SOCIALISTS LOSE VANTAGE
Almost Complete Change in the Offices Of
Central Labor Union.
ONLY REPRESENTATION NOW is ON BOARD
omcers Report ON Two Matters in
COntroversy-Gompers Refuses to
Rule on Brewery Com
troversy.

The semi-annual election Of oficers Of the
Central Labor union Friday night resulted
in a victory for the anti-socialis,s and in
almost an entire change OF administration
Three Of the most important positions,
which had been held by socialists under the
former regime, are now in possession of the
antis, and the only socialists remaining in
office are on the board Of trustees. The fol-
lowing officers were elected:
President, Harry w. McVea, plumber;
vice president, Ed Augustin, stationary en-
gineer; recording secretary, J. A. Bapst,
stationary fireman; sergeant-at-arms, Otto
Neiderwieser, timer; trustees, o.. p. shrum,
brlcklayer; John @. Tierney, bartender. and
]. J. Kerrigan, carpenter.
No one was elected to the office Of imam
cial secretary, as John Pollan. who was
elected six months ago, holds the once for
one year.
In the early stages Of the meeting, before
the election Of officers, G. A. Robinson, act
ing president, made a oral report on the
result of his negotiation with the oleson
Chemical company, Tenth and Harvey
streets, to secure the reinstatement of the
ten girls who struck two weeks ago.
HE told me he wouldn't reinstate them
said Mr.. Robinson. II called his attention
to the fact that l believed he had violated
a state law by working them more than ten
hours a day, but he denied the charge. say
ing that he had not worked them more than
sixty hours a week. l told him that the
girls went to work at 7 in the morning and
worked until 10 and 1880 at night, for
which they drew s1.25 per day"
Upon motion the matter was turned over
to the law committee, with power 10 act.
The chairman Of the committee said he
would bring suit against tho company at
once for alleged violation Of the state labor
law.
G. e. Schmidt, chairman Of the law COM
mittee, reported in writing that President
Gompers, during his visit in Omaha a weeh
ago, had declined to pass upon the merits
OF the dif1culty between the Brewery Work
ers' and Stationary Firemen's unionA.
He advised against any overt act or vio-
lence, such as summary election" reported
Mr.. Schmidt, but positively refused tc
make any ruling bearing directly upon the
local situation, straddling In his inimitable
way the special point at issue locally be-
tween the two ~contending unions"

Delegates In . WrangIe.

The report Of the committee on creden-
tials was finished, announcing that there
were 2.253 votes in the convention.
The convention then took up tho question
Of adopting the recommendations of the
president. President Haskins Of Ohio
moved to amend the recommendation re-
garding the application of the relief trnd
to cover all existing strikes that have the
endorsement of the executive board.
President Mitchell announced that all ex-
listing strikes we're being cared for.
A motion to table the Hasklns amend
ment was lost. Mr.. Haskins made a strong
speech In favor of his amendment, claiming
that 1t was no more than Just that whatever
relief was voted should he apportloned
among all the strikers. ipH5
John P. Reese of Iowa urged that the
convention had been called to care for the
anthracite strike, and inasmuch as the rec
concentrations Of the president were based
on the minimum sum necessary to support
the anthracite men and that a further dis
tribution would weaken them SO that the
anthracite strike might be lost. II more
money was needed, the assessments should
be increased. Terrific applause greeted
the speech Of Mr.. Reese.
President Patrick Gilday Of district No.
2 spoke strongly in favor of distributing
the relief fund to all strikers. Several
long speeches, which we're not to the point
under discussion, provoked a motion that
all representatives should be restricted to
FIVE minutes. Delegate Fitzpatrick, who
made the radical speech of yesterday,
shouted from the gallery: "oh. If you
want to railroad this thing through, rail-
road It,"
President Mitchell offered to recognize
Mr.. Fitzpatrick. but the latter replied IN
a disgusted tone: "Oh, l don't want the
floor; what's the use."
Thomas d. Nichols, president OF district
No. 1. anthracite, spoke against the
amendment. Vice President Lewis asked
that the convention go into executive ses-
sion to discuss the assessment PROPOSE
tion and 1t was decided that the afternoon
session should be of ar executive char
lRcter.
Tomorrow morning the convention will
be informed by the Illinois delegation that
the miners Of that state have voted a do
nation of $50, 900 TO the cause of the an
thracite strike. The money will be availa-
hle at once.
