MATTER STANDS OPEN FOR ANOTHER YEAR I'uo < < * of lU'.iolulloii * IiitroiliK-cd nuil llflintril to the Knil Hint .VcltliiT IN .Vilotid-il li > - the fir n ml The controversy over the location for the proposed Odd Fellows' Orphans' home , which It nas expected would be settled once and for all at the present session of the grand lodge. In practically as far from set tlement us It was a year ago. The question occupied the greater part of both Hesstom of the grand lodge yesterday , but this bodj failed to take any definite action and the matter goes over to next year's grand lodge , The only fctep looking to some settlemem of the vexed question was the appolntmenl of a committee , which shall report at nex ! year's session. The question was brought ! before the grand ledge at the morning PcsBlon by Judge Hen derson of Indlanola , who Inttoduced a sei of resolutions the adoption ot which hi urged as an equitable settlement of th < dispute. The resolutions were as follows : Resolved , First , that upon condition o and in consideration of a cancellation o the contract for the Orphans' Home between twoen the grand lodge and Indlanota lodge No. 70. that there be nald to said Indtanolt ledge the amount of money expended by It Its loss of Interest on Its funds and expense Incurred nnd all Just liabilities and obllga lions on account of the said contract am also the actual costs and expenses paid li printing record ami briefs In the appeal ; to the sovereign grand lodge. It being tin Bplrlt , Intent and purpose of this resolutloi that said Indlanola lodce shall be mad < whole , reimbursed and all Just claims ot at nature nnd kind bo paid and none others. Second , that there bu paid to Green lodge No. .115 , of Jetferson , nil money Justly expended ponded and liabilities contracted or Inrurrei bv It In accordance of and In compllanc with the action of the grand lodge for th Orphans' Homo. Third , that a committee of J , F. Spare o Council Blntt's. J S. Bellamy of Knoxvll and J. C. Milliman of Logan , be appolntei by and In behalf of this grand lodga t settle and adjust said claims upon a Just fair and equitable basis to the lodges am thin grand lodge und when adjusted am their report showing the full statement o all claims allowed , that ordcrn or warrant of this grand lodge be drawn by the gram secretary and paid by the grand treasure to the lodge or the parties having claims the amount hereof , as shown on their repor so filed. filed.Would Would Stnrt All Over Aftnln. Fourth , that when the contract bctweei Indlanola ledge nnd this grand lodge IB can celled and surrendered ns contemplated nn provided In this section , that then all actlo ; nnd legislation of the grand lodge be recon HldeTod. set nsldu and annulled. Fifth , that the committee provided li these resolutions report to this grand lodg at Its next annual meeting upon a propose locution or location for the home In this Juris diction , without asking for propositions n bids on the cost of grounds , buildings , etc and make mich recommendations as In It Judgment should be presented and that a the said session , upon said report and a ! other proper considerations , the question c the Orphans' Home be considered and da tcrmlncd by this grand lodge on Its merlti free and uiitrommeled by any of the coutro vorsles ) hud in the past. Action on the resolutions was postpone until the afternoon ncsslon , when Gran Master J. C. Longuoville of Dubuque Intro duced the following as a substitute : Whereas , It IB apparent that there Ig u present need for an Orphans' Home in thl jurisdiction ; and Whereas. It Is desirable that the quostlo be settled as speedily as possible ; thcrcfori bo It Hesolvcd , That the project ot building : home bo Indefinitely postponed ; 1 Resolved , That a committee of three , j ; majority of whom shall be held over rej resentatlves , shall be appointed by the pres cnt grand master and whose duty It shall I ; to ascertain all claims which muy exls against the grand lodge by reason of an former action of this grand lodge and wll shall report same to the next session c the grand lodge with their recommenda lions thereon. Resolved , That nil proceedings hcretofor taken relative to the erection of an Orphan ; Home bo rescinded and annulled. By a vote of ninety-one to six the gran lodge decided to substitute the Longuevlll resolutions for those presented by Judg Henderson , but on the question ot adoptlo of the llrst paragraph It failed to carry an a motion to strike out the lust ptragrap carried , so that all that was left of th original resolution as Introduced by Longue villo was the paragraph providing fdr th appointment ot a committee. This pr.ic tically leaves the question Just where It wa ' I'-furc , still unsettled. The only hope for utlpmont now Is that this committee wl make some recommendation at the nc. > ' l ' Cession of the grand ledge which will rrsul In final and decisive action being takcu.

Thla afternoon Mrs. Bell and John Waller , a colored friend of her husband's , went out walking In search of suitable rooms for the Bells. When , they approached the river Mrs. Bell sud- j denly ran down the embankment , wailed ) out Into the stream and lay down In the I water.

MUST .SUIUIKMIKR A KOHTUM3. Fifteen TliotiMnixl Acre * of I.nnil tliv , I'rlzc of Mtlxntlnn. 1 SIOUX CITY , Oct. 20. ( Special. ) The title to 13,000 acres of rich farm land In O'Prlen county depends on the feder.il court's decision In the test case of Schnei der against Llnksweller , which Is about tc be argued before Judge Shlras , said 13. U , Evans of Des Molnes , cx-reglster of tht government land office , who Is at the Mon- damln. It was during the administration of Sir , Evans that the land olllce decided the 16C cases , the final settlement of which mom ? so much to many of the farmers around Sheldon. Among the llrst of these oases i was that of Schneider against Llnksweller , which has been the test case through all 1 the lltlgatlpn. It was the test case before I the secretary of the Interior and before I Register Evans. ' After Mr. Evans' retirement from the of fice of register he was engaged by Mr. Schneider to defend his claim to the title o ! the farm in question. Regarding the hlfltory of this test case and the signifi cance of the decision soon to be made , Mh. Evans said : "Tho decision In this case was approved and the patent has been Issued clea1 through. Llnkswellop now has brought action In the Unlti States court to stt asldo the title. If this patent should be set aside It means that l..OOO acres of land In O'Brien county of the 20,000 forfeited by the Sioux City & St. Paul Railroad com pany , will bo taken from the men who have had possession of It for fifteen or twerty years , living on It and Improving It , and given to men who have IIP " on lnt"rejl in It , under the homestead law. "John Schneider of Sheldon originally bought the land from the railroad company , paying on the purchase price $1,500. Ho 1ms been in possession of it since 1882 and the improvements he has made amount to about $3,000. Llnksweller never had seen fho land until he applied to enter It as a homestead when the land was restored to the public domain by the decision of the supreme court of the United States , holding that the rail road company had forfeited. "This forfeit of the railroad company was in Its failure to build the road from Le.Mars to Sioux City Instead of running In over the cracks of the Illinois Central.
