LEADERS DENOUNCED.
Knights Of Labor Use Strong
Language.
GRAVE ACCUSATIONS MADE.
Warnings Sent OEt Against Sovereign
and Hayes.
THE ORDER is TO Be REORGlEIzED.
A General Meeting to Be Held in Columbus,
Chic, Next Month";. II. Quinn Is
Unanimously Reelected.

PROVIDENCE, R. l., Jan. 20.-A long-ex-
pected meeting of District Assembly SO,
Knights of Labor, was held in this city
this evening, and it resulted in the passage
of resolutions denouncing the high officials
of the organization, and cautioning work
men to beware of them. The attendance,
which included several knights from other
New England States, was unusually large.
District Master Workman Cannon began
the criticism of General Master Workman
Sovereign, claiming that the proclamation
during the Pullman strike and other er-
ratio moves were of the most foolhardy
character.
Edward McCaffery, delegate to the New
Orleans general conference from this as
sembly, made his report, which shows
that more than $4,000 members had
withdrawn from the order during
the year, the Philadelphia property
had recently been mortgaged and as no
official report of the financial condition of
the order had been made its exact status
could not be determined. He charged
Sovereign with having been responsible for
the Pullman strike, and said he used Debs
as tool. The following resolutions were
then adopted by unanimous vote:
To the members of the Knights of Labor and
the working people of America:
WHEREAS, Certain men, to wit. ]. R. Soy
ereign, John W. Hayes, NJ. J. Bishop, T. B. Me-
CURE, Henry B. Martin, J. NJ. Kenny and C. H.
French, claiming to represent the Knights OF
Labor, are endeavoring to collect money from
the working people of this country to support
themselves in idleness and to enable them to
barter with leaders of political parties for the
prestige which the order of which they are the
alleged representatives, is supposed to possess,
be it
Resolved, That as the power to lend influence
to trucking knaves whose aim is to barter the
sufferings of the members OF this order comes
from the membership that contributes its reve-
nues, and the best means of thwarting the
schemes of designing scoundrels is to cut off
their revenue, we pledge ourselves not to pay
another cent of tax to these alleged general
officers, and we call on all local assemblies in
the country to take like action.
RESOLVED That we caution all working people
in the United States to have nothing whatever
to do with ]. r. Sovereign or John W. Hayes,
whose only aim in the labor movement is TO
line their pockets.
Resolved, That the District Assembly 80
holds itself ready to cooperate with the vari-
Gus branches that are to meet at Columbus,
Ohio, in February next in an effort to reorgan-
ize the order.
The assembly then proceeded to elect
officers, and P. II. Quinn, who was de-
posed without a trial by the Sovereign
Hayes faction some few months ago, was
unanimously reelected district master
workman and chosen delegate to the ma
tional convention.

She appears to Hare Been on Unconscious
Tool of a StCiIsdLer.
CLEVELAND Ohio, Jan. 20.-There seems
to be no doubt that the woman arrested
here Friday night is. Mrs. Ella E. Adams
of 153 Goethe street, Chicago, as she
claimed. A gentleman who formerly knew
her in Wisconsin before the death of her
husband talked with her to-day. Mrs.
Adams says she came to Cleveland to ar
range for placing friend in one of the
hospitals. After her arrival here she was
called upon at her hotel by the man who
gives his name as Hager. He said he had
heard she had some mining stocks to sell.
He had been to her home IN Chicago and
learning that she was in Cleveland fol-
lowed her here. He told her he would find a
customer for the stock and Hager asked
her to send to Chicago for it. She got the
stock and Hager brought the customer to
her, but she refused to let the securities
go out of her hands until she had received
the money. That ended the negotiations
and the arrest of herself and Hager fol-
lowed. Mrs. Adams expects her son to
arrive from Chicago in the morning and
she has confidence she will be released
after her hearing tomorrow.

IN THE BRITISH MARKETS.
China q Good Customer, Especially for
All Grades of Cloth.


