acres of land, portion OF the grant Of st. Paul

issued what was known the special preferred
stock or land stock, giving to each holder of
common stock a share OF special for each share
OF common. The state in its argument held
that the disposition OF the lands in the above
manner had the effect of q direct sale and con-
veyance to the stockholders, and that therefore
the lands were taxable. Representatives OF the
road have always claimed the agreement was
mace In the nature OF a mortgage given TO Sc
cure Indebtedness from the corporation to the
stockholders, for the road has claimed that
when IL issued this stock and gave out the land

THE KNIGHTS OF LABOR.
Discussing the Strike Question.

HAMILTON, ONT, October S.-The knights Of
Labor, at their session yesterday afternoon
discussed the important question of RELOCATING
the power to deal with strikes and other great
questions from the general assembly to state
or provincial assemblies. The question opens
up vast possibilities, and the Knights have been
very careful to take every precaution to avoid
a conflict OF authority between the proposed
slate assemblies. No definite action has yet
done yet In regard TO the lockout on the
Wabash lines, which has now existed seven
teen weeks, but the subject will soon come up
again. Various committees reported yester-
day. Last night the local assembly gave a
social in honor of the visiting delegates, AT
which Grand Master Workman Powderly and
Messrs. Litchman Barrie, F0gg and TreveIlick
made addresses. The visiting delegates express
themselves as delighted with the treatment &C
corded them by their Hamilton brethren.
