SOVEREIGN LODGE OF
 ., ODD FELLOWS MEETS
ANNUAL ooMMUNIoarIoNoPENS ,.~ IN PHILADELPHIA.

Large Attendance of Delegates and
 VisItOrs-Central Part of City Deco.
 rated-GrOwth of the order-f.usi
 Years WOrk--ThiFty-eight Institu.
 tions for Care of Orphans and Aged
 Members-auestion of Admittinp
 Liquor Dealers.
 Philadelphia, Sept. 1s.-Under weath- CT conditions that were somewhat dis appointing the annual communication |of the sovereign grand lodge of the Independent Order Of Odd Fellows was formally opened here to-day. There is an unusually large attendance of del- egates and visitors, and the adverse weather conditions did not in the least dampen their ardor. The central part of the city is decorated in honor of the order and city hall is handsomely il- Illuminated with incandescent electric lights.
 CUuClaVe took place in the forenoon, when the exercises were held in Lu Lu temple, at which Mayor Weaver welcomed the visitors to the city. Later the sover- 'eign lodge held session at which the reports of officers were read.
 The statistical information for the Eyear in the report of Grand Secretary John B. Goodwin, included the fol- lowing:
 Initiated, 124,21O candidates; 54,235 members suspended, and 13,035 died Since 1880, the order has initiated 2,927, ,- 26S candidates, 292,541 members having died.
 The report upon the various homes for the care of its orphans and aged brethren shows 38 institutions seven of them in Pennsylvania.
 A resolution introduced by Claude Buckley of Kentucky. provided for a change in the operation of the grand council of Patriarchs Militant, by which that body in future will be per- mitted to legislate directly in its own interests, subject to the approval of the sovereign grand lodge. If the reso- lution which will come later in the week, is passed, it will make the grand secretary, John B. Goodwin now adju- tant general of the Patriarchs Militant, simply ex-officla holder of that position.
 The questions of forbidding the ad- mission of retail dealers in liquor to membership and of aff1liation with the Manchester Unity of England and Can ada, will probably not receive the con- sideration of the representatives until Thursday.

TURN 0F THE TIDE OF
 GOLD TOWARD NEW YORK
EYCITES ATTENTION OF PARIS BANKERS AND OTHER
 TINANCIERS

They Declare it Restores the Natural
 Movement Which Has Been AbnOr-
 maIIy Reversed the Last Two Years,
 Partly Owing to the War fin the Ori-
 ent-COnsider it Practically Certain
 Bank Of France Will Not Advance
 Rate of Discount.
 Paris, Sept. 1S.The turn of the tide of gold towards New York is exciting the attention of bankers and other fnan- ciers, who say this restores the natural movement which has been abnominally reversed for the last two years, partly owing to the war in the Far East.
 Officials of the bank of France when seen by the Associated Press to-day stated that the shipments to the United States were the resumption of the usu- al conditions at this time of the year. The bank itself had not made ship ments, but the officials referred to the shipments made by Lazard, Freres & Co.,, as indicating the general tendency. However, the bank did not regard the movement as likely to make serious in roads into the French stock of gold, owing to the unusual large gold balance in the bank of France.
 Similar views were expressed by two leading financial economists, Raphael Georges Levy, president of the South African Mines bank and Stanislaus Si- mon, head of the Indo-Chinese bank. They considered it to ibe practically certain that the Bank of France will not advance the rate of discount be- cause of the American demand for gold. The bank has been gaining gold rapid ly of late, and now had about $600, ,000,- poo. Since the conclusion of peace, they said, without any provision for an in dennity, the pressure for money had relaxed. In Paris preparations had been made prior to the conclusion of peace to aid Russia in floating a large loan for the payment of an indemnity. The latter was generally expected in banking circles and led to the accumu- lation of much gold. This would not now be required under, existing condi- tions. It was thought that Russia would borrow considerable money, but there would be no immediate demand | LOA % ArAA soO Cl1uC1 tIlCSS GlL cumstances, it was pointed out, the sur plus stock of gold in the Bank of France could be considerably reduced without causing anxiety here. s. 9
 Michael Lazard of Lazard, Freres & Co, said to the Associated Press that the firm had just shipped to New York S1,75O,0OO in gold. The previous ship ment was $1,0OO,OoO. The cause of this was the gradual reduction of the rate of exchange to four dollars and S5.45 cents, which gave a slight profit on the shipping of gold to New York, ow- ing to the balance resulting from the exports of grain, cotton and other crops. These natural conditions had been reversed for the last two years. The gold moving from New York to Europe was owing to special causes, in- cluding the French sale of the Panama canal, and the war, but that these spe- cial conditions no longer existed. M. Lazard said that he believed that the tide had turned toward New York, and would remain in that condition.

