these sizes, as well as all the different

Denver, Colo, Dec. 10.--rhe four
teenth annual convention Of the
American Federation OF Labor was
called to order by President Gompers
promptly Mt 10 o'clock today. There
were 100 delegates and spectators in
odd Fellows hall at that time and
half as many more came in during The
morning session.
President Rhodey Kehan OF the Den
yer Trades assembly de ivered the ad-
dress OF welcome 70 which Mr.. Go IL
pers briefly responded. The latter
spoke feel!ngly OF the almost desperate
condition OF labor at the present time.
This was followed by complimentary
words for Denver and her energetic
people. Referring to the Innovation
OF holding this convention so far west
as Denver. he suggested that within
a decade the westward movement OF
industry might take the conventions
OF the federation to the golden gate,
As Mr.. Gompers closed his remarks
John Burns. the great English labor
leader, entered the hall and was greet
ed with a storm OF applause. He took
his seat at the left of the president

one OF the changes in the situation
from the past he attributed to the in
crease OF corporations He said that
while the individual employer might
feel sympathy for his employees the
corporation could entertain no such
motive. The action Of the federal g "
eminent in the Pullman strike WIS de-
nounced as tyrannical. The General
Managers association, he said should
have been held responsible for the de-
lays to the mails Capital, he said, con-
trolled the situation. either by influ-
encing elections or by purchasing the
members of the national and local
legislatures.
a vote Of thanks was given Mr.. Pat
terson at the conclusion Of his address.
