LABOR PROBLEMS. Address of Master Workman Powderly. GRIEVANCES OF THE TOILERS—USE OF DYNA- MITE DENOUNCED. A telegram to the New Yerk Herald from Hamilton, Ont, gives an account of, the re convening of the general assembly of the Kaights of Labor at that place yesterday, and Feporis the annual address delivered by General Master Workinan Powderly, as follows: VIEWS OF Mi. POWDERLY. In his message Mr. Powderly says: “When the sum nt forth in 1877 to the un- known 1 red divisions of the order of the Knights of Labor it was answered in the elty of Reading, on January 1, 1878, by the representatives of four hundred assemblies. Today the representatives of tour thousand assemblies, respond to the eull forthe ninth xeneral axse ation of workingmen in In 1878 the order was unknown to the world and belonged to a few; to-d is known anc respected every Zs toevery map and woman who toile for a liveli- hood, to nd woman whase Liber Our work canne th THE ORDER MISREPRESENTED. After a brief review of the history of the order the general master workman recom- mends that lecturers be placed In every sec- tion of the country by the executive board the purpose of explaining the object of the wntzatlon. He says: “Not oniy do members of sion of th £ present time we have been somewhat indiffer- ent w the statements made from the public Piatiorm by ‘men who protessed to speaic for he Knights of Labor. Some of the most im- practicable and visionary schemes have been Ventilated us the pians of this order. Some kers have advocated the use of flarearins, lynamite, and. in fact, every known method of destruction. None of these things hay ever m recommended in any of the sessions of ‘the general assembly, and. the time has arrived fo puta stop to such false and pernicious teach- “It wil! not do to say that we do not advocate Such things, and that such persons as talk in that way ave in error. We must goa step fur- ther and declare that such conduct shall be a sufficient cause for expulsion from the order. And such persons as talk upon these schemes. in an assembly of the Kulghts of Labor sball be called to order by the master workman, «nd {they refuse to recall their words they aball be deemed guiity of » violation of obligation and suspended or expelled. We must have no more tampering with this matter. The use of dynamite and fire arms may at ‘some future day be calied into practice, but i! they are ever ‘used in the Inbor question it will be because the remedies offered by the Knights of Labor fail orare discarded. Task that a law be b; this body which will fully cover the points have raised in this matter. ‘TREATMENT OF STRIKERS. “During the past few months a number of se- rious disturbances have taken place in the la- bor world. Men have grown restive under the treatment they were receiving and have struck ust the lmpositions belug, practiced tpon nem. It has become quite fashionable of late to refuse to treat with workingmen while the: are out ou strike. No terms wil be made wit them until they return to work. In some cases violence was practiced, in others It was hinted at age in others rouzhs were bargained for to disturb the peace in order that the militia could be called out. In all of these cases the only thing that was necessary was an under standing between the employer and the em- ploye. Had these two forces come together, either through their agents or principals, all of the difficulties which haveoceurred could have been avoided. Lam not prepared to say that the workers had justice on their side in every instance, but [ um positive that the introduc- tion of the Pinkerton detectives as an agent in the settiement of disputes is entirely foreign to the letter and spirit of the constitution of our common country. The civil authorities snould atall times be sufficient to keep the peace in the event of a controversy between labor and capital. But whether they doso or not there exists ne necessity for the calling out of an army that fs gusrinteed no power by either state or national law. CONVICT LABOR ON NATIONAL WORK. “The attention of the people of America was directed not long since to the letting of a con- tract for the erection of a government