Convention of the National Federation of Miners, No. 13*8 East Washington street, beginning at 9 o’clock A. M. Railroad Fail, Tomlinson Hall, Opening of the Grand Opera-house for the regular season. Louis James and Marie Wainwright, in “Much Ado About Nothing.” Trying to Recover an Old Judgment. In the United States District Court, yesterday, John Baumeistor, of Louisville, filed suit against Henry G. Ogle, of Fort Wayne, asking the sum of $2,500. The complaint affirms that on the 23d day of last September the plaintiff entered into a contract with F. W. Chipman and C. E. Dalrymple, of Louisville, for the erection of a warehouse in that city, and that the defendant became the surety of Chipman and Dalrympls for the payment of tho notes he took when the building was completed. The notes wero not paid when due, and he brought suit against Chipman and Dalrymple in the Common Fleas Court of Perry county. Kentucky, and secured judgment against them, but he found 4hey could not satisfy the judgment. He is now suing to recover the amount of the judgment. The Great Point, Kelleher, the loading hatter and furnisher, at No. 23 South Meridian street, has just received his fall styles. It is safe to assert that no stock of hats ever seen in the city surpass Mr. Kelleher's new goods this season. And in addition to the fact that the styles are nobby and desirable, the great point which ho is making is that he is underselling all competitors. When anyone in the trade gits ahead of Kelleher he has to rise before the break of day. Tub latest things in parlor goods at Win. I*. Elder’s.

THE MINERS WIL L NOT MERGE They Determine, After a Lengthy Debate, to Maintain a Distinct Organization. The Federation Conclude 0 that the Interests of Miners Will Not Bo Promoted by ltd Surrendering to the Knights of Labor, The Federated Coal miners yesterday devoted the greater part of their time to a consideration of the report from the committee on resolutions. In the morning, after the convention had disposed of the usual routine order, the report came up, and in nearly every case the matter presented led to protracted debate. But in every view expressed there was an intelligent conservatism, showing that the organization did not desire to reach conclusions or to act hastily. The committee’s recommendations, with but one exception, were adopted without amendment, and this related to the question of merging the interests of the federation in the Knights of Labor. It was decided on this report to make no change in the per capita tax, but to give the executive board power to levy additional assessments if unforeseen difficulties should arise necessitating an increase of revenue from this source. A resolution against putting organizers in the field, as it would entail heavy expenses, and expressing it as the best plan to continue the present organization, was adopted. The committee, by a decisive vote, favored arbitration in regard to machine mining, and also the payment of machine miners such a price as would equalize wages with the pick miners. It was further agreed, by a unanimous vote, to favor a connection with the International Tradesunion of the United States and Canada, and to instruct the executive board to carry on a correspondence with the officers of that organization relative to this proposal. The committee’s recommendation as to the Knights of Labor question was as follows: Whereas, It seems that there is a vast difference in opinion among our craft in regard to the different labor organizations, and as they have a tondency to conflict with each other, be it Resolved, That we deem it wise to have one distinct organization fer the miners and mine laborers of the United States and Territories; further, that such organization should be acknowledged as the supreme body, and that the executive board of said organization be empowered to arbitrate and settle all matters pertaing to mining. A substitute was at once offered, shortening the form and placing it in milder terms, but it did not come regularly before the convention, and the discussion took place on the committee's resolution. The speeches were all decidedly ill favor of some expression of the kind, but the form presented did not meet the wishes of many. Mr. Short, of Ohio, and Mr. Beesley, of the same State, made strong speeches in its favor, the latter charging that the Knights of Labor had worked against the miners’ organization throughout the coal regions of Pennsylvania and West Virginia. He did not want to surrender the authority of the miners to any trades union. The Knights of Labor were in the rear of the federation, and could not possibly aid the miners as their own organization can. He was for the federation all the time, and if it became necessary in upholding that spirit, he would withdraw from the Knights of Labor. There are too many organizations, but not enough organizing. Mr* McLaughlin, of Illinois, said the Knights of Labor for thirteen years bad been known