When the democratic caucus at Richmond was called to order last night, Senator Hay offered a resolution to go into the nomina- tion of United States Senators for the short and the long terms and then to ballot for state officers. No objection was made to this except in the two or three noes that were heard when the vote was taken. Delegate Baker P. Lee in an eloquent speech presented the name of Senator Pal «sunton for the short term, ending March 4, 1895. Delegate Moon of Albemarle second- ed the nomination and Gen.

CLOSING THE SESSIONS.'NEED ANOTHER LICENSE. Meeting of the Grand Lodge of Good Pem-} The Commissioners Can Prevent Sale of plars at Falls Ohuroh. Many District Templars Present—Busi- ness Transacted Yesterday—Officers Elected—Addresses of Interest. Correspondence of The Evening Star. FALLS CHURCH, December 8, 1898. ‘The morning session of the Grand Lodge of Good Templars was opened Thursday at 9:30 o'clock, and on call of lodges for reports, the following members spoke of the work of their respective lodges, viz.: W. B. Wil- der, H. C. Duerr, James McFarland, R. J. Boatwright, W. H. Dunlap, H. D. Shepherd, Dr. H. E. Pusey, Robert Walker, E. J. Newcomb. The grand ledge acted on the report of the com- mittee on state of the order, and adopted same after a lengthy discussion. The re- port recommended the discontinuance of the general visitation of the lodges of the state by the grand chief templar; that the exten- sion of the order be under the direction of the executive committee of the grand lodge; that the state be redistricted, and greater effort be made to strengthen the district \cdges of the state. During the morning session a telegram was received announc- ing the fact that the mill and factory of one of the delegates present, Mr. R. A. ‘Thompson of Fauquier county, was destroy- ed by fire the night before. The body ex- pressed its sympathy for the member by a rising vote. Washington Visitors. The following delegation from the grand lodge of the District of Columbia was re- ceived with the honors of the order, viz.: J. W. VanVieck, G. C. T.; A. Kalstrom, P. G. C, T.; Mrs. A. H. Rowley, G. V. T.; A. N. Canfield, chairman committee on legisla- tion; John Bryson, C. T., Perseverance Lodge; W. 8. Rowley, P. G. C.; Miss Emma Wood and Mrs. L. W. Ketchum. The grand lodge adopted the report of the committee on juvenile temples, which provided for the | furtherance of the work among the chil- dren by the state superintendent. The dele- gate from Chase City stated that the circuit court had overruled the county court in the matter of granting liquor licenses, and had caused licenses to be issued. A resolution was adopted providing for the appointment of a committee to inquire into the matter, and see what action could be taken in this and all similar cases to prevent licenses from being granted. Messrs. W. C. Damron of Gordonsville, Rev. R. E. White of North Danville and W. B. Wilder of Portsmouth were appointed as the committee. At the af- ternoon session verbal reports were heard from the following delegates on call of lodges, viz.: H. M. Trimble of Trinity, Rich- mond; Col. I. N. King of Front Royal; B. T. Pillow of West End Lodge, Richmons H. Dodge of Shakespeare Lodge, Manassas, and W. C. Damron, G. H. Hayden and A. 8. Woodhouse for District Lodges Nos. 7, 13 and 22 respectively. ‘Ten minutes’ religious exercises were held, led by Kev. S. A. Ball of the M. E. Church. Mrs. M. A. Burgess of Richmond, as the superintendent of Trinity Temple, was the | recipient of a handsome present from the state superintendent, for her active efforts in behalf of the work among the children in Richmond, J. F. Birrell of Alexandria mak- ing the presentation address, The report of the finance committee was amended so as to provide that the G. C. T. should not be required to do lecture work, and should re- ceive only a nominal salary, and the same in_ regard to the G. 8. J. T. The committee on the publishing of the Good Templar News in the interest of the | order recommended a continuance of the The committee on con- stitution and -by-laws reported that no change be made in the regalia of the order in this state, but the body amended same so that lodges may wear the blue or white badge as may be preferred; also that all members suspended by their lodges for causes other than for violation of the pledge forfeited all honors in the higher branches of the order. Officers Elected. At 3p. m. the Grand Lodge went into the election of officers for the ensuing year, which resulted in the selection of Rev. R. E. White of North Danville as G. C. T., Mrs. J. M. Thorne of Falls Church as G. V. T. Mrs. A. S. Woodhouse of Staunton as G. 8. J. T., Geo. W. Hawxhurst of Falls Church