There Will Ho tu Industrial Confer
ence 'IhlH Month.
Nr.w YOHK , July 10. General Master
Workman Powdorly yesterday Issued n spe
cial circular to nil local assemblies of the
Knights of Labor on the question of the pro
posed Industrial conference which Was to
have been held oa July UO to take up the
platform of the farmers' alliance und join
bands with the third party , The call has re
ceived so llttlo response outside of the
Knights that Mr. Powclerly has deemed it
wise to declare It off for the prosout mid to
hold n mealing on Washington's birthday ,
1SW , In the circular Mr. I'owdorly says :
"Instructed by the general assembly of the
order of the Knights of .Labor at Denver ,
Col. , In November , ISM ) , to correspond with
other labor organizations with n view to
holding a convention for the purpose of for
mulating n platform of principles to bo voted
on nt the polls , I have performed that duty us
well as my environments would permit , and
up to this time but thrco oflleers of other
labor organizations have Blgnlllcd a willing
ness to co-opernto In holding such a conven
tion. ' '
Alter staling Hint the date named by tilm
for the convention was July 2 ! ) and that since
then u platform of principles has been adopted
at Cincinnati , ho continues :
"If the convention of .Inly l9 ! is held , It will
have few present who nro not members of the
order. As that organization has a well de
fined and excellent platform of principles
already before the public , it would ho folly
to call the delegates together n nln for thu
purpose of rend opting U. In November the
general assembly will meet nca'n ' and If
changes are necessary they may bo made
there. The general oniecrs of the Kulahts
of Labor were Instructed to co-opernto with
the farmers' organization in securing meas
ures cf relief and have done so. A confeder
ation of the nvriculturnl ami industrial or
ganizations has been formed. Is in successful
operation , nncl luis adopted n declaration of
principles to bo voted fi.r ut the polls , "
Ilo then says It would bo a waste of time
to call the same men together again , partic
ularly so since the confederation already
formed nas agreed to meet on Washington's
birthday , ISO' ! , and prepare for the coining
struggle In selecting the best parts of the
various platforms and engrafting them In a
short und comprehensive declaration of what
the industrialists would have ut the mast
head lu a political campaign.
OrpcIcy'H First Meeting with Tjinonlii.
About 1S08 , IIonicT Greeloy wrote
remarkable address on Abraham Lin
coin , which it Is bcliovocl was never do'
livorcd. The MS. came Into the
possession of n former editor of the Tribune -
buno , und in now lirst published in
the July Century under the title
"Greeley's Estimate of Lincoln. " Of
Lincoln , the congressman , Air. Grcoloy
says :
"I first met Mr. Lincoln Into in 18-18 at
Washington , as ti representative in the
Thirteenth congress the only ono to
which ho was over elected. His was , as
apportioned under the census of IS 10.
a whig1 district ; and ho was
elected from it in IS-Ni by the largest
majority it over gave any ono. Ho was
then not qtiito forty years old ; u genial ,
cheerful , rather comely man , noticeably
ta.ll , and the only whig from Illinois -
not roinnrknhlo otherwise , to the best
of my recollection. He was gone rally
liUod on our side of the house ; ho intido
two or three moderate and sensible
speeches which attracted like attention ;
ho voted generally to forbid the intro
duction of slavery into the still untainted
territories : but ho did not vote for Mr.
