Past Commander-in-Ch Chief Beath has issued
a third edition of the Grand Army Blue
Book, giving, in supplement of 80 pages
the changes made at the San Francisco En-

Resolrcd. That this National Encampment, actu-
ated by desire for uniformity of rulings and de-
esions upon the Laws. Rules and Regulations of the
Grand Army of the Republic, does hereby indorse
the Blue Book compiled and written by Past Com

authoritative book of reference and authority, and

THE Knights of Labor have reached a
stage in their development which every
student of sociology has anticipated. 1t was
inevitable, with their rapid growth and sud-
den accession to enormous power that dis
sension should develop which may threaten
the very existence of the order. Not theleast
of the many astonishing things in the history
of the organization is that these discussions
have not developt ere this. The outcome of
the present struggle between the organization
and the Federation of Trades will be awaited
with interest Unless the Knights win a
complete victory the organization is doomed,
and will soon occupy as little place in the
public mind as the Changers now do.

A BIG LOCKOUT


or Chicago Pork Paokers-A Determined

CHICAGO, October 1.-The statement Il
published this afternoon that a great lock.
out at the stock yards has been decided
upon aone time during this month, when
the packing houses will all shut down and
remain closed until the question OF eight
hours or ten hours ia. settled. One Of the
large packers said this morning; "Trouble

ten hours. So the trouble might 90 well
come at once as to drag along until we are

will shut down ops alter another ior re-

The fact Of the lockout Is authoritative.
