Its Appearance Causes a Sensation

indianapolis, Ind, Feb. 3.-The sue
cess of President Lewis in the con-
vention of United Mine Workers of

cheered.
The business of the convention has
again been troubled by the breaking
out of the personal animosity between
Mr.. Lewis and his opponents. Discuss
ing a motion to appropriate money
from the national fund to pay the ex-
mainder of the convention. Secretary
Ryan declared that che knew there had
been fewer delegates under the in
fluence of liuor in this convention than
in any other for many years"
The motion providing that each dele
gate should receive $15 on this account
was adopted. This added expense has
been caused by the unexpected drawing
out of the conventions proceedings in
long factional controversies.
A number of leaders today received
copies of an unsigned letter charging
that certain officials of the Ohio union
had divided a large sum of money paid
in consideration of their selling OUT
Ohio, the deal carrying a reduction in
wages of two cents a ton. The letter
created a sensation. The officers
