As Mr.. Connolly arrived yesterday,
the entire executive board is here, and
Master Workmon Farmer is expected
tomorrow. The board held a pro.
longed secret session this evening, but
what matters were under consideration
cannot be learned. Even the members
of the local Mallory boycott committee
of the Knights of Labor profess ignor-
ancs as TO the cause of the executive
board meeting at the present time.
Prominent local knights of Labor de-
clare that the board was not invited
to assemble by the local Knights of
Labor, and hence there is good deal
of mystery over their presence. There
is no doubt but that the meeting has
reference to the Mallory boycott, and
it Is intimated in local circles that
means looking to final settlement of
the Mallory. qAstion are being
discussed,

lery, commanded by Captain Wa ers,
gave an exhibition of target firing on
the beach near the Beach hotel. They
used Bauman fuse shells, firing at q
target, consisting oflarge barrels with
flag attached, anchored some l 200
yards out in the GUT Owing to the
fact that the target had been carried
out by current some considerable
distance beyond. its original
location, the shells seemed to
explode fifty yards or more before
reaching the target but the alignment
of firing was excellent. Large crowd
gathered on the beach to witness the
practice of detachment of artillery.
Light guards, commanded by Captain
Fuller did sentry duty during
the firing. Tonight the volunteer
firemen are giving grand bal at the
rink, which was lar.e'y attended.

public sympathy that workmen where
ever they had any grievances or
wrongs, joined together and made ap-
plications to form assemblies of
Knights of Labor this was
so general that the order
had increased a great deal more in
the month of February last than it
had in eight years; as an additional
reason he alleged the universal svs-
tenn of watering railroad stock, which
made it necessary for railroad mall
ayers to put down the rates of labor as
as much as possible.
Mr.. Grain asked, "whtt remedy he
could he suggest for y"
Witness repliea, mat the remedy
was to enforce the law; the law of
every state required that dollar for
dollar should be paid for railroad
stock, but that provision of the law
was evaded by railroad maua-
gers forming themselves into con-
struction companies, like the Credit
Mobilier and issuing to themselves
$40 of stock for every $40 Of work"
The Chairman-"And your theory
is that exactions made upon men en
ployed ON the road. were caused by
attempts to enable the railtoad COM
pany to pay dividends on watered
stock?"
Wilness--"That is the theory, and
there is great irritation about it all
over the country"
Mr.. Crain-''Do YOU not think lit
has so struck me) that Gouli himself
was very fairly disposed toward your
organization?"
Witness-"That has been my
full impression from what saw of
him; my impression was that he
wanted TO be far; that he intended 10
be fair. II has always seemed to, me
that Hoxie was on high horse from
which he was unwilling to come
down, and that when Gould
found him rebelious in not
carrying out arbitration he
ought to have issued positive
orders to that effect, or positively had
Hoxie to resign. But he turned
round and split hairs with the COM
mittee; he had agreed to arbitrate
everything past and future, bu; he
would not take this special arbitra-
ton out of Hoxie's hands"
Mr.. Crain-"You mean that Gould
permitted himself to be controlled by
Hoxie. ..
Witness-That is the way it has sp-
peared TO me; still l cannot under
stand that letter of instructions refer
red to by Hoxie."
Mr.. Crain-"With the exception of
that circumstances which seem sus-
picious, your impression is that Hox-
lie is the responsible par y for u con-
tinuance of the strike"
Witness" Yes, sir; l never met
him personally, but from talking
with those who have met him, am
strongly inclined to that opinion"
Mr.. Buchanan" A statement has
been published in newspapers to the
effect that you and Gould were work
Ing this matter together fot the pur-
pose of its effect upon the stock mar
ket. do not wish to humiliate or
wrongly ask you if it be true. but
simply mention the fact so ss 10 al
low you to make any explanation you
DESIRE"
Witness never saw any state
ment to that effect: never bad any
acquaintance with Gould; / met him
in connection with this matter; /
never bought or sold share of stock
on margin; there is not word of pos
sible truth in the suggestion.

Another Postal Fraud.

New York, April PR. Dunning,
the agent or proprietor, or the man
ager of the Drake Manufacturing
company and the State Manufactur-
ing company Gt is difficult to learn
what his precise relationship to them
is), which purports to have manufac-
tories in Providence, r. l., was ar
rested today by postal officials, ac-
cused of defrauding the mails. The
methods employed, as alleged before
the United States commissioner, were
various. The company,it was stated,
sent out catalogues to remote points
offering various goods at fabulously
low prices. 1t is charged that of
the number of stamps on letters re-
ceived in response to the catalogues,
many were washed" Others were
posted-that is the unmarked part of
one stamp was made to flt the un-
marked part of another stamp. Dun
ming was held in 81 900.

Their Real Grievances.

PHILADELPHIA, April 21.-At the
convention of Pennsylvania iron
workers in this city today, Frederick
Turner, grand secretary and treasurer
of the Knights of Labor, appealed to
the Knights for aid in behalf of the
strikers on the Gould system of rail
roads. Mr.. Turner said "The stu
alton in the southwest has never
been properly made known to the
people of this country. The strike
did not originate in the dis
charge Of man named Hall
alone by any means. That was
merely the last straw which broke
the camel's back" The most serious
difficulty of which they complained
10 Mr.. Hoxie, was that they were OBJ
l;ged to work twenty-four hours some
times for nine hours pay. Another
of their grievances was, that instead
of reducing the free, the hours Of la
Dor should be reduced. The mistake
was made in not striking then instead
of waiting until Hall was discharged.
II they had struck then, Gould would
never have had the opportunity of
saying to the world that all the as
semblies of the Knights OF Labor
struck because of the discharge of one
man. They certainly made a mis-.
take then, but they had borne their
grievances till they could bear them
no longer. This fact will no doubt
cause the American people TO realize
that this attack was purposely planed
to destroy organized labor, and while
it is u direct thrust at the Knights of
Labor we feel perfectly satisfied that
it is also blow aimed at all labor Or
ganizations. Just as soon as this or
ganization shall be 'downeJ, all
Others will be 'downed slso."

REVIEW.

new YORK, December 20.-The large with
drawals of bullion from the Bank OF Eng
land during the past fortnight seems 10 have
created considerable apprehension in Lon
don. and has stopped all demand for our Sc
curities The fact that il has occurred SO very
near the close of the year, when every one is
desirous 10 settle up, has made the pinch In
money all the more extensively felt, and We
cannot expect TO see any active renewal OF
speculation until the new year has been well
started
The course of prices late in the day was de-
cidedlv weaker and it would seem as II there
were still some weak spots TO be eradicated
before any substantial recovery sets in. The
holiday season helps the Discrimination on
the part ofgvery many TO enter into new en-
gagements. and is a considerable factor at
the moment.
Railroad earnings, however, continue very
good. and after the existing peroid Of liqui-
dation has exhausted itself they will proba-
bly, influence prices.
'rin this is accomplished, however VIC
must expect a dragging and probably lower
market
The close was weak. Average rate for
money to-day about per cent; closing at A..
