CHICAGO, Feb. l6.--J. B. Sovereign,
grand master of the Knights of Labor,
has written sensational letter to The
Industrial Advocate. with Private Dali
zell's exhortatien for war with a for
eign nation as his text.
He declares secret revolutionary So
cieties known as the Iron Brotherhood
and the Industrial army are being or
ganizen in every part of the country,
with their members leagued together to
resort to civil war as means Of obtain
ing remedies for the populace which
they cannot secure by the ballot. He
deprecates Private DalzelPs talk as be-
ing in q tone which might tend danger
ously, to fan this sentiment into an open
fame but asserts that should revolution
come he will not be "among the cow
ards now on the side of the plutocrat
classes"
Mr.. Sovereign devotes considerable
space to q history of two secret revolu'
tionary orders known as the Iron
Brotherhood and Industrial Army, now
being formed in this country.
In conclusion, Mr.. Sovereign fires Q
parting shot at Mr.. Dalzell by warning
him to desist from recommending for
eign war as relief to the people. One
word, he says, in favor of war with 9

BETTER WITHOUT RECOGNITION.

Harmon So Says of the Cuban Rebels In
Arguing Three Friends Case.
WASHINGTON, Feb. i6.-The United
States supreme court has heard argu.
ment in the case of the United States
vs. the steamer Three FL Z ids, on the
motion of the attorney general for a
certiorari TO the circuit court of appeals
for the Fifth circuit, to bring the case
to the supreme court, the steamer hav-
ing been libeled for condemnation on
the charge of violating the neutrality
laws controlling the relations between
the United States and Spain.
The defendants attorney argued that
as the government had not recognized
the beliigerency of the rebels, the law
did not apply, wherein it forbade expe.
ditions to a "colony, district or people"
in war with foreign power.
The government argued that sufficient
recognition had been accorded for this
purpose, in that state of war had been
recognized.
Attorney General Harmon said that
so far as formal recognition was con.
cerned, he claimed that the insurgents
were better off without it. He closed
with an appeal for the observance of
the neutrality laws and urged that con.
gress had provided abundant means for
their enforcement.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Harmon's
argument the court adjourned without
announcing any opinion until the first
Monday in March.
