from all parts of the hall. President
Huber had scarcely put the question
when his voice was drowned by voclfer-

of the delegates. About 1,400 union
carpenters are involved in the New
York strike, in which the question of
the "open shop is a factor.
Among the delegates, which number
over 500, are eight colored men from
the south; representing Florida, Georgia,
Mississippi, Alabama and Louisiana
unions. Porto Rico also has dele

In the first test vote the socialists
were badly beaten. The committee on
rules reported adversely upon the reso-

brotherhood, and the committee was up

of officers be held today was also voted

by a very large majority. The total
