INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Aug. Fifty
delegates from Knights of Labor assem-
blies and trade unions throughout In
diana met here to-day in annual con-
vention as state federation of trades,
each of the delegates being duly accred-
tied from their local organizations.
When the hour for assembling arrived
forty laboring men from Fort Wayne
and other cities applied for admittance
and presented pass cards and other evil
dences of good standing as Knights
of Labor. Not having credentials from
the local organizations which they pro-
fesSed to represent, the doors were
barred against them and the meeting
was formally organized by President
Levy, of Evansville. The session was
secret and every avenue of information
was carefully guarded during the day.
When the meeting adjourned, however,
it was developed that the most import
ant action taken by the body was the
adoption of series of resolutions re-
garding Gen. HarriSOn'S public and
introduced as having originated in
Willetts assembly, K. of L., and charged
Harrison with being
UNFRIENDLY TO ORGANIZED LABOR,
in this: That he had opposed eight
hours as constituting days work for
letter carriers; and opposed the law
limiting Chinese immigration, and,
as senator in congress, had
voted and worked against its enact
ment; that as a citizen he had armed
himself and took command of COM
pany for the express purpose of forcing
railroad men to submit to eXactions
from corporations, and openly advocated
shooting the strikers down if they
persisted in demanding their rights
that he is corporation attorney and the
whole tenor of his life and acts is op-
posed to the interests of labor. The
resolutions closed with the declaration
that the laboring classes
WOULD NOT SUPPORT HIM
for the presidency. A resolution also
referred to Morton as national banker,
and one who is opposed to labor organi-
ZatiOnS. The discussion of the reSolu-
tiOnS continued for several hours and all
the speakers declared in favor of their
adoption. When the vote was taken a
delegate left the hall and one other
voted in the negative. the vote as re-
corded standing 4S to 1.
A resolution asking congress not to
remove the tax from whisky and tobacco
was adopted unanimously. Then the
