ANXIOUS FOR THE OUTCOME.
knights of Labor Eager for Gould
TO Begin His Suifs

SCRANTON, Pa, April 15.-In an inter-
view this afternoon Mr.. Powderly, when
asked what he thought of Mr.. Gould's re-
ply to his manifesto, said:
have not had much time to think of if for
this has been an unusually busy day with
me. / don't think, however, that Mr. Gould
has answered my letter. His reply is a
quibble and an evasion and he fairly slops
over on some points. All there is in his
communication has been said before. He
evidently was TO pose before the country in
the light of martyr, but the Knights of
Labor don't propose to honor him with
martyrdom. We have invited him to carry
his threats of prosecution into the courts
and we are ready to meet him there. He an
pounced sometime ago his intention
90 commence a series of prosecu-
tions against us and we want him
TO proceed at once. We shall not be
swayed from our course by anthing he NAV
try to do. Just as soon as possible we shall
appoint a committee of the order to iuyesti-
gate the Southwestern trouble from root to
branch, all along the line from st. Louis to
the Mexican border. The result of this in
Vestigation Will be published to the world and
if the Knights of Labor who struck are ar
fault, they will not be screened. We are
anxious, however, to have a congressional
committee investigate the strike first, ascer-
tain the cause leading TO it, then make them
public without delay. Mr. Gould acts like. or
rather talks like a man who fears that he will
be injured. Ii he should be punished legally
for unlawful acts of his, that would not be
uniustly iniuring him. 1t would merely
be upholding the law. If any of our men are
amenable, let them also suffer.
Mr.. Powderly was called to Chicago late
tonight Oh important business connected
with the Knights of Labor, but at 11:SO
o'clock had not responded to the call and
was still here.

WASHINGTON, April 15.-Several Nor
mon women from Utah are here to urge
congress to modify the Edmunds' law in re-
lation TO Utah, which they say Is very
oppressive to their people. They talk
frankly of their polygamous experiences,
and insist that they are happy in it.
'Mormons believe that man can love
more than one woman, just as a mothers
love is not confined TO one child" said
Mrs. Richards of the number. my hus-
band and talked the matter all over be-
fore our marriage. We both came from
parents who lived in polygamy. but we were
the children of the first wives and no Nor
mon youth would marry girl who was not
a good woman in all that the word implies.
We were born and brought up in the church,
and when we arrived at years of response
bility, we adopted the faith as our own.
We have seen the power given the saints;
that the Lord prOspered them in temporal
things as well as in spiritual things" Mrs.
West is daughter of an apostle of the
church and AYERS that if she had a score of
children she would bring them all up to be
Iatter-Day Saints. She is enthusiastic
about the superior principles of her religion,
and says that Mormons are not living for
the present alone, but for the glory of
eternity.
Mrs. Wells. another of them, said: "There
is more liberty for women in the Mormon
church than i'm any other in the world. The
women vote. not only upon all political
questions, but upon religious tenets as we'll
We believe in pre-eXistence and a future
state of progression, and the discipline of
plural wives is a corrective TO supreme self
ishness. The great wrong congress is doing
in enforcing the Edmunds law is the break
ing up of families. the ruin Of hearts and
homes, and disgracing the women and
making their children outcasts.

A Novel Entertoinment.

At the Washington rink, Minneapolis on
Friday evening and at a matinee on Saturday,
an entertainment will be offered the public
which from the novelty Of its character is
likely to attract large audiences, especially a
large number of the little folks. The novelty
we speak of is real, live horse on roller
skates, probably the only horse in the world
who has mastered the little wheels. The
name of this equine wonder is Dolly, and her
prOpuetors have insured her against accident
for SIS, 900. Dolly, while in New York, is
credited with the feat of walking up FIVE
flights of stairs TO be photographed. She
stands on her head, walks a six-inch plank
with balancing pole in her mouth, picks
money from pail of water and manages the
tricky rollers better on four feet than most
people do on two, and from all accounts is an
attraction worth seeing.

THE HEATHEN CHINEE.
Legislation Looking TO an Inde M
nifty ON Account of Recent Riots.


WASHINGTON, April 15.-The house
committee on foreign affairs to-day con-
sidered the Morrow Chinese BILL and the
Chinese indemnity resolution, and although
no final action was reached there was a
free expression of individual sentiment upon
those subjects. The period fixed for the
restriction of Chinese in the Morrow bill
was regarded as too long by a
number of the members of the COM
mittee and there was a decided
opposition developed to that section of
the bill fOrbidding the return Of Chinese to
this country after two years absence. 1t
was held that this section is in conflict with
treaty stipulations as II would apply TO
Chinese who were in this country before
the consideration of the bill. 1t is probable
that the measure will be amended in these
respects. The indemnity resolution In its
present shape was regarded as Objectionable
as establishing a dangerous precedent, and
there is some disposition to make a cash
payment to China under the guise of return
ing an excess of the indemnity paid
by China to the United States as
a result of the outbreak of 1857. The Cali
fornia delegation urged the committee to
immedia ate action. and it is probable that al
the next meeting both measures will be
agreed upon.

Urge Open Executive Sessions.

urge open Executive sessions.
WASHINGTON, April 15.-In the senate
to-day Mr.. Logan took the floor in support
Of the movement for open executive ses-
sions, claiming that there was not now and
never had been any necessity for secret ses-
sions. he wished that all the senators who
believed in secrecy would openly state their
reasons for so doing. He urged that the
doors be opened and senatorial courtesy
give place to fair and open consideration.
The traducers of character and the condon-
ers of bad record would then both go down
before the open consideration of nomina-
tions. Referring to the Oft-times published
proceedings of the senate in executive ses-
sionMr. Logan thought that If the proceed
ings and statements so published were
not correct and if the senate would not
open its doors it was encouraging the news
papers in deceit. He thought that if the
doors were opened the speeches in execu-
tive session would be shorter, the proceed
ings more orderly and the debates OF
more elevated character. As TO the public
ity of votes, he was perfectly willing that
his constituents should know
HOW HE VOTED,
and if he dared would tell every day how
he voted. He referred to the case of Ire
land as evidence that liberty was progress
ing, and urged senators to have done with
childishness and put on the garb of men.
He continued in satirical way TO tell how
it tickled the vanity of senators to see the
gallaries cleared as though some great and
mysterious thing were to be accomplished
and concluded by advising senators to stop
their star chamber proceedings.
Mr.. Riddleberger in Withdrawing his
substitute for the open executive session
resolution. said he had offered it in the be-
lief that it required two-thirds vote to
pass the resolution, for which he intended
his resolution to be a substitute. but finding
that the present form of the motion would
only require majority vote he would with
draw his substitute. Speaking of the man
ner in which secrets got out, he paid the
newspaper men great compliment on
their astuteness, saying that his observation
was that if they would undertake to ex-
change intelligence the newspaper men
would have the best of the senate by large
majority. After some further discussion
the senate went into executive session, and
when the doors opened adjourned.
