Attitude to Catholicism
Minneapolis Minn Oct 10 The
Knights of Labor Assembly convened at
the usual hour this morning but little
business was handled the time being
consumed in hearing reports ana appoint-
ing committees There was not a full
attendanceand the hotel lobbies swarmed
with Knights Among the majority of
those there was unmistakable feeling of
satisfaction at the sentiments presented
by Mr Powderly in his report on the atti-
tude of their order and the Catholic
church An Associated Press reporter
talked with Knights of all religious de-
nominations and they were loud in their
praise of Powderlys report and his per-
sonal attitude Master Workman Lowry
of District Assembly 111 Bradford
Penn said Yes I must confess there
was considerable doubt about Mr
Powderlys feelings as well as some spec-
ulation as to what the sentiment of this
report would be but I am certain that
every man in my district is satisfied this
moraine There are not such large num-
bers of Catholics in my district and I am-
a Methodut a denomination today which
I think is more opposed to Catholicism
than any other I think religious belief
has nothing to do with our order and I
am proud of Mr Powderly and refer with
satisfaction to his remarks as to keeping
up the dignity of the order His remarks
as to our attitude toward anarchism also
struck home and today we stand upon a
w ll defined and independent platform
that every member understands
Floods
Gainesville Tex Oct 10 The rain
that commenced falling early Friday
morning was almost continuous up to
noon today nearly seventytwo hours of
rain The result is not surprising The
dirt roada are almost impassable so that
no cotton or country produce to speak of
has reached the city by wagon since Fri
dar Tae railroads have suffered seri-
ously in wrecks and washouts and the
only trains to reach Gainesville since Sat-
urday have been from Whitesboro on the
Missouri Pacific and from the south on
the Santa Fe On the latter road a freight
wreck near Panola checked the progress
of the southbound train Sat-
urday and none from the
north on that road has
reached Gainesville since Friday
morning and there will probably be none
for several days as the bridge across the
Washita is gone and the road is in a bad
fix for a considerable distance Chief
Engineer Sherman Captain Fred Loch
ana Trainmaster Tillnean left by a
special train this sfternoon for the scene
of the wreck and have been preceded by
the wrecking train The Missouri Pacific
train which went west Saturday of ter
noon is still west that is to say apart
of it is The locomotive one combina-
tion coach and two carloads of
cattle came in from Nacona yester-
day afternoon but when another
passenger will go to Henrietta or cocde
from tnere is hard to say There is a
wreck between Nacoua and Henrietta
where two cattle cars went through a cul-
vert and killed twentyfive cattle and the
track is in bad shape all the way The
wrecking traiE went west yesterday
morning with a number of convicts to
work on the road and returned in the
afternoon When asked as to washouts
on the road an official answered the re-
porter All the way to Henrietta and
he probably did not miss it very much A
train left this morning at the
usual hour for the east and sev-
eral passengers for Dallas were on board
but the train did not go beyond Whites
boro Some of the passengers report a
train wrecked between Whitesboro and
Sherman and a washout between Deni
son and Sherman The Missouri Pacific
officials are very reticent when interview-
ed as to trouble on their road and do not
give much satisfaction but it is evident
that the road is in a bad fix both east and
west and it may be several days before
trains will run regular between this city
and Henrietta
Red river continues to boom It is
higher than it has been for years It is
reportel here that the 100000 bridge of
the Santa Fe Railway across this river
has been weakened by the torrent and i3
in danger of being swept away It will
be a day or two before the extent of dam-
age done by floods in these parts will be
