New YORK, May 16.-A special dispatch from

from which the following extracts are taken:

the official organ of the Knights of Labor. con-
tains an article relating to a general scale OF
prices for cigar-making adopted by the executive
board OF the Knights of Labor. In looking over
the scale OF prices we notice that the Knights OF
Labor are satisfied to work from 20 to 80 per
cent below the current prices enforced by the local
unions under the jurisdiction of the International
U mon. The attempt to cut down the wages Of
the cigar makers, under cover of labor reform,
we feel constrained to denounce as piece of
scab business of the lowest order. We
do not consider it out of place to give the names
and occupations of the men who have assumed
control over the cigar trade. so that we may con-
vince the cigar makers of the arrogance of these
interlopers, who have not the slightest knowl

proves that there is something rotten in the
management of the organization known the

Man, show yourself of noble soul
While here you are a dweller.
Don't let your wife bring up the coal
And kindling from the cellar.
But do the work yourself; reflect
You swore to love her ever,
Be good to her and her respect
And love will leave you never.
