If the knights of Labor are fault they will
not oe screened. We are anxious, hOwev-
er, To have congressional committee in
vestigate the strike first and ascertain the
, causes leading to il, and then make them
public without delay.
Mr.. Gould acts or rather talks like "a
man who fears he will be injured. Ii he
should be punished legally for unlawful
acts OF his that would not be unjustly in
iuring him. II would merely be uphold
ing the law. III any of our men are amen
able let them also suffer-"
Mr.. POwderly was called to Chicago late
tonight on important business connected
with the Knights of Labor, but at 1l:30
o'clock had not responded to the call and
was still here.
In the interview noted Mr.. Powderly
further said he would not reply to Mr..
GOuld's letter. He would meet him in court
when he brings his suits. He denied the
statement of Gould that everything agreed
to was carried out. He claimed that Vice
President HOxie refused to comply with
Mr.. Gould's instructions, and would
not meet committee of strik-
ers rOr would he meet
committee of the men who were at work
for the company. No boycott has been
raised against Mr.. Gould or his roads. Our
general executive committee have not con-
sidered the matter at all and if assemblies
are passing resolutions to boy
colt they are acting without
authority from the board. This
matter is now in the hands of the general
executive board and nothing must be done
without their consent, so far as the Knights
OF Labor are concerned.
In such exciting times as these it does
not take long to find lawless characters to
commit acts of violence and to resort TO
any incendiary methods, but We will not
countenance such a thing nor anything
likely TO lead to violence

Powderly's Latest Circular.

Philadelphia, April l5.-General Master
Workman PoWderly, OF the knights of
Labor, to-day addressed the following cir
cular Ia members OF the order:
Noble O,cier Of The knights Of Labo,. Of liner
ioc.
You have all read OF the great strike on
the Gould lines of railways in the south
west It's his DRY Is being written day by
day. Ii makes but little difference now
whether :he men of the southwest acted
wisely or not. Let us pass that part OF the
affair over, for it, too, has passed into his
tory. The general executive board
of the order attempted to
settle tine trouble and restore harmony,
and agreements were made with them by
Jay Gould, Esq, but when the board
reached ST. Louis Mr.. Hoxie would not
tr at with them. Not that alone, but he
positively refused To employ Knights of
Labor, whether they had been active in
the strike or not. Ii now becomes the
part Of every man and woman in the or
der To- take up the fight of the men of south
west and assist them To the full extent
OF their means. They have been idle for
nearly two months. They have had a
most trying Ordeal TO go through and are
IN need OF funds. IL requires no elOquence
or rhetoric to plead the case of the suffering
people. They require aid, and it becomes
our duty To extend aid as quickly as posi-
bic for us ~ do SO. Send every dollar you
can spare to the general secretary and
treasurer, who will forward them to
81. Louis for distribution. Rem ember the
men out there do not ask for charity
'rhax. do .,oG NJ oil l. =
tive board that makes the appeal on their
behalf. He who gives quickly gives doubly.
Act at once. Another appeal may be sent
to you, and We ask you to prepare for it at
once. We must be Judged by our actions
in this matter. Don't pass resolutions con-
demning capital, for we are not fighting
capital. Don't antagOnize the contest We
have before us. Let Us make friend of every
man who has suffered through monopoly
This battle against The man who represents
monopoly must be brought out manfully
Watch his actions everywhere. Keep an
eve on the dOings of congress Urge the
committee to do Its duty fearlessly
Strengthen their hands. Give them every
aid. In conclusion, let us again ask that
YOU send nj once every dollar that YOU can
spare to uphold men who are now out
along the lines OF the southwest system of
GOuld's railway. Do not delay, and at the
same time make ready to bring
the whole 10 bear upon the man
who makes railways, boards for
tunes and lives in his greed for gold.
Let Us determine to have it go into history
that the men of 1886 struck as grand a
blow for liberty Us the men of I775. The
men of 1916 broke the power of monarchy
and dethroned the king. The power which
they wrested from the hands
OF king was not SO
great as that which Is now held by one
man, who, through the corrupt use of
money, has brought manufacturer and
workman To ruin. The power of the king
has passed away. The power of wealth is
passing away, and it must now be deter
mined whether man shall rule or whether
wealth shall rule.

