WASHINGTON, Dec. 1G.-Ry invitation
the representatives Of the various trans
Atlantic steamship companies were be-
lore the Senate and House Committees
on Immigration to-day, to give their
views concerning the bill introduced in
the Senate by Chandler, supending immi-
grafton for one year. Gtstave II. Schwab
OF New York presented the case for
the steamship men, and argued against
the prohibition of immigration. lie ev-
pressed the belief that the magnificent
development Of the material resources Of
our country is due to the enormous i'm
migration of the last half century. He
argued that Americans would not and
could not perform the heavy manual
labor and menial service required in the
development of the country; therefore
immigration is essential. Suspension
could never be enforced, as the northern
and southern frontiers could not be pro-
tected, and the danger from cholera
would be increased because the quaran-
tine could not be maintained on these from
tiers. He said Colonel Weber's plan was
the only feasible one. In brief, that sys-
tenn provided for the examination of en-
lgrants before departure by the steam
ship companies, who are held liable lor
improper entries.

Another employe of the Carnegie Steel
Company has died and his friends are
fearful that he was victim of the poison
ing plot. Joseph Springer secured a posi-
ton as laborer at Homestead during the
strike. A few days ago he returned to
his home near Clinton, broken down in
health. He could retain nothing on his
stomach and grew rapidly worse until
yesterday, when he died of what was
pronounced hemorrhage of the bowels.
So firmly convinced are the dead mans

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 16.-At to-day's
session of the American Federation of
Labor the proposition for the Federation
to take any action toward assisting in the
Worlds Fair Congress was defeated by
an overwhelming vote.
The recommendations in the Presi-
dents report were approved, including
the clauses relating to woman organizers,
whose work was complimented, and re-
lating to the Labor Day Committees ap-
peal for the establishment of a National
Labor Day in the districts and Terri
tories.
1t was voted to notify the President Of
the United States of the action condemn
ing the employment of Chinese sailors by
the Pacific Mail Steamship Company.
\ resolution relating to the action of
the President and Executive Council re-
questing conferences with the knights
of Labor unions stirred up a lively debate.
The committee recommended that the
highest duty of the Federation was to
defend unions selected by the Knights of
Labor for attack, and that the Executive
Committee take such action as to enforce
this idea. Adopted.
The special Committee on Militia at
Strikes reported in part as follows: I'm

until liberty gives way to despOtism,
since the recent uses TO which the troops

therefore believe here is the vital point
of our grievances. The American Feder-
alton OF Labor and affiliated bodies de-
mand of the Legislatures the enactment
of laws creating a Board of Commits
slOners, to be selected as are Congress
siona1 Districts in the State. This com
mission only shall have power to cali out
the militia after an investigation of the
labor difficulties in conjunction with the
Governors. In cases OF labor difficulties,
1t shall be unlawful for the Governor to
call out the militia for the suppression of
the same except upon petition signed by
at least one-fourth of the qualified voters
OF the county wherein the trouble exists
As measure against the employment
OF Pinkertons or other armed forces, the
resolutions demand the enactment of laws
by the several States prohibiting nom
residents from serving as peace officers
1t was also recommended that the Fed
Grafton refuse, under any circumstances,
to enlist in the National Guard. and mem
bers now enlisted withdraw as soon as
they can lawfully do so, unless one or
the other of the propositions proposed be
embodied in the State laws.
After considerable discussion the rec
ommendation of the committee was
stricken out, and clause adopted instead
favoring the support of labor repre-
sentation in administrative and legisla-
tive departments of National and State
governments, and advising members TO
see that the friends of labor command
militia rather than friends of capital.
The convention then adjourned for the

A Letter From the Pope Creates Pro-
found Excitement in Europe.
ROME, Dec. 16.-Tbe Pope has issued n
crushing letter on the question of Free
Masonry, which has caused profound ex-
element throughout Europe. His Holi-
ness begins by declaring that no one
can be a true Italian who allows continu-
Gus offenses against the church and
against the sovereign who holds the spir-
itual scepter of the world, or against the
papacy which has created the great edifjce
of Christian civilization. He adds that
the Masonic sects are carrying on at pres
ent warfare for the purpose of DESTROY
ing religion and the Holy See of st. Peter.
which was established by the will of
Christ in Rome, the Eternal CITY. in
which hundreds of martyrs had shed
their blood for the faith.
The churches have been deprived of
the property left to them to help them to
carry on religious worship. and every
thing is being done to put stop to relig-
ious marriages and to prevent religious
funerals. Converts and monasteries
have been closed, while Masonic societies
have multiplied with the full consent of
the Government.
The Pope further demonstrates that the
Masonic power is not only running relig-
ion, but is further removing the solution
of great social questions by exciting in
the working classes a thirst for riches
which prevents them labOring, and there
by brings ruin upon themselves and their
families. The Pope also says it is the fault
