The Order of Knights of Labor im this| Barxcx’'s City. ‘HOW THE FIRST ASSEMBLY WAS ORGANIZED— A TALK WITH THE ORIGINAL KNIGHT—THE TEACHINGS OF THE ORDER—ITS RAPID GROWTH IN FIVE YEARS There are many hallsor meeting rooms in this city provided with ante-rooms and doors having little wiekets, or traps, about on aleve? with @ man’s mouth. At most any of these halis,on most any night, one can see men ap- Proaching these doors, and whispering some- thing through the wicKet to the doorkeeper in- side. If he whispers the right word the door files open and admits him. The door is then closed, the wicket shut down and the public as represented by the outsider sees and knows no more. 1n- sidean assembly of the Knights of Labor Is in session. “The assemblies of the Knights of Labor in thiscity do not by any means com- prise mechanics only,” said @ member of the order toTHE STAR reporter. “We have men representing nearly all vocations in our assem- blies. You would surprised if you walked along 7th street or Penn. avenue with me, and T pointed out to you the business men’ who are in the order,” "The order is only five years oid in this city.’ Its organization and business were at first guarded as profound secrets. The original Knight ot Labor here was Mr. Louis Fay, of the Plasterer's assembly, who has been and still continues @ most active worker in the organization. THE STORY OF THE ORDER HERE. “In 1878 and '79,” said Mr. Fay, when asked by aSrak reporter for the story of the Knights ot Labor in this city, “the plasterers’ wages here were $1.50 a day. Other trades were about in the same condition. I was working then ou the Portiand Fiats building, and .gmong the men working with me was one froj timore. One day he asked me if i woutd Hot like to go into something that would benefit me and help build up the working class. I asked hin Wwhatit was. He told mo he could not tell ze the name of it, but if 1 could get ten men to gether he would send a committee trem Baiti- more to organize them. ‘The order was working in secret at that timé Is was six months betore I could get ten men who agreed to go in with me. On the night of the 84 of March, 1881, I had the ten plasterers to meet at the corner of Sth and E streets. I had sent word to the orgauizer in Baltimore that I had ten men willing to join the order. A com- mittee of about twenty-five, who had come over, to seo Garfield inaugurated, obligated these ten men that night—the night before the Garfield inauguration. We formed then a tem- porary organization. “On the 19th of April fol- wing we had taken in sixty more plasterers and iormed a permament organization. ‘THE FIRST RESULTS. “We worked along, then,” continued Mr. Fay, “until about June 1st,when we demanded $2.50 a day and got it without any trouble. In the following month we demanded half a doliar more and got it without trouble. ‘Then when work began on the east wing of the State department building we asked ‘a dollar inore, and it was given w us. I should like to remark, right here, that in 1879 and ’80 there was more work done here than in any season for sixteen years, since I have been working at the trade. Every boss wanted hands, and could not get them, still they did not advance wages. That shows that this talk about the demand making an increase in wages is not founded in fact. After the plas- terers were organized we worked ulong to or- ganize other trades. At first it took a great deal of talking, of course. It took me six months to get together the ten men to organize our assembly. When | approacbed a man he asked me what the organization was and I had to tell him that I did not know. He asked me the name and I had tosay I did not know it. Soon afterwards, however, other assemblies were organized, It has taken some hard work to get the organization up to its present posi- tion. It has taken agreat deal of talking to show the advantage of the order to each and every trade. But that is all over now, The trouble now is that we have to refuse many who want to come in. We won't take in any, who are about to strike, or who are coming in, we think, in order tostrike. The order is op- posed tw strikes. It educates its members against strikes and in favor of arbitration, ‘The strike and the boycott are commended only as a last resort, Now the most we have to dois toeducate new assemblies, teach them the principles of the order.

It is hard to keep track ofthem all, The smallest assembly has about 70 members; the largest about 480. Asnearas Lean come t it there are in ull of the assem- blies from 9,800 to 10,000 members. The ave- Fage membership of each assembiy is about 200, All the trades have been organized in assemblies except the granite cutters, the brick- layers and the members of the ‘Typographical union. There are four ladies’ assemblies. The colored mechanics are organized in a mixed assembly, An assembly, composed of men of different trades, is called a mixed assembly, All Of the trades organized have benefited both in @u advance of wages and in the education of the members, There is no temperauce organl- zation on the face of the earth that-has done as much good work for temperance us the Knights of Labor.

NO 6YMPATHY WITH DYNAMITERS, “Every strike In the country,” said Mr. Fay, “and such things as these recent dynamite ex- plosions are laid at the doors of the Knights of and of labor organizations. As for strikes, the Knights of Labor have nothing to do Whatever with halfof them. As for dyna- mite, we do not want such a thing in this coun- try, "We have our own remedy for grievances in the ballot. We ean elect men who will prop- erly represent us. When the order was first or ganized here I can remember there were many hot-headed fre-caters who talked about doing away with the ‘dude’ militia, and indulged in other ideas of that Kind. ‘Those men, however, have been educated and are to-day among thé Inost conservative men in the order.” mao FEMALE PRISONERS IN THE POLICE CouRT.— The first prisoner arraigned betore Judge Snell this morniag was Magzie Hawkins, a colored woman whom Officer Law arrested ‘early this morning at her serviée place on M street and prevented her from attacking her employer with a hatchet.

Archbishop Gibbons was present, be- sides the director, Father Chapelle, and ‘the Zebulon B. Vance. ‘There wasa bf members. Miss Whelan, the secretary, rendered a most encouraging uccount of the work accomplished during the year. The object of this society Is to supply struggling hurches and poor priests with suitable vest- ents and sacred vessels for the proper cele- bration of mass. It responds to the call of the needy all over the country, and effectively helps the missions, and the éHlurches located in poverty-stricken parishes, by providing neces- saries for the decencies ot religion. During the Season just closed, 133 vestments were made and distributed, and exclusive of these about 1,000 articles of various kinds, linens, sacred vessels, &c., were, also, given away. The mem- bers of the Society contributed $600 during the season,and the gifts amounted to nearly $2,000. The lidies of the society perform all the labor required, so that the money contributed goes intact to'the purchase of muterials. The fund is administered intelligently, without any tax upon it, and the modest sum’ collected and re- ceived “goes far toward helping the poor churches and the poorer priests who call upon it.

Matthews for the de- ndant. The suit arose out of the leasing of premises No. 81 Clinton avenue, and the jury’ to whom it was submitted disagreed. The trial ‘was characterized by considerable personal dis- cussion between counsel, Judge Van Alstyno styling his opponent asa ‘moke,’ and Mr, Matthews retorting with a reference to Judge ‘Van Alstyne’s political unpopularity. The case is being retried this afternoon.’ Mr. Matthews is the nominee for recorder of deeds of the District of Columbia, and Judge Van Alstyne (who arrived in Washington last evening) was the member of Congress from the Albany district In the last Congress.
