 The committee of delegates from the different A. o. U. W. lodges of the
 state of Connecticut met in this city
 Saturday afternoon at A. O. U. W. hall in Orange street, being called to order by Captain John J. Howard, with Frank P. Taylor as secretary. At the
 meeting resolutions were adopted.
 which may mean the complete sever ance Of relations between the grand
 lodge of this state and. the supreme body, if the latter insists on the new assessment plan as proposed, and which was adopted at the session of the delegates to the grand lodge in June last.
 At the meeting Saturday forty-nine of the seventy-seven lodges of the state were represented by 135 delegates. Past Supreme Master Workman Webb Mc-
 Nall of Kansas City was called upon to address the meeting. He spoke for over an hour in explaining the new as- sessment plan. At the conclusion of his address, the committee went into executive session, the grand lodge officers and all others not directly connected with the com mittee being invited to withdraw. The resolutions were then reported by
 subcommittee and everyone was in vited to discuss them. There seemed to be no opposition even in the discussion, a few saying that they wished for
 more time to consider them. but even these withdrew their objections when they found that 1t was a matter which each lodge must pass upon finally by itself. The matter was put to vote and
 the resolutions adopted unanimously by rising vote. These resolutions, if adopted by the different state lodges, which it seems certain will come to pass, mean that the Connecticut state lodge will pay no more money into the national fund, to go to western states. and will, if
 necessary to accomplish this end, sever
 all relations with the national body.

of the money. The balance went in
high living.

 Renteria and Hidalgo have been al luded 10 all along during the trial and at the execution as the Goddard mur- dererS. though as q. matter of fact they were not convicted of the murder of Charles Goddard and had never been tried for that crime. That was gener- ally known. but the newspapers chose to describe them as the Goddard mur- derers for the reason that the crime was committed at Goddard station and because Goddard, one of the victims. was so well known. They had really been tried and convicted for the murder of Frank Cox.

THE PRESCOTT HANGING
Same Ghastly nementoes ofIt Brought
 to Phoenix Yesterday.

Sheriff Cook. Deputy Jeff Duncan, Frank Moss. Jeff Pierce and others who went to sec the hanging at Pres cott returned yesterday morning. The other members of the Phoenix contin- gent will come back this morning. The visitors say that the affair passed so
 like cloc!= work that it was an event
 they would not have missed. The only | untoWard circumstances was the suG- den though almost painless death of
 Hidalgo and Renteria.
 The moose which chclled off the i breath of Renteria ornaments one of the chandeliers at the office of the sheriff. It is q common sisal rope three-quarter inch and not a regular
 hangman's rope. The regula tion rope
 had been ordered but it had not been received on the morning of the execu- tion.
 The visitors say that the description
 of the hanging, printed by The Repub-
 lican yesterday morning. was correct
 and as comprehensive as q telegraphic story could well be, but there were many little incidents of interest which could naturally be omitted
 It will be remembered that while the arms Of Renteria were being strapped together he was holding folded news paper in his hand and that while the moose was being adjusted he flung his ! body about to throw the paper off the scaffold and in doing so disarranged the moose.
 The paper was picked up and was found to contain what he had evident ly meant to be some kind of state ment- It was badly written, however.
