GREAT UNIONx ARE IN A FIGHT
Federation
Labor colorados
Bring

up the difficulties, but no word has been
received directly from him at his office
here in the Silver Bow block
The trouble between the two great
labor organizations grows out of an at
tempt of the Federation to exclude dele
gates of the Western union from the
Trades and Labor assembly of Denver,
central labor organization of that city.
Organizers in the Field.
Last spring, when the Western Labor
union convention was held in Denver, it
was decided to put active organizers in
the field in that city and a member Of
the executive board of the union was
stationed there.
The consequence was that many new
unions were formed there under the
Western body.
About two or three weeks ago at a
meeting of the Trades and Labor as
sembly delegates from two or three new
unions organized under the direction Of
the Western union We're refused seats
in the Denver central body.
This brought the fight that had been
brewing for months to a decisive head,
and President Mcdonald of the Western
union soon departed for Denver to take
part in the contest and support the
rights of the body he represented.
Secretary Smith Speaks.
ut is to be regretted that this ques-
tion between the Federation and the
Western union has come up, said
Clarence Smith, secretary of the West
ern body this morning. There should
be no occasion for it,
THE Western Labor union has always
supported the Federation in many ways,
notably in the matters of having it's
labels recognized and has not been try-
ing to fight it at all.
Last spring organizers We're set at
work In Denver, but they did not in
fringe upon the ground of the Federa-
ton. They went about forming entirely
new unions.
"These unions naturally sent delegates
to the Trades and Labor assembly Of
Denver. There was where the contest
really began.
THE Federation seemed to be afraid
that our people would get where they
could control the assembly and that
caused its people to be jealous of us.
Delegates Refused Seats.
Two weeks ago some Of the delegates
for our unions were refused seats in the
assembly and that brought the matter
W e' AiS""' Ao !. is at pieSehI w iidNS
more delegates, l think, in the assembly
than the Federation, but it requires a
two-thlrds majority to control the body.
1T will be seen by this statement that
if the delegates from either the Fedora
tiOn or the Western union happened to
have poor representation at a meeting
of the assembly there would be chance
for the other side to control things.
Il suppose it was the fact that our
delegates We're increasing in numbers
too fast to suit the Federation that the
representatives of the two Nr three
unions We're recently denied seats in the
assembly.
Settlement Hoped For.

straighten out the matter. l don't want

Northwestern Road Sewers TART
Relations With Tri.City
Route.
A SEVERE BLOW TO COMMERCE
Significance of the Move is a
Matter of Coniec-
ture.

The Chicago & Northwestern road
administered blow to the CONNER
cial interests of the three cities today
when it sent out notice to the effect
that with the close of business Aug.
all Joint tariff agreements and rates
with the Davenport, Rock Island d
Northwestern road would be can
celled, which means that the rela-
tions that heretofore existed between
the two corporations are about to
cease. The new road will not be able
to make further rates to points on
the North western line. The North
western has borne friendly attitude
toward the Tri-City route ever since
the latter came into existence, and the
notice just received sewers the last
lie that binds them. L am as
much in the dark as anyone as

Merely Some More OF Those Queer Actions.
The meaning of the unexpected ac-
ton of the Northwestern can only be
regarded as a matter of conjecture.
1t is particularly perplexing just
now that hopes were being raised that
the company might Etill get into the
three cities, and how far it is signit-
cant in this respect is as much of
puzzle "a anything. To what extent
the roads that have acquired control
of the Tri-Clty route may have figured
in the cause of the late order is like
wise purely matter of surmise.
There have been so many queer
things going on on railroads entering
the three cities ia the past few months
that on NEST propositions affecting
them the public has another guess
coming.

There had been bad blood between
Parker and Meth and some of their
satellites for some time and the first
physical encounter which led up. TO
last nights bruising occurred about
three weeks ago in a Second ave-
nue. saloon. On this occasion Meth,
it seems, was taken of his guard and
knocked down by Parker. Since that
time il has been known by friends of
the two men that further trouble was
due if meeting under favorable cir
cum stances should occur.
Last night Parker came TO this city
and spent several hours at the differ
