I.oui»-llci-uUr ST. Loins, December American. Federation of Labor began the third day's convention this morning, The question first raised was Uio admission of the Amalgamated Society of Carpenters and Joiners to the President Gonv tiera read correspondence in the matter wliich-showcd that ho had labored with tho amalgamated society until tho application had been recoivod. Prior to its receipt on llnySS, 16SO, was decided that when such application mads the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners, which is a member-of the federation, would lie consulted. It wasoonsulted, and a protest was received from its secretary, p.

J. McGuiru, against tho admission of the amalgamated society. PrcsWunt uompers uii! not refuse to grant tiic charter, but brought the matter bd'oro the convention. Dolcsnffl Shield of tUo United Brotherhood slid that his organixation could not consent to. a recognition of the matet! jciely.

Otter sjieakers followed, and presently the following resolution was offered by a representative ol the International Cigar- makers' union to dispose of the probable inference, from some portions of tho speeches' that a rejection of tbe amalgamated society was because It was not strictly American: it lias been proved to demonstration that it is detrimental to the interest of labor to have more than one organization in trade; be it Freoinnn, M'esley Linton and Samuel P. Brnun and Miss gnmated Society of Carnenters bo sustained. Theiutroductiou of this resolution stirred up the convention considerably, and strong speeches were made by several" of the delegates in support of it. of nil the arguments was it would be manifestly an injustice to the American workingmen, for the reason that after imported workers had earned a neat pot of money, which properly belongs to the American, they return to England and spend their money, which protection to American labor secured by labor organizations lias enabled them to do. The resolution was adapted The report of iha com CHAIRMAN COOLEY to riKwranily Fnuwnte ISoitdi Ullvo VJolutcil tho Intoretnte Law.

Revelations of crookedness were simply astounding, end evidence had come into tbo possession of the commissioners that would warrant criminal prosecution against several railroad officials, and tho worst feature was that every official examined admitted the facts, but said that he did it because others were doing it. borne of them even went so far as justify their illegal action on the ground that tho law was oppressive and unjust.
