ELECTRICAL WORKERS MEET
DISTRICT CONVENTION OPENS
THIS AFTERNOON.
Delegates Will Try to Patch Up DIFF.
ferences Between Reed and
McNulty Factions.

Delegates representing the Reed fac
ton OF electrical workers in the organiza-
tional district embracing the District Of
Columbia, Delaware. Maryland and Penn
sylvania. reached this city last night and
this morning An informal conference
was held In the forenoon and the decis-
ion reached to begin the regular sessions
this afternoon in Costello's Hall, 9Th and
G streets.
The District delegates are John J. Pur-
cell and Edward Burke. 1t is said the
convention will continue in session sew
eral days in an effort to settle the exist
ing controversy.
The trouble in the ranks Of the Inter-
national Brotherhood Of Electrical Work.
srs became acute when the organization
divided into two parties. known as the
McNulty faction and the Reed faction.
The controversy was taken before the
last annual convention Of the American
Federation of Labor for adjustment 1t
was referred to committee and after
q number of hearings the committee re-
ported in favor of the McNultyites. Both
Reed and McNulty are said to have
and get together"
It is alie.ed tnat Reed afterward- repu-
diated the agreement and then by direc-
ton OF the executive officers of the Amer
lean Federation of Labor all central la
Dor organizations with which local un-
ions OF the Reedites were affiliated were
instructed to suspend such unions from
membership while they we're persona non
grata with their international body.
At a recent meeting of the Central
Labor Union of this city the locals OF
electrical workers. both affiliated with
the Reed faction, were suspended from
membership.
Whether the district convention in ses-
sion here will consent to return to the
fold or form another international union
could not be learned today. The In
ternational Brotherhood of Electrical
Workers il divided into districts. each
In charge of an international vice presi-
dent, and embracing a certain number
OF states.
At the headquarters Of the American
Federation of Labor 1t was stated this aft
ernoon that the representatives Of the
Reed faction had not called upon Frank
Morrison, the temporary head Of the or
ganizatton, during the absence Of Presi-
dent GOmpers In Europe.

Practice Resumed Today With Clear
Weather and Sm5oth Sea.
ARRIVAL OF RHODE ISLAND
Results Obtained on the Drill
Grounds OF Virginia Coast in the
Past Week Satisfactory.

NORFOLK. Va, August 2S.-With clear
weather and the waters of the ocean al
most as placid as those of a lake the
ships OF the Atlantic battleship and
cruiser fleet today continued their evolu-
tions and target practice work on the
southern drill grounds off this coast. Be
meath radiant moonlight the ships en-
gagged in target work for several hours
last night. The powerful searchlights Of
the battleships and cruisers were also
brought into use and their operations
could be observed until late hour from
the shores of Cape Henry and Virginia
Beach, four miles to the south.
Practice Resumed.
The booming Of cannon could be heard
family from shore during today, indicat-
ing the full resumption of both stationary
and battle target work. which was seri-
ously interfered with by the dense haze
which covered the ocean yesterday.
Though somewhat disflgured. the tor
pedo boat O'Brien and battle practice
barge No. ., which have been in use since
the first of the week as target boats in
the battle practice work. are both still

at her Old Point anchorage this forenoon
Three naval tugs carried supplies to the
two ships today and on the return a
number of seamen. whose enlistment have
expired. were brought in for discharge
this afternoon and tonight.
Work Satisfactory.
The work Of the ships on the drill
grounds during the week just closing
has been satisfactory in the main The
weather generally has been better for
target practice than during the previous
week. but the sea has been unusually
calm and the desired ocean swell and
choppy waters for target aim under Sc
we're conditions have been lacking during
most OF the current week. Better con-
ditions are hoped for the coming week,
when 1t Is expected that the fleet will
be augmented by the arrival of the At
lantic torpedo flotilla for other target
practice and nraneuvers.
