WASHINGTON. Sept. 15.-The

This was learned today on the
highest authority. On the contrary.
the Administrators attitude is as

Germany's statement that her sub

II is accepted also that. if such at
tacks were made. the submarine

Officer Sharpless finally discovered

He found that a peanut shell was

become lodged in the waste water

offending shell and the food at once

then the temperature in the room

by Officer Sharpless that the food
was preferable to the increased

LODGES WILL MEET
In THE BUILDING

Representatives of the Odd Eel
lows Hall Company and owners Of
the Odd Fellows Hall, Tenth and
King streets, and Alfred ID Warner,
Jr., of the Charles Warner Company,
have signed a lease on the auditor
ium of the hall property, which will
be used as offices by the Warner
Company. The lease is for five
years. the Warner Company to con
vert the present auditorium and gall
lery into a series of offices. Active
work was started on the remodeling
yesterday by William ID. Haddock
and Company. contractors. While
representatives OF those concerned
refused TO discuss the matter Of the
lease it was rumored today that the
lease calls for a rental of $4,000 a
year
The present offices Of the Charles
Warner Company in the DUPONT
Building will be removed 10 the Odd
Fellows Hall property as soon as the
changes are made to the first floor
of the building, which will be about
September 20.
The leasing of the auditorium OF
the structure as offices has caused a
stir in the ranks Of the various lodges
Of Odd Fellows here who meet in the
hall. Several members of the order
opposed the renovation of the first
floor Of the building. claiming that
the auditorium was one of the best
assets of the property. While the
auditorium has been rented for vari-
Gus purposes since the hall was cree
ted a few years ago. representatives
of the holding company contend that
the remodeling of the first floor into
Offices will mean a larger revenue to
the holding company.
The Odd Fellows will continue to
occupy the lodge rooms on the upper
floors of the building.
