Special Dispatch to THE EVENING STAR
BALTIMORE, Oct. 27.-The meeting Of the
archbishops OF the American Catholic church
to-day is the most important convention of the
church since the plenary council. Its purpose
is to define the position OF the church on the
kaights of Labor question. The present status
Is decidedly ambiguous. When Cardinal Tas-
chereau, of Canada, promulgated his order con-
cemning the Knights of Labor in that province
the various archbishops and bishops in this
country were led to express their opinions i'm
newspaper interviews. There was a very wide
divergence in these views. Cardinal Gibbons
said: las to the Knights OF Labor organization
In the United States, have not thoroughly ex-
amined their constitution or studied their pur-
poses; yet, from reading the newspapers and
MIR. Powderly's public statements, 1 infer that
the objects OF the knights are praiseworthy and
in no way opposed to the views OF the church.. >.
Several archbishops, however, took different
tion to define a definite policy. The import
ance OF the meeting to-day is clearly illustrated
by the presence of Archbishop kenrick, OF 1T.
Louis. he is very aged and weak, and nothing
put matter of the greatest moment could have
orought MIN here all the way from 81. Louis.
Nearly all the archbishOps arrived TO day. They
Will be In session at the cardinais residence on
North Charles street several days. No news of
their proceedings will be likely 10 reach the
pubic before next week. Any plan policy
must receive the unanimous vote OF the arch
bishops. If there is one dissenting vote the
whole matter will have to be sent TO Rome for
adjudication. The Catholic university will also
probably be discussed after the labor question
fS DISPOSED of.

An Agreement With Spain.

SUCCESSFUL. END OF THE NEGOTIATIONS FOR
AN ADJ JUSTMENr OF DISPUTED POINTS.
Since the proclamation OF the President restor-
ing duties on imports under the Spanish flag, me-
gotiations have been in progress between Spain
and the United States looking to an adjustment
OF the disputed points. No formal announce
ment has been made of the result, but it is
10 accept temporarily the Interpretation placed
upon the treaty by this government and place
imports into the West Indies under the Aneri-
can flag in the third column OF duties set out in
the treaty.
On the other hand, the proclamation reim-
posing discriminating duties on imports under
the spanish flag will be Withdrawn by the
President. Under this temporary arrangement
1t is believed that an agreement will soon be
reached by the two governments which will
obVlate the necessity OF ratifying a new treaty.

FEDERAL OFFICIALS TO BE CALLED TO AC-

But few politicians are in Washington this

finished their work, and all the candidates are
in the field. The habit of running to Washing
ton oil In hurry at the election hour to get
funds or offices to assist in the election is not
being followed this year. No assistance beyond
the sending out of documents by the campaign
committees has been drawn from the capital.

Uncle Sans Mail Service.

BELLS REPORT.
In his annual report, MIR. n. NJ. Bell, the
perintendent of foreign mails, presents some
interesting statistics comparing the postal Ser
vice OF the different untries included in the
union. Comparing the area ofthe country with
the number of post offices, it appears that Swift
zerland stands first with post office to every
5.4 square miles, while the United States takes
twelfth place, with one post office to every 1912
miles. On the basis OF population Canada heads
the list with one office TO every 63S inhabi-
tants. Switzerland is second, with one to every
S64, and the United States third, with one to
every 1892 inhabitants. The United States
ranks first in the length of railway service, with
id1,S36 miles, and Germany second, with
%, III miles. The United States spent more
for salaries OF post office employees than any
other country, bat exhibits larger deficiency
in revenue as compared with expenditures.
The recommendation is renewed that Congress
be asked to re-enact the law requiring ali ves-
sells OF United States register as condition of
their clearance, to receive and convey all United
States mails rendered to them upon such terms
as are now or may be hereafter allowed by Con-
