MERGER IS NOT ON FRATERNAL PROGRAM Brotherhood Lusti|y Against Amalgamation--figh for
 Offices

Los Angeles, Jan e.-So ama,gama- tion with other orders or associations will be allowed by the Fraternal Brotherhood, according to the action taken last evening by the supreme lodge now in session. It was also decided that the supreme officers, ex- cepting two, who will be appointed by their superiors, will be elected by the executive council.
 The regular session of the supreme lodge convened at 10 o'clock yesterday morning ;with lthirtl1our members, representing the full number for the first time in the history of the order. The fight was on early in the day. The words traitor and treason were hurled at, each other by the two fac tions.
 S. J. Chappelle, one who was ac- cUsed as a Judas in the lodge, feels justified and claims the action he took in regard to exposing the anal gamation scheme was for the good of the oder. On the other hand, MT. Dandy, the deposed supreme president, claims that he was instrumental in working up the lodge to it's present membership and had a right to anal gamate it with another order if he so chose.
 The probable candidates for su- creme president are Professor James IA. Forshay. who is not working for the position and who says if it IS given him that it must be unanimous. Is. J. Chapelle is leaving no stone un- turned. and his friends claim that over fifty letters have been received by the supreme lodge from various lodges asking his election.
 Mrs. Emma R. Neidig, the supreme vice president, who was made acting supreme president, says that she is rot in the race for the supreme presi' dency as has been stated, but it is said that she will be reelected to the supreme vice presidency, which DO sition she has held since the organi- zation of the order.

MAY USE ELECTRICITY
Southern Pacific Considers New Power
for Mountain Grades. >'

San Francisco, Aug. 29.-The South
ern Pacific is considering the use of
electric power to take the heavy freight
and passenger trains over the steep
grades Of the Sierra Nevada mountains.
Electric power can. be easily installed,
according to the preliminary reports,
to do the work with an increase over
the present speed Of the trains of about
100 per cent. The best speed the pow
erfu1 locomotives now hauling the
freight cars can make over the steep
grades is eight miles an hour, and some
times three locomotives have to be at
tached to attain that.
It is understood that the new cleo
trio power will take the cars over the
grade at a minimum rate of fifteen
miles an hour. It is proposed by the
Southern Pacific to do away with some
Of the hardest grades by the use of
tunnels which will be bored in the vi
cinity of Summit and Truckee.
In all prob ability the solution of the
power question will be found in plant
on the mountains. It is suggested that
such plant can be built and equipped
at moderate cost, using oil as fuel,
and can supply all power necessary.
If the, proposed improvements are
made, it is estimated that the cost Of
hauling the trains will be cut in half

Aberdeen, S. D., Aug. 29.-The Min
neapolis & st. Louis road is rushing
men into Sphinx and Faulk counties to
hasten the construction Of the extern
sion Of that road west from Condo. It
was thought by some of the engineers
that if the track was laid as far as
Cresbard by late this fall the con-
struction crews would have done we'll,
but the management Of the road is now
increasing the force and construction is
going forward by leaps and bounds. A
slight difficulty is beinx experienced in
getting enough timber for the small
trestles and bridges, but it is not be-
heved that this will seriously hamper
the work.
The officials who left here a few
days ago to locate elevator sites in the
new towns on the Missouri river ex-
tension, returned last night after visit

Washington, Aug. 2e-G. Jarvis
Bowens has resigned as American con-

He left the service shortly after the

which threaten American interests.
MIR. Bowens reported that the stu

cal control. In consequence of this re-
port an American gunboat was sent to
the island to the displeasure of France,
which had warships near Guadeloupe,
and was prepared to check election

Washington, December 19.-In the House
today REPRESENTATIVE Lacey of Iowa, took
a pronounced position in opposition to
the adjournment of Congress for the
holidays, declaring that ut Is idiotic for
the House to adjourn and then jam all
legislation through under whip and spur
during the closing days"
The expression was called out in cor-
nection with the discussion of reoli-
ton looking to an increase of the en-
rolling force of the House. Mr.. Fitzz-
gerald of New York, had just concluded n
speech in opposition to the resolution
in which he had sharply criticized the
mistakes in appropriation bills made at
the close of the last session. Mr.. Lacey
declared that owing to the policy of hold
Ing the principal work on the approprla-
ton bill until the closing days of the
session, the enrolling clerk had worked
4S hours in succession and he contended
that under such circumstances mis-
takes were to be expected.

Statement made by Mr. Lacey about Inc
idiocy of adjournment at holidays was
the most sensible thing that he had said
in the last twelve years.
On division the absence of a uuorun
was disclosed. The speaker was about to
order a roll call when Mr.. Payne Of
New York, moved that the House adjourn
