KNIGHTS OF MALTA.
Next CGnvOcntfon to BE Held in This
City.

Next CSnvOcntion to BE Held I'm This
City.
The annual convocation of the Ancient
and Illustrious Order, knights of Malta,
held in Boston last week, selected Wash
ington the place for the conclavc next
year. The convocation will commence the
third Tuesday in October, 1898, and con-
tinue for the balance of that week.
The Order of Malta is increasing rapidly
in strength and mustered about 1900 in the
parade in Boston. Washington being more
centrally located 1t Is expected at least
10000 knights will attend the conclave
here. The supreme representative from the
District at Boston was Sir A. w. Cornwell,
P. c.. and his friends are congratu.ating
him upon the work which he did in bring
ing the conclave to Washington.
There are four communicates OF the order
in this city, and another one Is to be in
stituted within a few weeks. The order
vas introduced in America in 1870, but
was reorganized under the present imperial
charter in 1882 since which time 1t has
steadily grown in numbers and influence.
and its weight is felt n almost every city
in the country.
The Supreme Grand Commandery of the
continent of America has its headquarters
in Philadelphia, where the supreme record
er directs the work of organization. and 1:
is a tribute to his zeal and those who have
been enrolled that they have awakened
such an interest that communicates are
beiEg stationed at the rate of more than
two a month within the Jurisdiction, which
comprises the United States and Canada.
It's Antiquity and the Crusader.
The Knights Hospitalers Of ST. John, af-
terward called Knights of Rhodes and now
known as Knights of Malta, were original
ly established In A. D. 10fS. or earlier in
Jerusalem. Several authors agree In the
statement that property was conveyed to
the order as early as A. d. 10o5 The an
cient records were seized by Napoleon,
stored in one of his vessels, and shortly af-
ter burned with the vessel or the coast of
Egypt There Is. therefore. no record in
existence for verifying the date OF earliest
organization.
At first the order was only charitable
and religious, and its sole object was the
maintenance and care OF q hospital In
Jerusalem, where pilgrims to the holy
sepulchre were received and cared for.
In A d. Ills Raymond Du Puy was
elected grand master and because of the
awful treatment of Christian pilgrims BY
Turks and infdelB. he successfully petit
toned the Patriarch Of Jerusalem to con-
stitute the Hospitalers q military as well
as q charitable and religious order. The
order has enjoyed an unbroken existence
up to the present time, and presents a
successtye line Of grand masters. - :. a

Charles NeitZey, the railroad brakeman
who was injured in the rear-end collision
near Maryland avenue and l3Ia street
southwest early Sunday morning, as pub
lished in Mondays Star, died at the Elmer
gercy Hospital last night about 4 10 o'clock
The accident resulted from an alleged de-
fective coupling, as stated in The Star at
the time, and the several runaway cars
crashed into the train carrying Buffalo
Bills show. Neitzey, who lived at No. IS
n street northwest, and had been in the
railroad company's employ for some time
was In the caboose attached to the run-
away cars, and he made an unsuccessful
attempt 20 put down the brakes Seeing
he couic not succeed, he stepped inside the
caboose thinking the force of the collision
would not be great enough to do much
damage. But when the crash came the
cabocse was splintered, and It was with
considerable difficulty that the injured
brakeman was rescued from the debris be-
fore he was dead. Although his condition
was serious when he was taken to the hos
pital, the physicians thought he would re-
cover. But yesterday morning there was
a change for the worse, and death ended
his sufferings about the time stated
The operation of laperotomy was per-
formed fer the internal injuries and the
examination showed that Neitzey's peIvis
mad been seriously injured. A splintered
bone, 1t appeared, had entered the bladder
and this injury had given serious trouble
Several hours before he died Nestzey con-
versed with an agent of the railroad COM
pany about the case of the man, Kibbie,
who was found severely injured lying beside
The railroad tracks some days ago Kib-
bic. who is in the Emergency Hospital still
under treatment, made statemc mt that the
brakeman of a freight train had pushed
him off car. Neitzey was the man whom
he implicated, but during the conversa-
ton yesterday, knowing full we'll that he
had but short time to 1--we, he declared in
positive terms that he had not showed
the man from the train. He first saw the
man, he said. when the latter was lying
beside the tracks, and then he did all he
could to assist him.
Coroner Carr viewed the body at the
hospital this morning and gave permission
for its removal to his late home on n street
The coroner made an investigation, and
