feet the arrangement between the Republi-
cans and Democrats in regard to the time Of
voting on the tariff bill. The arrangement
was to have the final vote about. September

Plumb. Mr. Plumb's opposition was dis
appointment to both Republicans and DEM
ocrats, but as he is quite fellow when he
gets into china shop, it was thought best to
handle him gently. The most experienced
members think the tariff bill will be voted on
finally by September Sth, and that the bill
will 60 to the House the same day, and be
put into conference at once. Other business
is so well in hand that this is expected to al

EXAMINED BY POWpERLY.
Discharged Employees Give their
Version of the Story.

ALBANY, N. Y, August 25.-After the
Labor had taken a recess this afternoon
SecretaryHayes said: SIN the conference this
morning nearly all the discharged men were
present as delegates, and were prepared
with their proofs to show that the reason
for their discharge was because they were
Knights of Labor. 1t was shown that until
their connection with the Knights of Labor
was known, there were no charges of drunk
enneSs, inSubOrdination or inc0mpetency
against them. The cases of other discharged
men who were not delegates consequently
could not be admitted to the conference and
will be investigated later"
Mr. Powderly said he thought the men had
just reasons for going out on strike. His
personal investigation of the causes for the
discharge of several men, satisfied him they
were discharged for the sole reason of their
being Knights.
At the afternoon conference 20 men who
were discharged were admitted and ques-
toned by Mr.. Powderly relative to the
causes which they thought had led to their
dismissal. Close questioning failed to dis
close. except in a single instance, that any
OF the causes set forth by the officials of the
Central road could have been grounds for
the discharge of the men. 1t is claimed that
many facts were brought out which tended
to show that these wholesale discharges were
the result OF preconcerted plan to drop all
the prominent leaders in the circle of
Knights. 1t has been charged that the K of
l.. is "foreign organization" and that this
strike is the result of its Vaccinations. Mr..
Powderly asked all the delegates present
| who were born under the American flag, to
stand up. Sixty-seven delegates arose.
When those born abroad were asked to rise,
10 responded. The men were asked what
sort of persons we're filling their places ON
the Central road, so far as they knew per-
sonally. The general tenor of the replies
former employees who had been discharged
for incompetency, intoxication and dishon-
esty. A resolution was adopted, calling up
on the State Board of Arbitration to order a
| prompt investigation of the existing Difficult
ties. saving the. strikers were ready and anx,
| ious for one. Another meeting of the Board
has been called for Thursday.
