CHICAGO. April Jn At the spring meet
ing of Oriental consistory, Mystic Shrlnors,
held here yesterday, It was decided thnt
the $ino.(Vlf) appropriated for the entertain
ment of the Phrlners at their nntlnnal en
enmpment, to be held at Ixs Anpeles In
May, be turned over to the relief of the
Sufferers of the San Francisco ratnttr.ipli.
In place of the elaborate meeting which
had been planned for the Sirlne: they
will hold a business meeting In Chicago.
The money which was subscribed for The
encampment was given Ty the city of 1 vie
Angeles, Its residents and the Masonic
order.
The foregoing telegram is full of errors
and does not describe the situation relative
to the probable postponement of the meet
ing of the Imperial council at Los Angeles
In May. Tast Imperial Potentate Akin of
Omaha said Friday morning:
"Oriental consistory of Chicago Is a local
body of the Scottish Rile fraternity -and Is
not connected with the Mystic Shrine. Tho
action referred to doubtless relates to thit
of Medina temple, Order of the Mystic
Shrine, at Chicago, and In that even could
be but a recommendation, as so imports nt
a measure would have to be sanctioned
by the Imperial council.
"The nobles of Al Malaikah temple of
Lo Angeles have ralfed and appropriated
$W,0O0 for the entertainment of the Imperial
council there In May. In view of the great
calamity at San Francisco the wish Is
spreading throughout th entire Imperial
Jurisdiction that this fund had better be
devoted to the alleviation of the distress
ot the San Francisco sufferers, and that
the proposed ceremonial meeting of the
Imperial council be abandoned for this year
at least. Medina temple of Chicago holds
this view and recommended at its meeting
last night that simply a business session
ot the Imperial council be held at some
central point, preferably t Chicago.
"Tangier temple of Omaha entertains a
similar view, but rather favors that the
business session be held at Denver. The
matter was discussed at our meeting here
Thursday and two plans were proposed.
One was that the Imperial council may de
cide that the present officers shall hold
over for another year and the meeting at
Lo Angeles be abandoned entirely. Also
that the money that would be devoted hy
the different temple throughout the coun
try to make the Lo Angele visit be sent
to th relief committee."

Closed BaaVa After Harried Kilts from
City leave California stranded.
OAKLAND, Cn.1., April 29. Among the
refugee from Ran Francisco who found
themselves stranded In thl clly today Were
John Singleton, a Lit Angeles millionaire,
hi wife and her sister. The Singletons
were staying at the Palace hotel when the
earthquake shock occurred on Wednesday
morning. Mr. Singleton gives the follow
ing account of his experience;
"The shock wrecked the rooms in which
we were sleeping. We managed to get our
clothe on nd get out Immediately. We
had been at the hotel only two day am!
left probably $3,0X1 worth of personal effect
In the room.
'After leaving the Palace we secured an
express wagon for $25 to take us to the
Casino, near Golden Gate park, where we
stayed Wednesday night. On Thursday
morning we managed to get a conveyance
at enormous cost and spent the entire day
In getting to the Palace. We paid $1 apiece
for eggs and $1 for a loaf of bread. On
these and a little ham w had to be satis
fied. We reached Oakland last night on a
ferryboat and are now trying to get bark
to Lo Angeles."
Mr. Singleton, Ilk thousands of other
people In Oakland, found himself without
fund thl morning, and it them are no
bank open and none will be open until
Monday, he had difficulty In securing cash
until he met some on who know him. The
people who find themselves without money
in Oakland are numerous and all are hav
ing difficulty In securing cash, owing to
Uie bank and business house being closed
by proclamation of th governor. Those
who are unable to buy food, however, are
being supplied by the local relief commit
tees and the various churches are being
thrown open to accommodate the homeless
from across the bay.

Former Civil Service Commissioner
Blames Senators for Much.
Evil In Government.
CHICAGO, April 20. The I'nlted State
senate came In for sharp criticism last

'The senate," said he, "has been op
posed to every Impoitont reform Inaug
urated by President Roosevelt and it 1
a grave question whether the legislative
body represents the people. It I opposed
to the Roosevelt policy on the Panama

Universal legislation, which gsve the
smaller state the same number of sena
tors as a populous state, such as New

th evil.
'In these small states," he declared.
"the senators buy their elections. They
do not represent anybody but themselve
and their selfish Interests."
He said the only thing that would glv
the peopl fair representation would be a
revolution, peaceful or etherwlse.