made 10 be obeyed or not, aud If they were
not so framed then the people must make
laws that will be Obeyed. No an,whether
lac be rich, or whether he be the poorest OF
the poor, shall in future shirk the :espOn-
sibility of his acts and shield himself from
the courts. 1t was to see that the laws
were obeyed that the order of the Knights
of Labor was founded, and if the day has
come to make the trial 50 let it be.
do not write this letter To you either I'm
the spirit of rage Or revenge. For you,
personally, | have no dislike. | believe
that if allowed TO follow your own i'm
pulses in this matter you would have had
the strike ended ere this. Those who adj
wise you d. not mingle with the people.
You have been warned that your life is in
danger. Pay no attention ~ such talk; no
man who has the interests of his country
at heart would harm hair OF your head !,
but the system which reaches out on all
sides, gathering in the millions of dollars
of treasure and taking them out of the
legitimate channels of trade and commerce
must die, and the men whose money is in
vested in the enterprises which
STOCK GAMBLING HAS THRoTTLED
must make common cause with those who
have been denied the right TO earn enough
TO provide the merest necessities of life for
home and family.
When | say to you that we will meet in
the courts, do not speak rashly or ill-ad-
visedly. | have taken council from the
best legal minds of the United States. We
are prepared TO face You before the courts
and now await your action in the matter.
This is not threat. | play no game Of
bluff or chance. ! speak for 100000 or
ganized men who are ready To pay out the
las; farthing in order that justice may pre-
vail
You have il in your power TO make
friends of these men by acting the part OF
the man, by taking this matter into your
hands. Will YOU do Sd and end this strife
in the interest OF humanity and our COM
mon country?
1t Is your duty To
BRUSH ASIDE EVERY OBSTACLE,
asser; your authority and take this matter
in your own hands, settle every grievance,
restore every man To his place, except
those who have been engaged in the de-
struction OF property or broken the laws.
Will YOU do this ? You can then make
rules and agreements with your men which
Will forever preclude the possibility OF an
other such disastrous conflict as this one
has proved itself to be-.
! remain very truly yours,

THE SITUATION AT MARSHALL.
The Strike at Kansas CITY.

Kansas City, April 15.-Fifteen or twen-
" Missouri Pacific switchmen, who have
been out since the strike begun and failed
to return to work when the switchmen's
general strike was ordered off by Chief
Manager, applied to the company for rein
statement this evening. This they were
refused, as their places have been filled by
new men.
The company is now working three
switch engines at night in their yards, but
no night freights are sent out.
A striker was arrested to-day for using
abusive language toward an employe in
the yards.

Martin Irons Reports.

1t. Louis, April l5.-Martin Irons,
chairman of the joint executive commit
tee, returned from the south to-day. He
says from the strikers standpoint the situ-
alton OF affairs all along the line is very
encouraging.
A dispatch from Pacific Mo-, states that
the Missouri Pacific shops whistle blew
this morning for the first time in five
weeks. Twenty-Five men are at work in
the shops and yards. Among them are a
few of those who struck.
THE SITUATION AT MARSHALL
\ dispatch from Marshall, Tex, states
that the United States Commissioner is
taking testimony at that place in regard to
the strike and the cause OF the discharge of
}. c. Hall. The dispatch also states that
the striks at that point is evidently weak
ening. Skilled labor ismuch needed at the
shops there, especially in the locomotive
repair department, where thirty-eight loco
motives are awaiting repairs. Several more
of the old skilled wOrkmen have returned

No such committee OF individual en-
ploye has, 80 far as known to me, ever made
any such application.
In this connection, il will be remem-
bered that they lett not because of any
complaint whatever of this company's
treatment OF themselves, but only because
of this company'S refusal Ia comply with
their demand that this company refuse to
do what the law requires In the way of in
terchange of business with another COM
pany with which some OF youI order had a
quarrel. In the meantime this company
has, of necessity, gone I'm to extend en-

violence attendant upon the recent action
of your order, can employ.
Mr.. Hoxie advises me that every such
person applying to be received back has
been employed, unless believed to have
taken part in recent acts of violence. This
company still stands ready to make good,
in the fullest sense, its agreement as ex-
pressly set forth. In the face of all this
