He Claims That the Action of the Execu. tive Board in Expelling Him Was Sus- tained by Illegal Represent ation.


 INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 19-T. B. Barry, ill a partial statement ill answer to the action of the General Assembly of Knights of Labor In eXpelling him, charged that the member ship of anti-administration districts has been credited to those supporting Powderly, and that representatives have been seated ill the assembly who have no legal rights as dele. gates, While others who were lawfully elected have been denied their seats The charter of D. A. 74 of East Saginaw, Mich, he says was revoked on the plea that the district was imperative When the clerk who was as. signed to transfer the locals to the Michigan state assembly discovered that there were seven In the district he informed the chief clerk of the fact. The chief clerk said: ''Never mind. Go on with the transfers, We have done this for the best interests of the order. The representatives from that dis trlct supported Barry on every occasion at the last general assembly,"
 All the machinery of the general office, it Is charged by him, was used to pack D. A. Mo- l, of Philadelphia, to prevent the cleo. tion of the master workman of the district as representative to the present assembly, This was done ill the interest of McFeelv, who Is here as a supporter of Powderly, and Is illegally seated in the general assembly. In accomplishing this wrong, Mr. Barry says, McFeely and Clymer, both employed Ill the general office, spent a great part of their time in designating, in a list, what locals would support the administration and considering how those opposed to it could be handicapped. Next followed the suspension Of all anti administration locals This action was taken without stating the fact that at the August session of the general executive board resolution was passed to suspend no 1 locals which were i'll arrears for tax, but in stead to urge payment on their part
