The opening address was delivered by Gen. H. G. Wright, who presided. A letter from the President was read, in which he said: “Thave to-day received an invitation, on behalf of the Sedgwick Memorial Association, to attend, on the 12th of May next, the dedication of a mon- ument which shall mark the spot where Major" Gen.

Neither umpire nor bad luck can be blamed for yesterday's defeat in Boston. Tremendous work at the bat and sharp fielding brought a victory to Boston over the Statesmen, by ascoreof 19to7. An examination of the score shows that the visitors batted well, making sixteen clean hitsandearnfng allot thelr runs, Ordinarily such work would have Won the game, {but the Bostons made ninete¢n hits, many of them being two and three baggerts, and they were aided by a number of errors on the? Part of the Statesmen. Myers and Gilligan eacit tmade three hits, Hines, Kreg and Shaw two, and the others one each. On the other hand Carroll and Shock were the only statesmen who escape without errors, The reports from Boston say that they played a strong game considering the terrific batting they were compelled to face. The same clubs pay to-day, and as Radbourne has won his game, ts hoped that the Washingtons will do ter With Stemmyer, OTHER GAMES YESTERDAY. ‘The New Yorks and Philadelpnias played a great game in Philadelphia, and the “Giants” redeemed their reputation somewhat by making the only score of the game. The sti ‘le was between the plichers. Every ball pitched had a part to play An the game, The “Phfilies” couldn't hit Keefe antl the “Giants” couldn't hit Casey. Each team madé four hits off the opposing pitcher, but the New Yorks got two bases on balls to one for the home team, while the latter made up for this in having the greatest number of total hits.

How Workingmen Should Celebrate Independence Day. ‘THEY SHOULD HAVE ONLY ONR FLAG, THE STARS AND STRIPES—THE SOCIALIST WAR ON THE GENERAL ‘MASTER WORKMAN. An official circular from General Master Work- maa Powderly, at Omaha, Neb., under the date of ‘May 7, and addressed to the Order of the Knightsof Labor throughout the United States, was received in Philadelphia yesterday. Initthegeneral master Workman recommends that on the next Fourtn of July the members of the order, wherever there 18 an assembly in existence, hold demonstrations and celebrations in honor of the birth of a people’s government. “In the line of march and on your stand and public places use only one flag—the stars and stripes. Show to the world that no matter where the Knight of Labor citizen was born, he respects and honors the United States flag.” Show to the world that we are determined $0 find out what is wrong in our system of gov- nment, and we are equally as determined to right ach Wrongs as may exist by peaceful, legiti- mate meals 1 desire, also, that the quesilon Of the restoraticn of the people’s lands to the care of the people be discussed, Pass resolutions dectaring that the holding of trom fity to sixty millions of acres of the pubitc domain by altens is Sinful and unAmerican.

It is preceded by six “whe which attack Mr, Powderly for his recent pubic utterances, “in which he congratu- lates the workers on the defeat of the labor party at Chicago.” They set out that the result of the Slection was a great victors, inasmuch as the 23,579 votes cast for “the overthrow of the com- petitive system” brought the issue “for the first Ume in American politics in plain and absolutely unmistakable terms” Inoneof the “whereases”It 4s charged that an attempt had been made to lead the people astray by representing that the labor party had been endeavoring to overthow the American flag, “because some of our members also Teverence thé red flag as emblematic of the lite- bicod, which flows alike in the veins of workers of every’ nationality, and knits them in the bonds of @ common brothérhood.” It 1s charged that *old Yace antipathies” have been brought forward to divide “our forces,” and that Mr. Powderly has taken sides with “‘know-nothingisin,” and “planted himself squarely on the side of the capl- talists who are laboring to build up what they call an ‘American party,’ hoping to discredit as ‘for- eign’ those uberal ideas ae the struggles of ihe Oppressed in Europe are giving birth to, whicl ike all great ideas, are Decoming rapidiy the heri- tage of