To All labor organizations men and Brothers the night August 8 a strike began the new York Central amp Hudson River Railroad involving about eight thousand men in the employ the said Road who were me a Bers a great labor organization known As the knights labor. The reason set Forth by t. V. Powderly chief executive the order May be summarized As col lows the peremptory discharge Between fifty and sixty men employees the Road and members the knights labor because they were knights labor without giving them any reason whatever for the discharge. Prior to the strike the men involved s night through the representatives the order to have their grievances adjusted but their Appeal b Ling disregarded a strike was inaugurated. At this juncture t. V. Powderly general master Workman the knights labor entered upon the task a lusting the differences and making such arrangements As would result in an Honor ble inca e Between the employees and the officials the Road but his efforts were unavailing. . Powderly. Comprehending Tho purpose Walter Webb third vie 1 president the company to make War upon the knights labor and ultimately upon All labor organizations represented his Road sought a conference with the supreme Council the United order railway employees. The request . Pow Derly was granted to the extent that four members the Council met him in the City Buffalo. Viz f. P. Sargent Gran 1 master the brotherhood locomotive firemen and president tin supreme Council g. Howard grand chief the by Ither Lwood railway conductors an 1 vice preside it the supreme Council s. E. Wilkinson grand master the brotherhood Railroad trainmen and Frank Sweeney grand master the switchman s Mutual Aid association. At the conference with . Powderly at Buffalo tort members the supreme Council became satisfied that the officials a he Road by every c mid ration fair and honorable treatment labor organizations should meet . Powderly and adopt some just plan for the adjustment the grievances the striking employees. This conclusion having been reached the members the supreme Council in response to the request . Powderly extended their journey to new York City to Aff it re us h Aid was in their Power to Brin r about a settlement Between Walter Webb third vice president the company the official having full authority in All matters pertaining to the strike and t. V. Powderly general master Workman the knights labor having the authority to negotiate such arrangements As might end Tho dispute. An interview having hem secured . Powderly sought to have the men discharged heard in their own defense in the presence . Webb and himself. This fair proposition was refused. . Powderly proposed arbitration which was also refused. There were other propositions made by . Powderly. Having for their object the honorable settlement the trouble All which were refused by . Webb. The members the supreme Council while in Buffalo and the City new York had ample opportunities to thoroughly inform themselves upon All matters concerning the strik it. They saw and heard both sides. They appreciated the Gravity the situation and Dompreh n Lin the impending consequence a to labor Organiza Lions deemed it advisable to Convene the Suprema Council for deliberation and such con delusion As facts should warrant. In response to the order f. P. Sargent president the supreme Council that body was convened in Terre haute ind., in August 23 and remained in session until noon the 25th. In making their report to the Council the members who went to new York to Confer with Powderly found All the stat m its made by him fully corroborated by the facts. In an interview with . Webb he refused to entertain any proposition looking f settlement the difficulty. He would not arbitrate any question n a make any explanation Concession what Ever with regard to the discharged cml it yes. Lie claimed the right to discharge employees at will without seeking explanation giving to the victims has Power any reasons for his despotic action. 11�?o would m Mage his r and to Sui himself without reference to any rights claimed by it employees Uny rights claimed by labor organizations to meter Torrin the matter to protect their members. The Council having heard the statements its members who had visited new boric for the purpose ascertaining the True condition affairs exhaustively discussed every important proposition and arrived at the conclusion As follows first that the position the knights labor As set Forth by t. V. Powderly general master Workman and the general executive Board the knights labor meets with our unqualified approval. Second that the course pursued by h. Wal Ter Webb towards . Porte by and the knights labor notwithstanding his Deela rations t it the contrary evinces a purpose to disrupt and destroy labor organizations the new York Central amp Hudson River Railroad As was done by Austin Corbin the Philadelphia amp Reading. Third that the policy ii. Walter Webb la despotic to an extent that outrages every Prin Ciple american citizenship and if