The Knights of Lnbor and the Ameri- im Federation at Odds, “There is every reason to believe that a fierce war is about to break out between the Knights of Labor and the American Federation of Labor,” said Mr. Henry B. Martin of the general executive board to- day to a Star reporter. “Meanwhile the general officers of the Knights of Labor are getting ready to place a boycott on the products of all breweries handled by members of the National Brewers’ Union. This action on the part of the general executive board is for the protection of the members of their order who are employed by the Bartholomay Brewing Company at Rochester, N. Y., which firm, it is said, is in reality boy- cotted by the American Federation ot Labor, through the National Brewery Workers’ Union, - which. is affiliated with that organization. The trouble, as report- ed to the headquarters of the Knights ot Labor here, was caused by the brewery workers employed by the Bartholomay company withdrawing from the Brewers’ Union and retaining their membership in the Knights of Labor. As soon as this ac- tion on the part of the workmen became known to the National Brewery Workers’ Union they took steps to compel the work- men to rescind the course they had taken. In this, however, they failed, and it is alleged the National Brewery Workers’ Union undertook to persuade the brewing company to force their men back into the union. While the cause of the fight is in Rochester, N. Y., there is scarcely a doubt that, the headquarters of both organiza- tions. being located in this city, Washing- ton will be made the battle ground of the forces of the opposing factions. If the boycott shall be declared, it is the inten- tion of the Knights of Labor to carry the war into every city where the product handled by the National Brewery Workers’ Union is sold, and, if no settlement of the differences is effected within the next few days, the fight ‘between the two greatest labor organizations in the world, the Knights of Labor and the American Fel- eration of Labor, will be on in real earn- est, and no doubt will be prosecuted with all the energy and influences either boi® can command.” The managers of the Workingme: Library Association determined at a mee ing held last evening to keep the room: open at night during the warm season. A meeting of Bakers’ Council was held last evening, but only routine business was transacted. — Sunday School Workers. The first of a series of meetings for the benefit of Sunday school workers, which are to continue for three weeks and are under the auspices of the Sunday School Union of the District of Columbia, was held yesterday afternoon in the First Con- gregational Church, corner of 10th and G streets northwest. Rev. IN. Earle, the well-known Sunday school worker, who has conducted similar meetings in various parts of the country, and who has heretofore attended one or more conventions here, was welcomed by a very large audience. The music, which was extremely appropriate to the vcca- sion, was rendered by the Sunday school convention male chorus, under the airec- subject was the “Life of Paul,” many of the most interesting events in whose ute he illustrated by means of a large cnart. This Earle will evening Mr. le conduct a sents at the Second Church and Tweitth Anacostie Baptist Street Methodist Episcopal Church. There will be no meeting.on Saturday evening. —_s_— His Funeral Services, Mr. Sam.

He Was the Guest of Honor at a Smoker Saturday Night. Mr. Harry P. Godwin, who will retire in a few days from the city editorship of The Evening Star, to take charge of the general advertising of the American Graphophone Company at the headquarters of the cor- poration in New York, was the guest of honor at @ smoker given Saturday night at Rauscher's by his associates $n The Star. Every department of the papér was repre- sented in the large gathering, and in the expressions of regret and esteem that were extended to Mr. Godwin the tributes were as earnest from the composing room and the business office as they were from th: editorial department, wita which he was more closely connected. During the even- ing Mr. Godwin was presented with a silver service as a testimonial of the affection ot every employe of The Evening Star, from Proprietors to press-room laborers.’ The evening was enlivened by bright speeches, amusing episodes introduced by the agency of the graphophone, and good songs, and a general good ‘ime was enjoyed. Mr. E. D. Easton, the president of the American Graphoptore Company, was present, and expressed his appreciation of Mr. Godwin in terms no less emphatic than those used by The Star men themselves. Mr. Godwin will take his departure for New York May 1. He will reside temporarily at the Hotel Waldorf. When the school year closes Mr. Godwin will remove his family to Passaic, ask Jersey, where they will permanently reside. _— Claimed the Horne. Last week Poundmaster Einstein cap- tured a stray horse on the commons north of the city, and as the owner did not call for the animal within forty-eight hours, an auction sale was arranged, and the horse was to have been sold under the hammer at 1 o'clock Saturday. A short while be- fcre 1 o'clock, however, the owner, who lives at Kensington, appeared and claimed the horse. He had to pay $4.50 for the animal. In addition to this horse ninety- eight dogs were impounded last week. Dur- ing the week seventy-nine dogs were killed, three were sold and fifteen were returned because the owners of them had their licen- ses but had failed to put the metallic tags about the necks of their canines. > — Washington etl. The organization of Washington Council, Knights of Columbia, which was effected last night, or more correctly speaking, early this morning, for the exercises con- tinued until long after Sunday had expired, served to bring to the city several hun- dred members of the order living in Baiti- more, Philadelphia, Wilmington (Del.), New York, Albany, Troy, Buffalo, Syraci Rochester, Glen’s Falls, Cohoes «N, Boston, Fall River, Brockton (Mass.), Hari- lord and New Haven (Conn.). The new council is composed of seventy- two members. The ceremonies of organiza- ton were performed in the armory of the Washington Light Infantry. The officers will be elected later.
