OF LABOR.
The New Officers of the Organization
Have n Hard Task Before Them.

Have n Hard Task Before Them.
NEW DIRK Dec. I'm a letter to the
World, reviewing the history of the Knights
of Labor. ex-General Master Workman t.
V. Powderly writes as follows concerning
the order:
In no way has the order of the knights
OF Labor accomplished so much good as In
the education of the citizen in his rights and
duties. The strike is a relic of a bygone
berbaric age. 1t had its origin thousands
of years ago, when the striker was a war
rior who took the field when the strike be-
gan. 1t has survived because men have not
condition of their neighbors. So intricately
are our interests interviewer that no strike
of any Importance can be entered upon with
out inficting injury on others not directly
concerned In the controversy.
"Of the results of the session just closed
and passing into history the friend of the
and misgivings. The proceedings have been
characterized by a somewhat reckless dis
regard for law, rule, precedent and expert
ence. That appreciation of the condition of
our members in isolated sections of the
country which so particularly marked the
deliberations of preceding sessions of the
General Assembly was lamentably absent
from the session of 1893. BoycottS without
number were levied without care, delibera-
ton or thought of future consequences.
Long-established customs and usages have
been lightly set aside. The wishes of local
assemblies were disregarded in transferring
them from one jurisdiction to another.
Taking it altogether the dignity and deco
rum which prevailed in other sessions of
the body could be recalled in painful
contrast with this. Could the rank and file
of the order have occupied positions where
they could witness the acts of the repre-
sentatives they would certainly ~disapprove
of their methods of e~nacting legislation as
well as of the legislation itself.
ut is not in its General Assembly that
the Order of knights of Labor is strongest;
we must search for it's real strength and
energy in the hearts of it's members and
their devotion to it's principles. In the acts
Of tho Officers inst entering nn0n their
duties We will find cause for rejoicing or
sorrow, as they are successful or otherwise.
They have before them no light or pleasant
task and will require the confidence and
inspiring aid Of the whole membership"

DE MELLO'S MISSION
The Rebel Admiral Probably
Searching for Brazilian Ships.
He Succeeds in Leaving the HarbOr of
Rio Despite the Fire from the Forts
-PeixOtO Not Assassinated.

LONDON, Dec. IAN official dispatch has
been received by the British government
saying that Admiral De Mello, on board the
flagship A~quidaban, which was accom-
panied by an armed merchant vessel, sue
ceeded in forcing his way out to sea at
midnight last night, in spite Of the heavy
fire directed upon these two ships by the
forts at the entrance of of the bay. A Brit
ish gunboat followed the Aquidaban TO sea,
with the intention, it is believed, of being
present at the future naval operations,
which may include a battle at sea between
the ships of the rebel admiral and the YES
sells being sent to reinforce President Peix-
OTTO from New York. 1t is also said that the
commander of the British gunboat has or
ders to interfere should the rebel admiral
IN any way modest vessels flying the Brit
ish flag.
A dispatch to the Exchange Telegraph
Company, received to-day, says that there
is no truth in the report that President
PeiXoto, of Brazil, has been a~ssassinated.
The dispatch adds that President Peixoto
to-day was engaged in repairing dangerous
breaches made in the forts and in the
works thrown up ashore. The dispatch con-
firms the report that Admiral Mello has
left Rio de Janeiro with a portion of his fleet
in order TO intercept the vessels which
President PeiXoto expects to reinforce him.
1t is added, however, that there was some
desperate fighting between the rebel ships
and the forts at the entrance of the harbor,
which still remain loyal to the government.
The fire of the forts, chief of which is
Fort Santa Cruz, was so well directed that
the rebel ships had much difficulty in cross
ing the bar, and only did so after Admiral
Mello's flagship had been severely dam
aged. After leaving Rio de Janeiro the
rebel admiral was seen to steam away i'm a
southerly direction, but there are people
who believe that this may have been only
a ruse de guerre, and that the course of the
admira may have been changed as soon as
he was out of sight OF land. This is all the
more likely, as the admiral had previous TO
his departure announced his intention of
putting to sea in order TO intercept the YES
sells coming TO the assistance Of President
PeiXoto. The admiral is reported to be
in no way scared by the reported power of
the dynamite gun mounted on board one
of the vessels fitted out in New York har-
Dor, as it is said that the range of that gun
Is limited to about a mile. Mello has taken
with him a number OF fast steam launches,
which, it is understood. will be used in the
battle that is expected to take place be-
ron. Admiral Mello is said to be much
more concerned about the fast torpedo
boats purchased at Eblingin, Germany,
tran he is about the two vessels fitted out
in New York, which are looked upon as
being little more than experimental play

to approach the latter unawareS.

EricssOn's Destroyer.

NEW YORK, Dec. Lowing to the fog
which hangs over the bay to-day, the trial
trip was not made of the Ericsson boat
Destroyer that has been fitted out for the
Brazilian government. Should the weather
be propitious the trial will be made to-
morrow. The Destroyer took a short spin
to test its engines and gearing yesterday.
In the preliminary squirt the jets We're ex-
Derimented with. This is an appliance
which elects water either from the port or
starboard quarter and is designed to man
euver the boat rapidly when it is desired
to get her in or out of range. One test
made yesterday with the hydraulic steer
ing apparatus showed its effectiveness.
Without causing the boat to move back
ward or forward the jets forced her stern
TO and fro as If il were moved by some I'M
seen giant hand. This apparatus is con-
trolled and operated from the small turret
in which the gun is placed, and aids in Sc
curing aim. The vessel which will tow the
Destroyer has been chartered. 1t is an
nounced that the Destroyer will be taken
on as far south IS the West Indies by the
towing vessel and will then be turned over
to the Nictheroy. which will tow her the
rest of the distance. Approaching the Bra
lillian ports she will be manned, supplied
with ammunition and turned loose on her
own account. She will, however, remain in
company with the Nictheroy as long as
possible. using the dynamite cruiser as u
base of supplies.
