Contemplating Secession.
PrTTsBURG, Nov. ia movement has
been started by Local Assembly Gill,
Knights Of Labor, composed Of green glass
workers, which threatens to end in a big
secession from the knights OF Labor ranks.
The movement originated in the alleged
improper conduct of Louis Arlington,
master workman Of the Green Glass Work
ers' National assembly, owing to that gem
tleman's plan to build a cooperative green
glass factory, which caused general dissat-
isfaction to the Pittsburg assembly.
A committee composed of leading mem
bers Of Local Assembly Gill has been at
work for several weeks, and according to
reports is meeting with encouragement.
The plan of the committee is to interest
five Of the strongest green glass workers
assemblies in the plan Of seeding. Dis
satisfaction with Mr. Powderly has also
been breeding in the Pittsburg assembly
for three years The secession Of the green
glass workers would take from the Knights
of Labor at least 5000 members A re-
port on the subject is expected next Friday
night.

said there was likely to be trouble between
the men and the officials unless the de-
mRnds are granted.

No Intention OF retiring.


DUBLIN. Nov. 1s-The editor OF The
Freeman's Journal makes the following
statement: II have direct authority for
stating that Mr.. Parnell has not the re.
hottest intention of abandoning, either
permanently or temporarily, his position
or his duties as leader of the Irish parlin-
mentary party. This may be implicitly y
accepted as Mr.. Parnell's firm resolution,
and perhaps by learning it in time the
Piggottist press may be spared the humil-
iation OF indulging in a prolonged out
burst Of useless viliication.
In arriving at this determination
need not say that Mr. Parnell is actuated
exclusively by his sense of his RESPONSE
bility to the Irish people by whose suffrage
he holds his public position and who alone
have the power or the right to influence
his public action. The wild, INSCRIPTIONS
and insincere shrieking of the piggotists
on the platforms and in the press can and
will do nothing to alter Mr.. parnellis re.
