The Boycott Must Go.

One of the most important verdicts
affecting labor organizations and the
boycott was reached yesterday in the
Court of Common Pleas at Baltimore,
when George w. Lucke was awarded
$500 damages against the Clothing
Cutters and Trimmers' Assembly, No.
1907, of the knights of Labor, for prac-
tically enforcing a boycott against him
and securing his discharge from one oil
the largest clothing houses in Balti-
more. Mr.. Lucke is a first-class work
man, and was in the employ of the
New York Clothing House, on Balti-
more street.
One morning the managers and pro-
prietors of the establishment were sur
prised by a call from a delegation rep
resenting the Clothing Cutters and
Trimmers' Assembly. They stated the
object of the visit, which was to call
their attention to the fact that Mr..
Lucke was not q member of a
labor union, and demanded that
he be discharged. If his services
were continued, they said, the es-
tablishment would be put under the
ban-thit is to say, its nam would be
stricken from the directory of union
business houses, which meant that the
members of organized labor might
withdraw their patronage.
Lucke being a good hand, the firm
were anxious to keep him, and the man
himself was not willing to lose his em-
ployment, so he made application for
admission to the union. He was re-
jected, however, and subsequently
withdrew from the New York Clothing
Houses service.
Then he began suit againet the union.
At the first trial. in the Superior Court,
Judge Richie took the case from the
jury on the ground that it was not a
jury case, but Lucke took it to the
Court of Appeals, which decided that
there was cause for action on a differ
emily drawn declaration. Suit was ac-
cordingly again entered, with the result
of $500 in Lucke's favor. Messrs.
Marbury and Hodge represented the
plaintiff, ard Ex-Governor William
Pinkney Whyte the defendant. 1t is
understood that the verdict will be ap
pealed from.

The ANTI-TrLLMAN1TEs.-Th anti

THE ANTI-TILLMANITEs.- The anti
Tillman convention adjourned carly
yesterday morning without making any
nominations, the vote being 12Oagainst
and 104 in favor of nominating. Reso-
lutions passed demand of the State
convention, which meets to-day, the
adoption of the Chicago platform and a
declaration of loyal allegiance to the
democratic party; the reputation ofthe
action of the State convention of 1892,
which adopted the Ocala platform as
the principles of the democratic party
of the State, and that no nominations
by made of persons not in full accord
with the democracy, or who acknow-
ledge allegiance to the populists. 1t
was further resolved, that should the
convention fail to do as demanded, then
all true democrats are sbsolved from
obligation to support its nominees. An
executive committee was appointed 10
call the anti Tillman convention again,
should the State convention fail to carry
out its demands. The State convention
meets to-day, and John Gary Evans
will be its nominee for governor. The
convention will, In all probability, again
adopt the Ocala platform, though some
are willing to meet the conservatives
halfway. That there will be two
tickets, both claiming to be democratic,
is regarded as almost certain.

South Carolina Democrats.

COLUMBIA, s. c., Sept. 10. The State
democratic convention met to-day at
II o'clock with full delegations from
every county present. The convention
will not make nominations until this
afternoon. There is much interest
conferred as to what the convention will
do in reference to a platform in view of
the demands made by the anti-Till-
NANTES. The platform has been de-
cided upon, but has not been read. 1t
reafirms the State platforms of 1890
1892, which were the same as the Ocala
platform. 1t also endorses the Chicago
platform, but demo unces Cleveland for
not adhering to it. The nominees will
very likely all favor the ocala demands
and the anti Tillman convention will
be- recalled in 8 short time and put out
a ticket against the nominee of the con-
vention.
The portion of the platform denounc-
ing Cleveland is as follows "We de-
ounce the action of President Cleve-
land in appointing republicans to office,

appointing as his subordinates a force
composed entirely of Senator Germans

who have even gone so far as to sup

ticket, in opposition to that of the reg

THE EIGHTH D1sTRIcT.-The Wash
ington correspondent of the Richmond

Dispatch says
1.-THE republicans have spread reports
to the effort that Congressman Mere
dith is likely to have a hard time to
pull through in his district. A lot Of
figures published here are about as mis-
leading us anything well could be. For
instance, it is stated that two years
ago, Turner, the populist candidate
against Mr.. Meredith, polled in the dis
trict 10,066 votes, and Mason, the can
didate this year of the populists, they
insist, will do fully as well. This
claim is simply ridiculous. Two years
ago there was no republican candidate
ia the district, and the bulk of the vote
given to Turner was cast by republi-
cans. lu the entire State two years
ago the populists did not poll quite
IL 1000 votes, and Mason at the coming
election, with three candidates in the
field. will not poll 1000 votes. His
candidacy really will not hurt either Of
the old parties, and Mr.. Meredith will
sail into Congress nee more by a very
handsome plurality, and perhaps a
clear majority over both McCaull and
Mason. The statement given to the
republican papers was largely the hope
of some of the people who flu nished
the information.
Pat. McCaull, it is believed, will not
poll the full republican vote in the dis
trict.
Mr.. Meredith's majority in 1892 Owe
Turner was 7,05S, and the district is so
largely democratic and the people are
so true to the party and its principles
that no black republican populist COM
bination can possibly defeat Mr.. Mere
dith, unless there should be fearful
apathy among the voters. And when
il comes to apathy, the republicans are
apt to suffer as much as the democrats,
for many of the republicans do not rel
ish the nomination of McCaull. If Gun
Gle Jake" Egeborn, of Culpeper, had
been nominated the republicans would
have given Mr.. Meredith a closer run
for the seat in the House,"
