DISPUTE Between
MASONS AND GRAND
MASTER SETTLED
Court Settles Controversy Be
tween E. HI. Holmes and
Masonic Lodge.
TEMPORARY INJUNCTION
ORDER TO BE ENFORCED
Grand Masters Unwise Interfer-
ence in Lodge Affairs Ba-
sis of Trouble.

A settlement of the controversy be-
tween Jephtah Chapter, Order of
Eastern Star and E. H. Holmes, the
Grand Master of Masons, Washington
jurisdiction. was effected during the
past week through an agreement of
the contending parties and their at
torneys, that an order be issued by
King County Superior Court forever
continuing in force certain stipuia-
tions of the temporary injunction of
granted by court last June. Dispute
between the two factions has been
raging ever since the setting of the
Masonic Grand Lodge in Seattle dur
ing 1921, and threatened to disrupt
the organizations.
The trouble started OYER an ulti-
matium by e. H. Holmes as Grand
Master of Masons that Jepthah Chap
ter o. E. s., obey certain orders is
sued by him. Jepthah Chapter dis
puted the right of the Grand Master
to interfere in the affairs of their
organization. During the controver-
sy rival chapter named Responsive,
was organized. the lodge parapher-
MALTA of Jepthah Chapter mysterious
ly disappeared, and the bank In which
the money was deposited, not know
ing which faction was right, refused
to pay money to either.
Jepthah Chapter Court started ac-
tion in Superior Court with the re-
suit that a temporary injunction was
granted restraining Grand Master
Holmes and others named as defen-
dants from interference with the af-
fairs of Jepthah Chapter. Mt. Rain
Ter Chapter also filed action against
Mr.. Holmes.
The signing of the order as agreed
upon by the contending parties last
Friday by Judge j. T. Ronald, eff
fectively settles the trouble, as 1t is
stipulated as final judgment.

ment from the War Department.
The letter asks that the War de-

that the colored regiment has been
deprived of it's arms in community
that resents the presence of colored
men in a uniform; whether the regf-
ment has been deprived of its own

ers that they permit themselves to be

stationed at Fort Benning, Ca, where
they are in virtue of their being with
out arms at the mercy of every brutal
Negro-hating white man.
"The reports to this office of the
treatment accorded to these colored
soldiers are such as to justify Con-
gressional investigation into the con-
duct of Camp Benning, Ca, by it's
present commanding officer. Before
placing the matter before Congress,
may we have from the War Depart
ment a reply stating whether:
/. 1.-THE oath Infantry. U. s. A.

cut in the third round and his
right eye grew dark under a show
err of left hooks in the fourth and
fifth rounds which were Dundee's.

ever, getting up and warding off
a fierce body attack. Benjamin

Dundee kept atop the Californian's
guard and staggered him frequent
ly with rights and lefts to the
head. benjamin missed repeatedly.

next three rounds and clearly out
pointed his heavier opponent. The
thirteenth round resulted in a
sharp exchange of blows in which

Dundee to the ropes with right
TO the body. The men were en-
gagged in still another sharp eX-
change at the bell.
