.^WEDNESDAY'S IMPORTANT EVENTS. NEW YOIIK, Aug. 21.—Tho situation of tho strike is sorlous. Genoral Master Workman l'owdorly at 11 o'clock Wodnosday said that tho striko was now no longer one of the local assembly of tho Knights of Labor, hut of tho wholo organization. Every resource of tho order would bo used. He Intimated that tho Federation of Railway Employes would support the Knights In tho light.

Is probable that Mr. Powdorly will to-day issue an appeal to all Ivnights of Labor in the employ of the CentralHudson railroad and upon the Vanderbllt connecting lines. In the documont ho will state the causes for tho striko and the efforts mado to obtain peaceable settlement of tho difficulties, and notify each and ovory mombor of tho Intention of tho cxocutlvo board of the Ivnights of Labor to prosecute the fight against tho company to tho bitter end. At the samo tlmo it Is mado known that Grand Master Sargent has willed a meeting of tho supreme council of the Federation of Railway Employes for Saturday, August SB, at t» a. m. in tho city of Torre Ilauto, Ind.

At 8 o'clock Wednesday afternoon Mr. Powdorly and Mr. Devlin had an interrlow with Mr. Webb and considered the quostion of arbitration. Mr. Toucoy was present. The offer of Mr. Powdorly to submit tho matter to arbitration Mr. Webb refused, on' tho grounds already presented. In other words, ho said tho company was not "Jumping on tho Knights of Labor." They did not dischargo men because they woro Knights of Labor, but for good reasons. Neither Mr. Depow nor Mr. Vandcrbilt was opposed to the Knights of Labor us an organization. They did notdlscliarge tho men because they were Knights oi Labor, but because tho work was not satisfactory^

Mr. Towderly then suggested, as Clio matter had so much publicity, a hearing should bo held in Mr. Wobli'a oOlcO at which the men should be present This Mr. Wobb would not hoar to, saying that It was ridiculous. Mr. Powdorly onco moro urged that tho matter bo arbitrated, hut Mr. Wobb remained firm.

Mr. Dovlln again asked Mr. Wobb If £0 would consent to an Investigation of tho causes surrounding tho dischargo of tho men. Mr. Wobb reiterated that there was nothing to investigate that the railroad company wa9 making tho road, and did not see why its notions should bo questioned. Mr. Devlin then askod hiin If ho did not owe tho public and' the employes of tho road any duty regarding its management, in which all were moro or less interested. Mr. Webb did not reply.

Mr. Dovlln then said that thoro was no uso In further discussing tho matter, as tho railroad hod declared ltsolf in favor of an independent coursa Mr. Toucey then said that Master Workman Loo was j.rimarily responsible for tho striko. Mr. Dovlln asked Mr. Toucoy If bo would waive tho question of Mr. Leo's action and consider the dischargo of tho other men. JMossr?. Toucey and Wobb rotlred, and that ended tho conference.

Mr. Powdorly and Mr. Devlin thon withdrew without making any throats or Intimating what they Intended to da

Mr. Webb gave this version of tho interview, and said that the wholo conference was carried on in a most pleasant manner.

Mr. Webb told Powderlv that If tho road should accede to the demands of tho strikers he would rather bo General Master Workman of tho Knights of Labor than president of the road, booauso then he could manago t.lio road much better In that position than in tho present one.

In Mr. Powdorly'a statement of tho ovonts of Wednesday he says an intorvlow was first held with Superintendent Toucey, but that, gentleman absolutely refused to entertain any proposition looking toward arbitration or an Investigation of tho causes of tho dischargo of tho mon. Then Mr. Webb was callod upon, and to him was repeated tho offer which tho knights have mado from tho boginnlng, that they would declare tho Striko oil if the company would agroo to submit the cases

i)f

tho discharged

mon to the Investigation of disinterested outside parties, on tho understanding that if it should bo Shown that there was no causo for tho discharge of any men other than tholr connection with the Knights of Labor such men should bo reinstated in their positions, the representatives of tho Ivnights of Labor agrooing to bind themselves to abide by tho decision of the finding of the investigators. Mr. Webb positively refused to agreo to this request In tho interest of peace. Ilo also refused to m»et the discharged mon in order that they might be questioned In his presence regarding tho charges against them. Mr. Toucoy, who came Into the room during tho interview, rolteratcd tho oft-mado statement that thoy would insist upon their right to dischargo any of their employes without assigning a reason fordoing so, and that they would not admit tho right of any labor organization or cominlttco of such organization to Intervene In tho matter.

Uelng asked if they took tho position that a railroad was tho private property of tbo company, and whether tho employes of the company or the public had any right to question the actions of tho management, they resorted at last to a refuge In a sllenco which tho representatives of the Knights In vain tried to broak. Tho latter said that if it was tho policy of tho company not to admit Vbat tho public or employes of tho road

had any right ljRthe premises, it was usoloss to wastOHtme or words on tho raattor, and shoftly after withdrow.

Upon tho rotupi of Messrs. l'owdrrly and Dovlln to tho St. Cloud Hotel tho oxocutlvo board of the Knights and tho eupromo council of tho Federation of Railway employes hold a prolonged conforonce. Tho position of all the bodies represented was fairly stated. The result was that 'tho representatives of tho federation' decided to call a mooting of tho Supronv) Council of tho Federation of Railway Employes for Saturday, tho 23d, at 0 a. m., In tho city of Terro Ilauto, Ind., for action In tho mattor. At this meeting Mr. Sargent said ho would lay tho wholo case boforo tho council. Ho fully indorses tho position of tho oxecutivo board. "Tho executliro board," said Mr. Powdorly, Wodnosday night, "says to tho Knights of Latter and tho public that tho position finally assumed by tho company makoaflt necessary for It to Vindicate tho rights of labor to organizo by prosocutlng the strike to tho bittor end."

