Speculation in Ufe Insurance has recently been agitating the people in some parts of the country, especially our neighbors in Pennsyl- vania apd Maryland, and It is now reported | that am attempt to defraud tue Washington Endowment Association was made afew w9k3 since. It appears tbat about the middle of ‘March applications were made iu due form by a man residing in the northerh part of the city for endowment certificates fo issue on the lives of bis two sisters—one married and the otuer a he and they represented were 29 and 24 years old respectively. The parties each filled out the biankforms of application, in which the name of the brother was inserted asthe beneficiary, to the amount of $4,000 ta each case. The other blanks were filled in rex- ular form, and the cases were referred to one of the examining physicians for report. THE FIRST SUSPICION OF FRAUD dawned on the ‘mind of that gentlenan when he was making the examination, for both sis- ters appeared to De much older than they had Stated. They each stood “A 1” a4 to the madt- cal exammation, and were. 80 reported to Mr. A. Gardner, the secretary, with the suggestion that their ages should be looked Into. he | subject was laid before the board of trustees. who, when they discussed the case and tt was ascertained that the would-be benefictary was @ party who had been engaged to a sui! for fire insurance, which he haf los: beesu-e there was, strong Circumstantial evidence that he knew more of the origm of the fire than had been 901 Was one Inch above the danger line. The tndi- cations are that partly cloudy weather and oo- casional rain will prevail tn New England, the Imicdle and South Atlantic states to-day, foi- lowed by clearing weather to-night and by fair Weather to-morrow, and that silghtly cooler fair weather will prevati in the Galo valley and Tennessee to-day and to-morrow. The Missts- sippi river will probably contigue to rise, and the Missouri to rise belew Omaha.

Tne preamble recttes that, in consequence of the sojourn of Messrs. F. W. Fritzsche and Louts Vierick in Washington,the @fforts for liberty of the German soclalists- labor party had become widely Known and the rejucice, with which this party bad to con- end, had to a great extent vanished; that the Condition of matterg in Germany, as shown by the prosecution of political offenders, the press gag law, suspension of the right to hold assemblages, persecution of the Jews, and the arbit measures of the police, called for ‘the warmest sympathies of this assoctatioa for the oppressed German people, and that as the association recognize a democratic admints- tration as the only sanctioned form of govern- ment, they pledge themselves to support all endeavors tending toward abolition of despotic Tule. The resolutions are as follows: “That we Indorse the socialistic party a3 the only party who, in defiance of irek, continues the war for freedom and Werty by peaceful and successful agitation; that we promise the Soclalistic party our niaterial ald. and there- fore call @ public mee'ing, to be held next Sunday, the istot May, in order to Nad ways and means to secure to our old fatherland the free constitutions which fe made our new home so prosperous and ored; that we hereby fender to the press of Wasbiagton our sincere thanks for their and correct Teport of the proceedings.” —— -+—__ A Decision of Interest to Odd Fel- lows. ‘THE DISTRICT LODGES NOT CHARTERED AND THEY CANNOT BE SUED, In the Circuit Court, Judge MacArthur, yesterday, the case of Mra. Julia A- Rupp agt. Metropolis Lodge, No. 16, I. O. O. F., was tried. Mrs. Rupp claimed that she was entitled to the widows" tax in consequence of the death of her husband, who she claimed wasa member Of the order in good at the time of Dis death. The defendants claimed that in Consequence of bis failure to pay dues he was Rot entitled. The defendant asked for a ver- dict on the ground that it had not been shown that the lodge was a chartered body. The Court sald that !f the Grand Lodge of this 5 yn Was a Chartered body, and had the | ap to issue Charters to subordinate lodges, Should hold that this was a quasi char: tered body. A copy of the charter of the Grand —— was read, and it was found that 1t had not been given any power to Issue-chartera to the subordinate lodges. It was then stated by the Counsel as @ fact. that none of the lodges poseessed charters and never had been granted any. The court said this was a remarkable circumstance, and that the bodies held a much Gifferent position from what he had supposed. ‘They were utterly without avy respouaibility; they could receive funds and not be heid ac Countable for them; they could nelther sus nor be sued. The only way that this suit cou'd be Proreriy brought was against the ollicers and Int W.DeTs, aud, as there were too many of tuem to ob: ain service upon, the best thing for the la'Lti to do was to discontinue the case in t court and take it into equity.

HOW THE CASH WAS TO HAVE BEBN OBTAINED. Naturally the officers and directors were anx- ious to know to what extent It was intended to carry out the fraud, and some were quite sure that It was not simp-y the security of a certi- ficate that was wanted, but that the real ob- ject was the cash itself. Accordingly the in- vestigations were continued with tne view of, if possible, getting such ron as would justity them in asking the grand jury to investigate it. ‘This proof they have not, however, secured in such complete fo m as is necessary, but it has been ascertained that had the partes suc- ceeded in securing the certificates that the in- tention was to find some sick womin, whom they pone ate — = ban souniiodce (as algo the fun and procu her to the “insured sisters,” the death of such person the proofs would be filed in the name of the Insvred sister and the money be obtained.
