KNIGHTS OF LABOR.
Nineteenth Annual Convention
Opened at Washington Yesterday.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 12.-The
nineteenth annual convention of the
general assembly of Knights of Labor
began here today. The sessions will
continue about ten days, but all bust
ness transacted will be guarded with
the utmost secrecy. General Master
Workman Sovereign says the increase
of membership in the face of hard
times is exceedingly gratifying. One
of the important subjects to be dis
cussed will be the attitude of the men,
bers of the order towards political par
ties during the next national cam
paign.
At the close of the morning session
Mr. Sovereign said that questions ON
credentials had been under considera-
ton and were not yet settled. These,
he said, did not involve important
issues, but arose mainly on whether
credentials should be received pending
an appeal to the grievance commit
tee The master workman's rapport
and other general business will not be
taken up until the credential questions
are settled and the convention fully
organized. Mr.. Sovereign's report will
be brief and mainly extemporaneous,
showing the present satisfactory con-
dition of the order
At the afternoon session the dis
cuSSicn on credentials was completed.
This clears the way for the reports of
the master workman and the eXecu-
tive committee tomorrow
AS yet no resolutions of Importance
have been introduced. 1t is expected,
however, that q, resolution as to Cuba
will be introduced with a view to hav-
ing the order express its sympathy
with the insurgents. Most of the bus
mess to be transacted relates to the
conduct of the assemblies. One propo-
sition is to have district assemblies
forward the per capita tax collected
from local assemblies, instead of hav-
ing the local bodies deal with the CEN
trail organization. Another plan is, to
provide recognition for knights living
in localities where there is no assem-
bly,. 1t is probable the meeting will
take steps to refute the report that the
order gives its recognitions to unions
made up of barkeepers or bartenders.

A Turkish View.

WASHINGTON, Nov 1.-THE Turk
ish legation at Washington received
from the sublime porte the following
telegram under yesterdays date:
The Armenian rioters of Zeitoun at
tackled the village of Tchoukour His
sar, killing thirty-fve Mussulmans,
carried away with them arms, cattle
and belongings of the Mussulman vii
layers of Dunghel and murdered the
secretary of the collector of zeitoun.
The wife and four children of this
functionary are missing. According to
fresh advices from Diarbekir the Ar
menians are alone responsible for the
recent disorders. which originated
solely by the rebels firing on the
mosques at the hour of prayer and by
their attacking in arms the Mussul-
mans. The fire which broke out at
Dfarbekir was started by Armenian in
cendiaries, for 80 per cent of the shops
destroyed, as also every article of
merchandise burned, belonged to the
Mussulmans.
THE vail of Adana advises US that
about 200 Armenians, disguised as Cir
cassians, attacked the Mussulman viii
lagos of zeitounbeli and Narl, commit
ting all sorts of depredations /"

Definite Information Lacking.

DENVER, Nov. IA special to the
Depublican from Rico, Colo. says: No
definite information can be obtained as
to the particulars of the murder Of
the two Ute bucks and one squaw in
the vicinity of Plateau creek, or Lost
canyon, and fears are entertained Of
an outbreak of the Southern Utes, who
are in that part of the country. Grave
fears are entertained for the safety
of the settlers in that part of the
state, and inquiries have been made
for friends there and warnings sent
settlers to look to their safety and
return to Durango at the earliest pos
sible moment, as a serious outbreak is
feared among the Utes. who are off
their reservation. and it is thought
probable that the murder was pro-
voked either by slaughtering game or
the theft of stock by the Indians.