generally adopted would if successful reduce american workingmen to the degraded condition serfs. Fourth that ii. Walter Webb by the employment Pinkerton thieves thugs and murderers vile wretches from the slums and Broth Els new York and other cities to kill work in men because they dared to protest against his Rule and strike for their rights is guilty a crime such enormity As will associate to the name h. Walter Webb forever with those who dressed in a Little Brief authority have used their Money to secure Power to degrade their fellow men. Fifth that the efforts now being put Forth by Walter Webb to destroy the knights la in View the foregoing facts the supreme Council puts upon its record its unanimous and unqualified approval the strike the new York Central amp Hudson River Railroad for the cause set Forth by t. V. Powderly As also the efforts Mado by . Powderly to bring the strike to an honorable termination. In this general expression approval the action the knights labor the course the vice president is As unequivocally condemned. The a Power the supreme Council in the matter the strike has been exerted to Aid the knights labor to secure the recognition their order by the officials a Rich and powerful corporation to secure for workingmen the victims autocratic Power a hearing and to perform such Ter kindly offices As were proper under the circumstances demonstrating sympathy and Good will thereby aiding the knights labor to bring the St Ike to a close upon principles right and Justice. In this the Council met with failure owing to the autocratic attitude h. Walter Webb. It now becomes necessary for the supremo Council to say that owing to the fact hat the order the knights labor is not a member the federation railway employees the Laws the supreme Council do not permit its doing More than it has done to Aid the knights labor and its inability to participate otherwise in the strike is now known and Apreci at cd by Powderly. In conclusion the supreme Council attests its High appreciation the manliness the knights labor employed the new York Central Road in struggling to maintain a principle sacred to every Workingman the continent. And to All men who love Justice and Hope for the Triumph right Over wrong As flagrant us Ever stained the pages history. Frank p. Sargent. The following1 dispatch was sent last evening by .

Powderly said that it was the first intimation he had received such action but declined to talk saying that it would not be policy for him to make any comments upon it until officially notified. He did not seem to he very much surprised downfall at the result hut went to his supper in Good spirits. Local labor leaders however looked very glum and Wero evidently much displeased at Tho action Tho Council. A monster mass meeting striking employees was held at Tho Academy music last night Edward j. Leo presiding. the stage Wero All Tho members the grand body Tho knights labor including . Powderly who was received with a perfect tumult applause. He cautioned moderation in speech and action. The Striko was already won and to proclaimed it a Victory now. No Man could say that Tho cause was wrong. Justice was Tho Side Tho men and with Justice came Public sentiment and that was what was wanted for some Day in the near future that Public sympathy would Knock at the state Capitol and show that Tho state had acquired Tho rails the state through this strike. At yesterdays meeting Tho leaders and the knights District Assembly 245 Tho Twenty men examined Wero Elioso who were discharged. All them said that they Wero threatened with discharge if they did not leave the knights labor. Superintendent Bissell told one Man that to was discharged for orking against Tho interests Tho Oad afterwards saying that that meant a ing a Knight. .

Walter Webb by the course he has pursued towards the knights labor and the representatives labor organizations has shown a total disregard those principles citizen sovereignty dear to every7 american worthy the name and considering Only his Money Power and the corporate Power the company he repress its his acts which speak louder than his words say in the language w. H. Vanderbilt once the autocrat the new York Central a the Public be seventh. H. Walter Webb seeks to support his arrogant attitude towards workingmen and labor organizations by assuming that the new York Central Railroad is private property and that his acts in the treatment his employees Are in no sense a matter Public concern that he can with impunity discharge men and remand them to idleness and poverty and Render them homeless wanderers without giving any reason explanation whatever for his conduct disregarding the fact that the corporation for which he plays autocrat is a thing created by Laws in the making which the men he seeks to degrade have a voice which once unified a will bring his corporation to the bar Justice where his millions and the other millions he represents will cease to be potential in directing au��liepsj2l right varied and interesting.

