7he Picayune says: Tho trouble has
been brewing for some tims among the
Knights Of Labor, which found vent
to-day in this Organization formally !
declaring another boycott against the
Mallory Steamship Line. ::Tho grounds
Of action are based on the contract |
entered into by the citizens committee
and the committee. Of the Knights of |
Labor selected in November last to
arbitrats tho then existing difficulty,
growing out Of the strike of the labor
ers on the Mallory wharf and the em-
ploynent Of colored labor.
The award of this committee sets
forth that ain the employment of labor
there should be no discrimination
against any one on account of race,
color or organization, as is maintained
BY the Knights of Labor and recog>
nized by Capt. Sawyer, of the Mallory
Line, in his communication of Nov
IL, 1885; and that, in consideration
of the fact that the strike originated in
consequence of mutual misunderstand
ing, it is requested that Capt. J. N.
Sawyer, whenever he needs labor in
addition to the number cf men on the
rolls this day, that he give the pre-
ference to the men who were at work
on the wharf at the time of the strike"
The Knights claim that this has
been violated by Capt. Sawyer employ
ing men outside of their organization.
Capt. Sawyer to the contrary says that
he has faithfully abided by the terms
of arbitration, as he understood them,
Notwithstanding the Knights had no
original cause of grievance. Since the
arbitration had been decided upon the
Mallory Line'had made no discrimina'
ton against any class Of labor, and If
they had not employed Knights OF
Labor it was because no vacancies had
occurred upon the New York wharf
and consequently no opportunity was
afforded for employing any other labor
than that already employed. N
1t is learned, however, that strong
effort will be made to resist the boy
colt. A combination has been entered
into extending from the Northern
Lakes to thaGulf, to reserve 10 Them
selves the right to control their own
business to their Interests. A tour OF
/. the business houses reveals that the
boycott will have no effect on them.
Their financial interests lie in shipping
via the Mallory Line, and they do not
believe that retailer will sacrifice his
credit and sever business connections
Of long standing just because the goods
were brought here on Mallory
steamer.
In anticipation of just some such
arrangement it is said that the knights
of Labor will not handle railroad
freight for the Mallory Line. If
freights should get to Galveston conA
signed to other parties to be recon-
signed to the Mallory Line, the cars
will not be hauled to the wharf. An
attempt to compel such service Under
penalty of discharge, it is further SAID,
would lead to a strike.
