Presid snt
The convention adjourned immedi-
ately after the committee report on the
constitution had been heard and passed
on by the convention.
"This has been one of the most sue
cessful from the standpoint of attend
ance and the amount of business trans
acted, and at the same time harmony
has prevailed turnout the whole ses-
sion," said Secretary Perry last night.
President White appointed Fred
Cousins of Seymour. George Terrell OF
Buxton, L. P. Joyce, Of Dies Moines and
William Heslop of Lehigh to act as the
committee on the miners home. The
location has not yet been decided, but
many believe that Des Moines will be
the choice of the committee.

write to President Mitchell in regard
to his ruling pertaining to transfer
cards, and to notify the local unions
of the same.
After some discussion Des Mdnes
