The books of the committee on public comfort of the late inaugural show that 75,000 can be comfortably taken care of. Col. L. P. Wright. who was chairman of this committee, has very kindly turned those books over to the committee on hotels. It will there- tore be readily aeen that no trouble will be ex- perienced in providing suitable and comfort- able quarters for all commanderies who desire to visit Washington in October. TRE QUESTION OF FINANCES. “One of the most important committees is the committee on finance, of which Eminent Sir Knight James E. Waugh is chairman. This committee has already raised. through the Knights Templar of this 220,000, By this generous act, the Knights Templar having shown their good faith, the committee now intends to appeal to the busi- hess men of the city, asking their co-operation in supplying the necessary balance. We ought to have 350,000, and we believe we will get it. Willard’s hotel, the only one visited thus far, has subseribed $1,000. " We expect the other large hotels to contribute the same amount. ‘This was done in Chicago. We shall expect the same contribution from the trunk lines leading into the city. Of course the money part isa very important one, as the character of our en- tertainment will be controlled almost entirely by the amount of funds we raise for that pur- pose. An impression has erroneously gone ont that the finance committee may possibly eppeal to the Kuights Templar of the country for assistance. bat this would not be permitted under eny circumstance. Every dollar spent for the entertainment of our guests in October will be contributed by the Knights Templar and citizens of Washington, Even voluntary contributions outside of our jurisdiction would not ac- cepted. bts Templar and people of Washing by no me: ahious.

Of course all available bands in this vicmity have long since been engoged. Generally everything points now to a larger gathering than ever before wit- nessed; for instance, the Grand Commandery of Lbnow engaged quarters at Willard’s hotel r Wu. their number has now increased to over 1.500. ‘The Grand Commandery of Massa- chusetts and Rhode Island have never attended triennial conclave except in the person of w of the grend officers.

Mr. Mayo, through the aid of his personal friends among the grand ticers and executive c#umittee of the District lumbia, was very fortanate, however, in curing and contracting for the whole of shmann’s hotel, a new four-story brick building, all newly and neatly furnished. on Peunsylvamia avenue, opposite Willard’s hotel and only one square from the Grand Encamp- ment headquarters, right in the center of all the cea: attractions for that weekand on the ine of the grand parade. Mr. Mayo is very profuse in his praises of the executive triennial committee. They are men of the very highest rank among the citizens of the District, courteous, polite and sccommodat- ing” HEADQUARTERS IN THE ATLANTIC BUILDING. “Up to this time,” continued Mr. Parker, “for the purpose of saving expense, we have not had any special headquarters, but I am in receipt of a letter from Col. A. T. Britton, pres- ident of the Atlantic Building company, tender- ing the trieunial committee, free of charge. such rooms as they may require in the Atlantic building for the use of the committee. It need hardly be seid that this offer is fully appreci- sted and will be accepted. It will be remem- bered that the same courtesy with respect to this building was tendered the inaugural mittee. Of course this will save the triennial committee hundreds of dollars, and will enable them to occupy one of the most desirable and convenient for headquarters that could be obtained in'the city.

Pratt, cashier of the First National bank at Anoka, Minn., has gone to Canada, and an examination of his accounts shows that he is athief to the amount of nearly 2100,000. The directors will place the bankin the hands of the bank examiner, and he will appoint a receiver to settle the affairs or close up the business, It is impossible to tell how great has been Pratt's villainy, as the bank’s correspondents in both Chicago and New York allowed him to over- draw to the amount of $15,000, It is probable that he has drawn to the ‘full limit of both | banks. They have been telegraphed to refuse | payment on all checks signed by Pratt. Pratt | was also speculating in the Minueapolis ex- change and had loaded up the bank with con- siderable bad paper of a lumber conce: though part of it was indorsed bya solid citizen. The cause of his downfall is said to be in- timacy with a handsome young woman of doubt- fal antecedents, on account of which his wife took her two children and went to her brother in Boston, Still Pratt kept up his intimacy with the woman, who is supposed to have ha child by him. There was quite a contest on he part of directors at the January meeting over his election on account of the domestic | scandal. A compromise was finally effected, the understanding being that he should close up certain business matters with which he was | | familiar at a reduced salary. From that mo- it would seem, he went deliberately at work to steal all he could. The president of the bank is H. L. ‘Tickner, one of the pionevr citizens of the northwest. The capital stock | was 550,000. Most of the holders were local | business men. All the money taken on deposit | | yesterday will be returned in full, but that pre- | viously deposited will have to await settlement. | Unless matters prove worse than expected, the depositors will probably be paid in full. | = Se ae | German Editors to be Banished. j HOW THE KAISER SEEKS TO MUZZLE THE PRESS.

The commission had previously reported that they were divided on the proposals, and that there was no possibility of their reaching ) an agreement.

The exact form of the new law will not be revealed until the commission have finally reported.

Serious disasters are apprehended in that sec- tion, but all the government wires are down and nothing can be heard.

About seventy Sle anh poles were thrown down by the snow between Rockville, Montgomery and Washington. Baltimore Sun publishes the followi statement from Capt. Nickle, of the steamer Baltimore, in regard to his experience in the bay and river: “Lencountered the storm about 4 o'clock Saturday morning aswe were going in the York river.

All telegraphie com- munication was interrupted through Glouces- ter, Matthews, King and Qucen counties, I have been on the bay for the past thirty years, and this storm was the worstI have ever en- countered.” A CASTAWAY'S STORY—SOLE SURVIVOR OF A WRECK. The vessels all along the Atlantic coast were in great peril, and many sad stories of disaster will probably come in, The barge Sunrise sank near the Lewes life-saving station, Delaware, and Joseph Coyle, supposed to be the sole sur- Vivor, thus tells the story to the Philadelphia Pre m from the barge Sunrise, of New York, from Newport News for Providence, with 1,780 tons of coal, The barge sank last night at midnight near Brown's buoy. We were in tow of the tug B. W. Morse, with another barge, At noon yesterday our barge began leaking. ‘The sea and wind were so high we could not hold any communication with the other vessels, The name of the captain of our barge I never knew, except that he was called ‘George.’ He had his wife and two children with him. The leak could not be stopped, and at 11 p. m. the water had gained so much’ on us that the cap- tain found he would have to abandon his vessel. Our surfboat was put in the water and was held to the barge by a painter of one-inch rope. 1 got into the “boat first and was ready to receive the women and children when the painter Creag and I driftedaway. There were oars in the boat, but 1 could not use them in such & sea as there was, I had not drifted far when I saw the barge godown, I knew that all must have drowned, as there was nothing for them to escape in except asmall dory which could not live any time in a sea like that; nor wouldn't hold the five that were left on the barge. My boat shipped sea after nd I was kept bailing till y threw myself exhausted er of the boat, determined to let the ere she would. I was driven toward the breakwater.

My boat was a large surf-boat about 80 feet long.
