Mr. Pow derly, who was present, was strongly impressed with tho idea that tho company was attacking tho organiza tion, and requested Mr. "Webb to ques tion some of the men discharged. Mr. Webb made no reply. J. Lee, recalled, gaid he had cabled Mr. Dopew at Paris, and received no reply. He had made strong efforts to prevent a strike and had had a long correspondence with Mr. Powderly. He identified the correspondence. In the first letter dated February 13th, 1890, Mr.Powderly complimented Lee on bis skillful management of O. N. D. A. 246, and advised Lee to "feel his his way " carefully," remembering that be is coping with one of the strongest corporations in America.- He advised the order to treat the company corteously. Under date of April, Mr" Powderly re gretted to see that the road was pick ing off so many Knigbls, and ad vised Lee to do all that was possible to prevent a strike, Avhich he said was what the road wanted. "The order," he wrote, "could not support a strike, apathy and air of being half-bored, besides I am informed Mr. Depew is I which characterizes all shows which anxious to have the men strike." 1 are thoroughly familiar to theater and On July 30th, he wrote Powderly circns patrons, that the road was crowding the 1 AU at ouce tlie fair Reformer drew Knights very hard, evidently trvin" to a few Pius from lufi W window of her force a strike. Traffic being dull, he, ' dress aiul drovr tliat garment off, leav himself, had been discharged and half . inS lier standing on one foot clad in of the men wore anxious to strike. On I au elaborate lace skirt Aug. 2d, Powderly wrote regretting t Tue audience awakened from its tho condition of affairs and saving indifference, and tho show became that if there was to be trouble I endowed Avith a new interest, it would come in Denew's absence. I More Pns were extracted and over He still ndviseu nn nvnidnnm of n strike at all hazards, as the order could not support it "Act on the fol lowing suggestions," he wrote, "select from your men such as are reliable and secure places for them in the!

He is a presiden tial candidate and woidd not care for a strike on his road." Again, under date of August Gth, Mr. Powderly says: "It is madness for the men on the Central to strike; they can't win." He calls attention to the fact that 1892 will be a presidential year and in 1893 tho World's fair will be held, and for that reason the road wanted the trouble got out of the way at once. In conclusion he says: "We can't assist you. Tho workmen of this age will not stand the assessments. If a strike is inevitable, let tho men of the New York Central enter it with their eyes open." Mr. Powderly was called and re lated his interview with Mr. Webb, but said nothing new. Pending tho strike, ho said, ho had no interview with any of the road's officials. The board announced that if neither side called Messrs. Voorhees, Bissill, Sterins or Lyons, the board would do so to-morrow. Adjourned.

After dinner we play billiards, dance, and spend a very enjoyable evening. At 11 o'clock madame gives the signal to retire. One of our chief amusements is for madame, to play and sing ono of her favorite airs. You would never think it was the great Patli sitting there and en joying all like a school girl. Then she plays for us to dance and we ily aronnd like a lot of children. Madame is very anxious for me to aceept an engagement for the coming winter season, and I may do so, if you think best.
