AN OLD CASE DECIDED.
President Gompers Sustafns the
Central Labor Union

The Central Labor Union met last ev-
ening al Typographical Temple. There was
a large attendance of delegates from the
affiliated unions, and the most important
matter considered was the report of Presi-
dent Gompers, of the American Fedora
ton of Labor, to whom was referred the
anneal of the Brotherhood of Carpenters
No 100 from the decision of the Central
Labor Union.
The trouble dates back nearly two years,
when the Carpenters Union placed one of
the local theaters on the unfair list be-
cause some of its members, who were en-
ployed there had not been paid their
wages. Since then the theater referred to
has changed hands, and as a result the
Central Labor Union lifted the boycott.
Carpenters Union No 100 protested and
made an appeal through the national
organization to the American Federation
of Labor At its last convention that
body referred the matter to the executive
council, which in turn referred 1t to Presi-
dent Gompers and Secretary Frank Morri-
son for investigation
Representatives of both the Central
Labor Union and Carpenters Union No.
1s0 were summoned before the special COM
mittee and after a thorough Sitting of
the matter, 1t sustained the action of the
Central Labor Union.
The subcommittee in charge of the ar
rangements for the observance of Labor
Day made encouraging reports. One of
