Mr. Rlaunt,. Rsport.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 21.-Secretary Gresh- am has decided to make public all the cor respondence and the report of James H. Blount, the special commissioner sent to Hawaii by President Cleveland to investi- gate the revolution which dethroned Queen Liliuokalani and the establishment of the provisional government. Mir. Blount arrived at Honolulu on March g. In beginning his report he calls attention to his reception by Minister Stevens, who, accompanied by a committee from the An nexation club, came on board the vessel which had brought me. He. informed me that this club had rented an elegant house, we'll furnished and provided with servants, and a'carriage and horses for my use; that could pay for this accommodation just what chose, from nothing up. He urged me very earnestly to accept the offer. l de- clined it and informed him that I should go to hotel" 1"
 MT. Blount says, in closing, that the na- tive race feel that great wrong has been done them and their queen The queen resigned under protest and did not believe indorsed. and he adds:
 Indeed, who could have supposed that the circumstances surrounding her could have been fore>een and sanctioned deliber- ately by the president of the United Statesi Her uniform conduct and the prevailing sentiment among the natives point to her belief, as we'll as their own, that the spirit of justice on the part of the president would restore her crown" That is the only thing in the nature of a recommendation made.

Only Mall. May Pn.r.

wILKEsBARRE, Pa, Nov. 20.-There Is no change in the situation on the Lehigh Valley railroad here. The tieup of the freight and coal traffic Is complete. Since 10 o'clock Saturday night not a single freight or coal train has passed over the Wyoming division of the road, and If the strikers are to be believed none will pass over until their grievances are adjusted.
 The strikers are not interfering with the running of mail trains, but they object to the company attaching passenger cars to such trains. They say that this must cease When the Philadelphia flyer pulled into the depot last night, she was not al- lowed to depart on her western trip until the passenger cars were detached. The train then proceeded on its way with mail cars only.

Excitement .. sarrs.

ELMIRA, N. Y, Nov. 20.-All the Lehigh freight trains that have reached Sayre since 12 o'clock Saturday night have been abandoned, and the yards are now filled with cars. The crews have simply desert ed their trains, and the strike includes en- gineers, firemen, conductors, brakemen and telegraph operators. It Is . mammoth tieup.
 At Sayre there has been great excite ment Five hundred strikers hung about the tracks all day Sunday. Two passenger trains were got through, but the strikers say they are the last that will run over the road until the trouble Is settled. There is much perishable freight now in the yards, and the other roads refuse to assist the Lehigh by helping it. No violence has yet been offered

A Systematic Strike.

BUFFALO, Nov. 2o.-A trip through the Lehigh yards at West Buffalo revealed nothing of a riotous character. It was learned that the engineers and operators will be ordered out first and that the strike is now only in its incipiency. The five or ganizations comprising all the men on the road, except the switchmen who are not federated, will stick together. If the or deriug out of the two classes of employees named Is not sufficient to tie up the road, others will be called out It Is predicted that by tonight not a wheel will be turn ing on the Lehigh between Buffalo and Philadelphia.
 BUFFALO, Nov. 21.-One of the local leaders of the Brotherhood of Engineers said today that he believed the strike on the Lehigh road was the result of an at- tempt on the part of the Vanderbilts to gain control of 1t. It is not likely that Buffalo will be seriously affected by the strike during the first week. The strike will be confined to the Lehigh for the pres ent. When that road Is effectually tied up from end to end, the strikers hope to re- ceive concessions and perhaps win all they have set out to accomplish. If, however, the officials remain obdurate, and if especi- ally the Lebigh business Is handled by other roads, there will be a pretext to call out men on other lines In that event the roads most likely to be affected will be the New Jersey Central, Lackawanna and West Shore. In view of the Ann Arbor and Michigan Central decision it is doubt ful whether the men on other lines will promptly obey call to go out In that case the court held that 1t was against tho law for men on one road to go on a strike to help the men on another and that such an offense was conspiracy.

THE OLD FRIENDS.

The old friends, the old friends We loved when we were young, With sunshine on their faces 1S And music on their tonguel " The bees are in the almond flower, The birds renew their strain, But the old friends, once lost to us, Can never come again. The old friends, the old friendsl Their brow Is lined with care; They've furrows in the faded cheek And silver in the hair; But to me they are the old friends still In youth and bloom the same As when we drove the flying ball Or shouted in the game. The old men, the old men,
 How slow they creep alongi How naughtfly we scoffed at them In days when we were youngl E. Their pressing and their do2ing, & Their prate of times gone by, 5L Their shiver like an aspen leaf If but a breath went by. But We've are the old men now, Our blood is faint and chill; We cannot leap the mighty brook Or climb the breakneck hill. We maunder down the shortest cuts, We rest on stick or stile, And young men half ashamed to laugh Yet pass us with a smile. Oh, weary, weary drag the years AS life draws near the end, And sadly, sadly fall the tears For loss of love and friend. But we'll not doubt there's good about In all of humankind; So here's a health before we go To those we leave behind!

The Strike Complete.

