Organized Labor.
IT'S rIrrsBuRG PARADE.

PlTrsBURG, June 1.-THE labor de-
mons.ration of to-day, though not as
successful in point of numbers rs it
would have been if the weather had
been propitious, was still large enough
to satisfy those who admire process
sion more on account of it's numerical
display than for its ornamental fes-
tpres, and was fully up to expectations,
The number of men in line is variously
estimated at from twenty to thirty
thousand 1t consisted of five Divisions
comprised in which were representa-
tives of all the local assemblies of
Knights Of Labor, about thirty lodges
of the Amalgamated Association of
Iron apd Steel workers, besides various
trades unions and other labor organj-
cations. The place Of honor, on the
right OF the line, was held by the print
ers' assembly, 1880 X. of L., this body
being special escort to the chief
marshal, b. II. Jones and staff.
Prominent among tne latter
being Mr.. Thomas Armstrong,
candidate for governor of pennsylva-

compartment, and this fact, no doubt,
prevented many from joining in who
had previously determined To march.
The streets of both Pittsburg and Ale
gheny were crowded with spectators
along the route of the procession, n
large proportion OF the gentler sex be-
ing out to encourage the marchers
with their presence. Many OF the
large warehouses were closed during
afternoon, and the city being profusely
dec orated with flags and notices, pre-
scented gala appearance quite in keep
ing with that of the parade, which was
rs gay rs flags, transpariencies and
boquets could make IL. Many pertin-
ent notices were displayed by the
various organizations in line, among
which the following were particularly
noticeable principles Of X. and of
l.. 1st Concentration, I'd Arbitration,
3D. Cooperation" Labor is the creator
of all capital" "Labor is noble and
holy" Labor is the source Of all
wealth, ""Labor pays all taxes "EuIal
rights to labor and capital" We ask the
repeal of the following laws: econ
Ispiracy to contract convict labor"
" tramp laws" Competence obtained
by honest labor is "A blessing" Hold
the fort for we are coming, Ohio. +"
"The noblest work of God is "A work
iEg man." mo disunion in our ranks"
The demonstration was particularly
noticeable for its orderly character,
and the excellent quality of marching.
Very little drunkenness has been seen
on the streets all day, notwithstanding
a large number Of strangers are in the
city from all points within radius of
100 miles of PIttsburg.
Tonight everything is rs quiet on
the streets ~ usual, and the pubic
have no unpleasant reminders of to-
days demonstration, in the shape Of a
large corps of drunken prisoners.

American "Suspec.sv 1T ireland.

WASHINGTON, March 15.-The department
of stats sent the committee on foreign af-
fairs yesterday copies of the Geographic CORE
spondence between the department and lega-
ton at London respecting the Imprisonment
of Americans in Ireland under the coercion
act. The cases of insolvency and Hart are es-
pecially alluded to. In his negotiations re-
garding the former, Lowell failed to obtain
from the British government any information
beyond that contained in the warranG of arrest
but was assured by Lord Granville McSweeney's
actions brought him under the coercion act and
he could not be released. Harris reputation
is bad and he will not promise to behave bet
ter if set at liberty. Lowell does not believe
either of the two is more innocent than a
majority of persons arrested. In answer to
department instructions to waive for The pres
emit all discussion of the justifableness OF
these arbitrary imprisonments, but to press
for an early trial of the various American,

Mr.. Money.--As I was proceeding to say

again refused. then holding the floor, not
interjecting myself into any mans speech,
desired to state that the people from our Sec
ton had not been heard. just before that a
Republican member (alluding to Marsh,
of nllnois) spoke out of order,
and in voice so loud it
seemed hoarse, and brandished his fist and
nobody spoke of reprimanding him. There Is
no rule that permits member of the house to
be reprimanded except by order Of the house
and no speaker has the right to arrogate to
himself and usurp the powers Of the house.
Now take that down If you wish. (Applause
on Democratic side.) As far as am con-
cerned personally, simply wish to show the
people represent that was incapable Of SUBJ
hitting to thing of this sort without
protesting against it. Applause on the Dem.

his own motion to reprimand or punish a
member, he has usurped functions and powers
reserved to the house itself.
After some further sparring between Nc
Lane, Hiscock and the speaker, the matter was
dropped and the house adjourned.

New YORK, March 15.-Among the current
rumors on the street to-day is one to the eff
feet that the Minneapolis & st. Louis railroad
is about to pass into the hands of the Chicago
g. Rock Island road, and as preliminary to
the transfer. important changes IN its direc-
tory and executive officer will soon be made.
COMMENTS.
Tit is very evident that the Rock Island road
designs to have line of its own at no distant
day, into st. Paul and Minneapolis. The Rock
Island stockholders are already large owners
in the Minneapolis & st. Louis andare bring
ing in freight by that line at present. 1t is
we'll known the Rock Island people were
recently negotiating to absorb the St. Paul &
Omaha but as that seems to be abandoned or
at least held in allegiance, it gives decided color
to the New York telegram above that they are
seeking to accomplish the same end by absorb
ing the MINNEAPOLIS & st. Louis.-ED.