Gault's 'resolve looking to the
immediate abolition of slavery
in the Federal district , being
deterred by the somewhat fiery preamble
thereto. Ho introduced a counter-pro
position of his own , looking to abolition
by a vote of the people that is by the
whites of the district which seemed tome
mo much like submitting to tlio votes of
the inmates of a penitentiary n proposi
tion to double the length of their ro-
apcctivo terms of imprisonment. In
short , ho was one of the very mildest
typo of Wilmot Proviso whigs from the
free states not nearly so pronounced ns
many who long-since found a congenial
rest in the ranks of the pro-slavery dom
ocrncy. But as I had ma.de most of that
short session , by printing an elucidated
expose of the iniquities of
congressional mileage ; and ns
he did not join the active cabal
against me , though his mileage figured
conspicuously and by no moans llattor-
Intrly In that expose , I parted from him
at tlio close of the congress with none
but grateful recollections. There wore
men accounted abler on our side of the
house such as Collamor , of , Vermont ;
Palfrey , and Mann of Massachusetts , and
porhtiDS Schonck and Root , of Ohio
yet I juclgo that no other was more gen
erally liked and esteemed than he. And
yet had each of us boon required to name
the man among us who would first at
tain the presidency , I doubt whether
live of us would have designated Abra
ham Lincoln. "
A Slccttch of Kniporor Wllllnm.
The young omnoror of Gnrmanv who
IH now creating a social and political
furore in Knglund , is thus pictured by
Privy Councillor Gofl'ckon in the July
Forum :
William II. is undoubtedly the most
remarkable sovereign of the present
time. Ho is a modern man , notwith
standing certain proclivities which still
adhere to him , like pieces of the shell of
an egg from which the bird has issued.
With restless activity ho soi'/.os upon all
questions which agitate our time ,
bo they largo or small. To
day lie speaks on great European
alTuirs , opens now issues to German
"
commerce and" proclaims social reform ;
tomorrow ho opens an art exhibition
and takes a personal part in the per
formance of Wildenbruoh'j patriotic
drama "The Lord. " Ho
, Now . presides
over his council and shows himself a
ready douator , onons n Hoholastio con
ference , laying clown his educational
plans , and indefatigably travels all over
ills country in order to see everything
witli his own * ovorf. Much in all this
may bo attributed to Ills active temper ,
but the moving principle is
und oubU'dly the high concop
lion of Ibis duty ns * 'tho
llrst servant of the state. " Tills con
ception is bound up with a strong con
sciousness of his eminent position ; ho
fuels himself to be the pillar of tlio state ,
called to carry out a great mission. As
before the dismissal of Hismarck ho mild
that ho would crush any ono trying to
obstruct hit * path , so lie declared in tils
Into speech at Udsseldorf : "Only ono is
master in this country ; i shall uulTor no
other. " It would bo unjust to see in
such utterances , caused by a high con
sciousness of his power absolutist ten
dencies on the part of the omporor. Ho
is a constitutional prince and has rigidly
respected parliamentary rights. Hut
in a limo when the principle of author
ity aud order is undermined in many
waye , the youthful Hoveroign feels that
lie is the canter of monurchiul discipline ,
without which the htnto can neither
exist nor progress , and lie is resolved to
maintain his authority agulnjt social
democrats as well as against interested
coalitions of privileged classes and per
sons.
There Is no accounting for the ways of
Cupid. He may bring about alliance in the
most unexpected places. The llrst Moham
medan marriage In England was celebrated a
few ilay < ago , when a Moslem lawyer was
wedded cording to the rights of his religion
to the daughter of a lorU justice.

The ticket scalpers have bceuii a Unlit on
Chairman Flnloy of the Western Passenger
association. They contend that ho is guilty
of conspiracy in bavint ; his spotter buy
mileage ticltets of them and then causing
these tickets to bo forfeited when presented
on the trains. For the purpose or making
a test case , C. H. Mitchell , connected
with 15. A. Mulford's ticket npency , took
MH from one of the Fnilcy detectives' who
bought a ticket to Denver ard men refused
to give him the ticket or return the money
unless ho would sign n written statement
that the purchase was nuidu in good faith.
