohibit
lion Was enforced; it resulted in the determine
ton upon the part Of all the members, except
some seven, to form another association from
the members of said lodge But the question
OF the funds and belongings Of the lodge pre-
seuted itself, the great majority going out
claiming the same on the ground OF numbers,
etc. But the loyal seven contested this point
ana IN a recent letter from John Medole Of
New York City, prominent frateT, we are in
formed that the courts decided in favor Of the
loyal few under the general farernal law, which
gives TO all orders in the event of dlsbauding
the property OF the subordinate TO the control
OF the grand body therefore the loyal seven
Will obtain the assets and properties.
