ALBANY. August 9th.-In conversation
to- night with striker, he said The COM
pany for the past three weeks has been
laying off some of its Oldest employees and
most loyal members OF the Knights OF
Labor When asked the reason for dis
missing them, they were told that they
could not do their work properly. One Of
the members was a machinist in the car
| shops for twenty years. Another had been
| foreman for fourteen years and an engin-
| eer for six years. The men said it was an
effort on the part of the company to break
| up the organization. This view was
strengthened when it was learned that an
emissary was in Utica Saturday last, when
the Convention of District Assembly 246
was held, and copied from the register of
the hotel where they were stopping the
name of every delegate who was in New
| York Central employ. All these men, one
by one, during the past week were dropped
by the company. 1t was then decided that
| it was for them to assert their rights"
| Large shipments of cattle from the West,
which were billed via the Central road, and
which have been lying in Buffalo since last
night, have been ordered reshlpped over
the other roads.
PowDERLY TALKS.
SCRANTON (Pa.), August 9th.-General
Master Workman Powderly, when asked
his views concerning the railway strike,
said that some time since it was reported 10
him that the employees of that line were
being Disseminated against, the discharged
men all being known as leaders of organ
lied labor. The strike is taken as a final
protest against such discrimination, which
had become unbearable. Powderly said
| q. II g L !
ganization from New York to Buffalo All
these organizations are not members of the
Knights of Labor but their action is con.
certed one and there will be perfect unity
In conclusion Mr.. Powderly said: u
notice the statement that Chauncy Depew
is not held responsible for the trouble
and that the discharge of the men took
place without his knowledge or consent
On the contrary, before he went to Europe
his men were being victimized, so he is as
responsible as he was before he sailed fol
the old world. He is not pauper, and a:
a consequence can use the electric cable
He knows all that transpires in this coun.
try pertaining to his own interests"