Mr. Wobb said that ho considered that the striko was declared in tho belief that tho Central management was opposed to tho'Knlghts of Labor, llo wslhed to roltorate his statomont that this was not tho truth. When told that tho striko over the wholo road would bo declared at onco, Mr. Webb said that in splto ot all that tho road run oil trains In tho morning as usnal. Nelthor he nor Mr. Voorhoos appeared much depressed, no wished tho public to know that ho had no official notice from l'owderly of tho striko, and said that all this tlmo tho company bad not been lying idle. When told tho striko meant all the employes but engineers ho appeared somowhat startled. Nclthor ho nor Mr. Voorhccs mado any comment thoroon.

Mr. Powdorly "wos askod what would bo tho noxt mora Ho said It had not boon dotorminod, but that ho would today lssuo oft appeal to tho mechanics and all other employes of tho CejitralJludson system and connecting lines. Tho documont will bo based upon tho rofusal of tho company to arltrate tho difficulties and call upon thom to work at onco.

QUA~Y'S RESOLUTION.

In the Senate, hut Falla Vote Senator Hoar's

It li niAnt«n*t to Roach A Speech.

WASHINGTON, Aug. ai. —When tho Senate opened Wednesday Sunn top lloar (Mass.) demanded the yeas and nays on agrooing to the Quay resolution shelving the force bill, and then offered the two amendments of which lie had given notice Tuesday—one to include the Federal election bill in tho proposed order of business and tho other (In the nature of a substitute) to provide for demanding the previous question. So.nntor Quay gave notico that he would ask a division ot the subject when the voto should bo taken.

Senator Hoar then began his speech in advocacy of his amendment no said he thought, in view of tho Imports auco of the subject which bo proposod to include in tho programme, that bo should mako a statement of its purposo and nocossity. Tho measuro bad been much misrepresented. Nothing hod been heard of it in tho Senate, however, except a threat of ono highly honored Sonator of bloodshed if Its provisions should bo attempted to be put in force. Tho proposition contained In tills bill wns nothing moro than a proposition to remove force and fraud from the election of members of the Iiouso of Representatives.

Speaking of tho merits of tho Federalelections bill, Senntor Hoar said that when Sonators came into offico they took an oath to support tho constitution. This bill undertook to defend tho constitution of tho United against an attempt to overthrow It by depriving the majority of their right honestly nnd freely to elect Representatives in iho other houso of Congress. Its main objeot was to obtain the evidence ypon which tho HousO "of Representatives could safoly proceed In rendering judgment as to the election of Its mombors. Tho provisions of tho bill were the result of a most fntlsfao-

"The Kepubllcan party of the State, whllo Intrusted with power, pledges Itself to maintain a faithful ami economical administration at tho StnteO overnment, and will demand tho passace by the next Legislature of snch amendments tn the existing laws ns will provlil", under proper guaranties to the State, for the nepoiiit In banks, subject to the order of the State Treasurer, of such parts of the general fund of the Stnto not required for immedlato use, nnd of tho trust funds temporarily awaiting Investment, all Interest allowed on such deposits to go to the respective funds, the Stato Treasurer to be relieved from any liability for such depos Its while they remain iu tho bunks that the principle of the public regulation of railways is a wise and salutary oue for the protection of all classes of people. "It further commends tho new election law of this Stute enacted by a Republican Leglslo turc and signed by a Hepubllcun Governor, by which new safeguards are placed uround the ballot-box to assure the Independence of voters and honost elections, accurately reflecting the will of the people, it recognizes und heartily commends the faithful and efficient manage racnt of the nfTatrs of this commonwealth under the preseut State onicers that the general demand from all parts of the State for the renom lnatlon of Governor Hoard furnishes the highest and most conclusive evidence of populat approval of his udminlstratlou nnd the warm place he holds In the conlldcnee and esteem of the people as an ablo, tlrm and conscientious executive, and signifies his triumphant re election to the highest office In the glfrof our great onci prosperous commonwealth."

tory oxperlonco in tho United StateB ana Greal Britain. There was nothing new In it It struck nt evil In all parts of the country alike. It applied to tho I wholo country with additional procautions nnd safeguards what tho North had applied to itself for nearly twenty yenrs.f

Coining down to tho Quay resolution, Senntor Hoar said that nobody doubted that Its purposo wrs to defeat the Fedoral election bill for this Congress. Tho next session would last but thirteen weeks, from which the Christmas holidays would havo to bo deducted. There would bo tliirtoon groat appropriation bills to be passed, bcsldos tho apportionment bill, and the other business which pressod upon the attention of Congress. That consideration should bo enough to defeat the resolution. Everybody who votod for it committed himself forovor to tho principle that tho Senate had the right at Its discretion to cut off doboto nnd to order tbo question to be takon.

At tho conclusion of Senator Hoar's spoech Sonator Spooner (Wis.) moved the roforonco of the resolution to tho oommitteo on rules.

Senator Fry (Me.} opposed tho referenco nnd advocated a change in tho rules so as to shut off debate on tho tariff bill.

Sonator Edmunds (Vt.) opposed this ^proposition. At 12 o'clock the tariff bill came up as unfinished business, and Senator

Aldrlch (It I.) refused to allow it to bo laid asido, so tho Quay resolution went over.

The IIou-o amendment to the agricultural college bill and the yieat inspection bill were laid h"fnio the Senate and concurred In. These bills now go to tho President for his signature.