to the miners, but he did not know of an instance where the latter, as a class, had been benefited by that organization. Yet in whatever was said by these gentlemen, who are all members of the Knights, they expressed a high approbation of the organization’s aims. The difference arises largely on methods in reference to the settlement of difficulties, and also in relation to the comparative benefits of open and secret organizations. The federated miners favor the first as the best course to pursue. Mr. Mcßride, of Ohio, said he desired cooperation of the craft, whether as an entity within the Knights of Labor or as an independent federation. A fundamental principle of the latter organization was that any local, State or district body could transact its affairs openly or secretly. “But.” he continued, “we have no right to say anything except that the federation is better adapted to meet the wants of the craft than the Knights alone. The sentiment is that the federation is inferior to the Knights.” Wherever the latter has undertaken to conduct affairs in the interest of miners they had failed. As an instance. McFadden and others, who sought to conduct the strike in the Clearfield region, were arrested for conspiracy, and some of them were convicted. Kansas miners intrusted their interests to the Knights, and now no organization exists among them. In Maryland the strike failed, and miners, with their families, were driven from home to seek employment in the Western States and Territories. No substantial assistance came from the Knights in the great Hocking-valley strike, except $240, while from other sources $970,000 was raised. In this strike, also, the Knights refused to arbitrate, while the miners of each organization did so. Citing other instances of like character, the speaker said, “The Knights of Labor help miners who help themselves, but when the miners demonstrate an ability to conduct their own affaire, that order comes in to take the credit I favor the principles of the Knights, but lam opposed to their methods. If you. as miners, adopt methods that come into conflict with the Kuights of Labor, let the struggle come, even if it leads to our withdrawal from that order as individual members. Mr. Harris, of Pennsylvania, spoke of the inroads the Knights were making on Pennsylvania and West Virginia miners. For a time the Amalgamated Association of Miners was on the decline; but the spirit ’ has changed, and miners are beginning to see that the head officers of the Knights are after power aud want to control all the labor organizations of the country. “They do not seek harmony,” he said. “It behooves us, then, to take the position of*the Amalgamated Iron Workers. They exacted a promise from Powderly that the Knights of Labor organizers should not make canvass where the association had control. He promised to withdraw all organizers from that, field. The miners in Pennsylvania were not in as good position as they were two years ago. I am not prepared to surrender out interests in auy organization.” The debate closed by adopting unanimously the following substitute, offered by Mr. Donnelly, of Illinois: Resolved, That we are opposed to merging with the Knights of Labor, and recognize no organization as being capable to deal with the interests of miners and mine laborers of the United States and Territories but the Miners’ and Mine Laborers’ National Federation. and to it we will ever cling, and ask that our executive board issue a manifesto defining properly to the miners and wage-workers of the world our proper stand on the subject of labor, and, while wanting peace, do not seek it at the price of liberty to our craft. A resolution to the effect that no officer of the federation shall be an officer of any labor organization, except State and district organizations of miners, was referred to the committee on res olutions. The purpose of this was td prevent any officer of the federation from becoming an officer in the Kniehts of Labor, but as it also had the effect of prohibiting such officers from holding official connection with all other labor organizations, it was desired to have the resolution either killed entirely or amended to meet the wishes of many. The convention then adjourned until this morning. The Orphan Asylutn’a Inmates. The superintendent of the Indianapolis Orphan Asylum male a quarterly report to the County Commissioners yesterday. Up to Sept. 1 it bad 132 inmates, for whose maintenance $2,267.25 had been expended. The report was approved. Superintendent Williams, of the poor farm, also filed his report for the quarter ending Sept. 1. There were iu the asylum then 179 males ar.d 61 females, of whom 59 were insane. As to nationality, the American inmates numbered 121; Irish, G 7; Germans, 34;