Mitchell was promptly arrested for embezzle *
nicnt and taken before a justice of the pcaco
who held lilm InflOJ bond until July in. In
speaking of the case Mulford sold "Finloy
has cracked his whip and now he will hear

The Chicago , Milwaukee & St. Paul has
disregarded tl\o ruling of Chairman Flnloy
that It could not make cheap rates from the
northwest to the educational convention at
Toronto without violating the passenger
pool agreement. In accordance with the
rules adopted b.v the pool lines the advisory
board designated the Chicago , Milwaukee &
St. Paul and Minneapolis & Omaha as the
roads which should handle the educational
trafllofrom the northwest byway of Chicago.
The Milwaukee & St. Paul held thut this
award applied only to business by way of
Chicago ami that it had a right to mnko the
same rates by way of Milwaukee. Chairman
Finloy decided otherwise , but the St. Paul
made the rate nevorthqlcss and will defend
its action.
The Wisconsin Central took the same
position.

Dentil UcciillB nu Incident In the
l-orrcst Divorce ; Cam : .
Probnbly not ono uorscm In u thousand
of that elder generation of pltiy ocrs
who usud to throng the theaters whore
she or her distinguished husband ap
peared could have tfuossed , till t/Uo
newspapers announced her deatli the
other day , what hud become of the
widow of Edwin Forrest , says Kale
Field's Washington. For tlio greater
part , the men and women who wore
loaders of souloty and the stage at the
time of the celebrated divorce suit have
paid their debt to nature. Ail live of
the persons most interested inthat suit
the principals , their respoutivo coun
sel and the referee have now gene their
way ; hence n bit of what t believe un
written history may bo udinissable.
The most wonderful oireunititatit'O in
connection with the case , in the judg
ment of most Now Yorkers , was the fact
'
that Charles O'Conor was' induced to
take part in it so seiiulilusly had lie
avoided that class of practice. I Iwpp-
to know that when Mrs. Forrest wen t
to him and asked him to espouse liur
ciiiiso , ho refused. Shoassuiod him if
the justice of lior claim. She
olTorcd him any fee ho desired.
She pleaded that she had al
ready announced to her friends her in
tention to rota in him , and hence iiis re
fusal would do lior serious damage by
implication. lint ho resisted all appeals.
Ho simply wouldn't touch tlio case , and
money couldn't buy him olT when ho had
once made up Ills mind. So Mrs. For
rest wont homo discouraged. Later in
the day the great jurist started for his
home also. Ho happened to board a
Fourth avenue car on which Mr. For
rest was a passenger. The latter hud
boon told that very afternoon
that his wife either had re
tained or was about to retain Mr.
O'Conor ns her counsel , and his indig
nation was at tlio boiling point. Dis
covering who it was that was boated op
posite him , ho rose deliberatelyand the
full sight of tlio earful of people , crossed
tlio uimo and trod all over the lawyer's
toes. Mr. Forrest hail u hugo frame ,
Mr. O'Conor a small one ; a physical con
test between them could have hud only
ono result. The insulted man therefore
shot a single glance at his antagonist
and strode out of the car and bade to his
olllco , whore ho wrote n
letter to Mrs. Forrest with-
rawing his refusal , and saying that
it would give him great pleasure totuku
charge of her case , though ho could not
consent to accept any fee for it. Tlio
way Mr. O'Conor carried that light
through to victory will always ho ro-
momborcd. IJo spured nobody who stood
in his way. Ilo antngoni/.cd roforou
and opposing counsel and drove wit
nesses u'ild , but ho gained every point ,
legal and tactical. It was perhaps the
most marvelous case of practising law
for revenge that WIIH over knownin this
country at least.
Philadelphia Record : A countryman
drifted to the phonograph in a down town
hotel yesterday , dropped Ills nickel and
started it off on a variety show comio song.
First ho tnlkod back at it with "sho ! that's
silly stutf ! " Then a grin of irrepressible do-
llirht. i'hen "Oh , go "way and shut up
your nonsense ! ' ' But ho kept the discs to
his o.irs till the last note was sung , and was
lust seen feeling n lump on the ouuldo of his
vest , us for another nickel.
