Nothing Can Be Done in the
Congress Now as 1t Re-
CeSSeS for the Fourth. :.
SITUATION is UNCHANGED
Carranza Forces Are MaSSing
around the Strip Occupied
by General PeTShing,


WASHINGTON, July with the
adjournment OF the House tonight,
over the Fourth OF July, 1t became
highly improbable that the crisis be-
tween fhe United States and the de-
facto government Of Mexico would
come to final issue before Wednesday
at the earliest.
Despite growing lmpatience over
General Carranzas delay In comply
ing with demands that he state his
Intentions toward American troops In
Mexico, President Wilson made no
move today toward laying the sltua-
ton before Congress, oficials be-
lleve he will wait some days at least
for n reply tn the note sent week
ago tomorrow provided there are no
further attacks upon General Perish
lng'B men in the meantime.
Before the de facto government
had complied with the first demand
made In that note By releasing the
prisoners taken at Carrizal, 1t was ex-
pected the president would act with
in time limit fixed In his own mind,
IL there was no reply or an unfavora-
Bile one. The effect Of the release or.
der apparently has been to lengthen
this limit.
No Developments.
There were no official dispatches
today, dealing with the probable ten
or OF the note 1t is known the de
facto government officials are fran
ing. Private messages had nothing
to add to the gloomy outlook they
reflected yesterday. In fact there
were no developments Of any sort
during the day In the diplomatic sit
uation. although the war department
and Congress still ground away on
measures OF preparation whatever the
future may hold.
Under the war department censor
ship, no information General Funston
or the general stan may have as to
movements OF Mexican troops beyond
the border was available. Rumors
said Carranza forces were massinG
around the strip Of territory occupied
by General Pershing's men, leaving
open only we'll guarded road back
to the border. War department Of.
ficials refused to discuss these re
ports.
Decision Not Changed.
The rumored movements Of Me1-
lean troops appear to be in Line with
the decision General Carranzs is said
by private advlces to have adopted. II
was predicted that he would reahlrm
his intention to allow no operationE
Of the American forces on Mexican
soil except toward the border.
It was the order to this effect to
General TreYino, commanding In Chi
huahua state, which gave the present
crisis Its most ominous aspect. Sec
retary Lansing has defined as a hos
tile act and has asked the de facto
government If 1t desired that It
should be so construed. On the ans
wer to that inquiry hangs whatever
action President Wilson has planned.
Few Bulletins.
A few bulletins, written In abrupt
military style, were given out during
the day by Secretary Bakers new
military aide, Major Macarthur. They

considerably.
The Past Masters association, by it's
meetings and outings is doing much
to further the interest of the A. o. U.
w in many ways. One Of the import
ant things it has done is to bring the
lodges of the order in this state into
closer relation one with the other, with
its consequent great unity and coop
Grafton, SO that the fraternal spirit
has received a great boost and the
members throughout the state seem
bound with closer ties. All eligible
to attend should do so as they are as
sured such a time that they will not
forget for many a day.
War and rumors of war make Of
this fraternaI spirit which has been
so much talked of, a concrete thing
and offers an opportunity of showing
definitely what is meant by this much
used phrase A hypothetical case may
be readily cited in explanation of what
it really meant. The father Of a fam
lily dependent upon him is called to
the front leaving the family in dire
need. Friends are sympathetic with
the family but offer no more than
their sympathy. The A O. Z. w,
however, offers real help financially
and spiritually and the family bIesses
the day that the loved one joined the

and one who took an active part in the
business and political interests Of the
state.
After Mr.. Osgood's death his family
presented the lodge with a complete
set Of lodge furniture, together with
the jewels. apron, sword, and other
insignia Of his Masonic lodge and we
have the unique situation of a NJ. u
lodge becoming the custodian of a
prominent citizens Masonic affects at
the request Of the family. This is
believed to be due to the great pride
he felt in having this lodge named
ip his honor.
Since then we have passed through
many trying ordeals as a lodge, and
have played no mean part in the up
building Ct the M. u. for we took an
active part in the institution of the
Sterling, Rose of NIoosup, Samaritan
Of Baltic, and Livingstone of Plain
field. Our membership does not in
clude many outside of the working
class but we are content with these
knowing it is on them we can relv to
carry out the great cardinal principles
Of the order.
Among our noted members we men

first grand treasurer of the Grand
Lodge and who is now serving his city

Crooks, who was Prov. G. NJ in 1906
and P. P. G. N. Joseph WooIey who

Our lodge has been a nursery for

other lodges than any other of equal

would be hard to go into any lodge

In his opening remarks, Governor
Stuart congratulated the state upon

much to the commonwealth and to the
