AT washington street the marchers
turned west to State, where they en-.

stretch extended from Randolph to
a Buren, street and was made beau
tiful by a handsome arch and massive
0orlnthian columns Of pure white

Moving south to Jackson boulevard,
the knights again turned west, and
near the federal building passed be.
fore yet another reviewing stand
which accommodated Governor Deneen
and his staff. Marching north on La
Sale street, the parade passed be-
meath the grand commandery arch of
pure white (which spanned the street
at the La Sale hotel, the headquarters
OF the grand commandery of Illinois.
This was a beautiful structure de.
signed by n of Chicago's most IA
nous sculptors. Upon it's top stood
the figures of mounted knights four
teen feet high. At the new city hall
on Washington street the parade was
dismissed, after marching forty-three
blocks.
Care For the Marchers.
Everything that could be thought
of for the comfort of the paraders and
the spectators was done by the local
committees. In nearly every block
along the line Of march were station
ed physicians who were also knights
templar, with trained nurses and
equipment for emergency cases. In
addition, emergency hospitals to be
kept open day and night during the
conclave were established at many
points in the center of the city, and
at the West Side ball park which was
selected as the place for the competi-
tive drills.
Wednesday and Thursday were the
days set apart for the drills for which
handsome trophies are awarded, and
band concerts, sight seeing and many
receptions were on the program.
Enhancing Scenes at Night.
The scene in the streets at night
was especially beautiful, for all the
arches, festoons and columns of the
decorative scheme were brilliantly IL.
Illuminated, and on State street, in adj
dition to the "Templar Way" the mer-
chants had put up decorations that
transformed the great shopping dis
trict into a veritable fairly land.
Undoubtedly the most spectacular
feature Of the night display was the
wonderful electric set piece erected
in Grant park on the lake front, re-
producing in colossal size the official
emblem or badge of the conclave. It
was $50 feet high and its 5000 power

very eminent grand prelate Of the
grand encampment. The music was
in charge of the grand organist of the
choir consisting of several male quar-
tets belonging to the order in this
state. The Grand Encampment of the
United States marched to the hall es-
'corted by sir knights of the various
communicates of Cook county, CON-
manded by Benjamin S. Wilson, chair
man Of the escort committee. In many
Of the leading churches of the city
special services were held which were
attended by visiting knights and their
families.
Monday was devoted mainly to the
receiving of the grand and subordinate
communicates and escorting them to
their hotels. 1t is estimated that fully
100000 visitors came with the knights
and that about 100000 other excur-
%sionists have focked to the city this
week in consequence of the conclave.
OF course every hotel was thronged
and thousands Of the visitors found
quarters in private residences.
On Monday evening all the local
and visiting communicates kept open
house at their respective headquar-
tiers, and many of the visitors found
their way to the various amusement
parks and the theaters.
Parade of The Knights.
The grand parade" of Tuesday was
the largest parade of Knights Templar
ever held. The preparations were
elaborate and Michigan boulevard was
most deliberately decorated. The sir
knights formed in line of march on
the boulevard south of T%hirty-frst
street, and signal to move was given
by the guns of Battery B, I. N. G., the
detachment for the purpose being
composed Of knights Templar all Of
whom are members of the battery.
The same detachment fired the salute
to the grand master.
Marching northward in Michigan
boulevard, the parade passed, near
Hubbard court, beneath an entrance
arch built in the form of an ancient
battlement with its towers and tur-
rets. This was intended to represent
the entrance to the city, and as the
column passed under it, buglers sta
toned on its heights heralded the ap-
proach of each grand division.
Next the knights came abreast OF
the first grand stand, one-half mile in
length, and this needed no decora.

Lisbon, Aug. s.-Portugal like Spain,
Is almost o the verge of an open rup-
ture with the vatican, due among other
causes, to friction over governmental
censure of the Roman Catholic arch

uguese Fracasian newspapers without

secretary of state, have been conduct
ing a bitter campaign against the gov
eminent on this account. At the same
time the vatican has been raising diff
ficulties about refilling diplomatic va
cancies caused by the death of Senior
Martin Dqx Antas, the Portuguese am.
bassador to the vatican.

Murray Denies Charges.

Muskogee, Okla, Aug. 6.-Nots only

Sherman, disapproved of the contracts
whereby IN attorneys fee Of $3,000,-
900 was to be allowed in the sale Of
$780, 900, 900 worth Of Indian lands in
Oklahoma.
This assertion formed the substance
of the testimony given by Senator
Curtis today before the committee ap-
pointed by the house of representa-
tives to investigate what are known
as the McMurray contracts.
Senator Curtis came here to testify,
following the testimony given by Sen
ator T. P. Gore. who declared he had
been informed that Sherman and Sen
ator Curtis each were interested in
the contracts, the approval of which
by congress and President Taft was
sought by J. F. McMurray.
Senator Gore charged that a New
York syndicate stood ready to pur-
chase the Ian for $685. 600, 900 and the
contracts held by McMurray called for
10 per cent attorneys fee, whereas
the Indian treaties with the govern
ment provided for the disposal of the
land without any expense to the In
dams on the floor of the senate and
in his testimony here Senator Gore
charged that he proposed sale was an
attempt to rob and plumber the IN
dams.
Muskogee, Aug. 6.-More charges Of
attempted bribery in Oklahoma Indian
land deals were made before the IN
gressional investigating committee to-
day. D. G. McCurtain, a Choctaw In
dian, governor of the Choctaw nation
and attorney for that tribe, testified
that j. F. McMurray had offered him
$4,000 to approve the land deals.
The contracts were those which were
disapproved by President Roosevelt in
1908. IT was called to the hotel by
McMurray," testified FcCurtain.S while
there I was introduced to Cecil A.
Lyon, the national republican commit
teeman from Texas. When Lyon left
McMurray, he said: I have decided to
give you $4,000 if you will not oppose
through just as they are, you will get
the money. If our profits are cut down
then your money will be cut down in
proportion"
J.. F. McMurray in an interview late
today denied that he had ever offered
$4,000 Or any other amount to Mr..
McCurtain. McMurray declared that
Cecil Lyon was financially interested
with him in the old tribal contracts.
