G. NJ. w. POWDERLY ISSUES A CALL
FOR A MEETING OF TIE K. OF L.

Grand Master Workman Powderly
has issued call for special meeting
OF thr Ex' cutive Board Of Knights OF
Labor, giving the following reasons:
l. The rapidly increasing members
ship Of the order requires changes in
the laws which the General Executive
Board have no authority to make. (
2. The laws in relation to the gov
ernment Of boycotting are wholly in>
adequate to compel obedience on the
part o: assemblies that believe in boy
cotting for every ofense, whether
great or small.
3. The laws in relation to strikes do
not give the General Executive Board
power to interfere in such matters until
after the strike has been inaugurated.
4. The order has become involved
In difficulties with trade societies, and
an effort is being made to create
rupture between these societies and the
Knights of Labor.
The Grand Master Workman, on
the Sd inst, issued very lengthy
secret circular 10 the order, which is
now made public. It recounts the
course of the recent strikes in detail,
vindicates his own conciliatory course
denounces bOycotts and the attempts
to foment trouble betWeen the Knights
and Trades Unions, advised firm, dig
nified, but strictly lawful conduct, and
declares that he will not answer letters
or receive committees until the Gen-
eral Assembly meets.

merrY Times on sOhange-A Hand organ Grinds Out the Merry Christi mas ChImes-Foung Brokers Indulge i'm Football and other Jolly Antics Business Generally Neglected While the Marke ct is weak ana Ealt1ng.
 NEW YORK. Dec. a.
 The smallest mornings business for any morning of the year was transacted this morning and the extreme range of fluctuations did not exceed E of per cent. on any stock except Jersey Central. which at Ii o'clock was A per ceht. higher than it closed last night The majority of the stocks opened M to 114 per cent lower and continued weak at that decline during most of the morning. Toward noon there was some recovery, but st 1s o'clock prices generally fractionally lower than they closed last night. The sales for the morning amounted to 4, GOO shares. The most active stocks were Lacka wanna, Jersey Central, Reading, Louisville and Nashville and New York and New England. The stock market was extremely dull this afternoon At times business was at a complete standstill Most of the time devoted to fun and frolc. The younger brokers played football and other games much to the disgust of their older colleagues. An organ grinder was pressed into service and com pelled to play all the airs in his machine, while many of the brokers waltzed around in a bewilder- ing manner. After the organ grinder got tired several members of the board took his place and ground out ear splitting tones with renewed zest. The organ grinder was finally sent away loaded down with silver coin which the brokers showered upon him without stint. Some hat smashing was induged in, but not so much as previous occa- sions. At the close prices were H to IA lower than at the close yesterday. The days sales amount ed to only 79, ,43s shares.
 Money closed at per cent. The highest rate was and the lowest per cent.

A MERRY CHRIsTmAs.
The Dixwell Avenue Church Building
 Fund.

The DfxWen Avenue Church Building
 Fund.
 We would this morning wish our many friends who have enabled us by their gene rous assistance to build "A Merry Christ mas" We sincerely trust that their joys this Christmas will be none the less real be- cause of what they may have consecrated to the work of elevating those of the African race in this community. Since our last re- port two of our friends who gave $50 each to our cause have been called from a life of toll and suffering to their rich and enduring rewards-Dr. George B. Farnam and Prof. H. c. Kingsley. Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord" When saw the late Dr. Farnam last he expressed an intention to give our cause still further aid and with him do firmly believe it was more blessed to give than to receive. Mt. Carmel was visited last Sunday morning. An address was de- livered by your humble, and though next Sunday had been appointed az the time when collection would be lifted for our cause, the Rev. MT. Higgins suggested that owing to the uncertainty of the weather the collec- tion be taken then and there. intimating that those who could not give then could do so next Sunday.
 AL aIIoTuOOu SoftiCo Gue new DrOLAcE Higgins, who preached to us, assured your correspondent that the church at Mount Carmel would contribute not less than twen- ty-five dollars.
 The Rev. Dr. George Bushnell on last Monday morning thought that he must be- come one of the 300 S5 men wished and prayed for in our last communication. Mrs. William Bunce sent on same day $5 for this enterprise. The Rev. W. J. Mutch handed me $2 given by lady member of his church who walks ''from over on the hilp' twice a day to her work in the city, Miss Sarah Moi fatt.
 On Wednesday Mrs. J. s. Tyler, president of a benevolent society consisting of nine ladies in East Haven, came in, bringing as an offering five dollar gold piece.
 All these kind friends will please accept our many thanks for their deep interest in us, and remember Him who says: "He that giveth to the poor 1endeth unto the Lord, whose promise is a cup of cold water shall not be given in his name without it's reward.
 I think we could get an army of ladies on our side in the different churches. How soon would this little debt disappear?
 Friends who would like to invest to the amount of five dollars, or less, will please send word to 4SO Elm street, and will as- sure them of an early response.
 Allowing twenty-five dollars as given by the church at Mount Carmel this week yields SAP, which added to $1, ,O65. 50, makes $1, ,107. 50 collected up to date, or pledged. This leaves $1, 392. 50 to be raised. Who will help to wipe this debt out now due the builders? A. P. MILLER,
 4SO Elm Street
