IMPORTANT DECISION,
Members Of Fraterna1 Orders Must
Abide Their Decisions

SAN FRANCISCO, July 13.-Superior
Judge Hebbard to-day rendered a deci-
sion in which he holds that members
of fraternal organizations are not en-
titled to appeal TO the courts from deci-
sions of their orders to which they
have voluntarily submitted unless an
affirmative showing Of fraud is made.
The decision was given in the case Of
Theodore Growney against United
Lodge, A. o. u. w.
Some years ago the lodge made pro-
vision for the creation of an exempt.
fund to the benefits of which all MEM
bers who had attained the age of TO
should be entitled. Growney was a con-
tributor to the fund until November,
1898, when he attained the age of 60
and became, as he thought, entitled TO
be exempted from all assessments.
However, in December, 1894, the lodge
repealed the bylaw and ordered the
distribution of the exempt fund. Grow
ney appealed to the Grand and Supreme
Lodges of the order, but in each case
the appeal was dismissed. He then
turned to the courts, but Judge Heb
bard decided that he was bound by the
decision of his order.

ANGLo-AMERICAN LEAGUE.
1t Adopts a Resolution Favoring
Cooperation by the Two Nations.


LONDON, July 13.-The inaugural
meeting of the Anglo-American League
was held this evening at Stafford House
under the Presidency Of the Duke of
Sutherland. Among those present were
the Archbishop of Canterbury, the
Archbishop of York, Cardinal Vaughan
and the Duke of Westminster.
The Duke of Fife sent a letter ex-
pressing his regrets at his inability to
be present
The Duke of Sutherland, in opening
the proceedings, said the league was
quite apart from ordinary politics, its
object being to express the feeling of
cordially which existed between the
people Of Great Britain and the United
States.
On motion of Lord Brassey, the fol-
lowing resolution was adopted:
Considering that the people of the
British Empire and the United States
are closely allied by blood, inherit the
same literature and laws, hold the
same principles of government, recog-
nize the same ideals of freedom and
humanity in the guidance of their ma
tional policy. and are drawn together
by strong common interests in many
parts of the world, this meeting is OF
the opinion. that every effort should be
made in the interests of civilization
and peace to secure the most cordial
and constant cooperation on the part
of the two nations"
A representative executive council
was then appointed.

MRS. sTANFORD's ALLOWANCE.
She Voluntarily Asks to Have It
Reduced Again.

SAN FRANCISCO, July Is. The
family allowance Of Jane L. Stanford
from the estate of her husband, Leland
Stanford, was reduced to-day by Judge
Hunt from 800 to 1000 month.
The reduction was made at the re-
quest of the widow who is also ex-
ecutrix of the estate under the will.
She made no explanation of her re-
quest beyond stating that the smaller
amount would be a fair and sufficient
allowance. Soon after the death of
her husband, Mrs Stanford was granted
$4,000 a month allowance, which at
her own request in 1896, was cut down
to $500 1t is understood that the
distribution of property has rendered
her financially independent of the late
Senator's estate.

st. Paul, Rio and Pennsylvania, is now
fixed for July 2:sd.
1t is expected that nearly 1000
troops will sail on these ships and may
be the last to go, in view of the peace
indications. General Merriam has or
dered the Oregon battery Of light ar
tillery, now at Portland, to take sta
ton at Vancouver Barracks.
At the headquarters Of the California
National Guard to-day the impression
prevailed that the chances of the
Eighth Regiment being ordered to Hon.
olulu were indeed very slim. For a
time after the annexation of the Ha-
waiian Islands had been accomplished
and it was announced by dispatches
from Washington that United States
troops would be detailed to garrison the
islands, it was confidently believed that
the Eighth Regiment from Camp Bar
rett would be given the choice. Then
came the announcement that the First
Regiment of New York would be sent
out for the purpose, provided it was
fully equipped.
The proyiso again raised the hopes of
the California boys, but they fell to the
ground this morning when the New
Workers arrived. At once inquiries
were anxiOusly made to ascertain if the
New York regiment was well equipped
Such has been ascertained to be the
fact. This has effectually disposed OF
all remaining chances of the Cali
fornians.
The Eighth is yet by no means
equipped as fully as would be desired
but Adjutant General Barrett and Col
onel Bergin are rapidly attending to
this matter. Inventories of the equip
ment on hand, furnished by the State,
are being made out, much of which
will be turned over to the Government
In this manner dispatch is gained and
much time saved
Brigadier General Otis says, however,
that every regiment and command of
any size or kind now at Camp Merritt
will certainly be sent to Manila before
many weeks. There is no intention to
retain any of the forces on the Pacific
Coast.

GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

Chicago, Sept. 12.-Wheat: II
is significant that about 3 weeks
ago December wheat sold at 81 1-S
and in spite of big crop reports
and fairly good receipts in the
Northwest has very light specu-
lative trade. Considering the rigid
inspection of our contract wheat,
we are undoubtedly relatively the
cheapest market in the world.
Paris wheat and -four firm, Ant
werp steady.
Corn heavy, the action of the
market would indicate that good
many people were long on corn, on
the expectation of frost, which
failed to materialize. We think
that the crop will prove to be dis
appointing later when the husking
commences and that fair prices
will rule for this cereal through the
winter.
Oats-Strong on better cash de
mand: Trading light.
Provisions - There was some
selling at the opening, but good
buying came into the market, sup
posed to be for packers. The cash
demand continues very large.