All Grades of Cloth.
MANCHESTER, Jan. 20.-During the first
half of last week the market was fairly
active for India and China. During the
latter half the India business was stopped
by record dip in the price of exchange,
but China continued buying good cloth,
that making buying. engagements well
into spring. Makers of India specialties
want orders. Many looms are idle.
LONDON, Jan. 20.-With an easy market,
partly due to French purchases OF consols
owing to the Presidential crisis, the stock
market was unusually active during the
past week, with a great increase in the
volume of speculation. The buoyancy
was equally felt in all the markets. The
French crisis had hardly any adverse
effect. Buying was no longer confined to
merely investment securities. The tone OF
the market for American railroad securi-
ties Yves better than for months past.
Reading and Union Pacific made frac-
tional declines, but all the others adj
yanced.

thirty feet deep, with almost perpendicular
walls. 1t is only barely possible that the

Dealing Nth Guatemala.
CRY OF MEXICO, Jan. 20.-Don Jacinto
Castellonos, the new Salvadorean Minister
to Mexico, arrived in this capital last even
ing. In an interview, Hon. Ignacio Maris-
cal, Secretary of Foreign Relations in the
Mexican Cabinet, said:
1.-The Salvadorean representative will be
received in no other capacity than as the
representative of the interests of his
Government. This means plainly that
Mexico will allow no meddling in the
Guatemalan affair on the part of Salvador,
Honduras, or any other of the Central
American republics which Guatemala has
been making such great effort to drag
into the dispute against Mexico"
Mr.. Mariscal said that the statement
that his communication to Guatemala was
in the form of an ultimatum was not cor
rect. 1t was definite statement from
Mexico of claims for indemnity and for the
completion of the surveys.

crew was another well-known smuggler.
The opinion has been general here that
there was opium aboard, but no one be-
lieves Claxton would have anything to do
with smuggling. He is certainly not a
man who would go on fibustering expe-
dition. If it had been desired to ship arms
on the Norma there would have been every
opportunity to get them aboard, as the
vessel loaded at an isolated place.

MoMENCE, Ill, Jan. 20.-An attempt to

detectives from Chicago, aided by the
Town Marshal and assistants, who, after a
fierce battle with the robbers, succeeded in
capturing Weedlove of Momence, who be-

two and possibly three others in the gang,
and they got away in the darkness. Later
one of the burglars, named Schaff, was
captured, and the detectives are in pursuit
of the others. Robberies in Momence have
been so numerous during the past few
months that the Chicago detectives had
been recently employed to ferret out the
perpetrators. The operative sent here
gained the confidence of the gang and
learned OF their plan to rob the bank last
night. Had they succeeded they would

they have declined the offer.
1t has all arisen out of the dissensions in
the Greco-Russian Church of this city,
which were briefly referred to IN .yester-
days CALL in connection with the dis
missal of the charge of assault to murder
against B. Bulaich, who had an encounter
with Gopchevitch on Montgomery street
On September IS last.
The dismissal of the case angered Cop
chevitch and caused great rejoicing among
his enemies. One of these is Michael
Brown, who keeps restaurant on the east
side of Polk street, between Suffer and
Bush. Browns real name is Tripckovlch.
He was one of Bulaich's bondsmen.
Last night Gopchevitch, accompanied by
his three brothers and five other friends,
went into, the restaurant. OF SkavelJa d
Radich, which is almost Immediately op-
posite Browns. While partaking Of their
supper Brown and friend crossed the
street and sat down at a table close to
Gopchevitch and his friends, Brown kept
up conversation in loud tone with his
friend, in which everything possible was
said to irritate Gopchevitch and make him
angry. Particular attention was PAID to
the dismissal of the case against Bulalch.
Gopchevitch and his friends, with Won
derful forbearance, kept talking among
themselves and did not take any notice of
the jeers and taunts thrown at them.
When they rose to leave the restaurant
Gopchevitch was ahead of the others, and
as he passed Brown the latter made use OF
vile expression and struck Gopchevltch a
blow in the face.
Gopchevitch pulled his revolver, and a
scene OF the widest excitement followed.
Friends and foes were mixed up IN a
tumble, and Brown ran across to his
restaurant, seized his revolver and rushed
to meet his hated rival. When he got to
| the middle of the street he suddenly
| changed bis mind and returned to his own
restaurant.