as grand secretary by acclamation. Prof, Ormond Stone was elected grand counselor and H. D. Shepherd of Chatham, Pittsylva- nia, as grand treasurer. An Evening Meeting. Last night the largest audience that has ever assembled in Odd Fellows’ Hall was present at the entertainment given by Pioneer Lodge in honor of the presence of the supreme templar of the world, Dr, D. H. Mann of Brooklyn, N. Y. On the plat- form, besides the supreme templar, were Mr. J. W. Van Vleck, G. C. T. of the Dis- trict of Columbia; Mrs. S. FE. Bailey, su- preme vice templar; W. H. Hatch, G. C. T.; A. Kalstrom, P. G. C. T. of the District of Columbia. The meeting was called to order by Hon. J. M. Thorne, who, after a short address, introduced Mr. A.'Kalstrom, the presiding officer of the evening, who deliv- ered an address of an interesting character. The program was of a high order and con- sisted of the following, viz.: Solo, “Wait- ing.” Mrs. Mamie C. Gury of Washingto: select reading, Mr. A. E. Rowel Gregor Noetzel; recitation, “The Man Who Cooks,” Mrs. Dr. J. B. Gould; instrumental solo, “Le Feu Follet,”” Miss Clara L. Gula- ger; recitation, “The Widow's Light,” Miss Mary J. Munson; clarionet solo, Mr. Willis Dixon; duet, “The Gypsy Countess,” Mr. M. M. Erwin and Miss Ida Quick.’ Each part was rendered in an admirable manner nd each one was enthusiastically encored. The exercises were closed by an able ad- dress on the part of the supreme templar. Dr. D. H. Mann, which was Istened to by the vast audience with much interest and attention. 7. Mann is a pleasant and forci- ble speaker and his address will not soon be forgotten here. The session of the Grand Lodge will close tonight. A number of the delegates left this morning, more will leave tonizht, and all will probably take their de- parture Saturday morning. The session has been marked with good feeling and har- mony, and the discussions, while animated j at times, have been conducted with brother- love and spirit. The body was photo- noon. ——— Transfers of Real Estate. Deeds in fee have been filed as follows: J. P. Clark to Catharine V.

Stone, sub 5%, | 4. D. Gibbs | Liquor at Ivy City. Two Mile Limits to Be Decided — Op- position to Winter Racing— Surveys to Be Made. Although, under the opinion sent today to the District Commissioners by Mr. 8. T. ‘Thomas, the attorney for the District, the Commissioners cannot refuse the manage- ment of the proposed Ivy City wjnter race meeting a license to conduct the meeting, it is stated by those familiar with the law and regulations governing the matter, that there is a license which the Commissiéners can refuse the projectors of the meeting. |This license is one which will be very ma- terial to the pecuniary success of the meet- ing, and which, if refused by the Commis- sioners, cannot be reviewed, it is stated, by any court of law or equity, for the pur- | Pose of compelling the Commissioners to | grant the license. This license is none oth- |er than a license authorizing the sale of liquor on the grounds of the course. The opportunity to imbibe liquors, it is |hardiy necessary to state, is one of the |great attractions of a winter race track, even in this climate, which the projectors of the Ivy City meeting contend is so mild and balmy, so different from that of New Jersey, the birthplace of winter racing of the character expected during the pro- posed Ivy City meeting. The revenue de- rived by the management of such meetings is, as may well be imagined from the char- | acter of the attendance at them, very con- siderable, and a refusal to grant the man- agers a liquor license would, of course, cause them serious loss. It is confidently | asserted that under the liquor law of March 3, 1893, the granting of a license for the sale is a matter wholly within the discre- tion of the District Commissioners, and that refusal to grant such a license is @ final disposition of the matter, beyond ap- | Peal. But it is further contended that, even should the Commissioners desire to grant | the Ivy City management a liquor license, |the act of March 3, 189%, would prevent them from so doing, for the reason that the Ivy City track is within one mile of the iimits of the Soldiers’ Home, and, there- fore, no license could be granted. It is not by any means certain, however, that the track is within the one-mile limit, but there seems to be absolutely no doubt of the right of the Commi:sioners to refuse the license on other grounds, fully apparent to all con- versant with the character of winter race meetings, and few doubt that it will be re- ‘The le Limit. There is, however, another mile limit which is certain to give the Ivy City man- agement no little trouble, and which may absolutely prevent the