TENER VICTORY
POPULAR WITH
THE. ELK HOSTS
Nearly All of Officers
Were Elected Without
Opposition.

PHILADELPHIA, July 17.-In the
most exciting contest ever waged
in the convention Of a fraternal or
der, John X. Tener, millionaire
banker, of Charleroi, Pa, was elected
grand exalted ruler of the Benevo-
lent and Protective Order of Ell1s.
For a year Tener viii hold the
reins over one of the most powerful
and patriotic organizations in Amer
lea. He Will be the voice of one
quarter of a million of EIks. The
power that is his today is in sharp
contrast to the kind of leadership
held by Charles Vivian, the English
concert singer, whose little gather
ings forty years ago formed the nu-
cleus of the present organization.
Tener Man of the Hour.
Exciting scenes were witnessed upon
the. floor OF the Academy Of Music,
where the convention was held, before
the election Of Tener was assured. The
declaration was made that the big men
IN the order were trying TO force
through a slate. 1t was evident, how
ever, that Tener was the man OF the
hour and .that the opposition would be
carried along with the tide.
Dallas. Texas. was selected as the
next convention city. without the slight
est opposition at the night session Of
the convention.
Out of the SOP ballots counted at mid
night, there were four votes between
Wagner and Leech, the candidates for
grand treasurer.

SIX NATIONS
FOR 10 YEARS
Secured Appropriation
for His People of Two
Million Dollars.

Having finished his work in behalf
OF his race only seven days ago, An
drew John. an Indian chief, for
fifteen years representative Of the Six
Nations at the Capital. and former
president OF the Seneca Nation, died at
o'clock this morning at the Emergency
Hospital The cause of his death was
cerebral hemorThage. The body will
probably be removed TO Iroquois, n. Y.
early tomorrow morning, where the
Fraternal Order Of Red Men will con-
duct the funeral services.
Mr.. John was stricken with cerebral
hemorrhage yesterday morning IN Ben
Beveridge's Indian boarding house. at
pa Third street northwest, where he
had lived for the last seven years.
Mrs. John Sent For.
His condition became rapidly worse
and Mrs. John was sent for, arriving
in Washington a short time before her
husbands death. Born on the Ircduois
reservation, near Versailles, n. Y, in
1S4S, John was appointed an officer OF
the tribe when in his teens. At each
election he was given a more important
position and was finally made the head
of the nation.
He was an educated Indian and for
years was one OF the leading mecnants
and traders of the tribe. As a repre-
sentative of his people here he was
thrown IN contact with Senator Quay,
and the statesman soon formed a last
ing friendship for the Indian. During
his last years at the Capitol Senator
Quay was a frequent visitor at the In
dian boarding house.
Secured Two Million Dollars.
The funeral arrangements In Wash
ington will be in charge Of Mineola
Tribe of Red Men. of which John was
a member. Mr.. John was a graduate
Of Allegheny College, and was sue
cessively chosen peacemaiSer. council
man, treasurer and president OF the
Seneca tribe. In 1892 he came to Wash
igton as the representative Of the Six
Nations to prosecute claims against the
United States Government for alleged
violations OF the famous Buffalo treaty
Of 1884. He was successful in securing
an appropriation of s.. 100000 in 1898, and
since that time he has been stationed in
this city to superintend the distribution
Of the money. the last of which was
paid out only week ago.
Mr. John was known among his tribes
men as Gus-ta-note, or Standing Lock

report some interesting and suggestive details In
dcative Of progress incident upon the creation OF
year shows Improvement IN the organization OF
the work and advance in the direction OF unity
Ing and centralzing responsibility hitherto vested
in the different departments OF the college life.
While the Office OF the director OF halls OF resi-
denoe is essentially a centralizing one, says Miss
Davis. and although its value TO the business
vice OF the college both industrial and financial,
depends directly ana proporionatelv the rscogni-
ton and support of this central authority yet it
would be mistake TO emphasize this at the ex-
PeIlse OF me individual deyeopment OF the different
