BIG SLASHING OF SALARIES
MILEAGE REDUCED TO ITS AC-
 TUAL COST.
Committee Report Starts a Fight That Has Almost Become Per sonal Among Some of
 the Members.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Aug. 25.2The election of the officers of the Supreme Lodge, Knights of Pythias, did not take place this morning. It Is usual to elect officers on the third day of the biennial session, but it was occupied by investigations that are going on. There were stormy times in the lodge rooms this morning. Appointments which usually went through with whirl at former meetings were either referred or voted down, and there was a strong determination on the part of those opposed to the present supreme officers to track close to Pythian laws in everything. This morning a resolu- tion was introduced that will cut the expenses of the meeting of the Su- preme Lodge in two, and will make this session the cheapest ever held with so many representatives.
 A resolution was passed requiring reports from the officers as to sup the future such purchases must be made by competitive bids.
 The sensation this afternoon was the report of the estimate of the finance committee. The committee went at the salaries with an ax and chopped everything In sight. It recommended that the per diem of the supreme repre- sentatives be reduced from s per day and cents a mile each way to 8 day and cents a mile actually trav- eled. The report as presented is as follows:
 Salary of supreme chancellor, two years. S6OO0: salary of clerical force. two years. $500; office rent. at actual cost and not to exceed, for two years $500.
 Postage, telephone, telegrams. sta tfonery, express, removal of furniture from Hastings, Mich, all at actual cost not to exceed, for two years. 5000.
 Salary of supreme keeper Of records. two years. $7200; clerical assistance of all kinds, two years, $2O00; office rent, heating, lighting, janitor, telephone, postage, packing boxes, wrapping paper and other incidentals, at actual cost. not to exceed $2000; travelling expense St. K. R. and S., at actual rate cost and not to exceed, two years, $500.
 Salary of s. M. of Ex., two years, $500; travelling expenses, at actual cost and not to exceed S4O0.
 Expense of the Supreme Tribunal, two years, $3000: official records, at actual cost and not to exceed S3000: al- lowance to daughters of founders. s140O: travelling expenses of the finance rc) -l.nittee. s1200; interest on mortgages, s135O: Supreme Chancellors jewel $150 Total, $33 500.
 This report has precipitated a fight that has almost become personal be- tween some of the members.

WADY FAMED, Aug. 24-The whole Anglo Egyptian expedition has arrived here and the advance Is now commen- cing to Fl Hajid, where final concen- tration will be made for the march on Omdurman, forty miles distant, which will occupy two days, if the knallfa decides to await attack at Omdurman, as now appears likely.
 Refugees are arriving daily from Om- durman. They all agree that the Kha- lifa means to fight. They report that he has 10000 men. The attack Is eA- pected to occur about September 4 Our camp of 20, 900 men, extending thIte miles, with the white ghnboatS ana an innumerable fleet of native boats, pre- sents a picturesque sight tonight
 General Sir Herbert kttcheners achievement so far is a brilliant opera tion Some weeks ago he announced his intention to concentrate his forces at Wady Hamed on August 22. He ar rived there to-day.
 Wady Hamed is village forty miles above Metammeh, and between fifty and sixty miles from Omdurman. It is at the foot of the long sixth cataract, the head of which Is at Shabaluka. Considering the difficulties of moving A 900 men and impedimentS over the desert and along the Nile under blaz- ing sun, the achievement is proof or the splendid organization of the expedition and augurs well for the final overthrow of the Khalifa's power.
 Major General Archibald Hunter commands the Egyptian forces, which comprise two-thirdS of the expedition, and which critics agree now form capi- tai fighting material. Major General William Forbes Dacre commands the British forces.
