The Knights Of Labor.

NEW ORLEANS Nov. 22-The Knights Of
Labor had busy session today. Resolu-
tons were adopted that each local as
sernbly shall make maximum scale of
wages. above the regular scale adopted by
the National Trades Assembly; that all
grievances and complaints must come up
in the local courts of the assemblies within
sixty days; that the legislatures of the
various states be memorialized to enact
laws providing for the creation of state
labor bureaus: that all trsdesmsn shall
affiliate with organizations of their own
trade; that in labor parades no fiags, ex-
cept the national colors, shall be carried,
and that plank be inserted in the knights
Of Labor preamble against gambling in
farm products or options. A resolution
making responsibilities to the general
assembly ineligible as officers was defeated.
The general assembly at its afternoon
session continued its work of rail-
reading business through, and it was
noteworthy that more time was spent
in unseating the Pennsylvania miners
delegation than there was in passing any
number of bills and resolutions. Among
other recommendations of consequence
and importance by the law committee,
was the one presented modifying the
constitution, where the past master work
man has the privilege of voting in the
general assembly. This clause was ordered
stricken out, and in future the past mas
ter workman will have seat in the enerai
assembly. but no vote. 1t was also de-
cided to admit walters in beer saloons and
restaurants. but not barkeepers. This
completed the report of the COM
mittee on laws. The committee on
the state of the order reported
the order to be in very
healthy condition. 1t was reported that
the carpenters of the AmaIgamated Asso-
citation and American Federation of Labor
were organized in war against the
Knights of Labor, and the latter desired
some assistance from the general
assembly. The appeal was laid before the
house and the vote was in favor of render
ing what assistance lay in their power to
give. The grievance committee and the
committee on secret work will make their
report tomorrow. Then the convention
will adjourn.

DUCEY TO CORRIGAN.
The Popular Priest Rebukes the
Tammany Archbishop.
AND REFUSES TO OBEY HIM.
Says the Catholic Church Has Lost
Great opportunity-He VIII Attend
the Lsxow Hearings.

New YoRx, Nov. 22--Rev. Father
Ducsy, of ST. Leo's church. tonight sent
letter to Archbishop Corrigan in answer
TO the letter which he received from that
dignitary few days ago. in which the
archbishop took him TO task for taking
such prominent part In the meetings of
the Lexow committee. In his reply to-
night. Father Ducey said:
az regret to have received this evidence
OF your excellency's want OF appreciation
of my persistent devotion and sacrifice in
the interest of truth. morality and re-
Iigion. For years / have felt that
you should be. next TO the Holy
Father now reigning, the greatest
factor for good in the whole Catho-
lie world. Unfortunately / am forced
to say that here in New York the
great power in the work for good and hu-
thrown to the wind and we are now reap
ing the whirlwind. I am not the only
man who believes and thinks the greatest
opportunity heaven has thus given to
the Catholic church since the days
of our Lord and his apostles
for good has been sacrificed in the
city of New York. Had the church
openly acted with courage in opposing the
corruption and corruptors of this great
city, the Catholic church would have been
glorified throughout the world. Now DIR.
Parkhurst has won."
Continuing, Father Ducey declares he is
surprised that Archbishop Corrigan should
be ''pained" at a course which has merited
the recognition of the most distinguished
citizens of the United States. He continues:
There is nothing in my course. now
that the election is over as you say. that
calls for q vindication of the sanctty of
the priesthood by you, so far as my con-
duct is concerned. l cannot see why /
should be commanded TO abstain from GO
ing to the sessions of the Lexow committee
without permission in writing from your
exceliency. / have given my word that
/ would attend the sessions of
this committee to its close when
not prevented by my duties. l know
full well that ! in no way trans
cend my rights as priest in my
interest in the Lexow Investigation. /
shall be greatly pleased If your excellency
will inform me under what canonical
rules you forbid my presence at any fur
