The Committee on Credentials and Certificates 01 Grand Lodge Degree reported a very large number in ‘waiting as representatives and to receive said degree. At halt-past one the Grand Lodge took a recess until ‘three P. M. AFTERNOON SESSION—THREE O'CLOCK. The attendance of delegates and P. G.’s to obtain the Grand Lodge degree was unusually large, amounting to Bearly 400, and in consequence of the lack of spacious ‘ante-room accommodation the applicants for that de- | Bree were not seated in the Grand Lodge room until | half-past four P. M. Pending the absence of the report of the Committee ‘on Elections the next rule was proceeded with, REPORT OF GRAND MASTER. The annual report of Grand Master J. W. Stebbins is an elaborate document of thirty-six octavo printed pages, and, together with the reports of his district deputies, makes a printed book of eighty-seven pages. REPORT OF GRAND SECRETARY. The report of Grand Secretary Charles V. Clarke is a brief and concise document from which we learn that the increase has been far above and beyond what might have been expected, and, compared with the previous year, is represented as follows:— 18734. 1874-5. Increase. Initiations. ........ 4,321 6,811 1,490 Deposits of cards and reinstatem’ts. 956 1,768 $12 Net increase 2,161 2,768 1s Contributing bers... 35,665 38,4: 2,764 Lodges. . 402 43 21 Relief of brothers... $63,520 83 $93,767 50 $20,246 57 Relief of wicows, 12,157 4 $58 16 2,700 22 530 41 830 97 10,300 56 93,780 68 136,757 63 42,976 95 Total revenay «+ 241,710 96 342,989 48 101,278 52 ‘The increase in lodges in the past year has been only twenty-one, while in the year previous it was forty- two. This difference is mainly attributable to the stringent law adopted last session, which almost ‘amounts to a permanent prohibition in the city of New York. In 1874-5 there have been two lodges only in- Btituted in this city against twenty-four im the year 73-4. ‘The information gleaned from the reports and corre- spondence from every section of the State is exceedingly gratifying and encouraging, and affords convincing and concusive evidence that our Order is honored and re- spected everywhere, and has taken a deep hold on the NEW YORK HERALD, WED yee was ona copy for each lodge working in English. in order to sypply the demand 1,000 copies were printed, of which pearly 500 were sent to lodges, deputies and grand offteers, and ample copies are here to distribute, one to euch representative, GRAND 'S REPORT, Grand Treasurer E. 8, hs reports receipts for Grand Lodge pu $9,154 40, and payments of $5,156 41, leaving balance of $997 99. OCOMMITTES ON DISTRIBUTION OF GRAND MASTER'S RE- PoRT. D. Wood, T. P. St. John, A. W. Bingham, J. Van Rensselaer and J. Cowles. The reports of the Com- mittee on Finance, Correspondence, &c., were submitted and ordered to be printed, ‘ The Grand Lodge then adjourned till nine A. M. te- ay. MUNICIPAL NOTES. Mayor Wickham was again absent yesterday, and Alderman Lewis officiated in the Executive chair, His Honor will return to-day. The delay in the disposition of the cases of Fire Com- missioners Perley and Hatch has caused the circulation of rumors around the City Hall to the effect that Gov- ernor Tilden will not interfere, at least for the present, A prominent republican Alderman, generally well in- formed on political mancuvres, yesterday gave em- phatic expression to this view of the pending contro- versy. A large number of politicians, office-holders and City Hall statesmen have taken their flight or the Demo- cratic State Committee meeting at Saratoga. The “Third House’? was in consequence almost entirely deserted yesterday. Corporation Counsel Whitney has assumed active control of his official duties, and was yesterday busily employed in examining routine matters. In an inter- view with the Hgratp representative he remarked that some days must elapse before any step of public impor- tance will be taken in the conduct of his department. He promises that the “Ring” suits will receive prompt attention. The appointments of Corporation Attorney, Public Adniinistrator and Attorney tor Collection of ‘Taxes have not yet been made, Aldermen Purroy, Reilly and Robinson propose to commence their examination next Thursday into the accounts of the Commissioner of Jurors for the past twelve years, Colonel Dunlap, the City Hall incum- bent of the office, still remains in quiet possession of the books and records. Mr. Douglas Taylor continues to trausact business at his headquarters, corner of Fulton and Nassau streets. The real contest as to the legality of the position must now take place in the courts. It would be well to have the matter decided promptly in order to save a vast amount of trouble. Sinecurists attached to the Board