reports New
Members.

Los Angeles, Cal, July 1.-THE
question of wearing Elk teeth as an
emblem of the order is regarded as a
closed incident by the members of the
grand lodge. The report of the COM
mittee which Investigated the matter
was to the effect that the members of
the lodge are in no way to blame for
the rapid extinction of elks. and no
action is therefore probable by the
grand lodge, which resumed its Sc
sions today.
The election of national officers was
announced last night as follows:
James U. Sammis of LeMars, Iowa,
grand exalted ruler; Warren G. Sayre
of Wabash. Indr., grand leading
knight; j. d. Jones of Scranton, Pa,
grand lecturing knight; Fred c. Rob-
inson of Dubuque. Iowa, grand secre-
tary: Edwin II. Leach of New York,
grand treasurer; Percy A. Clay of
Denver grand trustee; Charles l..
Decker of Bermidjl, Mimi, grand tyler;
A. Nj. Taylor OF San Augustine Fla,
grand inner guard.
Sammis received 592 votes and
Hermann, his nearest competitor,
529 votes, for grand exalted ruler.
Detroit was chosen as the next meet
ing place.
The contest over the election OF
grand exalted ruler brought out much
feeling and was bitterly contested up
to the last. Many prominent Elks
were drawn into the controversy.
There was only slight contest over the
election of the other officers.
In submitting his annual report.
Grand Exalted Ruler Rush l.. Hol-
land submitted the matter OF estab-
fishing an orphanage for the children
of deceased lodge members without
recommendation to the grand lodge.
Holland criticised the establishment
of the national home at Beauford
Va, and suggested that a fund of
$216,0OO be raised by levying an an
nual assessment of FIVE cents a mem
Der for the erection of home at
some other point.
His report shows a large increase
in membership. which is now in ex-
cess of 10000 with AZ new lodges
established during the past year.

Denver. Colo, July 14.-It is stated
by Chinese here that the Chinese gov
erument, following the report of the
Chinese consul at New York on the
Elsie Siegel case, has set its official
seal of approval upon the protection
of Leon Ling by Chinese Masons, and
that Ling will never be found with
the assistance of his countrymen.
Chinese newspapers having unoffi-
cial sanction of the government print
the consul's report. made at the di-
rection of officials at Pekin. The re-
port states that Elsie Siegel came to
Ling's room and, in a moment of des-
peration, took poison, killing herself.
Ling was absent at the time, the
report says. and when he found the
dead body he called in Chung Sin,
who was occupying the next room,
and told him the full circumstances.
Sin told him that the police would
never believe his story and he might
be lynched, so Ling made desperate
efforts to hide the body and conceal
his own whereabouts.
The report of poison stated in the
consul's report, which has just become
public in America, was sent to Pekin
tnfee weeks ago Ine report is eVl-
IDENTITY regarded by the Chinese au-
thorities as a true solution of the
mystery, and the Chinese are encour-
ageG to conceal Ling.
A member Of the Chinese colony
here said today "Only God can find
Ling now. He is under the protection
of the Masons, who are aiding him
to escape the police"
The Chinese intimate that assur-
ance of assistance from the Chinese
in this country should be taken with

trict Attorney Mack is careful to ask
all witnesses in the examination of
Harry Thaw whether they ever dis
Cussed the killing of White with the
prisoner. The theory of the state is
that the victim of Parania only ex-
hibits symptoms of pronounced insan-
ity when the particular subject affect
ing him is mentioned. All the wit
resses have denied approaching this
subject. Anna C. Dayley and Maru
Murnane, matrons of the jail, said
they considered Thaw sane.
Evelyn Nesbit Thaw was a witness
in the case yesterday and attracted
as much attention as when she APP
peared as a witness in the two trials
