A HOT DISCUSSION AT ROCHESTER
Resolutions Arc Alto Offered Oppos
ing the Imne of National Bank
Motet and Ucclniming That All
.Money Should lie Issued Exclusively
By the t'ovcrnmeutJlrr Sover
i-igo' Opponent.
Rochester. Nov. 12. -After the read
ing of minutes by Secretary Hayes, of
the Knights of Labor, this morning, a
resolution was offered that the election
f ofllcers be taken up at 3 o'clock this
nftt-rnooti. but it was defeated. - It Is
understood that Oeneral Master w ork
Miun Sovereign will be re-elected.
A resolution was adopted Instructing
the secretary to telegraph fraternal
greetings to the session of the supreme
council of the Farmers' Alliance in
progress In Indianapolis.
The committee reported favorably on
the adoption of the following amend
ments to section 2 of the constitution,
proposed by District Assembly 73, of
lirmiklyn, composed of street and ele
vated railroad men: "Provincial. State,
natlonul, trade and district assemblies
are sovereign In their own Jurisdiction,
under the general laws of the order, and
are empowered to decide all disputes
arising within their Jurisdiction, subject
to anpeal to the general assembly."
The amendment Is proposed so as to
plve the district assemblies a large
measure of home rule power, t'niler
the section as It now stands, appeals
nre made to the general executive
board.
Discussion of the proposed amend
ment occupied the whole seslson, but
no action was taken. There Is much
sentiment in favor of the amendment,
but it is tiiought that much time will
le taken up in discussing it this after
noon. INCOME TAX INPOKSF.D.
Among the papers presented to the
distributing committee last night was a
resolution indorsing n graduated In
come tax, which would apply to all In
comes, find would be laid with a per
rent that should ' Increase as the
amount of the Income Increased. The
committee on laws took the question
up, and there was a hot discussion, as
it was felt that this was a radical step
for the organization to take, but it was
finally indorsed. The Knights will do
Jill in their power to have such a ta,x
nacted lv congress, and for the falling
therein, they will use their Influence to
liave the tax incorporated into the plat
form of one of the great political par
ties. liesolutions have been offered oppos
ing the issue of national bank notes,
mid declaiming that all money should
be Issued exclusively by the national
government, and taking a dellnlte
Ptand in regard to many matters from
which the Knights have heretofore
stood aloof. It Is not known whether
they will Indorse free sliver or not.
The principal opponent to Mr. Sov
ereign for the ofllce of general master
workman is T. B. McOuire, of Amster
dam, a member of the executive board.
Mr. Sovereign Is strong with the West
ern and Southern delegates, while Me
nu ire Is strong In this State and New
England. Mr. Sovereign is somewhat
more radical than McOuire. He has for
some time favored the Knights taking
nn active part in politics, while Mc
nulre is said to be less in favor of the
move,
JERSEY GAME WARDENS' LUCK.
They Arc Said to Make t'ood Incomes
Out of Law Violations.
Somerville, N. J., Nov. 12. That the
game wardens of this state are well
paid for the arrests they make for the
violation of the game laws of the state
Is admitted by every one. In some of
the counties the position of game war
den is much coveted and influence has
1o be exerted In order to secure un
Appointment.
Deputy Game Warden Stone of Som
erset county, has made his position
pay him quite well this week, it is al
leged, at the expense of two Ignorant
Italians. Frisco Socrlsco is In the
Jail for Illegally killing two robblns
nnd will be released when he pays $42.
S, or at the rate of Jt'iO nnd costs for
each robin shot. The gume warden
gets half the fine, while the commit
ting Justice takes the other half. The
man cannot be released from Jail no
matter how long he is locked up unless
lie pays the tine.
The uther victim was George Sewntl.
who shot a rabbit a few hours before
the opening of the season. For this he
was arrested and fined $23. This tine
was paid by his friends, nnd he was
released.
BURGLAR SHOT DEAD.
Desperate Battle While Resisting
ArrcstIUs Companion Wounded.
Rochester, N. Y., Nov. 12. A special
In the Post-Express from Katavia says
that one burglar was shot to death and
another was wounded and captured at
2 o'clock this morning in Elba, Genesee
county, while they were resisting arrest
after entering V. A. Hundremark's
Keneral store.
The burglar alarm In the store awak
ened the proprietor in his. dwelling, nnd
he summoned a body of citizens, who
surrounded the store and called to the
burglars to surrender.
The robbers showed fight, and were
fired on, but returned the fire. Many
nhots were exchanged, and when quiet
was restored one burglar was found
dead behind the store. His companion
was wounded and surrendered. The
latter Is In Genessee county Jail and
says Ids name Is George Stevens, but
refuses to say any more.
PRISONER HAD A BAD TOOTH.
Was Allowed to io to n Dentist and
He Failed to Return.
Flemington, N: J., Nov. 12. Frank
Craig, the Easton bartender who was
serving six months In jail here nn a
charge of having attempted to shoot
Mrs. Bertha Morrison, escaped last
night. Craig has given the keepers no
trouble and was given the liberty to
go to a near-by dentist to have a tooth
extracted. As soon ns this was accom
plished he decamped. It was learned
that he walked to Kingocg, where he
boarded a train. Word was telegraphed
to LamUertvllle to arrest Craig, but
he was not on the train when it
reached there.
Senator KuM talked with Cralrt on
the train, and it is thought he be
came frightened and got oft at Alex
auken. It Is said the authorities are
on his track, and his recapture is only
a matter of a few hours. Craig's sent
ence would have expired this morn
ing, with the exception of a small line.