NICHOLAS CALLS PEACE
 CONFERENCE AT HAGUE
ANNOUNCEMENT IN ST. PETERS BURG CAUSES GREATEST
 SURPRISE.

Belief That Complete Understanding
 Has Been Reached With President Roosevelt and Tint He Has Relin-
 uuished His Part to the Czar-Presi-
 dent Credited With Conviction That
 Initiator of First Conference Should
 COnvOIxe the Second.
 St. Petersburg, Sept. 1S.-Emperor Nicholas to-day again appears before the world as a promoter of universal peace. No sooner is the Russo-Japan- csc war over, and even before the peace treaty has been ratified, than his maj esty issues invitations to a second peace conference at The Hague.
 That the emperor has done so was learned to-day from a source which leaves no shadow of doubt as to its au- thenticity.
 It is officially announced that the Russian government proposes to ad- dress the foreign powers with view to the holding of a second peace cor- ference at The Hague, but 1t is known that negotiations preceding this an- nouncernent that the government pro posed" to address the powers were en- tered into especially with the United States and were conducted with the greatest secrecy, there being not the slightest inkling that Russia contem- plated anything of the kind.
 The announcement created the great est surprise here, and that Russia should plan second conference despite the steps already taken by President Roosevelt was also heard with anaze-
 nent. It is clear that the step could not be taken by Russia without first reaching a complete understanding with President Roosevelt. The fact that President Roosevelt is reported as being entirely in sympathy with the proposal, and that he is said to believe that to the initiator of the first Hague conference should belong the honor of convoking the second, and readily and even gladly acceded to the Russian pro- posal, is clear proof that the confer S&ASS llSS e4IGdN3 pGSAL SdlASd Sbill tttal President Roosevelt relinquished his part in 1t to the emperor. f.sa
 There is strong reason to believe that the news even of the intention of the Russian government would not be giv- on out unless invitations had already been sent to the powers, and, possibly that their answers had been received.
 In this connection an interesting question arises as to how the invitation was communicated to Japan in view of the lack of diplomatic relations, but the invitation may be delayed until such relations have been resumed, or it may have been forwarded through the Unit ed States.
 It was impossible to learn tonight the proposed date of the second con ference, or to gain even an approximate idea regarding 1t; but 1t probably will not be greatly delayed. Russia, as the power convoking the conference, will probably submit an official programme, the other powers submitting sugges- tions

PACKERS sHoW TEETH.
Their Attorneys Attack Position of the
 Government.

Chicago, Sept. IS. By pleas in abatement, attorneys representing the seven meat packers and other persons indicted by a federal grand jury on charges of conspiring in a. trust to ma nopolize the meat business to-day at- tackled the position of the government, The attack was made against the irt1- panelling of the jury; alleged improper service of a summons of John Murray, one of the jurors; unlawful secrecy at the time the jury was drawn from the box; unlawful presence of a stem ographer in the jury room during the hearing, and the subsequent writing of the shorthand notes. It is also alleged that the indictment was returned in the eastern division of Illinois, although the jury which found the indictment was sitting in the northern division of the northern district.

CHANGES ON NORTHAMPTON
OUTLINE EOFPLANSF FOR VARIOUS
 IMPROVEMENTS.