building tan employer of convict labor. The reason assigned for letting the contract to such a per- son Was ‘that the work would be done cheaper than {t the contract were awarded to an em- ploxer of honest labor: that the government ‘no business to inquire who did the work so long as it was done cheaply.” Such a dvc- trine may be in accordance with the law as at present framed, but if it is the law should be Fepealed at once. The sin of cheapness is be- coming a national one, and must be punished in one way or another if persisted in. With the ‘umber of industrious men waiking the streets of our cities and towns in idleness,it seems to me to be nothing less than criminal for government toaward a contract to an employer of cheap labor, no matter whether it comes from the penitentiary or a foreign land.” CHEAP FOREIGN LABOR, Mr. Powderly says the bill to prohibit the em- ployment of foreign labor under contract, which was introduced by M. A. Foran at the Jast session of Congress, was. good one, but was rendered inoperative by the striking out of the section which allowed one-half of the flue to go to the person making the complaint, no matter whether that person was the one with whom the contract was made or a third part, He adds: “We should zo before Congress again and see that an amendment is ided to the bill which will make it of some service to the coun- try. @ government {3 good for anything it should protect those who support it. If a gov- ernment ought to protect any man, it is the man whose body it can place in the front rank on the battlefield; it 1s the man whose Iife it ean take in defense Of the state, and not the man who Is at liberty to flee al the irst note of danger, who is at liberty to ally himself with the enemy whea the ligertles of the country are in Jeopardy.” LACK OF EMPLOYMENT. Mr, Powderly says that “for the past two years we have had, and still have, more men out of employ ment than at any time in the his- nation. The prospects for the coming hot at ali encouraging. It seems to me that something should be done by the na- Yonai legisiature to relieve the distress of the People Whe cannot tind employment. There ents to be made in all parts of the 'y. Where inen could be set to work if Con- gress Will ouly enact the proper legislation,” THE LAND QUESTION, c land question at | ‘At the last ses called the atten- e rapidity with whieh ican people was slip- feet. ‘The practice of per- lange tracts of sion of the gen tion of that bod, living ‘in te such an exten’ upward o: twen' a acres of Ameri- can lands are owned by men who have never set too on American soi. This question is a living one and is of such a nature that we cane not shirk or avold {t. I believe that the burg! who enters the house at night while the ine nates are sleeping, and carrtes off such money and valuables as he can lay his hands on, has as Just a ttle to these possessions as has inany ® fap who now lays claim to American lads, An the future the duty of the government must be to build up and guard the interests of ite common people. The laboring element of this country, which includes the agricuitara, me chanical and laboring classes, inust be protect- ed. They must become so strong that they can Fesist the extremes of poverty and wealth.” REMEDIAL SUGGESTIONS OFFERED. Mr. Powderly suggested that representatives of labor be stationed at nation: n be estim wed {tals to watel: the progress ol labor legislation | and checkmate the loobyists Who seek to tam- per with the people's represeatatives ip pre- Venting the pase of wiolesome laws. He also advised that some trusted pecson be stax Honed at Castle Garden, to give information in to the violation of the foreign contract law. He suggests the holding of 81 conventions of the order annually for the pur Pade of discussing labor questiv et snap ping out necessary iegislation. vocates the organizat board of industry in every manic!

Herpub- lishers, Messrs, Funk & Wagnalls, have never heard of the alleged novel and they place no faith in the report that the President’s sister is Finding out ieht literature: The lady was in er oifice on Saturday and made no reterence whatever to tue matter.