the whole world.” Mr. Powderly 1s also attacked in the preamble on religious and political grounds, “and because,” as “he is Bis orficial position to’ hinder the march of the workers on that journey, the goal of which 4s the final extinction’ of slavery, by placing all the sources of production equally and unreservedly at the disposition of all workers, regardiess of na- Uonality.” ‘Then follows the resolution, which be- gins by congratulating the brother workers in Civicago on having forced the general master workman to show his hand, &c., &¢., and cautions evexybody that Mr. Powderly, in-tead of belng “thé uncompromising foe of captalistic monop- oly,'8 Proving himself to be “one of its most powertul allies” In Philadelphia the sentiments expréssed in it and the preambles do not seem to meet with favor. ‘The document is ascribed to meuibers.of the ‘order who believe in Socialism, aisi who @re friendly to the anarchist. ‘THE AMERICA’S CUP. ‘The scvtch Yacht Thistle which will Contest for it, ‘The Thistle, Which was bullt by a syndicate of Scotch yachtsn.en, to win the America’s Cup, was launched on the Wi¥de on April 26. The New York Sun publishes the” following description of her: She has a clipper stc%a, topped with a large thistle in Meu of a figurehead, thescrollof the trail boards being relieved with the’ arms and motto of the Scottish nation: Nemo mx tmpune lacessit, The bull 1s constructed of Siemcws-Martin mild steel, the lead keel ballast being ra tanto the circular keel plate, instead of being poXted solid on the outside, as is usually done. Her Wasts are made of finest 01 pine sticks. In tNe designing of this vessel Mr, G. L. Watson has considerably departed from’ his earlier famous Yachts—Van- duara, Wendur, and Marjorie—the Th We havi much ‘more beain than either of tue yac. Ws Dain She 1s much rounder on the side, and h.¥8 4 flare Up from the load-water line toward the ra Y, Which will be of great advantage to her in stana og the enormous press of canvass which it 1s in tended she Will carry, She has also a considerable Over- dang of stem and stern, which will enable hc¥ to carry her head sails’ well forward, which, of course, will necesitate the mast belt stepped Bearer the stem than is customary in cutter yachts. This arrangement will give an exce,- Uonally large mainsail. The Thistle’s dimension’ ‘are: Length on lond-water line, 85 feet; lemqrch, TF custoIns, 98 feet; breadth, extreme, 30.3 1621; lepth, 14.1 feet; tonnage, 100'tons. WHAT A.RCOTCH PAPER SAYS. ‘The Scottish News has the following: The Amerl- ca Cup has now been in the possession of the ‘United States for thirty-six years,,and our builders cannot, therefore, be said to have been-in any hurry to adopt novelties in the way of yacht building. They have, on the contrary, adhered to their own models and their own ideas of what a yachtshould be. They have preferree sea~ ing qualities to racing speed. When the Amer- | ica cume over,in 1851, she carried off the cup after Deating the whole fet of English yachts. Her History was 0 decisive that no atcempe v9 ‘bring the cup home was made until 1870, when the Cambria tried and failea. In the tollowing year Livonla tried to wrest the trophy from America, and was also defeated. ‘Then caine the similarly futile efforts of the Canadian Countess of Dui- ferin in 1876, of the Atalanta in 1881, of the Genesta in and of the Galatea im 1886. In each of these cases America won because the American model of a fast yacht for Inshore racing, as distinguished from an ‘ocean racer, Was. supe- rior to the British. We do not assert the defeated yacht, in any instance, rej ved the British empire, and at that point te touch a most objectionable ‘anomaly ‘attaching ‘to this com- tition, . Any private owner can send a chal- Fenge to ‘the’ United Staves, although’ there may be half a dozen faster yachts at home than the one he proposes to enter for the cup. ‘Thereafter he meets a yacht, carefully selected after competitive to represent trans- atlantic yachtsmen, as, for uhe tme being, the fastest sailer in American waters. While adhering two our general conclusions as to the respective models, we admit that the result have bean different in some of the bygone matches had the fastest British Yacht, selected after tion bby Teagon of Superlor Speed, been sent to 4 Great Butain in @ really international race. The case of the Thisile illustrates the absurdity of the present It 1 open Lo us, or to any one else, to forecast her speed trom her dimensions. But the fact remains that she ls committed to represent the Cigde before she has vouched tne water. | We may commend her dest ane irection, even if we doubt ‘The correspondence with reference to the seizure ‘his latest reply, dated in January, Secretary of ‘said he could not come ‘State Bayard any dects- to from @BERIEN WILDLY WELCOMED. Received with Great Enthusinsm by People and Legislature of Quebec. Mr. O'Brien recetved almost a triumph on his arrival in Quebec yesterday. It seemed asif the Whole city had turned out to welcome him, The committee escorted Mr. O’Brien to the local Parlls- ment House, where he was introduced to many of the members. Mr. O'Brien expressed exceeding delight at the way in which he was recetved on entering the Pa-liament House, At the time a motion of want of confidence in the government tm relation to the federation act was being debated. All of the members, French, English and Irish alike, crowded around the editor, conversing With him eagerly and shaking him warmly by the 3 Marchand, of the legislative assembly, and “De La Bruyere, of the legisiative councl, Incat of botn houses, and expressed warm sy pac ment of 01 warm thy for Mr. OBrien,” MAKING IT WARM FOR LANSDOWNE. At night Mr. O'Brien spoke in the Academy of Music to @ crowded and enthustastic audience. What was most significant at the meeting, and what Mr. O'Brien remarked upon in an espectal way, Were the letters from Prime Minister Mercier, the ‘tory ex-solicitor-general; EJ. Fiynn and James McShane, commissioners of agriculture and public works, expressing sympathy tor Ireland and for the especial object of Mr. O'Brien's visit. Jeremiah Gallagher, president of tne local dranch of the National League, occupied the chair, and spoke severely of the governor-general in his opening address, When Mr. O'Brien's turn came to speak, a scene of enthusiasm even greater than that at Montreal greeted him, Mr. O’Brien said be had to express his acknowledgements, not merely to his friends, but to his opponents, for the cour- tesy and fair play he had recelved upto the present time. The irish people had not sought this quarrel with Lord Lansdowne, He had hiw- self forced It by making himself te champton and the standard-bearer of the worst and most in- human class of rack-renters in Ireland. [Misses] “The Montreal Herald of to-day,” he-continued, “took up the position, with which’ f do not for oné moment quarrel, that the Canadian people would not take, on the Statement of others, the assertion that Lord Lansdowne was as blatk as he was painted until the other side was beard from. I invite and challenge Lord Lansdowne to answer or dispute a singie fact which the Herald says should not be accepted Until he has bad an oppor~ tunity of doing this, Loni Lansdowne need not seriously sheiter himself under the plea that his oficial position prevented him from defending himself. "In @ free country like this the press is ‘88 open to him as to me, and, as a matter of fact, Lansdowne has already very significantly availed himself of the ‘ordinary channels of newspaper defense. He has, on iuore than one occasion, through interviews, done Lis utmost to prejudice the Canadian people with reference to my Visit, and he cannot now pretend | $0 to wrap himself up in majesty as to decline to defend himself against an indictinent which, if un- answered, Will Dring upon hun the reprobation of Canadian’ public opinion, If I be wrong in invit Ing publtc condemnation of the Luggacurran evic~ tons, then the members of the Canadian Parliae ment were wrong in presenting Tesolutions de- nouncing the infamous landlords and the coercive ‘system in Ireland. The days were gone by wien we heard any talk of the divine right of kings, and 101s a little too late in the day in this free conti Rent of America to atiempt to set up any divine right of a governor-general to commit injustice and w.ong, and to ravage the homes of a whole peaceable and cruelly rack-rented tenantry. O'BRIEN REFUSED A HALL AT TORONTO. The Toronto city council Thursday afternoon decided to refuse to allow St. Andrew's Hall to be used for Mr. Win. O'Brien's lecture, and to refund the fee paid.