Survey of "Cut-Ofr' to Connect With
 Hartford Division - Diversion of
 Freight Trafic-Pres. ~Mellen Said to
 Contemplate EIectrifying That sec-
 tion of the Canal Road Between New
 Haven and Meriden Branch.
 Southington, Sept. 1S.-A new survey for "cut-off," by which the Hartford division can be connected with the Northampton division in this vicinity, having been completed some months ago, the New York, New Haven and Hartford road, it is expected, will soon begin the construction of a line from Yalesville to Plantsyille. The new line is on easy grades and is said to offer great possibilities in the way of solving many of the transportation problems which have been before President Mel len for many months. 1t is understood further that when the new connection is made most of the freight traffic on the Northampton division will be sent up over the Hartford division to Yales- vile and then diverted to its own divis- ion. The reason for this new move ment, it is said, is the desire of Presi- dent Mellen to transform that portion of the Northampton division between New Haven and the Meriden branch, where it crosses the former tracks to connect Meriden with Waterbury, into an electric line with electric engines. The Meriden branch from the erossover to Waterbury also will be electrified, and, it is understood, Waterbury will be given traffic connections with New Haven such as have never before been thought of.
 The survey from Yalesville to Plants vile was made during February and the estimates for building the connec- ton were ready early in March. No announcement was made of the prob able plans of the New Haven road in this section at the time, owing, it is said, to the numerous railroad matters before the general assembly then in session. No sooner had the general assembly adjourned when the so-called "cut" problem in New Haven had to be 'threshed out, and now, as that difficulty is thought to be out of the way, atten- ton is directed to the possible trans formation of the Northampton division. In order to meet the requirements of manufacturers on the Northampton di vision it is proposed to have freight cars hauled by electric power. The use of electric engines, 1t Is expected, will make possible a schedule of about thir- ty minutes from one point to the other for expresses. The use of the old Canal road further makes 1t possible for the New York, New Haven and Hartford road to come into direct competition with the Connecticut Railway and Lighting company in handling passen- ger traffic between Waterbury and New Haven.

 to Each of tie Countries.
 Berlin, Sept. 1S.--A farewell dinner. under the auspices of the American Association of Commerce and Trade in Berlin, was given at the Hotel Kaiser- hof tonight to Frank H. Mason, the retiring American consult general here. who IS to succeed John K. Gowdy as consul-general at Paris. All the prom. inent members Of the American colony and numerous representatives of the German commercial interests were present There were also in attendance many American consuls in Germany. on behalf of whom Frank S. Hannah. consul at Magdeburg, presented Nh Mason with a silver loving cup. A handsome testimonial of regard was also presented to Mir. Mason, on behalf of many of his Berlin friends, by E. Hessenberg.
 Charlemagne Tower, the American ambassador, presided. He proposed the health of President Roosevelt and then that of Emperor William ana the members of the imperial family. s Director Von Koerner, head of the department of foreign commerce in the foreign office, who was delegated to represent the imperial government, made the first address. He said that the relations between Germany and the United States were manifold and rested on a firm basis. No two countries ir the world had made snoh progress in : the past few decades as Germany and the United States The director closed by wishing great prosperity to the United States.
 Privy Councillor Goldberger, who is one of the close advisers of the German government in commercial matters and the author of 8 book on the United States entitled The Land of Unlimited Pcssibilities,n insisted that the United States and Germany belonged together economically, each suppiernenting the other. He dismissed the idea of any militant customs policy, which. he said, could only please the comp rcial rivals of both countries. He admitted that the majority of the American people desired at the present time to maintain the high protective tariff and were op- posed to commercial treaties with fiTl~ conditional ost-favored- donation treat ment, for long periods. Germany, on the other hand, as a consequence Of it's present commercial policy, must ter ininate it's existing agreement with the United States. Otherwise it would be quitting the paths of It's commercial policy as already constitutionally de- termined on, and would be acting con trary to the spirit, if not the text, Of the treaties already concluded with seven European countries. These, the speaker said, were economic facts which must be understood and which could be dealt with without acrimony,
 Herr Goldberger pleaded for recip- rocity treaty in the sense of President Me Kinley's last political utterance, but

Equitable Will Hereafter Refuse to
 Give to Campaign Fund.

New York, Sept. 1S.-Paul Morton, president of the Equitable Life Assur- ance society, said to-day that hereafter the Equitable society will refuse to contribute to political campaign funds.
 MT. Morton was asked if the contri- buttons of the New York Life Insur- ance company to the Mckinley and Roosevelt campaign funds have been equalled by that of the Equitable.
 "As to that" he answered, T cannot say. am only concerned with the fu- ture of the Equitable; not with the past"
 Will it be the policy of the Equitable in the future" he was asked, ito defray part of the campaign expenses of pres idential candidates or other seeks of public office?"
 Not any more," replied Mir. Morton.
