How Gould's Lawyers win Proceed.

NEW YORK, March 25.- General
Swayne, one of the counsel for Jay Gould,
in an interview with United Press re-
porter to-day stated that he had been con-
suited regarding the action of the Knights
of Labor on the strike now pending on
the Southwestern railroads, and actions
will be at once be commenced against the
order as well as against individual men,
bers of the order by the Missouri Pacific
Company to recover all damages the COM
pany may have sustained by reason of the
strike.
"The actions" he continued, "will be
commenced in st. Louis at an early day,
but am not at liberty to say whether in
structions have already been sent to st.
Louis to commence proceedings. The
liabilities of the Knights of Labor are of
both civil and criminal character. If
conspiracy can be proven, criminal action
will be commenced"
When asked how members of secret
organization like the Knights of Labor
could be discovered so as to enable his
company to begin actions against in
dividuals, General Swayne said:
'We will have no trouble i'm beginning
actions against several organizations, and
when that is done we can bring any of
their officers into court and compel them
to disclose the names of members. Their
oaths of secrecy will not shield them
from answering questions in a court of
justice, and if they refuse to answer on
that ground they will certainly be COM
mitted for contempt"
