Powderiy Says the Strike Becomes One
for the Whole Organization.
New YORK, August 20th-Powderly
states that the strike has ceased to be one
of the local assemblies, and has become
one of the whole organization, and it will
use every means in its power to continue
the fight. He intimates that the Federation
of Railroad Employees will support the
movement. The situation is serious.
Grand Master Sargent, President of the
Council. and chief of the fremen's organ
ization, 6as ordered meeting of the Su
preme Council for Saturday at Terre Haute,
for consideration of the question of the
New York Central strike. Whether this
movement means that the Council must go
through certain iormalities before general
strike can be declared, or whether no strike
is to be declared at all, remains to be seen.
NO ARBITRATION.
NEW YORK, August 20th.-Powderly and
Devlln, of the Executive Board of the
Knights of Labor, called on Webb this
evening. Toucey was with Webb, and the
four gentlemen had an interview which
lasted twenty minutes. The offer of Pow
derby to submit the matter to arbitration
Webb refused, on the ground already pre-
sented-in other words, he said the COM
pany was not jumping on the Knights of
Labor They had not discharged men be-
cause they were knights of Labor. but for
good reasons. Neither Depew nor Wander
bilt were opposed to the Knights of Labor
as an organization.
Powderly once more urged that the mat
ter be srbitrated. but Webb remained firm.
Devlin asked Webb if he would consent
to an investigation of the causes surround
ing the discharge of the fifteen men.
Webb reiterated that there was nothing
to investigate; that the company was man.
aging the road, and he did not see why
their action should be questioned.
Devlin then asked him if he didn't owe
the public and the employees of the road
any duty regarding its management, in
which all were more or less interested.
Webb did not reply. Devlin then said
there was no use in further discussing the
matter as the railway company had de-
clared themselves in favor of an independ-
ent course.
Toucey then said that Master Workman
Lee was primarily responsible for the
strike.
Devlin asked Toucey if he would waive
the question Lees action and consider the
discharge of his men.
Toucey and Webb retired and that ended
the conference.
Powderly and Devlin withdrew without
making any threats or intimating what
they intended TO do. Webb gives this version
of the interview and said the whole confer
manner.
At this hour (9:45 P. NJ the situation at
the depot is unchanged.

the presentation speech in well-chosen
words. The President remarked that he
was indeed happy to receive the handsome
invitation. 1t was but another proof of
the whole-souled good-fellowship, and gen.
erosity of the Pacific coast people.
The President was delighted with the in
vitation as conveyed upon the golden card,
and was sincere in his expression of ap-
probation. He said that it was his birth
day, and remarked that it was very happy
coincidence that he was the recipient of a
golden present on this anniversary
Mr.. McKenna on behalf of the party ex-
pressed regret that the President was un-
able to accept the invitation to be present
at Californias celebration of her admission
to the sisterhood of States, andimportuned
President Harrison to make visit to Cali
fornia in the near future.
The President said that he would visit
the Pacific coast at the very first opportu-
nifty. He inquired of the Pioneers and
Native Sons of the Golden West" and was
told that the former society was composed
Of old. time Pacific coasters who had
reached the golden shores OF the Pacific be-
fore 1919, and that the Native Sons of the
Golden West were young men who were
natives of California.

The Election Bill.

CINCINNATI, August 20th.-Ex-Governo
Foraker has written letter to an evening
newspaper, giving, at the EDITORS request
q brief statement of the nature of the pro-
posed Federal election law, and the pur-
pose of the Republican party in enacting
il. Foraker says it is not an outgrowth of
sectionalism, hatred of the South, or even
partsanisIn. It's sole purpose is TO give
effect 10 constitutional provisions, with
respect to the exercise Of the right of sui
frage, and to secure honest Congressional
elections, and the whole outcry against il
is because its provisions are such as are
likely to accomplish its purposes. He
predicts that its enactment would bring
material prosperity to the South, and that
ten years hence its opponents will be
ashamed Of their opposition.