JERSEY CITY, Nov. 21.-Quiet reigns in the yards of the Central railroad here. Hardly striker is to be seen, and scarcely a workman is anywhere about the big freight department. The strike on the Lehigh Valley road is now complete. The men at Jersey City had no grievance what ever, or at least they say they had none, but that they simply quit under orders from the Federated Order of Trainmen, under the superintendence of which the strike has progressed all along the line of the road.
 Hardly a wheel turned over the tracks in the Central yards yesterday. But one shunter was needed to transfer the various trains of freight cars which have been pill ing up since Sunday morning. The rail road officials claim that they will make no effort to continue the freight business, and that they are not worried just at present in regard to the outcome of the trouble. Several hundred men are now out of em- ployment of their own free will in Jersey City and because of their sympathy with the order.

May Deport the Queen.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 20.-A newspaper correspondent at Honolulu sends the fol- lowing, which was written few hours be- fore the steamer Australia left Honolulu for San Francisco on Nov. II:
 The new minister has made no sign as to the Cleveland's policy in regard to us, but he gives mysterious hints of some uu- pleasant duty yet to perform. What this is we cannot learn. I know that the gov ernment has received nothing from him up to the steamers leaving, either officially or otherwise.
 The paper also contains the following interview with H. w. Severence, ex-United States consul general at Honolulu, who ar rived here on the Australia:
 What will the provisional government do when demand is made that the queen be restoredP
 Mir Severance replied, "They will prob ably at once cancel the exequatur of the minister making such an absurd demand and cause him to return to this country"
 And as to the queenW
 "Oh, she will have been disposed of"
 "What do you mean-that she will have been killed"
 No, nothing of the kind" said Mir. Severance, There will be no bloodshed She will be out of the country. She will have been deported. This move was con- templated, and it was even spoken of in the newspapers, but it was considered inad- visable, for then it was believed that the great United States would listen to reason and such harsh treatment would not be necessary. The provisional government stands ready to carry out the suggestion the moment it seems necessary for the safety of the powers that now rule the island"
 What effect will the letter of Secretary Gresham have on the governments action when 1t reaches Honolulu"
 MT. Severance said, ''I should not be sur prised were the queen deported the next day u

 One of the leading Knights said that the outcome of this assembly will be the be- ginning of the greatest movement for or ganization of labor that this country ever saw. Whether or not MT. Powdsrly will be the head of the movement he could not say, but he did not think that any one man would again possess the power once en- joyed by Mir.

Povderlr. Ambition. Plan.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 1S.-The fourth day of the Knights of Labor general assembly was the hvliest yet. General Master Work man Powderly made scathing denCn- citation of the methods of certain men in the order and general denial of the charges made by Secretary Treasurer Hayes. He talked for long time about the state of the order and its future pros pects- A committee was appointed to con- fer on the amalgamation idea, and it held secret session.
 A meeting was held for the purpose of considering ways and means for the amal- gamation of all the existing labor organiza- tions.

 Those present are said to represent 8 membership of from 750, 900 to 1000, 900. The result of the meeting will depend upon the action the general assembly may take, but as the meeting was attended by repre- sentative Knights close to Mn Powerly 1t is claimed that the general assembly will favor the movement of amalgamation.

THE LEHIGH TIEUP.
THE STRIKERS SAY THEY WILL STOP
 EVERY WHEEL ON THE ROAD.
Only Mall Cars Allowed to Go Out of Wilkes barre-A Big Blockade of Freight Cars at sayre, Pa--No Violence Has Yet Been Reported.

Been Reported. ...
 PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 70. Reports re- ceived by the general grievance committee 1t the Bingham House indicate that the Lehigh Valley railroad strike is of much graver nature than the railroad officials are willing to acknowledge.
 Vice President Theodore Voorhees, stated that his information was to the effect that all trains on the road were moving. The only desertion from the ranks of the em- ployees, so far as he had learned, were two telegraph operators, several fremen and one or two engineers. The small number of men who had quit on account of the re- fusal of the company to reinstate dis charged operator had not hampered the road to any considerable degree. When questioned as to the alleged omission of certain clauses or paragraphs In his official bulletin posted along the line last sum- mer, which is said to have stated the com pany would respect certain alleged rights of the employees, he denied the assertions In the most emphatic manner.
 Calls Wilkins a Liar.
 Tell MT. Wilkins, with my compli- ments," he said, "that he lies when he says any such admissions have been made. We do not apprehend much If any trou- ble from now on, as 1t does not appear to be as much of a strike as one might be led to believe from tho manner in which the men have acted"
 When Chief Wilkins, who Is chief of the grievance committee, was informed of Vice President Voorhees, statements, he said:
 "We have documentary evidence to sus- tain us In our statements, and will say fur ther that most heartily return the com pliments of Mir Voorhees, which have been transmitted to me- Never at any time have we asked the reinstatement of MT. Hughes, the discharged operator. But when he (Voorhees) was asked to receive the committee, he exclaimed, Ask me to do anything in reason, but do not ask the company to back down from the stand it has taken
 Chief Wilkins has received congratula- tory teleRranis from lodges of railway em- ployees of the Reading and Pennsylvania lines, pledging them moral and financial support in their strike.
