OF Minneapolis, a member Of the general
executive board of the knights of Labor,
was in this city yesterday for the purpose
OF settling differences between local as
semblies. He allowed himself to be in
terviewed by reporter. Two hours after
the interview was printed Martin was ar
rested at the instance of T. V, Powderly,
ex-general master workman of the
knights, who alleges that Martin libeled

Interview of which Mr.. Powderly com
plains is as follows:
MIR. Powderly has been suspended from
the knights of Labor for refusing to turn
over to his successor, j. II. Sovereign. the
property of the order in his charge This
paraphernala relates to the secret work
OF the organization, books, documents aud
other articles, all of which are specified in
the correspondence which has passed de-
manding that the property be turned over.
DO not know what reasons were given by
Mr. Powderly for not turning over the
property to the order, but they were not

Mr.. Powderly claims that he turned

IN SENATE AND HOUSE
Senator Tsller's-FutiIe Attempt to XIII
the Tariff Bill,


WASHINGTON, May Ex-senator Cor
mans speech was the feature of yester-
days session of the senate. Mr.. German
and Mr.. Brice have been credited by the
opposition with the joint authorship OF
the compromise" amendments which
consolidated the Democratic side, and Mr..
German especially has been subjected to
much criticism both in and out of the sem
ate. His speech, replying in measure to
the attacks that have been made upon
him, explaining the necessity for the COM
promise and defining the theory upon
which the modified bill now before tho
senate was constructed, attracted intense
interest. The speech was prepared care
fully and delivered from manuscript,
thing in itself very unusual, as Mr.. Cor
man heretofore has always delivered his
speeches without notes. The speech was
not devoid of drastic comment on the
course OF the other side 1t was regarded
as an exceedingly able exposition Of the
position Of the conservatives.
Mr. Gorman's speech furnished texts for
the Republicans for the remainder of the
day. His statement that a majority of
the senate would support the bill was put
to the test by Mr.. Teller, whose purpose
was to smoke out" any latent opposition
on the Democratic side. Mr.. Germans
statement was justified by the vote. how.
ever, as the Coloradesenator's motion to
lay the tariff bill on the table was met by
an unbroken Democratic front. Both