meeting being held. Under the recent law legalizing gambling on horse races within the District there is @ provision which makes it unlawful to con- duct such gambling within one mile of the city limits. Speaking to a Star reporter to- |day of the matter, District Attorney Bir- |ney stated that he was of the very decided opinion that the law meant one mile in an air line from the ctly limits, and not, as con- tended by the Ivy City people, a mile by the | traveled roads. He intended to have a sur- vey made at once, in order to definitely de- termine the matter, and if, as he had every reason to belive, the greater part of the course was actually within one mile of the city limits, he would prosecute to the ut- | Most extent of the aw not only the man- agers of the proposed meeting, but also everyone else who in any way attempted to carry on or promote gambling within the limits. | | The District attorney said that like many others he admired and enjoyed seasonable and fairly conducted racing, but was utterly opposed to what was known as winter rac- -ing, whether conducted here Gr elsewhere, and, with the exception of those few per- sons here who, for obvious reasons, favored the degrading business, he was confident that his efforts to prevent the Ivy City meeting would meet the full approval of the people of the whole District. He had not interfered in the matter of the so-called race meeting held at Ivy City last winter, but if it should appear from the survey that betting was at that time conducted within one mile of the city the persons concerned in it violated the law. If such persons come here, the District attorney, while to say just what he would do in the mat- ter, left it to be inferred that they would be prosecuted. ee — OPEN METHODS. BELIEVE The Civil Service Commission Has No Secrets to Hide. There is a good deal of sunlight in the methods of the civil service commission. A reporter of The Star applied this morning for some facts concerning appointments and dismissals. There was at first some ques- tion as to whether the facts desired would be given out, but the commission said, “Of course.” Whenever it had been possible just such “Information as the reporter wanted was printed in the annual reports of the commission. Last year the space did not admit of this, and the commission fears that this year, also, the matter in question will be crowded out of the report. One of the commissioners told the reporter that he wat glad to have such a paper as The Star print It is the desire of the commission to give the widest publicity to its actions and to the results of the workings of the civil service law as they appear. Matters that or between the commission and | ments, of course, cannot be made when final action has been taken the ‘mission follows out the plan of giving out | the fact. Nothing that has been done the civil service law has been kept secret, and any responsible person who | gitimate reason for inquiring in | lowing out the record as office of the commission as to | appointment or remeval or a vestigation made by the comm! complaint made to it has the right to ——————_-+ ©+______ Smokeless Powder.

He asked that for powder obtaining 1,960 feet he be paid |55 cents per pound, and that for every ten feet of excess velocity he be paid 1 cent per pound additional. Thus, if his powder at- tained 2,120 foot seconds, the price should |oe 71 cents. It is expected that the matter j will be settled in a few days. —_—_-e-——___. Eastern Dancers Fined. The three girls who perpetrated the danse du ventre in New York were on Wednesday fined $50 each in the court of special ses- sions. Their lawyer appealed, but the sen- tence was regarded as an extremely light joae. ‘The scene in the court room where the officers told of the immorality of the dance | was an interesting one. The three giris | were in their dancing costumes. Lawyer Hummel had great fun objecting to the de- scription of the dance as indecent. Capt. Berghold was the first to thus describe it. Then a ward detective imitated it just to show how bad it really was. Inspector W5ll- jams said that the dance was so indecent | that women there fled from the room as | they would flee from a fire. The girls all | testified that the dance was the national dance of Egypt, and that in the east it was | considered pure. A reporter had the hardi- hood to testify that the dance represented a woman in ecstasy paying her devotions to her deity. The manager of the show said, after the decision was announced, that he was weary of New rk morality, an@ would take his dancers elsewhere. paastowudtbaeae 9 Daty of the Constellation, ‘The Secretary of the Navy has issued or- ders for the complete repair of the U.S.3.
