The Ultimatum of tho trades unions, which was made public Saturday, has aroused a torm of indigiiatioa and disapproval from Knights of Labor all over tho country, and telegrams have been pouring in upon the delegates all day from every part of the country urging thorn to rsjsct the demands. The four hours' session of the general assembly of the knights of Lubor Saturday morning was passed iu the discussion of the motion made Friday to refer the report ot th Executive Board on the relations of the order to trades unions to the Committee on Slat of th Order.

8 peer Ilea wer made by a number of leading mem-bars, and from their tenor it is certain that ths trades union will not get all thoy ask. It is mors than probable that the affair will remain unsettled. Attar a sbortdis-eussiou Saturday alternoon ths whole matter was referred to the eommitlws. The second proposition ol ttisCotniuittee oa Ijiws was ths recommendation that where practical unattached local assemblies ihould become part of district assemblies and transact business with the gunoral assembly through thum.

The floral display on Wednesday will be ef a nature betitting the occasion. The Blue Room, both from the peculiar tint of its walls and its oval shape, is especially adapted for its floral setting.

There will be no floral bell, horse-shoos or other set pieces, as the President is opposed to any display which is not simple as ell as elegant. As the ceremony is to take place in tne evenuig, at seven o'clock, by gaslight, the windows will no be necessary, so it has been decided to occupy the whole south of the room with a huge bank of floral magnificence rising to nearly the entire height 01 Uie room.

It is said that Mr. Powdorly plan for the future government of the order is the establishment of a State assembly. There win then be lour assemblies. Local assem blies wilt be subordinate to district assem blies, district to Stats, and State to National. The plan is reported to be very popular among those of the who have heard of it.

It provides, among other things, that no assembly but the State and National shall have power to order either a strike or a boycott. If a local assembly wants to or der a strike it must tlrst get the consent ol the district and then the State assem blies. Members of the trades-union commit tee, prominent among whom are P. J.

P. Hover, chief organizer of the International Typographical Union, and A. Strasser, president of the International Cigar-Makers' Union. laid their grievances before the committee on the state of the order yesterday. Mr.

Doyor reported the greatest harmonv be tween his order and the Knights. Most of the grievances of other unions were of a personal uature. The chief trouble between the cigar-makers and the Knights arose in New York over minor points of relationship and precedence, and the recent lockout of the manufacturers. The carpenters' grievances arose out of the in discretion of individuals on both sides in different localities. The hearing of tarts and suggestions ended with yesterday's committee meeting.

The committee will probably convene this morning with the members of the trades-union committee to try to reach an agroeineut concerning jurisdiction. BLOWN TO PIECES.
