stance of a new board of management of the endowment rank, and required for its completiau a period ot nearir five weeks. The report discloses that the rank met with serious losses in investments in ccal mines in Texas, in certain of its Chicago mortgage loans, in its investments in the Lexington hotel in Chicago, and in its claim against the City National bank of Fort Worth, Texas. It also was found that disbursements of certain mo.eys,' not large in amounts, had been made for which no sufficient vouchers could be found. It was discovered 'hat for many years the rank, in reporting its cash on hand in its annual reports to insurance departments returned an amount which did not exist in fact when, indeed; there was actual overdrafts and a balance against it. These overdrafts appeared in each of the reports from 1835 to 1S98.

inclusive. In May, 1891, instead of a surplus of $225,807. there was a deficiency of "It is claimed." continues the report, "by the officers of the endowment rank that its members should have no anxiety as to the liquidation of all of its death, claims, for the reason that the supreme lodge. Knights of Pythias, with assets aggregating $10,000,000. together with a membership exceeding 500,000.

stands behind every certificate issued. The laws and rules of the supreme lodge support every power and authority granted to the board of control of the endowment rank, and this, therefore, becomes effective as a guarantee for the faithful discharge of all obligations entered into by the board of control of the endowment rank." John A. Hinsey, ex-president of the board of control, said last night he was ready to meet any and all charges in open meeting, and to defend every act in his administration. 4 Leave Rock Is'and on the R.

Edens, superintendent of the free delivery, was at the Moline post-ofiice yesterday.

His visit was in the form of a friencly one. as the local postoffice at the present time has nothing to ask for. It is sure, however, that as soon as the district about Hawthorn yards acquires its pace and increases sufficiently in population, the local postal authorities will be in a position to ask for the proposed substation.

Today in Presence of Relatives. OFF ON TOUR TO MICHIGAN City Council's Gift to Fourth Ward Alderman Is Tall and Handsomely Cut Class Vase. Alderman C. H. Perrin and Miss Alice Adele Morse were married this morning at the home of Mr.

and Mrs. A. T. Foster on Eighteenth street. The ceremony was performed at 10 o'clock in the presence of immediate relatives comprising a party of fifteen.

The Rev. W. W. Willard officiated and the ring ceremony of the Episcopal church was used in un.ting the two lives. The appointments for this happy event were in keeping with the desire for a simple ceremony.

Nasturtiums and ferns were used in the floral decorations of the parlor, and white carnations and ferns caught by white ribbon were festooned cbout the chandelier under which the ceremony was performed. In the diningroom garlands of sweet peas were stretched from the chandelier to the four coiners of the dining table, presenting a pretty effect. The bride was gowned in white batiste trimmed with serpentine lace. and was a picture of sweet radiance. She wore for traveling a gown of gray broadcloth trimmed with gray silk and pink velvet with hat to match.

Miss Grace Warrington, a niece of the groom, played Mendelssohn's wed ding march and promptly at the hour the groom descended the stairs and there awaited his bride, and together thev advanced unattended into the parlor to meet the officiating clergyman and to take the solemn vows. There were hearty congratulations to extend after the ceremony, for this was a union in whose approach friends and family have taken the greatest pleasure. And there was a wealth of gifts, cut glass, silver and other tokens of the good will and well wishes of the groom and the many friends the bride has drawn about her druing her three years' stay in Moline. The mayor and city council tendered a tall and handsomely cut glass case and mirror, and the stenographers of the Moline Plow Co. a cut glass olive dish.

A wedding breakfast was served at 10:45, and at noo.i Mr. and Mrs. Perrin left over the Rock IsJand road for Chi cago and a wedding tour which also in cludes a stop at several points in Mich igan. They sail Thursday on the Man- itou for Bay View to visit friends of Mrs. Perrin's.

and later go on to Cold-water, for a stay at the honie of Mrs. Perrin's parents, who were prevented from attending the ceremony here. The trip will take up the greater part of three weeks, when Mr, and Mrs. Perrin will settle down to house keeping on Twentieth street. Silk Gloves.

A stirring fight was especially looked for in the event that direct charges of the improper use of money should be brought against certain former officials of the endowment rank. As a preliminaiy to the investigation by the supreme lodge, the results of an exhaustive examination by the Illinois and Connecticut insurance departments were made public yesterday. Richard S.

Rooke. of Emporia. and Miss Cora H. Bell, of La Rose, were married Saturday evening by Justice W. W.

Clarke, the ceremony being performed at the home in Rock Island. J. II White, formerly in the United States army in the Philippines, was in Rock Island yesterday with his wife and sister, Mrs. Fred Coflland. of Aledo.

Mrs. White is a native of the islands, and she ind her husband came to this country immediately after their marriage about eighteen months ago. They had been i.t America but a few days when the husband was ordered back to his command and he was compelled to leave hin bride with his sister in Aledo.

$1,000 FROM G. A. STEPHENS Is the First Subscription Several Site Offers Made to Dr. Froom. The item in the Dispatch last evening regarding the possible loss of the Moline branch of the Battle Creek Sanitarium, brings from Dr.

Froom the ideas of the Battle Creek Sanitarium people regarding what should be done here to retain tlie institution. They want a bigger and better institution here, failing to get which they propose to remove Dr. Froom to Los Angeles, where they would pat him in charge of a big new institution, in which $200,000 is to be expended at once in buildings. If, however, Moline or any of the three cities here grouped takes sufficient interest in branch here to give a site for an adequate institution and say $10,000 or more in cash in addition, the Battle Creek people will expend all the cash donated and an equal amount from their own funds in fitting up a moderately-equipped and suitably large establishment, be placed under the direction of Dr. Froom.

