STORMY
MEETING
Things We're Doing In Order
OF Washington Last Night

At last nights meeting OF the
Order OF Washington. az forecastsd
by the Star yesterday. some senu-
ments we're given voclferous express
sion and the meeting closed with the
retirement from the order OF Prssi-
dent J. II. Parker.
The turbulent state Of Affairs was
occasioned by the report OF a com
mittee In which insinuationa Of fraud
were directed against the Hupreme
officers OF ths lodge.
Mr.. Parker who appointed the com
mittee. and thereby precipitated the
trouble. through what he calls IAN
effort TO place the order on a repre-
sentative basis" walked from the
meeting IN a rage, throwing his
badge Of office on the floor. and was
followed by several OF his followers.
At the meeting were assembled the
supreme officers Of the order 10 vim
dicate themselves OF the charges OF
fraud intimated by President Parker
of the Seattle branch.
The Meeting
Mr.. Parker presided and announced
at the outset that the supreme ON l.
GERS would be given 20 minutes each
10 explain their positions and other
members would be allowed ten min
uteB each. There was some obJec-
tion made 20 this course. The su-
preme officers urged that the extreme
gravity Of the charges entitled them
10 a sufficient length or time in which
to go well into the case The objec-
tion went unheedsd however, and
the meeting proceeded. a number Of
the officers stated fully their position
and introduced In evidence their GER
tihoates and numerous other docu-
fnents vestinR in them the authority
which they held.

At length Mr.. Parker rose from the
chair, presumably TO Disclose de-
plorable existing condition Of Affairs
