At the second day’s session of the Grand Lodge of the Independent Or- der of Odd Fellows, which opened at 10 o’clock yesterday morning, the topic that most engrossed the atten- tion of the representatives was the consideration of the report of the | Trustees’ Home at Thermalito. This | was considered in all its phases and finally adopted. The grand body ap- proved of the expenditure of $4700 for . a hospital at the home and authorized the building of an ice plant and re- frigerator at a cost not to exceed $1200. ! " 'The recommendation of Grand Master Linscott that a new digest of the laws of the order be printed was concurred in. | An amendment to the constitution to the effect that the Grand Lodge may meet in places other than San Francisco was presented and will be acted on jater in the session.

Count Cassini was offered the Embassadorship to Madrid two months ago and accepted it. The Russian Embassador at Madrid whom Count Cassini succeeds has been appointed one of the Ministers in the council of the empire. “Seven years in 4 country as the per- sonal representative of one's sover- eign,” said the Embassador to-day, “makes one more than a friend of that | country—one comes to feel almost a | part of the country. Regret is not strong enough a word to characterize | one's feelings at leaving. I leave in Washington and elsewhere throughout your great country many warm and dear friends. My work here has been of absorbing interest, as is shown by my unusually long tenure of office, and keenly as I desire to get once more in close touch with European affairs I cannot but feel a genuine sorrow at lay- ing aside the interesting problems which have engaged my attention every day of the many I have spent here.”” Baron Mayer des Planches, the Italian Embassador, will become dean of the diplomatic corps upon the de- parture of Count Cassini, who now holds that position by virtue of senior- ity of presentation. Baron Rosen, the new Russian Embassador, will be ranked even by the new Brazilian Em- bassador, who will be presented some time this month. In coming to Washington as Rus- sia’s second Embassador to the United States, Baron Rosen returns to the field of his former activities. He was formerly Consul General at New York and later Charge d’Affaires at Wash- ington for a short time. He will be ac- companied to Washington by his wife and daughter. | Cheap Rates East.

SRR State’s Entire Increase Given as No More Than That Cldimed by Los Angeles, AL Special Dispatch to The Cail. CALL BUREAU, POST BUILDING, WASHINGTON, May 10.—Director of the Census North has been making an estimate of the populations of the va- rious States and of the largest ten cities of the Union. He says that the popu- lation of the country in 1905 is about 82,589,020. California’s population is 1,403,239, an increase of about 19,000 since 1904. Director North places San Francisco in the list as the ninth city in size, and gives its population as 360,298 in 1904 and 364,677 in 1905. These figures do not speak very accurately for the United States census office method of calculating, as according to the esti- mates San Francisco has grown only a few thousand since 1900. According to Chamber of Commerce figures San Francisco has about 430,000 inhabitants. ‘Washington has just completed a po- lice census, that shows that the city has more than 322,000 inhabitants, yet Washington to all appearances that tend to establish such things-has not more than one-half the population of San Francisco. Promotion Committee maps largely distributed here claim 425,000 popula- | tion for San Francisco, which is only a few thousand more than the water company’'s estimates riade there some months ago. Some controversy has resulted among those intérested on account of the wide differences between coast and Wash- ington estimates. The Southern Pacific and Santa Fe figures show that thou- sands of persons have been entering the State of California for settlement, yet the census calculations are that the State's population has increased only about 27,000 in one year. Los Angeles alone is claiming almost this number of increase of population for the same period, and Southern California esti- mates are that “about 40,000 people have made their homes in Southern California during the past months.” p There is a mistake somewhere, and California, particularly San Francisco, seems to be getting the worst of the error. —_— e CHURCH PRESENTS CLAIMS AGAINST. THE GOVERNMENT A Million Asked as Result of Use of Property in the Philippines by Troops. WASHINGPON, May 10.—Secretary Taft has been informed by Mgr. Fal- conio, the apostolic delegate to the United States, that a number of claims arising from the use by United States troops of church property in the Philippines during the perfod of mili- tary occupation, amounting to $1,000,- 000 or $1,500,000, have been presented there. The Secretary cabled the Philip- pine Commission for information con- cerning these claims and was informed that they had been turned over to Ma- jor General Wade, who was in com- | mand at the time the claims were pre- sented there. The Secretary will make an inquiry of General Wade, now com- manding officer of the Atlantic divi- sion, with headquarters at New York. —_———— Fire in Phelan Building.

The one hundred and thirtieth anni~ versary of the fall of Fort Ticonderoga ‘was appropriately celebrated last night by the Sons of the American Revolution with an informal banquet at the Occidental Hotel. Over fifty members of the society were present at the gathering and many speeches honoring Ethan Allen, whose bravery enabled the Americans to occupy the British stronghold, were made. The toastmaster for the occasion was the president of the society, Alex- ander G. Eells. The first toast, after a short speech by President Eells, was responded to by Fairfax Wheelan, who chose for his subject “The Inherited Civic Obligation of the Sons of the American Revolution.” Professor D.
