Bitter Opposition and Violent Attacks ol rho Fifth Game Won by St. Louis by Kaksas City, Oct. 15.—President Cleveland laid the coruer-s'one of the projected cew Young lien's Christian Association building', on Thursday. His remarks on the occasion were as followe: IMMORTALIZING PRIVATE SOLDIERS THE THRILLING AND EXCITING VOY- Jir-VSAPOLIB, Minn., Oct 15.—The details of the secret session of the Knights ot Labor assembly on Thursday afternoon havo leaked out, and the reason for the lack of a press committee report is at onco evident. One of the liveliest discussions of the convention was Indulged in. The committee on boycotts introduced a resolution favoring the action of Master Workjtian Fowderly and the executive board in declaring the big Chicago stock yard strike off. This was the straw that broke tlio backs of some of the delegates from District Assemblies 24 and 57 ol Chicago. They came here with a feeling of bitterness against Fowderly and the executive board, with the exception of T. B. Barry, who represented the executive board in the strike. When the committee reported as above it was more than they could stand. They offered a substitute resolution roundly censuring the action of tho general master workman and the executive board. Charles F. Lieb, delegate from District Assembly 24, made a vehement speech sustaining the substitute. He said that the action of Fowderly aud other members of the board had interfered in tho matter and had defsnted tho purposes of the stock yard employees. He said that tho only man on the board who had treated the matter fairly and who enjoyed the full confidence of the) Chicago Knights was T. B. Barry. Mr. Barry, he said, had dona all in his power to aid the men, and had he had authority, or had he not been set down upon liy Fowderly and other members of tho board, tho strike would have been won. George A. Schilling, also a delegate from District Assembly i!4, made a very fiery speech, in which he roundly scored the general master workman and the executive boarti. No Avail. MUCH CONFUSION, BUT EVERY ONE Brooklyn, Oct. 15.—The fifth of the series of games for the world's championship between the Detroit and St. Louis clnbs wns played at Washington park yesterday in the presence of 8,500 persons. It was a flne contest, and judging from the manner in which the spectators applauded the men they evidently enjoyed the sport The cold winds that blew across the field did not diminish the ardor of the players or spectators, and the game on the whole was an enjoyable one.

Brooklyn, Oct IS.—"In all ages of ths world's history and In all countries the admiration of the people for their military horoef has sought expression in costly monuments built in honor of great oommanders.

From her officers and crew is learned an exciting i»tory of the sea which has not before been told. On Jan. 2U the Occidental sailed from Cardiff, coal laden, for Acapulco, under command of John Williams, who was accompanied by his wife and two children. The first days of the voyage were pleasantly passed until March 10, when John Craine, the lirst officer, issued a petty command which Seaman August Lofloclc refused to obey. This was the beginning of one of the moat thrilling and exciting voyages that has taken place for several years. /"Memphis, Tonn., Oct 15.—The president arrived in the city of Memphis yesterday, and the largest throng of civilians ever gathered within tho city limits was hero to welcomo him to the soutb. The game was won by the St. Louis men by figures of 5 to 2. They did play a better game in the field, but did not outbat their opponents. Throughout the game both sides played ball, to use a sporting expressiou, "for a man's life." Every chance was taken, and the St Louis men won on tbelr merits. Following is the score by innings: A delegation ot half a dozen gentlemen boarded his train as it camo to a stop at West Memphis, and invited him on {board the steamer Kate Adams, which lay moored close at hand. GEN. E. B. Fowler, and Fifty-seventh iifantry dedicated a like memorial a yeai igo, and the One Hundred and Twentyonrth regiment, known as the "Orange Jiossoms," dedicated a handsomo statue of Jul. A. Van Horn Ellis in 1884. This latter vng erected by Orange county, where the 3ne Hundred and Twenty-fourth wna reiruited. The memorial work now being lone extensively on Gettysburg field is all mder direction of the Gettysburg Battlefield Memorial association, incorporated 1864, imended 1805, 1885. The association has power to acquire titles, and at present 3wu3 800 acres of battlefields and stripe along the line of battle. The territory surveyed by the government as the field of operations comprises square miles. The Memorial association is manured by a board of directors elected by tlio stockholders, together with ex-offlcio directors from states contributing to the funds. The governor of Pennsylvania is exofllcio president of the association, and the govt-mora of all states appropriating money nro directors. Gen. James A.

Rhodes, ~ tho Ono Hundred The Adams cast off her lines, and to the music of an artillery salute fired from the lovee on the east side steamed up past the city, the band playing and the people along the shore cheering and waving their bats and handkerchiefs. The vessel went about three miles up stream to give the president an opportunity to see the works of river improvement there in progress, and turning, came back to the custom house, where, after a littlo delay, the distinguished guests wore lawled. "To save these young men, oftentimes deprived of the restraints of home, from degradation and ruin, and to fit them lor usefulness and honor, these associations have entered the field of Christian effort and are pushing their noble work. When It is considered that the subjects of their efforts are to be the active men for good or evil in the next generation, mere worldly prudenoe dictates that these associations should be aided and encouraged. Their increase and flourishing condition reflect the highest honor upon the good men who have devoted themselves to this work and demonstrate that the American people are not entirely lacking the appreciation of its value. Twenty years ago but one of these aaaociations owned a building, and that was valued at only $11,000. To-day more than one hundred such buildings, valued at more than $6,000,000, beautify the different cities of our lana and beckon our young men to lives of usefulness.
