OF An Kinds Cut In Two

Indianapolis, Ind, Aug. 90. - The
election of officers of the supreme
lodge, knights OF Pythias, did not
take place yesterday. Tits usual to elect
officers the third day OF the biennial
session, but IL was objected to because
of the Investigations now going on.
There were stormy times in the lodge
room yesterday and there was q
strong determination upon the part
of those opposed to the present SUI
preme officers to track close to Pythian
laws in everything.
The sensation yesterday was the re.
port of the estimate Of the finance
committee. The committee went at
the salaries with an AK and chopped
everything in sight The committee
recommended that the per diem of the
supreme representatives be reduced
from So per day and five cents mile
each way to SO day and three
cents n mile each mile Travelled. A
total reduction of $3S,5OO was
made in the salaries of various
grand officers, from supreme chancellor
down. This report has precipitated a
fight that has almost become personal
between some of the members. Tho
supreme temple Rathbone Sisters dis
cussed the question Of an insurance
feature and votes sufficient to adopt
the resolution creating it have been
received.