0CT03ER CROP REPORT.
Languishing Coudition or the Hop
Market Attributed to Chemicals.
New York, Nov. 12. In the crop re
port for October, 1S96. the I'nited States
department of agriculture attributed
the languishing -condition of . the hop
market to the general use of chemicals
as substitutes for hons In brewing.
The I'nited States Brewers' associa
tion In a letter to Secretary Morton
protested against this assertion, de
nounced It ns absolutely false and of
fered to assist in the prosecution of any
person guilty of adulteration. In re
ply the association received the follow
ing from Secretary Morton, vis:
Sir: T have the honor to acknowledge
the receipt of your communication of t af
4th tnst, niaile in the mime of the board
of trustees uiul advisory committee of thu
United States Brewers' association. The
statement ill the October crop report, to
which you called attention, was submit
ted to the statistician, ami ho informs nie
that while the analysis of the department
chemist shows that the use of other than
hops has not been known In the past his
tory of the i'nited Stales, still the state,
ment Is tmdouhttdly erroneous, as the use
of substitutes seems to be rare. The
paragraph in question, relating to a minor
crop, was also treated upon.
RUSIE BRINGS SUIT.
The Courts Will Decide Whether Base
Ball Associations Have a Legal
Right to Reserve Players.
Chicago, Nov. 12. Falling to secure
his release from the New York base
ball club lit the hands of the National
league, Amos Kusie. the Indianapolis
base bull player, tiled a bill for an in
junction in the federal court this morn
ing to secure liis release by legal pro
cess. Incidentally Ilusle's application
to the court means inure than his
personal release If granted. It means
that the right of reservation, exercised
by the base ball clubs, has no legal
standing and makes an open field at
the close of each season for the con
tracting of players for the following
season. Ttusie in his bill sets forth that
In 1893, he played with the New York
club under a contract of $3,;00. All
contracts under the National league
constitution and rules give to the con
tracting club the right to reserve a
player once contracting with It. The
player Is bound to accept the reserva
tion nnd the contract tendered unless
he can secure his release through his
purchase by some other club in the as
sociation. After reciting these facts
Kusie. says thot a player cannot en
gage himself to any other club until he
litis been released.
At the close of last year's season, the
New York club notified Kusie that he
was reserved. A contract was after
wards tendered to him at $3,4'm salary
for the season of 18fi. He refused to
sign and the New York club refused to
release him. Expecting to be releused
by limitation this year, Kusie waited.
To his surprise the New York club an
nounced his reservation. He appealed
to the National league, which decided
that the New York club had the right
of continued reFervation. The bill for
injunction declares that the combina
tion of the National league Is unlaw
ful and unreasonable, and If enforced,
will work it-remedial hardship to the
complainant. The prayer of the bill Is
"to restrain nnd enjoin the defendant
from asserting any claim or right to
the services of your orator in the line
of his profession, or from nssertlng any
claim or right that any other corpora
tion or association cannot employ or
engage the services of your orator In
his profession."
In addition Kusie began suit at law
for the recovery of $5,000 dnnmges by
reason of the conduct of the New
York club In preventing lilm from fol
lowing, his profession.
BOSTON WON'T BE SHOCKED.
The Famous Bacchante Statue May
Be Scut to Paris.
New York. Nov. 12. Macmonies
famous statue of the Itacchante. which,
according to the present plan, is to bo
set up in the Boston public library,
may not be put on exhibition there for
maiiy months, as news has Just urrlved
of the destruction, through an accident,
of the plaster cast made by the sculp
tor from which a smaller statue was to
be made for the Luxemburg galleries
in I'ari3.
The original was too large for the
Luxemburg and Macmonies went to
work on a smaller one. Through the
carelessness of some Paris draymen It
was broken In transit. Now the Lux
emburg is without i Itacchante, with
little prospect of getting one unless the
sculptor can get the original tiack
again.
POOR OPINION OF KNIGHTS.
President (Jompers, of Federation of
Labor, Expresses an Opinion.
Indianapolis, .Ind., Nov. 12. Presi
dent Gompers,. of the Federation of
Labor, was asked by a United Associ
ated Presses representative this after
noon for an expression as to reference
made to the federation by Master
Workman Sovereign, of the Knights of
Labor, in his annual address. He re
plied: "Well, I hardly think he Is deserving
of any attention. Kg one ever has paid
any attention to his schemes not even
when he ordered laboring men to lay
down their tools in 1S04, was any heed
given to his words. His reference to
the federation has no effect whatever
and, inasmuch as there are uructically
no members of his organization left, we
have no worry over what he says."

