Takes Office Immediately. After the hot fight was over, reconcilia-

tion speeches were made by leaders of both factions. Wade took his office today, and w ill move to Indianapolis within the next few weeks. Notwithstanding the "love feast” that was held last evening, it is said that the fight left some gaping wounds that may cause a general fight all along the line in the next Grand Lodge session. Tho time-honored plan of advancing office holders from grand outer guard, year by year, until they graduate from the chair of grand chancellor, may be attacked. There is a strong feeling In many quarters that the policy of selecting the grand chancellor six years in advance in the election of grand outer guard Is a poor one. The order of rotation prevailed yesterday without a hitch. Out of a field of fourteen candidates for grand outer guard, the doorw-ay to promotion to the head of tho organization, Arthur J. Lowe, of Greensburg, was elected to the position By advancement one office, Merrill E. Wilson became grand chancellor; George W. Powell, of Indianapolis, vice-grand chancellor; Frank Dunton, of Lagrange, grand prelate; Jonce Monyhan, of Orleans., grand master-at-arms, and Frank L. Gass, of Muncie, grand inner guard.