HIS FRIENDS ADMIT 1T.
Serious and piteous Was the Mis-

take Made By Lord Dunraven.
LONDON, Nov. 12.-Even Lord Dun
ravens friends now admit he made a
serious mistake in issuing the pamph-
let published in the Times in reply to
the report of the New York Yacht
club on the recent race. One of the
highest yachting authorities here,
Agent Leman, who is in constant
touch with the leading members Of the
royal yacht squadron, informed a rep-
resentative of the Associated Press to-
day that Lord Dunraven's action was
greatly regretted and generally con-
demned by yachtsmen.
The press, as a rule, has begun to
follow the lead of the st. James Ga
zette, which so strongly condemned
Lord Dunraven yesterday
The Globe says: '"The American feel
ing over the matter is not wholly rn-
warranted. To raise the question now,
when it was impossible to verify or
disprove it, is hardly polite or sports
manlike."
The Westminster Gazette also criti-
cizes Lord Dunraven, but the Pail
Mall Gazette defends him. The st.
James Gazette says: '%To bring up the
deliberate charge of foul play weeks
nfterward is altogether unfair and de-
plorably injudicious and unpatriotic
and will make more bad blood in the
United States than half dozen Cor
into or Venezuelan Incidents"
NEW YORK, Nov. IA local paper
prints "a statement from Captain F. P.
Weed, of Green's Landing, Me, the
man who selected the crew for the De-
fender. The statement is as follows:
Since reading Dunraven's report 1
have interviewed some twenty of the
Defenders crew, all honorable men,
and every one of them says there was
not a change made in ballast or trim
after the Defender was measured for
the race. When the crew left Deer
Isle to join the Defender I told them
they had an honorab BILE enemy to fight.
If I had said "You have a mad school
boy to fight" l should have come
much nearer the truth
In an interview with some of the
crew they testified that:
I'VE, the undersigned members of
the Defenders crew, wish to say that
there is no truth in Dunraven's report
in regard to change in ballast or trim
of the yacht Defender after she was
measured for the race. We are In
hopes that England will, next year
send true sportsman with lots of
sand in him to fight us for the cup.

A FEW MILLIONS SHY.
Report on the Cost of the Mica
raguan Canal.

raguan Canal.
NEW YORK, Nov. 13-A special to
the Herald from Washington, D. c..
says: Trustworthy information has
been received as TO the contents Of the
report of the commission which ex
amined into the feasibility and cost
and recommended a route for the
Nicaragua canal. The report is in the
it in connection with his work on his
annual message to Congress. The re-
port indicates that a canal across the
isthmus via the Nicaragua route is
entirely feasible from an engineering
point of view. The cost Of the project,
as estimated, is $110,000.000, but it is
stated that sum is too small by some
millions.
The commission was nearly three
months engaged in its survey work.
The route as proposed by the commits
sion is 173 miles long. or three or four
miles longer than that which the
canal company proposed. The COM
mission made surveys to the right and
left of the company's route and has
suggested some changes which 1t be-
lieves will be advantageous. The COM
missions waterway will be supplied
with locks. The San Juan river and
l-dhS A>iSoA as Gce "Aii w SiAPiOy coe
the former will require considerable
dredging. The lake is fifty-six and a
half miles across from the San Juan
to the mouth Of the Lajas. Some
dredging will be required on the west
coast of the lake, which is Shoal for
a distance of something like 1880 feet.
Brito will be the western terminus of
the canal, and the distance from this
port is a little more than seventeen
miles. The estimate has been made
that in order to complete the canal
which the commission proposes six
years will be required and in order to
finish within that time a force of 10000
men will have TO be constantly em-
ployed. The commission also went to
Panama and made survey Of the
route there and also refers to this pro-
ject in its report

event of the acqufttal of the prisoners
he be granted a reserve case with the
view of holding the prisoners in custody

The defense objected to this on ac-
count of the long Imprisonment to which
the Hyams have already been subjected

is considering Osler's request.

Killed by the Reds.

WICHITA. Kan, Nov IA special
to the Eagle from Ell Reno says that
John Williamson, who arrived there,
reported finding the charred remains
of a man in the Wichita mountains.
He had been killed by the Indians and
burned. Implements found near the
body indicate that he was a gold pros
pector. Nothing whatever was left to
prove his identity but the initials II
E. W." burned in the handle of
shovel. The Indians believe that there
is gold in the mountains, and a man
who goes there carries his life in his
hands. Scores of venturesome men
have been killed there in the past.

1t is believed in some Armenian
quarters here that the estimate of TO-
600 Armenians killed during the re-
cent massacre. as cabled to the Assoc
ciated Press, last week, may turn out
to be- considerably under the real total,
and that the sum may come nearer
$4,000.
Reports from Armenian sources place
the number of killed at Diarbekir at
over 1000, but this needs confirmation,
in spite of the fact that it is admitted
there has been terrible bloodshed, and
that large part of the town was
burned
