Rumors of An Umpending Conflict With the Catholic Hierarchy. New York, March 14,—[Special Tele- ram.]—It is leaned from a very reliable rce that the labor question has been forced upon Avehbiship Corrigan in the form of a choice between action and non- action against the Knights of Laborasa secret society. It is a well known fact that all organizations involving an oath of secrecy areunder the ban of the Roman Catholic chureh, Here in the diocese of New York the enforcement of that rule has long been lax, and especially so under Cardinal y and dwring the reign of Pope Cardinal McCloskey, as an Irish- man, was in sympathy with his countrymen, and indisposed to be rigorous with them as to their membership in secret societies. The present Pope Leo has a firmer policy in an- tagonism to secret societi The under- standing in high Cathiolic_eireles here is that in refusing to give New York the suc to McClosky m the cardinalate, and es ly now in deciding to go to C: for a second cardinal in Ame he expresses a rebuke for the failure to effectually discountenance secret ord. among Irishmen here. Archbishop Corrig ceeived within a month an official let from Rome, among the contents of which his scrctary admits was a passage bearing on the power of the church to break up the Knighits of Labor was imperative is indicated by the fact that simultaneously the arch- bishop of Quebec issued s denunciation of the Knights, and forbade all Catholics to re- main members, This action significent. Someof the attaches of Archbishop Cori- gan’s ofticial establishment go so far as to ay he lost a cardinalate through his leniency 1 this respect. Ihe doings of the Knights Labor are profoundly secret until they show publicly for themselves, and it has proved impossible to determine whether the order has received any direet communication from Archbishop Corrigan, but it is certain that individual members very numerously have been spoken to by their pastors on the subject through the confessional, Your correspondent has learned, however, that a member of the order has written to the headquarters of the knights, asking if a disclosure of Knights of Labor secrcts to a confessor who was bound by holy vows to maintain confidence inviolate would be construed as disregard of his oath, The reply came from Grand Master Powderly and'its purport was that the point would probably be settled within ten days. Since then several letters have passed between the Archepiscopal palace and Philadelphia, and the sunposition is that Powderly and the archbishop are in correspondence, The out- come of the matter is anxiously awaited by Catholicmembers of the order. Should the church firmly discountenance them it would prove a serious matte s S NEWS OF THE STATE.

A 8 lect Party of New York Sports Witness the Prettiest Light Weight Boutin the Annals of the Prize Ring. Dempsey Defeats La Blanche. New Yok, March 14.—What those who witnessed the encounter designate as the greatest middle weight fight on record was fought at 7 o'clock this morning at Rye Beach, just on the border line between New York and Connecticnt. The contestants were George La Blanche of Boston and Jack Dempsey of New York, The stakes were 000 a side and about €3,000 of a purse made up by certain notsrle gentlemen of this city ck Dempsey was the winner, thirteen separate younds being bitterly cons tested, and it is declared that a better and more manfully fought battle was never wit- nessed. ‘There were about forty porsons present, including twenty-cight members of the New York Racquet e'ub. The chiet difficulty experienced by the managers of this fight was to hoodwink those who were watching for it. and the toughs who were bent on being present to mar the fairness of the operation, In this they sue- ceeded. In the first place the men were put on board a large propeller, which proceeded far up North river and then took the remain- der of the guests on board and stanmed for the battle ground about twenty-five wiles away, which was reached m good season, “Ihe two principals slept fora few hours, and the gentlemen amused themselves as hest they could on board the steamer. The ring was pitehed properly, and those present stood around it. The two gladiators were stripped and rubbed down before the spectators, and the “Marine,” as La Blanche is called, puton a pair of blue trunks and dark fighting shoes. His stockings, accord- ing to his own custom, were rolled down, leaving his ealves bare. Jack Dempsey wore his dark hose and white gaiters, A better looking man than the “Marine” it would be hard to tind. He was not quite as tall as Jack Dempsey, but he weighed a few pounds more. e turned the beam at 1453 pounds. Dempsey looked atrifle less bulky and was equally as calm, Dempsey’s weight was 14414 pound John O'Neil was chosen referee, and two well-dressed swells were the time keepers. Oncof the best known members of an east- ern_athletic{elub made the following brief speceh to themen: “You will fight accord- ing to the Marquis of Queensbury’s rules, with tight gloves, You will break at the call of the referce, make no noise and go to your corners, When cither of you knocks™ the other down, wait until the referee de- cldes whether the fall an is done up or not.