Quite a number of our people are very anxious thai the institution shall be retained in Moline and enlarged in the manner suggested. G. A. Stephens has come to tine with an offer of toward the 110,000 that is wanted. II.

V. Cooper is iilso interested, and he says thit he will subscribe something toward the same fund. Three or four site-offers have also been obtained by Dr. Froom. AH of these save one are in the shape of offers of direct eifts.

The one exception is an offer to sell. The gift offers are made with the idea in mind that the location of ir an institution will increase the value of surrounding property. A meeting of the Business association is to be held tonight at which this whole matter will be canvassed, and at which G. A. Stephens will have a communication urging that favorable attention be given to the proposition of the institution.

Letter from Dr. Kellogg. Dr. Froom is in receipt of a letter from Dr. president of the parent institution at Battle Creek, which letter speaks for itself.

The letter is given herewith: Battle Creek, July 4. Dr. J. K. Froom, Moline.

111. Dear Doctor: I am I did not have an opportunity to upon you when passing through from the west, but my transportation being arranged by the Nurthwt stern. I could not do so without nir re loss of time than 1 could afford just at present. The development of your work in Molin the year that you have In en loc ited there has been a source of great ratssfat lion and interest to the International Medical Missionary board. It is not a matter of surprise, howwer.

as we fnd the saiii' interest silt cess attending our sanitarium work everywhere, not only in this country, but in t'istant foreign countries, where our vork has hern uiihin th last few years. There are sick people enough in Moline and the rdjaornt cults to occupy the attention of several physicians who are as familiar with the sanitarium methods as you are and as competent to represent them, ft ml to fill an institution ousting who its nt any-v here from thirty to sixty thousand dolh-rs. It is the feeling of the board at with the business nnd professional expeiience you have had, you are competent to siuerintond a work of much l-irger magnitude than yo.i are now conducting, and that you should at once lay before the citizens of Moline a proposition for cooperating with you in the establishment or an institution which will be worthy of the size and enterprising character of the three large citic.s which tre'so closely associated together. The Battle Creek Sanitarium has a large constituency in Moline, Hock Island and Davenport "These cities have sent a large number of patients to Battle Creek, and of the most Influential and estimable class of peorle. Thes persons and their friends apprecla1 the value and the character of onr work nnd will no doubt be reedy to back up suc a sanitarium enterprise as the situation demands.

What Is Wanted Here. Yon wijht to have a building capable ct rccomniodati'-g not less than forty or fifty patients, bathrooms equipped with most modern and complete appli nursing. The institution will be expected to be an education center and the headquarters for our work in that part of the United States, and will as rapidly as possible develop branches in the surrounding cities. I am just returning from a visit to the west where we already have a number of institutions fully equipped and doing a large business, and find urgent demand for the location of new institutions in various places. In Los Angeles, where Dr.

Morgan began to work a year ago, we have a large building full of patients, and scores of persons applying for treatment every week who could not be rr ceived for lack of room. Wealthy citizens stand ready to spend $200,000 in the erection of a building suitable to meet the demands of the situation. I left a committee engaged in the selection of a site and am sure a splendid institution will develop at the point in a few months. What Is Expected of Mclir.e. At Madison, Wisconsin, the citizens offered a site close by the lake and $10,000 in cash beside, only asking that we shall raise $10,000, which we can readily do.

Davenport, Rock Island or Moline, one of these three great cities, ought to do a well or better than Madison, which is not a wealthy city and has a population of about twelve thousand. I am it. is only necessary for the people of the tri-cities to understand the advantages to be derived from the location of a thoroughly scientific medical institution like the Battle Creek Sanitarium in their midst, to lead them to contribute liberally toward the establishment of such an enterprise, especially as the institution will be purely charitable and philanthropic in its objects and purposes, and organized sr. that no individual tan ever reap any pecuniary advantage whatever from its operation. Peoria Wants It.

The Medical Missionary boure feels that an institution such as lias oeeii outlined above, ooght to be established somewhere near the central part of Illinois. An urgent call hay out for the location of an institution at Peoria. Other places aro offering inducements. You arc authorized to place this matter before the citizens of Moline and tin' adjacent cities ar.il ascertain as soon as you can, conveniently, what substantial inducements can be offered for the further dev ''opulent. the work which you have begun.

If you see great', thru vl.at you ive ab-ady i.j;.;!, the board fels that it would for you to change your atioo to -jite of the ot'-er points which I ave to you where yoi: ml! 1, pu. vided with much larger and better facilities for your work. 1 shall be glad to hear from as soon as you are nrepared to give definite and reliable information. Sincerely yours. J.

CHAUTAUQUA NOTES BIG TENT HAS COME The big amphitheatre t'Lt for the Moline Chautauuu.t has arrived, and it will be hoisted morrow. It is 80x120 in size, and will comfortably seat anotit twenty-five hundred people.

Holders of season tickets to the Chautauqua are minded that the tickets must ne signed. They are transferable only to members of the holder's family. It is true that tents for the Chautauqua season may be obtained at $2, but the statement ii the Dispatch yesterday that this wa? the rental for floored tents was an error. Tents with wooden floors will cost $4 for the season. Quite a number of citizens have engaged tents yesterday and today.
