In every chair as the delegates came
into the big hall yesterday, was a

how beautiful this city is.
At $3.50 p. M, the voting for the
next place was taken up. The grand
master called for vote on Rome, his

vote for Savannah was next taken up
with no better results. The vote for

THREE MEN CAPTURE
AN ENTIRE COMPANY

BERLIN, May ga deed ranking

icled of Sergeant Utecht of the
Thirty-Ninth Reserve Infantry Regi-
ment, who in the early fighting around
Verdun made an entire French com
pany prisoners. He was backed in
his undertaking only by two corpor-
ais.
Utecht, who had been promoted to
brevet-lieutenant rank. was sent out
o. the second day of the Verdun bat
tie with patrol to locate the posi-
tons of the French troops, who had
been driven several miles back from
their original positions and were
endeayoring to form a new line in
the woods north of Douamont. Wand
ering through the woods in the dark
ness, Utecht spied light and heard
voices proceeding from a bomb-proof
and determined with his two follow
ers to attempt to surprise them and
make them prisoners.
While the two corporals stood ready
With hand grenades and rifles, Utecht
s2rang down into the bomb-proof and
seized the first surprised French Of
ficer by the arms. He proved to be a
captain of infantry. Without giving
him time to recover from his surprise
Utecht demanded:
Where is your company?"'
After an instant's hesitation the
captain replied that the company lay
on the edge Of the wood and that he

Utecht then ordered the captain, I'M

his company an order to surrender

rounded" This occurred and Utecht,

Frenchmen discovered that they had

deed the Iron Cross, first class.

a standing vote and every delegate in
the house stood up, making it unan-
imous. To say that they shouted for
Americas is putting it mildly.
Americas won the day and sustain

Some realization of the immense
size of the Grand Lodge of Odd
Fellows may be gained when you have
this information that 1876 delegates
voted yesterday morning and were
counted, and yet there were hundreds

yesterday afternoon at $50 p. M, over
$4,000 was given them in checks on

Metal Market Looms
 Up Strong For the
 Week Just Opening
(Daily Metal Reporter.O

Indications point to a continuance of strength in the metal situation during the week just opening. In copper, the element of chief importance is the re- sumption of buying by domestic brass interests, who have been sounding the market during the last few days for considerable tonnages for first quarter I917 delivery. For this position, 26 O 26 # c can be done. Metal for nearby delivery is in. n.'restricted supply. such stock as is available copnmanding up to 2Sc or even more. The order for 4.00O or 5,o0O tons for Russian ac- count, which was confirmed late last week, is relatively unimportant com pared with inquiries from home con- sumers. While prevailing copper levels, in the circumstances are con- sidered excusable, leading factors recognize that the pendulum must swing back sooner or later. the present domestic demand merely postponing the inevitable readjustment.
 Lead for immediate delivery is prac- tically unobtainable. While the lead ing producer. adheres to the quotation of 6.50c, it is reliably reported that premiums are being asked for Sep tember and October shipments! Sales of the chief interest are being confined to regular customers, and deliveries to them are restricted to their normal re- qIirements. Independent interests find no difficulty in obtaining up to 6.75c for such tonnages as they can supply;
 Spelter is benefiting from the re- newal of inquiries by brass manufac- turers. The technical position of this metal is strengthened by the curtail-
 ment of production in the Joplin dis trict, due partly to dissatisfaction on the part of ore producers with the | values that have prevailed for several
 months. and partly to physical causes
 such Ss shortage of water for milling purposes.
 There is also re-awakering in the
 domestic tin market, interest in Straits
 for fourth quarter 1916 and first quar-
 ter 1917 deliveries being especially
 keen, with sellers naming 37 O 3Sc fo. l these positions.
