BAD FAITH CHARGED.
Politics Alleged to Have Played a
Part in Recent Arsen-
al Strike.
AN INVESTIGATION Is ORDERED

Committee From Tri-City Labor Congress
Machinists' Union Who Were Entrusted
to Speak for Their Fellow Craftsmen
Statement by T. E. Smith.
1t transpires that at the meeting OF
the Tri-City Labor congress Sunday,
which was an executive session. from
which everyone except delegates was
barred, there was a discussion rela-
tive to the recent strike at Rock ISL
ald arsenal. it being alleged that GER
tain members of the Machinists'
union, entrusted to speak for their
fellow-craftsmen to the end that a
satisfactory settlement of the arsenal
controversy might be obtained, acted
in bad faith, and that the failure to
secure the assistance of the national
legislators was the result of political
influence. These charges were made
in resolution adopted by the Twin
City Typographical union, copy of
which was sent to the congress.
Thomas 4. Smith, who prepared the
recent appeal to President Mckinley
in behalf of the machinists, said he
had become acquainted with the I'M
far methods employed, and con-
demned them, AMI upon his mo-
ton a committee was appointed by
the congress, of which he was made
chairman, to investigate the charges
continued in the resolutions.
Statement by Mr.. Smith.
MIR. Smith, in view of the fact that
publication has been given to this
part of the Labor congress proceed
ings, Notwithstanding that it was
understood it was not to be given out
until the charges were Investigated.
has prepared the following communi-
cation for the press:
Rock Island, Aug. 15.-Editor of
The ARGUS: The article in this
mornings Union under the caption
of "a New Light indicates that 1
preferred charges against Machinists'
union No. 35S at the meeting of the
Labor congress last Sunday. This is
not true. The charges now pending
against them, and which are now be-
ing investigated, were unanimously
voted by Twin-City Typographical
union and sent to the secretary of the
Labor congress under seal of the
Typographical union, and were read
before the congress.
Again, the actual intention of the
charges was meant to ferret out those
among the machinists who have at
tempted to use that union to further
their own selfish ends, and were not
meant to reflect upon the entire men,
bership.
At the meeting last Sunday, the
matter in question was considered
and discussed in executive session.
which was understood. of course, that
the question should not be given pub
at this time. Having sent
out the business of the congress which
was deemed proper to give out, re-
Trained from handing the machinists'
controversy to the press, but it is
that the element which is
now being called to task is the same
which violated their trust and the
duty they owe the congress by giving
out for publication matters which
were not public property, and espe-
cially at this early day. Very re-
specIfully. THOMAS E. SMITH.