New York aug. 25.�?master Workman Powderly saturday night gave out another manifesto in the shape an a open letter to ii. Walter Webb this is Tho document a i see that you have at last ventured to break the Long silence that sealed your lips in relation to the causes which led to the discharge the fifty sixty employees Tho new York Central railway. Your alleged explanation is even less creditable to you than the silence it has broken and does not in any Way excuse the stand you have taken. Your statement is eminently worthy a Man who can see no cause for investigation in cases drunkenness incapacity breach duty and insubordination. Let me quota your exact words a the company has discharged men irrespective their membership in the order the knights labor for drunkenness incapacity breach duty insubordination and for Lack sufficient work to employ them and it will continue to do so whenever proper occasion a a the knights labor hate never questioned your right to take such action As is outlined in that statement. Our order is As much interested in the maintenance discipline As you can possibly be. You Are inordinately careful in the Eho Ico words for you to say a the company has discharged men irrespective their membership a Etc. You do not say the company discharged any one the fifty sixty whose eases Are in dispute. You May have referred to them you May have a 1 reference to the discharge employees who were forced out the service the company ten years ago and who did not belong to the knights labor. All these men have the right to know whether they were discharged for cause. You can net assert with any degree accuracy that anyone these men was dismissed for the cause you set Forth. You must depend Tho statements made to you by your subordinates your superintendents and John Briggs one those men . Powderly says is not worthy and a Tho poor labourers have to the Boss several dollars each month in order to win favor from the Man whose statements you lean when asserting that you have Tho right to discharge a Man for any one a dozen causes without telling him which one applies to . Powderly continues a i have yet to learn the reason Why your simple word based hearsay should stand unquestioned that it should have any More weight than that an honest Workingman. For from five to Twenty years the discharged men were in the employ the company you represent but it was Only when they joined Tho knights labor that you discovered that they were drunkards incompetent inattentive to duty. A you continue to Assort that there is nothing to arbitrate. Can you be so blinded by your associations and surroundings As not to realize that the travelling Public ought to know which these men is the drunkard which the inc Ltd Patent so that they May not tru to their lives in the hands such characters either in your service should you see fit to again employ them in the employ any other concern. In the Faeo the Plain statesmanlike words your Superior in office. Chauncey m. Depew you deny the right arbitration. Let me remind you sir that he does not did not sustain you in the position you have assumed. The first owners the Road were not averse to talking direct to the workmen. They relied them. They had Confidence in the men and that feeling was reciprocated by the employees. Then the corporation had the men and were in need Money now they have the Money and Don t care for the men. A men whose words i have never had reason to doubt make the statement to me that they were called up Bofo e their foremen superintendents asked if they were knights labor and when they frankly admitted that they Wero they were discharged. A it is not arbitration alone that you have to fused. First you have refused to arbitrate second to investigate third to face those men in my presence and to satisfy yourself whether your Foreman told you Tho truth fourth you have defied the Laws the state in ignoring the Board mediation and arbitration fifth you have infused to listen to the voice the Public which asks for simple Justice and cares nothing for the personalities either parties to the controversy and sixth and last you have shown that humanity has no claims upon you whatever. You have refused to satisfy the men whom you have discharged and that act will always stand to protest your claim to True manliness. A it. V. Powderly g. M. W., k. . Powderly was told that .

Ome things about which Republican organs girl Myers have nothing to Sav. It is not so vory Long ago that Tho Republican organs the North were making a great to do Over the attitude the Farmers Alliance in Tho South. They were extracting a Good Deal Comfort out the situation in South Carolina and out Tho general movement Tho part the Alliance in nominating now7 men for Tho various offices. They were predicting indeed that Tho Alliance was to be Tho wedge by which the South was to be divided and disorganized and they Wero so busily engaged in conjuring up this spectacle that they had no time to any attention to the movement the Alliance in the West and Northwest. The Groat trouble with the average partisan editor the North and East is the fact that to is densely ignorant the Drift and trend Public sentiment outside those who Are As partisan and sectional As he is and he seems to regard his ignorance As in the nature an accomplishments a phase special culture to he paraded in Public and to to proud . Facts and object lessons Are no importance whatever to the partisans and Section lists who edit the Republican organs. They seem to he utterly unable to appreciate the vitality the solid South they seem to he utterly unable to understand that the Unity the White people hero in the Alliance and out it with the Alliance and in spite it is above All merely political issues and that the people in order to preserve it and thus preserve themselves from negro domination under Republican manipulation will make any sacrifice and any Compromise. This is True All classes hut the partisan editors the North ignore this fact and pretend to believe that Tho South can to