WASHINGTON, D. c., November 10
For some reason the employees about the
White House endeaYOred to maintain an
air OF mystery and secreSy regarding
the return OF President Cleveland from
New York this morning. It was so
when he departed; was so while he was
gone, and so it was that strange and
unwhOleSOme rumors began 10 circulate.
The majority Of the rumOrs had IL that
the President had gone 10 have surgi-
cal operation performed; that his jaw
bone was diseased. But II is scarcely
probable that an III man would travel
several hundred miles by night TO have
an operation performed when the sur
geOn could be brought to Washington,
and thus save the disagreeable night
journeys.
Immediately after the Presidents ar
rival ne retired 60 his private Office
with his secretary, Mr.. Thurber, aud
all visitors during the early morning
hours were denied admittance. The
Presidents appearance gave the lie
direct TO all the reports that have been
in circulation regarding his Ill health.
He was full OF vigor and looked as
robust as any time in his life. He be-
gan his work at the White House as il
much benefited by days rest from
executive toll. II was said at the White
House that the President desired 10
clear up the accumulated business this
morning before taking up some pend
ing appointments.

THE PLATE GLASS TRUST

Aas Gone to Pieces aud It's heaoquartefs
Havo Been Closed.
PIrTsBURG, PA, November 16.-The
National Plate Glass Association has
gone to pieces. Secretary d. E.
Wheeler, gave out the following to the
Associated Press this after-noon:'
1.-THE Plate Glass Association met in
Pittsburg to-day and held their last
meeting.
THE ASSOCIATION WAS FORMED
for one year and the time for which 1t
was formed having expired, owing to
financial situation of the country and
the light demand for plate glass, and
foreign competition, the manufacturers
decided net TO continue the association
longer. Therefore, its headquarters
in Pittsburg will be closed on and after
this day"
The association had a capital OF S10,-
600, 900 and was one OF the strongest
trusts in the country. Lately small
outside concerns have been cutting
prices and this, it is said, had something
to do with the disruption.

at Caterer George l.. bursts parlors
Yesterday, between the hours OF aoon
and O'clock. During the entire pro-
gress Of this most enjoyable sale the
porlors were thronged with fashion
able assemblage. The lunch, which en-
braced all of the wholesome suhstantials
OF the season, was an attractive feature.
and throughout the entire dinner hour
every table was filed with guests.
while those who came in late were cou-
PEELED to await their turns. However,
the wait was not tedious one, as the
young ladies' had an attractive stand
containing all kinds OF fancy work OF
the most artistic designs.
Visitors were shown to the confec-
tion table, where boxes Of candy were
on sale at an exceedingly low figure.
Throughout the parlors the decorations
were odd and unique, and brought out
the clever handiwork Of the ladies'.
The table arranged after Japanese
design, in charge of the Misses Cum
Minis, was an attractive feature. Seven
little girls. namely, Anna Cummins,
Margaret Cummins, Gertrude Paxton,
Bessie Harrison, Henrietta Harrison,
Mamie Hazlett aud Edna Ewing, all
arrayed in Japanese garb, proved quite

At the candy table Miss Nellie Frew

Lain, Jane Caldwell and Mae Belle
Hart.
At the fancy table were Miss Jessie

The affair throughout was most en-
joyabe, and 1t is safe TO say that the

mating two hundred dollars to their
credit after all expenses are paid. Mrs.
Judge PAUL, Mrs. j. w. Paxton Mrs.
w. F. Butler and Miss Martha Wright
are deserving OF especial praise for the
successful manner in which they man
aged the affair.

Justification of the boards course as fol-

justi6 6cation OF the boards course as fol-
lows.
THE past year has been one Of trial
to organized labor. When your board
has been appealed TO and asked for
their advice in cases OF despair or when
reductions Of wages have been proposed
oy employers. they have felt 1t their
duty to counsel cautious aud conser-
vative action, even in instances where,
in Justice, a demand ifor increased
wages, or the resistance Of a proposed
reduction would have been proper and
right. The steady stream OF immigra-
tion which, in spite Of restrictive leRis-
lation, continues to flow to the shores
of this continent, makes it compare
lively easy for employers to fill the
places OF striking workmen. In addi-
tion, labor has had this year to reckon
with the fact of fnaHcial panic and
an industrial depression. The cause OF
the panic is a question that IL would
be Improbable to here discuss.
Whether it was occasioned by the oDe-
ration OF the so-called Sherman act, as
some assert; to the uncertainty regard
ing tariff legislation, as others main
tain, or whether it was deliberately
planned conspiracy, having for It's OBJ
ject the doubling of the value OF the
worlds funded debts through contract
ing the worlds money, which would be
the inevitable consequence OF the de-
monetizstioh Of silver, as an increasing
number believe, need not here be dis
cussed."
Reference followed to the report of
the Secretary Treasurer and the falling
of of the per capita tax. This was as
scribed not to failing belief In the
orders principles, but TO the sheer ina
bility of members to pay their dues.

meutary evidences TO back up his charges
before the General Assembly tomorrow.
A strong effort is being made 10 save
the organization in order 10 make 1t pivot
in the proposed consolidation with other
labor organizations. That Mr.. Powderly
aims to be the head of the Amalgamated

One of the leading Knights said tonight
that the outcome of this assembly Will be
the beginning Of the greatest movement

whether or not Mr.. Powderly will be
the head of the movement he could not say,

on the above subject last night greatly
delighted his audience. He first gave a
brief history Of Delsarte his early life,
etc., tod what the Delsarte philosophy
Is, what 1t is not, and how II can be used
to advantage. The prejudice against
II does not arise so much from opposl'
tion to 1t as to the way 1t is presented.
From the charts presented be explained
the various states. all hinging on the
mental, the emotve and the vital. All
states OF the mind are plainly shown
by the movements OF the body.
One point made was worthy
the consideration OF anyone. The Del
sarte philosophy will stop all worrying.
1t Is foolish to worry. No we'll bal
anced person will worry. He urged on
all to stop worrying; to stop being fool
ish; stop being nervous. Do the best
you can. "Angels can do no more"
Then wait for results, but don't worry.
One thing is sure: II the Professors
rules are strictly followed we will all be
the better for the following OF them.
he will lecture tonight again. Subject,
