LONDON. NOV. 16.—The British ship Culmere, from lquique for Hull, foundered in Wednesday's gale about 80 miles off Spurn Head, Yorkshire, and went down with nil on board. Twen-ty-two souls, including Capt. Read a-ul his wife, are lost. Eight bodies were washed ashore at Worthing Thursday morning.

The Culmere was last reported from Hamburg, where she stopped on her voyage from Iquique. She was loaded with a miscellaneous cargo, and although the weather was not propitious, Capt. Head considered the distance to Hull. 44'J miles, a safe run, and concluded to try it.

Han Into the Gale.

He left Hamburg Wednesday morning and evidently ran right into the teeth of the gale. The wind was blowing a perfect hurricane, carrying the vessel out of her course. She was seen from the Dudgeon lights house scudding before the wind under bare poles, and laboring in the seas, which were unusually heavy. Soon after passing the lighthouse rockets were sent up from the vessel, the name of which was unknown at the time.

The distress signals were answered from the lighthouse, which were seen by the coast guard at Spurn Head, but with the fierce gale blowing on shore the life-savers were powerless even if they could have seen the vessel. The guard was doubled and patrolled the coast all of \Vedncsda3' afternoon and night, but saw no signs of the vessel.

Itotfies Washed Ashore.

Thursday morning a coast guardsman discovered a body in the breakers near Worthing and with assistance seured it. A life-preserver with the name "Culmere" stamped on it told the name of the ill-fated vessel and the loss of its officers and crew. Within another hour seven more bodies were washed up by the sea within a quarter of a mile of Worthing, each confirming the identity of the vessel seen by tHe watchman in the Dudgeon lighthouse laboring in the sea. The body of Capt. Read was among those tossed up on the beach. 1'pople

KNIGHTS OF LABOR.

fiynopNis of the Annual AddroKH of Mr. Sovereign. NEW OHLEANB, Nov. 1G.—At Thurs

day afternoon's session of the general assembly of the Knights of Labor General Master Workman Sovereign delivered his annual address, which was an exhaustive and elaborate resume of the work of the order from its Incipiency. A synopsis follows:

Fe attributed tho decrease in the membership of the order to the depression iu business circles, prevalent bankruptcy, low wages and enforced idleness of the lnborlntr classes. Ilo stated that be had traveled 35.401 miles sinco assuming his stewardship, and hud organized eleven new assemblies and made ninety-seven public addresses.

He reviewed his action of last January when he secured the servioes of Judge C. C. Cole, and filed a bill in the district court of the District of Columbia setting forth special grievances of his order and protesting against the issuance of bonds by the secretary of tbe Unitod States treasury. Ho characterized tho writ of injunction from the United States circuit court of the eastern district of Wiseonsiu as a deupotio injunction.

Referring to the A. R. U. affiliations, he advised a coalition with this as well as all labor organizations. His resume of the Pullman strike terminated in a severe criticism of Maj. Gen. John M. Scholleld, and the recommendations of that officer for an Increase of the army, together with tho action of Chicago's millionaire aristocracy, who were permitted to present a stand of colors to tho Fifteenth infantry." was an indication of an uueasy desire to subjugate labor through the military powers of the nation." He urged that tho assembly take strong grounds against an Increase of the military force of the nation, and that they "advocate a decrease in the regular army and the abolition of the state militia, for from them are coming to tho surface a sense of military despotism."

He also made a sharp criticism of the banking laws. Ho advised a few minor cl.augcs in tbe preamble of the order.

At the close of the address the report of the general executive board was presented and referred to the several committees. Tt was a voluminous affair, but contained much that was of interest to the delegates.
