To the Editor of the Sun.
The public meeting held at Cooper Union
on the 18th of February instant, is based
upon an imaginary grievance and a misap-
prehension of historical facts The call
declares that the holding of New York
Democratic state convention sin midwin-
ter,'' at so long period as four months be-
fore the presidential convention, is mot
only undemocradc, but unprecedented in
the history of the party in this state" This
assertion is distinctly and wholly erroneous,
and ask the attention of the signers of the
call and of your readers generally to the
following table of the dates of conventions
since 1914, which, 1 think, will be found
correct:

IMMIGRATION ESSENTIAL.
In the Opinion of the Owners of Trar
Atlantic Steamship Lines.

In the Opinion of the Owners of Trans
Atlantic Steamship Lines.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 15.-By invitation rep
resentatives of the varions transatlantic
steampship companies were before the sem
ate and house committees on immigration
to-day to give views concerning the bill in
troduced in the senate by Chandler, aus
pending immigration for one year. Gustave
III. Schwob. of New York, presented the
cuse for the steamship men, and argued
against the prohibition OF immigration. He
expressed tho belief that the magnificent
development of tho material resources of
our country are due to the enormous immi-
grafton of the last half century. He argued
that Americans could not and would not
perform the heavy manual labor and menial
service requi ed in the development of the
country; therefore. immigration is es-
sentiRl.
Suspension could nevor be enforced, as
the northern and southern frontiers could
not be protected, and danger from cholera
would be increased because quarantine
could not be maintained on these frontiers.
He held sanitary science approved the pres
ent system. Heannounced the Willingness
of the steamship companies to maintain
quarantine points of departure. He said
Col. Weber's plan was the only feasible
one. In brief, that system provided for tho
examination of emig ants before depart
ure, by steamship companies who are to be
held liable for improper entries.

LABOR SHOULD COMMAND.
Resolution of tho Federation on the Sub

Resolution of tho Federation ON the Sub
ject of National Guard.
PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 16.-At to-day's ses-
sion Of the American Federation of Labor
a proposition for the federation to take any
action towards assisting in Worlds fail
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 in relation to
labor dav. The committee recommended
the establishment of national labor day
in districts aud territories. 1t was voted to
notify the president Of tho United States of
the action condemning the employment OF
ship company.
A resolution relating to the action of the
president and executive council in request
ing conferences with the Knights OF Labor
stirred up a lively debate. The committee
recommended re that the highest duty of the
federation was to defend unions selected
by the Knights of Labor for attack. and
that the exective committee take such ac-
tion as to enforce this idea. i his was
adopted.
the special committee on the militia in
strikes reported in part as follows: I'm
lesa q halt is called it will not be long until
liberty gives way to despotism. Since the
reCeuG uses TO WnlCn trOOpS nave De9n SUD
jcoted have been brought about by allowing
the people unchallenged to surrender their
power. We therefore believe that herein is
the vital point OF our grievances. The
American Federation of Labor and af1il-
lated bodies demand of legislatures the en-
actment of laws creating board of COM
missioners to be selected in the congress

resolutions demand the enactment of laws

dents from serving as peace officers. 1t was
also also recommended that the federation

in the National guard, and members nov
enlisted should be withdrawn us soon al
they can lawfully do so. unless one or the
other of the propositions proposed be en-
bodied i'll state laws.

mendation of tho committee was stricken

Over the Subject of the Gunm aking Firm
of Loewe e. Co.
BERLIN, Dec. 16.-Once again Berlin is
wrought mp. Paris Figaro publishes let
ter from Loewe q Co., a firm of Jewish
Gunmakerg, to Gen. Boulanger, when the
latter was minister of war, saying that
hearing he had sent an agent to America to
purchase machine to make new Lebel
rifles, they offered to furnish the French
government SUCH machinery. Boulanger
made no reply. The National Zeitung
showed the dispatch to Loewe. who replied:
"Figat to's letter is quite true. but that was
in 1856, whereas we only began manufac-
turing guns for the German government in
1889"
The ZeitunR takes Loewe to task, saying
that such an offer was unwise and impru-
dent, it Icing made at the time of the Bou-
LANCER agitation. when it was generally be-
lieved that France would make war upon
Germany. The news was at once conveyed
10 the emperor, who was keenly annoyed at
this utther scandal. He Immediately in
stituted inquiry and the news was confirmed
from Loewe's own mouth. The general
! ublio reserved the news with feelings un-
complimentary to Loewe, and Chancellor
CaprIvi was so indiscreet that he exagger-
ated the speech lauding Loewe, which is
now gauged as its true value.

lions Of parties suffering defeat from his
presence. He represents tho pope and
opposition to him is opposition TO tho pope.
He was sent directly by Leo to spenk to the
archbishops the mind of Leo on the school
question. He did it. This question had
for sometime agitated the Church in
America, and the ory went up ceaseiessly
that Rome should speak and re-establish
peace. Rome resolved to do so and the
address of satolli was put in his mouth by
the pope before leaving Rome. II since has
been reported to the pope verbally snd re-
ceived his approval. This is q positive,
undeniable fact The controversy 10 finally
settled.
Satolli also received the amplcst powers
to settle all disputes between bishops and
priests, In each case he is to have two
assistants. chosen from eminent members
of the clergy, and his decision ia to be ab-
solutely without appeal. The authority
with which he is invested is unusual, but
this shows that the pope puts unusual con-
fidence in him. There are nearly ninety
diooeses in the United States andsnumerous
church cases are awaiting settlement.
Some of them are very important and far
reaching. To maintain as heretofore the
court of last appeal in Rome is to render
very difficult and tedious proceedings lead
ing to any conclusion. Tho popesshas con-
ferred boon on all parties by placing, for
time at least a superior tribunal in
America. OF course no prelate occupying
himself see in America, however high
placed. could serve as judge in cases where
his brother prelates are entanged. Some
important cases are already before Satolli.
he has further mission to inform him
self accurately about American ecclesas-
tical affairs in general and report regularly
thereon to Rome. AS time goes on, new
emergencies arlsinR, he will receive other
specific powers, and the archbishop thinks
he will soon be invested with the title and
all the extensive powers of a regular dole
gate apostolic. The archbishop added that
Satolli's address on the school question
covered the whole ground: that to the
church and to her alone belong religious
instruction; but there is and can be no OBJ
lection that the state lay claim to busy it
self with the SECULAR part. There is no
room for the old accusation that the church
opposes or deprecatss the efforts of the
state to remove ignorance from the chill
drsn of the people. OF course, while and
where state schools are 80 conducted as to
prevent in practice the religious education
of the child. or to endanger its religious
faith, Satolli demands that Catholics, as
far as circumstances warrant, maintain
special Catholic schools, but he shows
plainly willingness that the church do
her share toward parable! action in virtue
of which religion and secular knowledge

The day before the fire two strangers had

just stopped to rest from his labors at the