English, 8, Canadians, 2; white, 240; colored 10. Daring the quarter there were 7 deaths and 23 discharges, leaving 205 in the asylum the first of this month. This is a large number for the summer season, and it is expected the winter months will bring applications for admission that will go beyond the capacity ol the institution. BAD TREATMENT OF A SOLDIER. Postmaster Jones Charged by a Discharged PostofSce Employe with Withholding Pay. Postmaster Jones’s political ax is still at work, and it is almost invariably the necks of the old soldiers that suffer. The last man to be dismissed is Henry Albprshardt, a janitor, who re sides at No. 121 Spring street. Mr. Albershardt has been employed in the office since May, one year ago, first as janitor on the first floor, and then on the second. He is an intelligent and industrious German, and bis friends secured the place for him on account of his soldier record. He enlisted at the beginning of of the war in the Tenth Ohio Regiment of Volunteers, and served three years. He was wounded in a skirmish at Buzzards’ Roost soon after the capture of Atlanta, by being shot in the hip. He yet carries the ball in his hip, and is at times very lame on account of the wound. He is one of the charter members of George H. Thomas Post G. A. R. • “When I was appointed,” he says, “I was promised that I was to have something better in a short time, I was to have S6OO a year for my work, but I had not been at work more than a month when Mr. Jones informed me that he would pay me but $45 per month. I insisted that he should keep his former contract with me. but he refused, and while I was there I only received $45 per month. The better position I was to have didn’t come, and I, with the rest of the old soldiers, had to do the drudg ery and hard work about the building. Nearly all the old soldiers employed in the building now are serving as janitors, or other positions where the pay is small and the work hard.” On Tuesday Albershardt asked to be excused from carrying a heavy sack to the office of Senator Harrison, owing to his suffering from his wound. Postmaster Jones insisted that he should do the work. Within a half hour after Albershardt’s refusal to carry the sack, which was outside of his regular duties, he was notified of his discharge. WOULDN’T SUBMIT TO ARREST. John Glazier’s Lively Resistance of a Group of Johnson County Detectives. Last Thursday, at a picnic given by the old settlers of Johuson county, at Whiteland, trouble occurred between some Indianapolis visitors and a crowd of young men from the country. The latter went to procure warrants for the arrest of the men from the city, and while they were gone the city men jumped into their wagon and drove homeward. Some distance from the grounds a party of men claiming to belong to a horse-thief detective association stopped the wagon and arrested a man named Hall, without any show of authority. John Glazier, who was of the city crowd, took Hall from the alleged detectives, aud the party went on their way without further molestation. On Sunday morning three or four men from Johnson county came to Indianapolis to arrest Glazier, whom they found at the depot He asked them for their warrant, when they showed a paper he did not feel like rocognizing. They attempted to take him at any cost, when he knocked one of the men down and scattered the rest Tuesday the sheriff of Johnson came up with a bench warrant, and, through the assistance of Captain Colbert, found the doughty John. He expressed his willingness to go with the sheriff, but he did not propose to submit to arrest by any horse-thief deteotives. Glazier yesterday was released on a SIOO bond to appear at Whiteland, next Thursday, for trial for assault aud battery.

The Grand Opera-House Opening:. The regular season at the Grand Opera-house will begin to-night with the engagement of Mr. Louis James and Miss Marie Wainwright in “Much Ado About Nothing,” a comedy too seldom seen here, in which, according to the press reports, they made a very decided success in Chicago last week. It will be given with a cast of individual excellence and appropriate scenic surroundings. To morrow evening “Virginius” will be presented, with “Much Ado” again at the matinee on Saturday, and a double bill, “Merchant of Venice” and “Katherine and Petrnchio,” Saturday night The Grand has been redecorated and refurnished, and now presents a very handsome appearance. It is perfectly ventilated, and everything that is possible to add to the comfort and convenience of its patrons has been done. A thoroughly excellent and artistic performance may be expected at the opening this season. Statue of St Patrick, A beautiful statue of St. Patrick has been received at St. John’s Cathedral and placed upon the altar erected there in his honor. The statue comes from Paris, and is pronounced to be a most excellent and artistic representation of Ireland’s patron saint It was purchased by the Rosary Society for the church, a majority of the communicants of which are Irish. The statue represents St Patrick as a bishop, with a snake writhing in the death aeony under his crozier. Trade Winds —Swapping bellows.