divided to the profit the republicans by the Ordinary political methods and issues. But their ignorance does not end Here. Whilo the Republican majority in Congress assisted by the organs have been hammering away at a Tariff Bill framed solely in Tho interests the monopolists and the manufacturers and intended As a bait for contributions to the corruption fund Tho Northern and Eastern Organ editors have wholly ignored the tremendous change that has been going among the Republic ans the West and Northwest the Tariff question. Tho papers these sections Aro full the subject. The alliances Tho different states have taken the matter up and in co operation with the labor organizations have made strenuous protests against a High Tari if. But it is chiefly by Means the Alliance that the reformation Public opinion has been carried . In Kansas Wisconsin Illinois and Nebraska the movement in opposition to Tho pet Detrino the Republican party has created a profound impression among the politicians but the Drift and tendency Tho masses Tho people have Boon entirely ignored by the Northern and Eastern organs and the new York Tribune to go no further is still nagging and abusing senators because they refuse to give merely a Hasty consideration to the Mckinley Bill. The Kansas senators Ingalls and plumb and senator paddock Nebraska have already demonstrated by their votes certain sections the Mckinley Bill that they have heard the news from Home. Tho 80,000 Alliance men in Kansas have already warned . Ingalls that to was sent to Washington to do something else besides making stump speeches against the South and recently the seventh District Republican convention the same state has adopted a platform endorsing . Blaine s reciprocity scheme and favouring a such reduction the Tariff As shall cheapen the products the factory and shop in ratio with farm Tho platform Tho convention absolves the nominee a from dictation Tho party caucus All economic Atlanta Quot institution. Practical economics. Its passage would mean a democratic Victory in 1893. The evening Post has repeatedly warned those Eastern Republican editors who Are loudly demanding the passage Tho Force Bill and the Mckinley Bill that they entirely mis apprehend the temper the Western republicans. We Aro glad to observe that Tho readers the new York Tribune have at last been permitted to get a hint the truth through a letter embodying a what a w7ido awake Republican observed in Tho Elijah r. Kennedy Tho writer this letter is Ono the most prominent republicans among Tho business men resident in Brooklyn and he has just returned from Quot Wisconsin where How had excellent opportunities for conversing with representative the result his inquiries As to Tho Force Bill is thus stated a there is not a very deep interest in the Lodge Bill. If it were now dropped nobody would to disgusted except such zealous partisans As will remain republicans in any event. Much Nitro might be said but i Content myself with stating a fact which i judge May to news in the As to Tho Tariff Bill . Kennedy explains that to went West with the impression that the republicans in Congress were quite Content to concede new York state to Tho democrats As a consequence the enactment Tho Bill in the shape in which it passed the House but that a the Bill was immensely popular in the agricultural states and would confirm our hold those he frankly confesses that he was the victim a delusion. A Well a he says. A i have talked with Tho Best judges the political situation in Wisconsin men also peculiarly Well informed affairs in the other Northwestern states and i deem it a duty to declare that the final enactment the Mckinley Bill in any thing Liko the shape in which it now stands will lose us the next Congress and will Render it next to impossible for the democrats to bungle and Blunder sufficiently to enable us to elect a successor to president .

Nevertheless i will continue to Pray tar the repose hi3 blessed the reports the Baltimore so Ohio company for the later months the fiscal year show a slight decrease in aet earnings hut for the first ten months they Are $1,000,090 in excess last year Why Trio Mckinley Bill will furnish no Relief to tie people at Large. One fact in practical economics should be fully understood and that is that where a Tariff system is the chief Rouco a nation s Revenue and is properly arranged it will necessity give All needed Protection to the industries a country. In order to do this however a few essential Points must be carefully observed 1. All raw material that can not to raised in the country should to free. 2. Raw material rained within Tho country should never have More than enough duty to counteract Tho hindrances in our own production. 3. The Tariff should be As Small As possible upon things that enter into family living. 4. The highest taxes should always he upon luxuries and the lowest upon comforts. Observe these initial rules and it becomes an easy matter to so apportion the Revenue As to afford incidental Protection to All american industries. Unfortunately Tho tariffs this country Are so arranged As to ignore every one these foundation principles there is a Large list free material it is True but in most cases they Are Ripon things which do not enter largely into our own productions. The single prominent exception is hides and Thi it is proposed to remedy by the Irno is Tion a duty As proposed in the me Kinley Bill. The Pennsylvania manufacturers say a give us free ores and we will sell our Iron and steel in the Woolen manufacturers say give us free Wool and Dye stuffs and we can compete with England and Germany in the markets the world. With free Wool and Dye stuffs american carpets can be Mado As cheaply As they Are in Europe. Most these wools that Are desired free Are kinds that Are not raised in this country and the Dye stuffs Are not raised hero at All. The present Tariff is Square in Tho interest the manufacturer and against those Tho people at Large. The Mckinley Bill will furnish no Relief. A Chicago Glebe. .