of Aldermen. There are about fifteen clerks, messengers and janitors, Mr. ¥. J, Twomey, clerk of the Board, proposes now to dis- charge some of these gentlemen, particularly as only three or four can be found at duty at atime, Twelve of the Aldermen have signed a paper empowering Mr. pa t discharge any of those ollicials he may om Oe MEETING OF THE POLICE BOARD. Ata meeting of the Board of Police yesterday a eom- munication was received from the Board of Aldermen, fixing the rate of wages for laborers at $2 a day of eight hours, and was referred to counsel, The application of the proprietors of the Grand Union Hotel at Saratoga for the detachment of Detective George W. Elder was refused. The following patrolmen were mado roundsmen:— Spence, of the Twenty-sixth precinct, and McArthur, of the Twenty-third precinct; Roundsman Hagerty, of the Twentieth precinct, was transferred to the Thirty-first, Roundsman Malono, of the Twenty seventh precinct, to the Seventeenth, and Roundsman Cuthbert, of the Eighth precinct, to the Second. On a motion made by Commissioner Disbecker, it was resolved that citizens’ complaints against officers be investiguted by the district inspectors before charges are preferred, THAT EVERLASTING TRIAL. THE CASE OF CAPTAIN WILLIAMS AGAIN CALLED AND ONCE MORE ADJOURNED. The case of Captain Williams was once more called before the Police Commissioners yesterday, and was once more adjourned—this time because the Board was business. The testimony of Justice Flammer was taken the Eighth precinct:— October 14, 1874, Nettie Stuart, of No, 72 Carmine brought to the station house by Captain Williams, prisoner was charged by Snyder with enticing him into the house No. 283, Wooster street, where he was robbed of $107 by Thomas Higgins. Captain Williams subse- quently arrested Higgins and found upon him $49 25, which was identified by Snyder, Both prisoners were taken before Justice Flaminer and discharged. Justice Flammer also testitied that the prisoners were brought before him and discharged, the complainant refusing to make acharge; it appears that the latter it would degrade him and. probably part him from his family if he did. BOARD OF HEALTH. At the regular meeting of the Board of Health, yes- terday, the reports of the Registrar of Vital Statistics and the Sanitary Superintendent were submitted, and gave the following comparative statement of the number of cases of the various diseases for the weeks ending August 7 and August 14:— eg of communities in whose midst it has been estab- hed.

THE EXCAVATIONS AND MASON WORK—OPERA- TIONS TO BE CARRIED ON NIGHT AND DAY. The anchorage on the New York side for the Brooklyn Bridge is now well under way. The ground selected for the structure runs 400 feet, from Cherry to Water ‘Street, and 160 feet on Cherry street, The buildings on ‘Uhis large tract of ground have all been removed and the entire appearance of the locality changed, Only one building out of five large warehouses seven stories high and nine dwelling houses has been allowed to ro- main standing, and that is used for the purposes of offices, carpenters’ shop and rigging lof The ground upon which the operations are going on is inclosed by high fence; tall derricks, worked by steam, have been erected, and constant communication is kept up with the tower and the foot ot Roosevelt street by means of @ substantial railroad track especially laid down for the conveyance of large blocks of stones used in the build- ing of the anchorage. The property came into the possession of the Bridge Company on the Ist of last May, and immediately after twelve of the buildings were sold at public auction, They were taken down and removed by the purchasers, ‘Two were reserved by the company, the material of which—timber, brick and stone—together with the foundations of all the structures, which werd retained, are to be used in the building of the anchorage. Ex- cavations were then commenced and carried to a depth of twenty-one feet below the sidewalks, On the Water Street side old dock timbers and curb work were found atadepth of seven feet below high water mark, the work of former years when the river front was at that point, Large quantities of pure, cool, spring water sprang up as the digging proceeded from the sand below in such volumes that pumps were raising 600 gallons a minute, This water was carried off to the sewers. When a good, solid foundation was reached four cour: yellow pine lumber, twelve inches square, were laid securely bolted together, Upon this foundation the masonry is now being placed. DIMENSIONS OF THE STRUCTURE. The anchorage will be seventy feet above the level of the street and about 120 feet square. When the ma- | sonry is carried three feet above the timber work, whi | is about ten fect below the street, four cast iron’ plates, | each weighing twenty-three tons, will be put in position and to these will be attached anchor links, around, | which, as they are carried up, the masonry will be } closely built, until they finally connect at the top with the four large cables which are to sustain the bridge. | Early next week, the large derrick for setting stone will be ready for use. The work will then be vigorously prosecuted both by night and day. The number of men now employed is eighty. There will be two archways in the anchorage twenty feet high. by folrteen wide, open- ing from Cherry to Water street, “These are for the pur- pose of lessening the amount of masonry, The entire quantity of material to be used will reach 60,000 tons. A NEW STREET. ‘The commencement of the road to Brooklyn will com- mence on Chatham street, near the City Hall. A series of elevated bridges will connect the latter point with the | anchorage, and so on to the tower, The houses in the intervening space are all to be removed and a new street | 100 feet wide is to be opened. The engineer in charge, Mr. ©. C. Martin, is of opinion that no obstacles are likely to arise in prosecuting this gigantic undertaking to a speedy and successful termination. The work on the anchorage at the Brooklyn side is fur advanced, THE INSURANCE CONVENTION. THE PREPARATIONS FOR THE SIXTH ANNUAL MEETING. The sixth annual Convention of the superintendents | ments of the United States will be held in this city, It | opens on the 20th of September. The delegates will rendezvous at the Fifth Avenue Hotel, and the neces- sary public meetings will be held in the Board of Under- writers’ Hall, at No. 156 Broadway. The secretary of the Conyention, Mr. Oliver Pittsbury, Insurance Com- missioner for New Hampshire, has issued a circylar, notifying the | United States of the Convention, in accordance with the | following articles of the constitutton:— | | ARTICLE 1. by the name of the National 5 s is hereby formed An association, v: o€their respective States, fur the purpose of consultation on | matters pertaining to their general superintendency. Aur. 2.—In each State where no such department exists | the Governor shall have the right to appoint # member, pro- | vided that no member shall be connected with any insurance company as officer, agent or otherwise. | “Ant. 3.—The State officers in charge of insurance affairs shall also have the.right to depute a person, eligible under the fgrezoing rule, to represent them in the event of their not being able to personally be present at any meeting, | The business of the Convention will probably occupy | about a week, during which time a variety of topics will | be discussed. ‘The form of blank known as the ‘“Michi- | gansBalance Sheet Blank” will be renewed, as it 1s pro- posed to adopt it for the annual statement of life com- panies, Hitherto life insurance companies have simply returned a general statement of the business of the \y but the above form will give the entire assets and | expenditures and show a balance sheet of the yeur’s | business, Taxation, re-insurance, amalgamations and other points of interest will be taken up and thoroughly investigated, The Secretary also adds:—“‘It is recom- | mended that each member of the Convention furnish at | least one compact dissertation upon some topic con- nected with life or fire insurance. Well digested re- marks upon subjects relating to insurance, either oral or written, from persons not. members of the Conyen- tion are respectfully solicited and will be heard by the Convention with great pleasure.” It is expected that, as the Convention is to be held at the grand business centre of gravitation and affairs of importance are to be discussed, the attendance will be large, THE JERSEY INSURANCE FRAUDS. Mr. Tyler, the agent of the Lancashire Insuranco Company at Jersey City, was called upon yesterday by several parties who had paid premiums to Alonzo B, Dean, and yet they had just received notices that their policies would be cancelled if they did not renew them, | They produced receipts similar to that given’ by Dean to Hickey, showing that they had paid the money | to Dean as representing the company. Mr. Tyler dé- nies that Dean was authorized to act for the company. The total amount of Dean’s defalcation, as far as ascer- tained, 18 $600. Great blame attaches to the police au- thorities, who had him in their custody last Saturday on fa Warrant, and yet allowed him to walk away without furnishing any ‘security whatever. offered to settle the matter by raising the amount of the defalcation, provided all the charges be withdrawn, but {ie javerence company will not eynsent to that proposi- | dor QUEENS COUNTY FAIR.
