ORG. A. II. Meet.

Washington, Oct. 1.-THE sessions
of the Union Veterans Union yester-
day We're marked by scenes of wild
disorder and confusion. The proceed
ings at times became so heated that
personal encounters seemed likely. The
trouble began when an effort was
made TO amend the constitution so as
to restore the six months service
clause as a basis for membership in
the organization. After two hours dis
cussiOn the proposition was rejected.
Later sons, grandSonS and sOnS-in-law
of members were made eligible for ad-
mission. While the voting was going
on many members of the Ohio, Illi-
nois, New York. Michigan. Iowa and
Pennsylvania delegations conferred
over proposition to withdraw and
affiliate with the Massachusetts depart
ment, which severed its connection
with the union after the Des Moines
convention, which struck from the con-
stitution the six months service clause.
Charges Against Gen. Dyrenforth-
Before the convention met in the
afternoon the executive committee
heard General DyrenfOrth, the COM
mander-in-chief, in relation to charges
which had been filed against him by
the judge advocate general of the di-
vision of the Potomac alleging the use
of arbitrary power and rejecting on
his personal character. Later the COM
mittee made n report recommending
that he be suspended as commander
in-chief. General Dyrenforth was noti-
fed in open session by General b. F.
Hutchinson, of Rochester, n. Y. depu-
ty commander-in-chief. of the action
taken, Hutchinson had also been di-
rected by the executive committee to
preside.
Then Came the Riot
Pandemonium followed. Every man
was on his feet, chairs were overturned
and an effort was made to throw Cen
eral Hutchinson off the platform. He,
however, raised a heavy cane which he
carried and thus kept the crowd back.
General Dyrenforth refused to recog-
nize the committee to present its re-
port. and finally. after General Hutch
inSon had-been called on to preside
General Dyrenforth refused to make
way for him. General Hutchinson then
left the hall, as did the delegations
above named, and the convention pro-
ceeded to elect Il cOmmander-in-chief,

she appeared before a Wichita audience
for the first time and scored an instan-

here then was due the large crowd that
greeted her on this her second appear
ance. To this large and fashionable au-
dience she amply verified her claim as
one Of Americas greatest emotional ac-
tresses. From the time she appeared on
the scene il her hunting costume, radiant
and lovely as a wild flower with the fresh
ness Of the morning dew and the glory of
the sunshine in her face until the cur
tain rang down on her complete transfer
nation to the woman her husband wished
TO make her. she held the audience in

acting. As the petted and spoiled child Of
