A SECRET CIRCULAR

From Mr.. Powderly Which Will Please the
Conservatives and Anger the Radicals.
CHICAGO, December 2l.-An important
secret circular has been received by dis
trict assemblies 81 and 81 X. OF L., of this
city, from Master Workman Powderly,
concerning the factional quarrels which
have existed in the organizations for some
time. The circular touches upon several
matters, but the most import
ant are the political questions
and the action of the Knights of Labor in
reference TO the condemned Anarchists.
When the order is promulgated, it is
claimed that the conservative element of
the organization will be pleased with Mr..
Powderly's commands, while they will
greatly displeaSe the radical wing. Mr..
Powderly has ordered the Master Work
man of District Assemblies 81 and 81 not
to allow any money to be col
lected for the condemned Anarch-
lists, and instructs that if any
funds have heretofore been collected such
monies TO be returned to assemblies and
persons who contributed the same. The
Grand Master Workman's action, it is con-
tended, settles forever the question of the
relation of the Knights OF Labor and the
condemned anarchists. 1t also explains
why in the joint meeting Of these district
assemblies, ON last Sunday, that the sym
pathy matter was not brought up, when
the meeting was for that special purpose.

4 Fraudulent Failure.

New YORK, December 2l.-In the
special term Of the Supreme Court to-day,
Judge Van Brunt gave decision that the
assignment of the firm of Kessuth Warx
& Co., the well known Maiden Lane jew
elers, and diamond dealers, made in Sep
tember 1855, was null and void. He de-
clared it to be the consummation of
scheme to defraud their creditors who were
chiefly foreigners and ordered it to be set
aside on these grounds. The firm was
composed of three brothers, Kessuth and
Adolphus and Jacob Warx. The firm
failed in that month for over a million
dollars. The failure created considerable
excitement both here and abroad in trade.

He Must and VIII Obey the Summons to
Rome.
NEW YORK, December 21.-The Rev.
DR.. McGlynn had not returned to the pas
toral residence yesterday from his trip out
of town. One of the Pensioners of st.
Stephens said yesterday that DR.. McGlynn
had not gone into retreat in an ecclesi-
astical sense of the word but in the ordi-
nary meaning of the word he had. He had
retreated from the pastoral residence. A
Priest who has long known DR.. McGlynn
intimately, said last evening: The Rev.
DR.. McGlynn has not celebrated mass
since he was suspended from his
functions here by q summons
to Rome. All statements that he said
mass since that time are mistakes. The
misstatement is probably caused by mis-
taking Father Laughron for Father Nc
Glynn. Neither has DR.. McGlynn been
within the altar rail during services. The
summons to Rome of itself suspended DR..
McGlynn, and he will say no mass, high
or low, until he goes to Rome. He will
90 to Rome like good priest that he is,
and he will submit to the decision there
handed down. He will arrange his af-
fairs in the parish as soon as he can, but
he must 60, for even if Archbishop Corri-
gan wished to let him celebrate mass, per-
mission could not be given.

BERGH STOPS THE FUN.
Imitators of "Wales" Import Wild Hogs
for Sticking Matinee.

Imitators of "Wales" Import Wild Hogs
for a Pig-Sticking Matinee.
NEW YORK, December 2l.-The dudes
and imitators of Wales have received 4
severe setback. In order to be thorough
ly English they have fitted up Tuxedo
Pa:k in a style that would warm the
cookies of Albert Edwards heart. Their
latest "fad," perhaps more German than
English, was the importation of a score or
so of wild boars, which were to be placed
in the park to afford the luxury of pig
sticking" which, although little more
dangerous than fox hunting, is considered
the proper caper. The boars arrived
yesterday, and the would-be aristocrats
were in high glee, but Henry Bergh
comes out in a cold-blooded way this after
noon, and declares emphatically that no
"pig sticking" will be allowed, unless it
is done in the improved style, Ia Arm
our. This is a terrible blow. Imagine a
full-fedged New York imitatOr Of the
lOrdly Briton taking lessons in the art of
killing hogs at the Chicago stock-yards. 1t
is Il horrible thought. These are the facts
in the case: The dozen wild German
boars and sows, which arrived here yes
terday on the steamer Werra, will never
fulfill the purpose ior which they were
brought to this country. When Henry
Bergh read this mornings papers
and learned how the pigs
were TO be treated, he sent for the Superin-
tendent of the Society for the Prevention
of Cruelty to Animals, and sent him to
Mr. Herman Reiahellreiche, to whom the
animals are consigned, with the word that
any killing of hogs with either spear or
sword would not be allowed. Mr.. Bergh
said that the sport would be stopped in
New York, and he would at once request
the societies in New Jersey to interfere
also. If the people ut Tuxedo Park want
to kill any hogs, they will he obliged to
use the latest humane methods adopted by
the big packing houses out West. Mr..
Bergh says that he will take such action that
the wild boars will be allowed to raise
families to the third and fourth generations
without fear of violent death.