Chicago Wednesday and Thursday, November 11 and 12, 1885, of all those,of whatever po- litieal faith or party allegiance, who desire to co-operate In promoting the relief of American people from the burdens of the present tariff, Whether they believe in immediate and mode- rate reduction of tariff taxes or in a more thor- ough change in our system of taxation, The purpose of the meeting js to promote immediate action by the present representatives ot the peo- 1c, and failing that, to consider the adyisabil- y of independent action on the part of those interested in this reform. Those in sympathy h this cause, whether belonging to existing nizations or not, are invited to be present at the conference, and it is urged that in states and localities where no organization exists steps should be taken to form such organiza- tions which may be officially represented ut the conference. The basis of representation will be to cach state as_m: votes as it has members in both houses of Congress, provided. so Many or more be present from that state; if not. so many, then each person present from the state to have'one vote.” see Shell Heaps in Oregon. From the Portiand Oregonian. The coast of Oregon is dotted with deposits of shells, the only records left of a numerous race of people now practically extinct. The traveler is told that they were formed by the sh-eating Indians. It is probable that the In- dians of the injand valleys made trips to the . 48 the shell deposits are numerous and Many ot them extensive. Some of them are on the very shore of the ocean, where they are laid open to view by tho. wearing away of the bank; others are situated along: bays and streains, many hidden by a covering ot soil, and unuoticed till penetrated by the spade of the laborers or the plow of the husbandman, A Counterfeiter Convicted. JONATHAN HUGHES POSTPONES SENTENCE BY FALLING IN A ¥IT AT THE JUDGE'S FEET. Jonathan Hughes was tried in the federal court at Trenton, N. J.,yesterday on a charge of manufacturing and passing counterfeit silver money in Elmer, Cumberland county, N. J. Secret Service Officer Bell arrested him at the camp-mecting at Pitman grove last August. A. ‘Prenton special to the Philadelphia Press says: ‘The prisoner led a double life, that of a Chris tian and of a counterfeiter. On the night of h rest he offered to show the detective where his tools were secreted. He supposed the officer knew, and that st would be a good thing for him when brought into court to have It shown that he surrendered his implements, The officer, carrying u lantern, went with him into the woods skirting the town, and In the shade of a tree, beneath a pile of leaves, discov- ered the tools, consisting of plaster Paris moulds and the usual paraphernalia, ‘The prisoner was convicted, and when arraigned jor sentence fell in a fit at the judge's feet. Two physicians worked with him several hours before he could removed. The sentence will be imposed next Tuesd: Dynamite and G ttom Not Good for Is. From the Conrt Journ: The experiments with high explosives have been concluded at Lydd. Although the results have not been ofsuch a nature as to justify any practical use of dynamite.gun cotton, or other dangerous compounds in connection with shell firing, still much valuable information has been obtained, It is found that the effect of the ex- plosives ” against earthworks, intrenchment: &e,, is not greater than that of shells filled with the ordinary gunpowder, and, of course, the danger of premature “bursts” constitutes a drawback to their use. Gun cotton. is of least value, the shells nearly all being “blind,” te, the fuse falls to ignite, or rather to detonate the charges. _ Blasting gelatine, on the other hand, was found to act too soon, and it was this ener- getic compound which, after twice bursting the shells prematurely, on the third round shat vered the howitzer from which it was fired. Another method was that invented by a Ger- man who conducted his experiments im person, and this was, on the whole, successful. Nitric acid and another highly dangerous chemical were enclosed in the shells in giass flasks, and on the shock of discharge the flasks ‘were broken, the two substances being subsequently thoroughly mixed by the rotation of the shel in its progress through the air. ‘The second shock, when the shell struck the ground, ploded the latter with excellent effect. ft is admitted that where it would be necessary to make abreach in # fort or vessel defended by. metal plating of any kind, these shells would. be superior In effect to the ordinary projectiles tired with gunpowder. ‘1 ir action is local— that is, the whole, or nearly the whole, of the foree is expended on the spot where tle shel strikes, The biasting gelatine is now’ bein: Utilized by the royal engincers, who are ubout to conduct a series of interest ‘periments in its use in connection with the nolition of stockudes and other similar defenses, The question will have been thoroughly gone into Lefore the stock of explosives is exhausted. ee CONFESSING THE MURDER or CLARA Hoven.—At Mansfield, Ohio, yesterday alter noon John Cromer confessed that Jaines Wi naus killed Clara Hough, the young Indy who was found murdered near that plice mshort time ago, ‘The woman Was assaulted, and frus- trating the designs of her assailant, hé shot and Killed her to escape detection, ’ Cromer and ‘Winans are minoi see —__ Born His Hanns Buown Orr.—During the ceremonies attending the opening we Bowne island dam at Pittsburg yesterday a gun was prematuzely discharged.
