The attention the DemOrest machine

much for him, and his feelings were
soon shown IN words. CrOss-fires were

ellt; a meeting is called to be held
next Saturday night. Investigation
of the cause developed the following
facts: The movement is national aud
affects all the machinists, black
smiths, boilermakers, patternmakers
aud molders from New York to Chi
cago. Some time ago Local Assem-
bly, 791 left D. A. No. 3 and formed
National Trades District No. 19.
headquarters at Cleveland. Eigh-
teen months ago this district had
more than 10000 members. Now
there are not more than 5000 mem
bers. When the members of the
above assembly applied for a charter
it was understood that the charter
would include machinery construc
tors, molders, blacksmiths, pattern
makers and boilermakers. When
the charter was received it included
only machinery constructors and
blacksmiths. Repeated efforts failed
to have this defect in the charter
rectified and the charter committee
became disgusted and reported to
their master workman. That officer
last week issued circulars to the 46
locals in D. A. No. 10 to hold meet
ings in their respective halls next
Saturday and have the men form a
solid phalanx to withdraw from the
X. of L. in body. 1t is the inten-
tion of the seceders to form what
will be known as the Independent
Order of Machinery Constructors
of the United States. The order
be will attached to the American Fed
Grafton of Labor, but will be indie
pendent in the control of its mem.
bers. They will join in the eight
hour movement in 1890. The loss
of revenues to the Knights of Labo,
by this move will exceed $4,000 an
nually.

construed to authorize any person
to enter upon or occupy any of the

otherwise, until after the Indian
tribes and the commissioners provid

an agreement to that effect. After
the agreement has been madeit shall
be laid before the president, who is
authorized and required to issue his
proclamation declaring such relin-
quished lands open to settlement
and fix the time from and after
which such lands may be taken. 1t
is provided that any persons who
may enter upon any part of the land
contrary to these provisions and pri-
or to the time fixed by the presi
dents proclamation shall not be per
mitted to make entry upon any land

tory. The legislative appropriation

skirmish in the house this morning

taken up for consideration.
The pending question was on the
motion of MIR. Springer of Illinois.

Of Virginia, to reconsider the vote
by which the house yesterday reiec-
ted the minority substitute.
The motion to table was carried,

The question then reurred on the
passage of the bill, pending which
Mr.. Hooker of Mississippi, entered
dilatory motions to adjourn aud to
take q recess, but retained from
making the point of no quorum and
allowed them to be voted upon. But
Mr.. Cheadle of Indiana, proved more
inexorable and brought proceedings
to a standstill by demanding the
reading of the engrossed bill. The
bill was not engrossed, and the clerk
stated that it would require all hour
or more to perform the work. While
various propositions were presented
to kill time and allow tie clerks tc
engross the bill, Mr.. Cleadle relent
