NEw YoaK, Juue 24.-The New York as
sembly of the Telegrapher's union met Mon
day night and received reports of its dele
gates to the recent convention in st Louis.
The New York men voted against joining
the knights of Labor before the conven-
tion, and Monday nights meeting was held
principally for the purpose of impress
ing upon them that the operators of the
west, southwest and south are, to a man, in
favor of amalgamating with the knights.
No action was taken toward making the
New \ ork telegraphers signify their will.
ingness to become knights. Tom o Reilly
president of the telegraphers' union of the
United States, will start uext Monday for a
general tour of the country, organizing
unions and preaching the union doctrine.
He claims that the forces scattered in the
unsuccessful fight of 1888 have been recalled
and strengthened, and that the organza
tion is stronger than ever before