al commemoration of the execution of

VAULTS FILLED
WITH BRIGHT GOLD
ClearinfHonse Deposits May Yet Reach
$50,000,000.
GREAT INFLUX SINCE ELECTION
Bank of England's Failing Off in
Bulliou IIoldingsTrcnsury Re
scue BenefitedLarge Consign
mcntt of tho Yellow Metul Brought
Yesterday from Eng'nnd and Cuba.
New York, Nov. 12. The steamship
Majestic, which arrived from Europe
to-day, brought $517,200 In dollars, of
which $258,600 was consigned to Held
elbach, Ickelheiiner & Co., and a sim
ilar amount to Kessler & Co.
In addition to this the steamship Ori
zaba, from Havana, brought $240,000 in
I'nited States gold coin, consigned to
S. Smitlvrs & Co.. besides $10,000 in bar
silver for Mu Her, Schall & Co., and $:)".
Roo in bar silver for James E. Ward &
Co., the latter consignment being In
transit to London and Paris. The
steaim-hlp Athos, from Carthagena, had
on board $25,000 in gold bars in transit
to London.
The continued arrivals of gold from
abroad, together with the heavy depos
its on the purt of recent hoarders, are
beginning to benefit the treasury's re
serve materially.
At the beginning of business to-day
the treasury had a net gold balance of
S122.S2R.482, which Is the highest point
at which the reserve has been for a
number of weeks past.
The banks are likewise beginning to
feel the effect of the outfxruring of the
gold, which fact is made apparent by
the deposits of coin in the clearing
house vaults In exchange for clearing
house gold certificates. Since Oct. 15
over ?5,000,000 gold has been deposited
In exchange lor those certificntes.bring
Ing the amount of the certificates out
standing up to $35,070,000. This in
crease is the first that has taken place
In years.
out of the $5,000,000 recently depos
ited fully three-fifths has been placed
in the banks since election.
People In a position to know say that,
ns the treasury department no longer
Issues gold certificates for coin depos
ited with It. the indications are that
the bulk of the gold that has been
honrded will find Its way into the banks
of this and other reserve cities, and
that it would not be surprising If the
umotint of gold deposited in the Clear
ing house vaults would run up to $50,
Ooo.ooo. I-rlvato advit-ps from Boston today
stated that In the week ending yes
terday $G25.000 in gold was deposited
lth the suh-trency In that city.
While none of tne banking firms in
this city is at present engaged In order
ing fresh amounts of gold from Europe,
the Bank of England, nevertheless,
keeps on losing the precious metal.
The statement of the Hank of Eng
land given out today, covering the op
erations of that institution during the
past week shows a decrease in tho
amount of bullion held of 342.212. The
proportion of the bank's reserve to lia
bility is now 52.40 per cent., against
51.07 per cent, a week ago and 58.1(1 per
cent, at this time last year.

tcrious .Meeting at Manhattan.
New York, Nov. 12. The representa
tives of the Steel Men's association re
sumed their secret session today at the
Manhattan hotel. Several of the rep
resentatives in attendance informed a
reporter of the I'nited Associated
Presses that nothing of public Inter
est had transpired, but that Secretary
Orlscom, of tho Steel Men's associa
tion, might give out a statement this
afternoon.
At 6 o'clock the session adjourned
until 11 o'clock tomorrow morning. No
statement was Issued from the meet
ing. AWFUL CRIME OF OUTLAWS.
A Young Woman Burned to Death in
Her Dwelling.
Milton, W. Va., Nov. 12. Miss Cora
Scott, a comely young woman, was
burned to death In a fire which de
stroyed her parents' home last Mon
day night, and which. It is believed,
was started by outlaws through re
venge. There had long been a fued between
the Itroumtleld and McCoy factions of
Lincoln county. Magistrate Vance's
house was blown up by dynamite, and
Cora Scott was accused of being nn ac
complice in the crime. She wus ar
rested, but would make no confession,
and was finally released. Shortly after
her home was burned.

SUICIDE TO AVOID SURGERY.
An Aged Woinnn with Failing Eyes
Asphyxiated.
New York, Nov. 12. Mrs. Margaret
J. Seiley, an elderly woman, a lodger
for the past five months at Mrs. Harriet
Goble's boarding house, where she was
understood to be the widow of an Eng
lish officer, and had $4,000 In bank,
committed suicide Inst night by inhal
ing Illuminating gas.
Mrs. Seilcy's eyes were both affected
by cataracts, which must soon have
been operated on. and it is probable
that dread of this operation drove her
to suicide.
