| with Jay Gould, which the Tribune pub
fishes this morning, Gould, in referring to
an Interview between himself and Pow
DERBY, quotes the latter as saying OF Dis
trict No. 101 OF the Knights Of Labor.
"They are outlaws. They are one of the
worst set of men I ever saw. When l was
ont there among them I was really afraid
of my life. They have broken the laws OF
the order; have began the strike without
authority. and tomorrow / intend to issue
a circular righting myself and placing
these men in their true light" What
will be the outcome Of the Southwestern

power will.be gone"

gineer Arthur, of the Brotherhood OF
Locomotive Engineers. returned from the
seat of trouble in the Southwest. In an
interview he declined to go into the cues
ton of the existing strike. but said: ]
heartily endorse the sentiments of Mr..
| Powderly, and if his ideas are carried out
no serious difficulty can occur. / think
the strike will result in the enactment OF
a law by the Knights which will effectually
prevent any such trouble in the future.
In regard to the report that l am opposed
TO the eight-hour law, | wish to say ID is moi
true. I am in favor of any law that will
rromote the welfare Of w~orkingmen.
There are, however, in my opinion
large number who would not profit Sy
the enactment Of such q law.
