SATURDAY EVENING, DEC EMBER II.


4 crisis has evidently arrived in the al
fairs OF the Knights of Labor as national
orgspiZation. 1t is crisis that was fore.
seen by those VINO were familiar with the
phenomena attending the rapid and hasty
organization of large bodies OF men, what
ever the motive. 1t was suggested by BIZ.
Powderly himself, before and at the cOnven-
ton in this y,when he pointed ont the dan
gers to the order likely to result from the
vast accession OF numbers acquired G ring
the six months previous to the Cleveland
ga herring. The crisis now Imminent IL Due
to the sudden but imperfect cohesion in orc
order of a great army Of men, almost who!
~ undiscplinea, and without leaders grea,
enough to wisely direct their movements or
command obedience. Intoxicated with an
unwontcd sense Of power, the local orSanI-
cations were quick to seek opportunities Tor
the exhibition Of their strength. and.
oftimes in defiance Of the order OF their
leaders, they precpitated hundreds Of
senselcss strikes, formulated demands
inprac,icable TO grant, and were easily
seduced into poitica! schemes foreign
TO the purpose OF the organization. Their
very strength which was III numbers, has
proved ;heir greatest weakness, for it has
resulted in divided c0unse!s and rebellion,
and has imposed upon the centra! authority
financial and other burdens OF so crushing a
nature as TO threated dissolution. This is
confessed by Mr.. powderly himself in bis
recent appsa! !,r fuads. The ordinary re.
ceipts Of IT," executive @yIImittce nave
proved utterly inadequate 10 meet ,Le CRAFTS

Report on the FiIz JOhR Porter BIZ.
More Dana for tbs Ohio kiySr-Gsu,
srAl Washington News NOt0S.

WASHINGTON, D, O., Jan. 9O.-The time
Of the Senate to-day was mostly taken up
with the discussion OF the silver question,
Mr.. Morrill, denied that there had been
any failure on the part Of the Treasury
olIlCsrs to comply with the laws regarding
the application Of the money received ior
customs dues, ltWouldno be contended,
he Rald, by anybody, except perhaps the
Senator from Kentucky Deck, that az
each piece OF money was received at the
custom house 1t was to be branded and set
epaTt In 2 separate compartment. II 1t
was In the Treasury that was enough. "By
the report Of the United States Treasurer"
Mr., Morrill, continued, ut appears that
there Is somewhere in the Treasury 1867
SG0,0 900 OF standard silver dollars, which
We are atruggling TO find how and where
to safely store until by some miracle they
can find more favor in wicked world"
Mr., Beck said to stop Colnlsg silver
money in order to make silver money
more valuable was like stopping the
grinding OF wheat into flour 70 order TO
make wheat more valuable, The pur-
iose was to suspend it now and never 10
resume coinsge. The argument merely
showed that silver was good enough for
very body, but the bondholder, who was
.he only person that had In writing agreed
o take 1t. The bankers aud bondholders
II Wall street, Mr., Beck asserted, were
gambling on the misfortunes OF the peo.
lie, and should not be allowed TO strike
Town one.half@the coinage Of the world.
This was government Of the people, by
he people and for the people, and the
people would see that 1t was not turned
nto government Of bondholders by
,ondholders and for bondholders. Mr.,
Seek gave notice that In due time he
would reply to Mr.. Morrill's speech.
Mr.. Morrill, said that Mr.. Beck's reply
eminded him OF the story Of the boy, who
,ried when his mother whipped him, and
Rhen asked by his mother why he cried
10 much harder than had been his custom
IN similar occasions replied, Because
