Proceedings of the Meeting at Indianapo-

INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 4--MaSter Work
man Powderly arrived in the morning, and
when he came down into the hotel office the
sentiment in his favor was apparent by the
! way the delegates crowded about him. He
called the Knights of Labor assembly TO or.
der at lG15 Il. m, and the contestants and
ali persons except delegates were excluded
from the hall. The COMMITTEES on credentials
then made It's report.
A member of tie committee said that
Barry's case had not even been considered
by the committee, and that he would not be
admitted us Il delegate. Barry is the dele
gate from, ard master workman Of, the AK
makers assembly. 1t is claimed that his ex
pulsion from the executive board makes him
ineligible. He is outspoken in his denuncia.
of Powderly ano the present regime.
Barry produced letter sent through the
mails to him on November 8. On the en-
velope, in large letters, were written the
words, Expelled by the G. Z. A." meaning
the General Executive assembly,
Barry went to the hall, and is determined
to have hearing of what he claims an un-
necessary extravaganza with the funds Of
the order. He says no can name man who
spent five months honeymoon on Pow
derly's money.
George Schilling, the Chicago Anarchist,
is here. His credentials are being consid-
cred. He said that he was confident of being
admitted.
The general expression seems to be that
while there will be opposition to Powderly
and the present administration, it will be
overcome 10y great majority of delegates
who are on Powderly's side in the contest.
After the report on credentials, the ap-
pnintment of various committees is in
order and the reports and recommendations
of these bodies Will be the principal work of
the assembly.
The opposition to delegates was not in the
form of contests, but rather protests against
the legality of their election and credentials
The opposition to Shilling, of Chicago
failed to materialize to any extent, and he
was awarded his seat.
When those who were not delegates were
requested to leave the hall, Barry, of the
Axmakers assembly, who is leading the op-
position to Powderly, did not leave the hall,
and when the meeting was called to order
he got up and attempted to speak. He was
stopped by Master Workman Powderly,
who told him he was an expelled member,
and had no rights there whatever, and
ordered him to stop speaking and leave the
hall. Barry insisted on having a hearing,
aud was called to order number
of times, the chair telling him to
"go out" as be knew the law in the case.
and that he had no rights there Barry then
said: "If can have no hearing here l will be
heard before the bar Of public opinion" and
walked out.

LONDON, Nov. IA Considerable wreclsage
and a number of bodies have washed ashore
between Looe and Polperro, In Cornwall,
during the last day or two. One Of the
bodies has been identified MS that OF Capt
Meyer Of the German ship Theodore Ruger,
from Hamburg for Sydney. Articles that
have come ashore have also been recognized
as belonging 10 both that vessel aud to tho
Cunard steamer Nantes, with which the
Theodore Ruger was In collision thirty-six
miles off the Lizard. There * now no doubt
of the total loss Of both vessels with most os
the crew Of tho Nantes and a part OF the

THE RESIGNATION
Of Sir Charles Warren Cheered

Notes.
LONDON, Nov. 14.-In the house Of COM
mons Monday afternoon Mr.. Matthews, the
home secretary announced the resignation Of
Gen. Warren as chief Of tho metropolitan
police. The announcement was greeted with
cheers.
1t transpires that Sir Charles Warren had
not intended to resign, despite the popular
.lamor for his removal, until in the latter
part Of last week he heard frou what seemed
TO him excellent authority, that the goveri-
ment had decided to make of him vicariols
sacrifice in the interest Of one or two of bis
superiors in official life.
Knowing that the cabinet would hold q
council on Saturday, presumably with the
object of making his case the chief subje,t
of discussion, Gen. Warren wrote letter 20
Home Secretary Matthews on Friday even
ing, rendering his resignation, ostensibly
because the home secretary, O week previous,
had mildly censured him for having written
a magazine article defending the admins
tration at Scotland Yard, the writing Of
which was a violation of the civil service
rules
1t is undeniably fact that until the ra
ceipt of Gen. Warren's letter Mr. Matthews
was not aware that the former had written
the article mentioned, but beisg fully aware
that he was the principal person for whose
shortcomings the chief commissioner of tie
metropolitan police was to be made scap,-
goat the home secretary made haste to a ;,
cept the resignation and secure in its a.,
ceptance the acquiesence of his colleagues
The police as well as the general public are
delighted at the retirement of Gen. Warren,
whose arbitrary administration has rendered
life miserable to them, but all fear that I'll g
sudden change in the head Of the police do
partment will involve temporary trouble
with the Socialists who are conspicuously
jubilant over Warren's departure from
Scotland Yard, and already discussing plans
for demonstration il celebration Of TIE
event
1t is probable that either Assistant Con =
missioner Monroe, Chief Constable Wood, Of
Manchester, or Mr.. G. E. Howard Vincent
member of parliament for central Sheffield,
will succeed Gen. Warren, though Home
Secretary Matthews favors Chief Constaoe
Farndale, of Birmingham, for the position.
Chief Warren says that alth ough every
suggested clew has been followed, all the

SIR CHARLES WARREN. dangerous for II
stranger to invade the district and run the
risk of arousing suspicion by ofticious in
quiry and any wandering behavior A man
of that stamp was yesterday handled, and nj
doubt would have been killed had he no.
been rescued by the police. He was landed
in the station house with fractured arm
and sprained ankle.
At the inquest a witness, Mary Cox, de
scribed man, the probable fend, who en-
tered Kelly's room with her, as a short, stout
man, shabbily dressed, with a red mustache
and blotchy face. The detectives have been
let loose in search of such a man, and many
who fill the description have been arrested
on suspicion.
Popular excitement over the latest White
chapel murder receives an additional i'm
petus today by the finding of woman's
body floating in the Thames. The body was
we'll dressed and the police are uncertain
whether to account for the woman's death
by murder or suicide There is yet abso-
lutely no clew. The wards nd jacent to where
the body was taken from the river have been
searched by the police and one rough look
ing fellow, carrying a large bowie knife, has
been arrested. He will probably be dis.
charged, however, as there is no proof
against him.
