Some six years ago Brother A. D.
Bletcher was made Knight Of PYthias,
and four years later his name was en-
crossed upon the roster of the lodge OF
which he is now vice chancellor. At
the annual election, held six months
after he had become member OF Web
ster, he was elected to prelatcy, which
illustrates the esteem III which ne is
held by the members of the lodge. He
is endowed with those talents that go
to make an excellent officer, and his
record during the past administration
undoubtedly assures his advancement.
SOciable. conscientious and an lnd0m-
liable worker, he is ever laboring for
the ennoblement of mankind.
Brother BIetcher, being local freight
agent for the Great Northern railway at
Como station, has been instrumental in
making good Knights of Pythias out of
great many railway employees.
Walter J. Way. p.
Brother Way Is one of the most ardent
workers in Webster lodge, and regard
less of the fact that he has only been
member of the order about one year, he
has demonstrated that ha has the ma
terial in him for good officer, land at the
last annual election was selected for the
above important position. In every
minor position in which he has been
placed he has displayed a talent for
rendering the work In an admirable
manner. He was born on the Island Of
Jersey in 1851. and was educated in
England. Permanently locating In

NO PLATE GLASS TRUST.
instead War to the Death Is
Threatened

Threatened.
PITTsBURG. Pa, Jan. with the
new year will tegin the war to the death
between the plate glass manufacturers
of this country. A cut Of 20 per cent
from existing prices will be made by
the Diamond Plate Glass company, of
Kok0mo. Ind, and the Pittsburg Plate
Glass company. The cut is caused by
the recent conference in Pittsburg Of
plate glass manufacturers. At this
meeting all attempt was made to form a
but which finally fell through.
G. 3. Nolan, of the Pittsburg Plate
Glass company, in speaking of this
meeting, said: I'VE were to increase
our stock to $40, 100000 and buy the other
plants. An agreement was finally
reached and these were the valuations:
Pittsburg Plate Glass company plant,
$4,000 the Diamond plant, $4,000
600; the Howard works, $780,
600. anu the Charleroi and
Crystal plants sl,OO0.OOO apiece.
Another meeting was held later in
Cleveland, at which the Howard Plate
Glass company refused to sell, although
the president had agreed to take $780, =
600 for the plant at the conference.
Consequently. the combination was de-
clared off. We have been notified that
the Diamond company would cut the
price of plate glass 30 per cent tomor-
row. We will make the same cut, and
the price of plate glass will be 800
cents per square foot. The present
price is about SO cents. The effect of
this cut is that all the small plants will
have to shut down. The only two that
can afford to run are the Diamond and
our own. We cannot tell where this
will end. The price of plate glass has
been coming down right along. Two
years ago 1t was worth g. 40 per square
foot. cannot predict what complica-
tons will follow this reductiou."

Past Chancellor Edward Hazard was
made a Knight of Pythias in Webster
lodge. July, 1891, and is comparatively
young member in the order, and the
fact that he was made chancellor COM
mander of his lodge at its annual cleo
ton in 1898 is evidence of the high es-
TEEN in which he is held by its mem
bers. He has filled successfully every
elective and appointiye Office at the will
Of the lodge. A man Of sterling integ-
rity, irreproachable character, and
adapted in every way to fill the honor
able position which he was called upon
to do, he met with unbounded success.
He left to his successor the largest.
wealthiest ard most perfect working
K. P. lodge in the grand jurisdiction of
Minnesota. During his administration
Ill men were admitted to the lodge, and
he personally conferred 135 ranks while
in the chair, and gained the reputation
of having elevated the standard Of the
ritualistic work in the order. His rendi-
ton OF the work has been the subject
of much favorable criticism by all who
have had the pleasure of hearing him.

Robert j. Maybell. of the Wright. Bar
rett & Stilwell company, while one of
the very busy men of our city, always
finds time to attend lodge. Brother
Maybell has proven an excellent officer.
and enjoys the confidence and respect
of every member. "Bob," as he is IA
miliarly called, was initiated in old
Milwaukee No. 2, and later became a
charter member of Excelsior Lodge No.
29, of Milwaukee, and during the ad.
mlnistration of John A. Hinsey as
chancellor commander was keeper Of
records and seal. Since his removal to
st. Paul, some years ago,and up to 1898,
he still retained his membership in Ex
celsior, but, desiring to be more in
touch with the order in which he felt
deep interest. he decided to cast his lot
with Webster, and has been very
active member ever since.

RESTRAINING ORDER ISSUED
To Prevent Election From Red
Lake Reservation.

To Prevent Election From Red
Lake Reservation.
Judge Sanborn. of the United States
circuit court bench, has issued re-
strainlng order upon the petition of
Patrick and James Meehan against D.
M. Browning, commissioner of Indian
affairs, and his subordinaJes. Robert NJ :.
Allen and John Lawler. The order en-
joins them from ejecting the Meehans
from the Red Lake Indian reservation,
or lands held by them in Polk county.
The bill of complaint, upon which the
injunction was based, was filed
part of a 640.acre section, selected
by Mon-si- Mon, chief of the Red Lake
aud PemDina tribes. He made his Sc
lection in 1865, when the tribes ceded
lands to the government. 1t was To-
Gated in what is now Polk county. When
the chief died, in 1874, he left his title
and lands to his son, Moke-ke- wal.
The lands contained valuable timber,
and the young chief in 1891 leased some
of the land to the Meehans, and gave
them power to erect saw mill and to
cut timber, for which he was to receive
a rental of $25 per acre. The lease was
to extend over period of ten years.
The Meehans expended $4,000 i'll im-
proyements, they assert, and relied Oh
the title of the chief 10 the land.
EThe Indian commissioner has de-
clared that the chief has not title to
the lands. and claims it belongs to the
Red Lake IDdian reservation and not to
Chief Mon>si-moh Jr. 1t is claimed
that the formality Of location of the land
was not gone through with formally by
the old chief, and, on the theory that
the title is defective, the commissioner
was about to eject the Meehans when
this action was begun. Judge Sanborn
has ordered a stay in proceedings until
the title to the land can be deter
mined

Parties Making Charges Miscon-
strued.
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, Jan. 1.-The.
charges made against the law firm of
Clark IL Brown of unprofessiOnal
conduct in taking fees from antagonistie
interests in the Uuion railway litigation
were heard today before United States
Circuit Judge Lurton. At the time the
petition was filed which contained
these charges the attention Of Clark and
Brown was not called to their nature,
and as soon as they learned what the
charges were they filed their denial and
had them set down for hearing. After
a trial of two days, Involving an eXami-
nation of the whole record and cOrre-
spoudence in the case, the court in an
deliberately written opinion completely
exonerated the firm of any wrong. 1t
is evident from the holding of the court
that the parties making charges have
misconstrued the record. 1t was a
COPY of these same charges that they
were filed with the department at Wash
ington as reason against the confirms
ton of Judge G. ID. Clark who was
recently appointed United States
district Judge for East and Mid
die Tennessee to succeed Judge
Key, retiring. The charges against
Judge Clark are yet to be tried
by the senate Juridiciary committee and
his friends claim that he is able to show
his entire innocence to the satisfaction
