convention yesterday discussed resolu-
lions having in view the settlement of tho
differences between the Knights Of Labor
and the American Federation of Labor.
They were adopted by Q vote of 95 to 5.

men will be united.
The Proposition

ognize and respect the working cards Of such
Knights of Labor
Second-All labels the property of the Fed
GRAFTON or any body attached to it, or any Of
the labor organizations who are parties to the
agreement, shall be officially
Recognized and Indorsed
by the Knights of Labor, and all Knights Of
Labor labels shall be officially recognized by
the federation and the other parties to the
agreement.
Third-No person who is q suspended or sx-
pelled member Of any union in affiliation with
the Federation or of any other body party to
this agreement, or who is in arrears for dues
or assessments, or in any other way indebted

to membershipin in any assembly of the knights
OF Labor without the consent Of such union or
organization in writing, and in like manner no
person who has been expelled or suspended by
an assembly of the Knights of Labor. or who
is indebted or in arrears for dues and assess
ments to such assembly. shall be admitted to
membership in any union, affiliated with the
Federation, or any of the organizations who
are parties to this agreement.
Fourth-The provisions herein made shah be
promulgated as soon as practicable, and 60
into effect
On and After Jan. 1, 1902.
Resolved, That no local or other assembly Of
Knights Of Labor shall form An alliance or
Amliation with any body or organization that
shall refuse 70 enter into aaaeeIneHt = above
with this order; aud be It further
Resolved, That, should the American Feder-
alton of Labor 1T its coming annual session re-
fuse to enter into the agreement as outlined
above, 1t shall be the duty of the general on
GERS of the Knights of Labor to issue an ad-
dress to the workingmen of America setting
forth all the facts.
The proposition adopted proposing unity
of action to the American Federation OF
Labor is the sensation of the day among
the labor unions of the city.
The vote by which it was passed, IS yeas
to nays, is an indication of the earnest
ness of the knights and it is claimed that
a rejection by the Federation will be
equivalent to a desire on it's part for
WraueinQ.

the coroner, Seemed to cali for II o63s4al

On arriving at the house the officials found
Mr.. Boyle, the husband, standing guard,
armed with shotgun, and supported by
by his three sons, with pitchforks. The
Boyles refused entrance to the house, and
when policemen attempted to force their
way in Boyle fired at them, but without
effect. The posse were not prepared for
such vigorous resistance, and as the
small armed force Of Boyles advanced upon
them they bethought themselves of the
adage that discretion is the better part Of
valor, and hurried from the scene. The
Boyles, after seeing THAT the attacking
party had returned to the town, went back
and barricaded the house. At last 40
counts the authorities were preparing for
an attack in such force as to make resis-
tance upon the part of the Boyles futile,
and they expect to make this decisive
movement to-day.

from the use of the water, the curative
properties of which rival those of the
famous Hot Springs of Arkansas, the
superior climate and beautiful natural

Springs an especially attractive re-

are provided at reasonable rates, and
the journey to and from that point
can now be quickly and comfortably
made via the Chicago & North-W West

ATCHIsoN, Kan, March 26.-The Sc
verest snow storm Kansas has known in
years is now raging in the western part
of the state. 1t began Tuesday and the
snow is more than foot deep on the
level, and high wind has drifted it
badly in places. The Central branch
division of the Missouri Pacific has not
turned wheel all day. A number of
trains are laid out between stations.
The company is compelled to supply the
passengers and crews with food, which
is accomplished with difficulty, as the
highways are almost impossible. Dur
ing the afternoon a snow plow was
started from one of the division points
to rescue a passenger train, but the
drifting snow closed in behind it and it
was finally abandoned in the drift. The
snow travelled eastward, and the entire
northern half of the state, except the
eastern border, is covered with blankat
of snow.

in the House.
Record of Impeachment of E. st.Julien
Cox Expunged from the Records
of the State.

ST. PAUL, March 26.-The senate spent
most of Wednesday debating the special
order, which was Donnelly's constitu-
tional amendment regarding railroads.
Those that were against it were more
than those that were for it and the
measure was downed by the decisive
majority of 80 to 49,
The session opened with Lieutenant
Governor Ives in the chair for the first
time in three weeks. Mr.. Ives is still
unfit for prolonged duty, but is much
improved in health nevertheless. The
first business of the morning was
the oft-introduced resolution ex-
punging from the records of
of the state the story of the impeach-
ment of E. ST. Julian Cox some ten
years ago. MIR. Davis supported the
proposition with an earnest speech, in
which he made an earnest plea for the
family and especially the children of
Judge Cox. Senators Lineau, Donnelly
and Bell seconded the motion for the
passage of the resolution and forty-two
senators voted yea, carrying the meas
ure through.
When the special order was reached,
shortly after II o'clock, the gu stion
was on Senator Leavitt's motion to sus-
pend further action on Donnelly's rail
road amendment to the constitution un-
til the letter from Gen. Becker, of the
railroad commission, should be pro-
duced. Mr.. Donnelly again protested,
said that he had lest the letter, and it
made no difference anyhow. 1t ended
in Mr.. Leavitt being beaten by vote
of 80 to II.
The discussion of the bill then went
on at length. A number of minor
amendments were introduced and agreed
to and finally a copy Of the famous
Becker letter was brought in and read
by the secretary. 1t was not very
striking document, as Donnelly's objec-
tions to it might have led the senators
to believe. Gen. Becker at considerable
length pointed out his objections to the
bill and gave his reasons. Senator Taw-
ney spoke on the letter and then the sem
ate took recess till 3 p. m.
AT o'clock the discussion was re-
sumed and after a couple of hours de-
bate vote was taken resulting in 10
affirmative and 80 negative votes. So
another pet measure of the great COM
bine leader sleeps. The vote shows
that twelve Alliance men, six Demo-
Gratis and one Republican voted for the
bill
This concluded the special order and
report of the committee on drainage
on the Red River valley drainage bill,
which had not been disposed of at the
morning session, was next taken up A
disagreement over the disposition of the
bill was settled by reference to the
committee Of the whole.

REPUBLICANS AGREE.
A Peace Patched Up Between Malone
and Anti-Mahone Factions.

A Peace Patched Up Between Malone
and Anti-Mahone Factions.
WASHINGTON, March 26.-The white
and black Republicans of Virginia have
agreed. The Malone and Malone
factions, the latter led by John M.
Langston, the colored representative
from Virginia in the last congress, have
been at war for two years, and the Re
publican party of Virginia has suffered
a great deal on account of the row, as it
has been white against black Republi-
cans.
By uniting the forces of these rival
factions it is asserted that the Republi-
cans will be able to carry the state in
the next presidential election 1t is at
least possible to carry two or three con
gressional districts. A part of the agree
ment is said to be that the delegation in
the next convention is to be for Har-
rison.
