On the Democratic side it is | understood that M. C. Hassett may seek the nomination, and that Percy L. Hen-| | derson would be willing to lead the for- lorn hope. | The Twenty-fourth District, com- posed of the Forty-second and rorty- third Assembly districts, is likewise fer- tile of ambitous lawmakers. Leon Den- nery and George A. Willlams, who was an independent candidate in opposition to the late Senstor Mahoney four years ago, are out early and vigorously for the nomination, and other aepublicans who are undersfood to be ready to enter the race are Attorney Thomas Kase, Alonzo | Henry, M. Flynn and Willlam H. Brady. R. Porter Ashe and Joseph P. Hayes are hames that the Democratic convention may hear. For the Assembly Peter Kelly of the | License Collector’s office and James Len- non are among the Republican possibil- itles in the Twenty-eighth, and ex- mblyman E. F. Lacy is one of the De: pcratic aspirants. > In the Twenty-ninth E. J. Faulkner of the License Collector's office is in line for the Democratic nomination, and D. J. Crowley, a member of the Count’ Com- mittee two years ago; Stephen Nolan and John McDonald, who sought the nomina- two years ago, are other Democratic {rants. homas Doran and Isaac Erb, both dep- uties in the County Clerk’s office, are pos- sible Republican nominees in the Thir- tieth District. In the Democratic ranks the most prominently mentioned —aspi- rants are ex-Assemblyman Barney Con- way, George Smith of the Commfttee of 100, James Creighton and James Creegan. The citizenship of theThirty-first pro- vides quite a list according to ‘current po- litical speculation. On the Republican side are Thomas Doherty, M. J. McDon- ald, Thomas Brophy, James Brady and Frank Keogh. Among the many Demo- crats willing to try their hands at law- glving are James Kennedy of the Sheriff's office and president of the Excelsior Club, James McElarney, Joseph F. Carrick and John Mohegan. In the Thirty-second Robert Donahue Is being groomed by John F. McGovern, sec- retary of the Harney County Committee. Ex-Policeman W. H. Harrison, now a health inspector and a candidate for the Assembly twice before, is out for the nomination, James Lucy of the Superin- tendent of Streets’ and James Mooney, well known in the politics of the district, are also Democratic aspirants.

Investigating Committee Appointed by the Supreme Lodge [s Still Probing Alleged Ir- regularities. Spectal Dispatch to The Call. INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 27.—The Su- about all that remains of the biennial encampment. All of the Uniform Rank and subordinate lodge companies have left the city, and Camp Colgrove is de- serted. The Rathbone Sisters and Knights of Khorassan held their final sessions to-day. The investigating committee appointed by the Supreme Lodge still holding meetings, but will prob- ably not report at this meeting. The Supreme Lodge has much business to week longer. Representative W. L. Scism of Ne- braska, who has been fighting the offi- cers of the Supreme Lodge vigorously for several months and is reported to have made charges of excessive ex- pense accounts, has introduced a num- ber of resolutions this session, all having a tendency to restrict all the officers. One resolution aimed at the su- | preme keeper of records and seals, says he shall keep an accurate account, showing the exact financial condition of the Supreme Lodge at all times, and of the deputy supreme chancellors, supreme master of the exchequer until the bill for the particular service shall on finance. Another resolution directed at that he shall keep an account in de- tailed form of all receipts and disburse- ments, and shall each quarter prepare a detailed report, showing the date of each remittance from the supreme keeper of the records and seals, and the amounts of money paid out, together with the name of the payee. These re- ports are to be sent to the Supreme and Grand Lodge officers and to the preme Lodge, Knights of Pythias, 18| is | consider yet and may be in session a | and documents at | keep the accounts of the Grand Lodges and shall not draw any orders on the have been approved by the committee | the supreme master of the exchequer states Pythian papers. In another document Representative Scism asked that the supreme master of the exchequer at- tend every meeting of the Supreme Lodge and come prepared to turn over all funds to his successor, also bring with him an itemized report showing the expenditures and receipts during the two years. A fourth resolution asks that the i chairman of the committee on printing be instructed to advertise for bids on | all printing in at least one leading daily paper in not less than three of the lead- ing cities of the country and in all| Pythian papers, the daily journal of the | Supreme Lodge and secret work being) omitted. It provides that the commit- tee is also to invite bids from the lead- | ing printers throughout the country. Sealed bids are to be received and not opened unless the chairman of the committee and at least three members are present. The committee is to sub- mit a printed report showing the .cost of all printed matter during the time it was in power, together with the num- ber of bids received for each job and | the amounts of the bids. | The report of John A. Hinzey, treas- urer of the endowment rank of the Knights of Pythias, was referred by the Supreme Lodge this morning to the | committee on endowment rank and the election of Mr. Hinzey or his successor was postponed until the committee makes its report on Hinzey's report. In addition to the officers elected yes- terday the Supreme Lodge elected the following: James Moulson, St. John, | B., supreme prelate; R. L. C. White, | | Nashville, Tenn., supreme keeper of ! records and seal; Thomas D. Mears, | Wilmington, N. C., supreme master of | exchequer; H. A. Bigelow, Seattle, su- | preme master at arms; M.
