m ENVER, July 22.-The expected
controversy over the adoption of
President Meyers report occu-
pied practically the entire time of to-
days sessions of the Western FEEDER
alton of Miners convention. The in
PRODUCTION of the committee resolu-
tion recommending favorable action
was the signal for the anti-adminis-
tration forces, led by P. w. Flynn of
Butte, to launch their carefully pre-
pared contest.
The insurgents" opened their fight
with an attack on President Meyers
supplementary report, in which that
official charged the Flynn adherents
with attempting to disrupt the feder-
alton for personal preferment. A
statement of the controversy, pre-
pared by P. w. Flynn, was read and
its adoption was offered as an amend
ment to the committee report on the
presidents address.
The basis of the controversy was
found in the refusal of the federation
officers to credit the Butte union
with dts share of the one-dollar as
sessments authorized by the previous
convention for the creation of strike
fund, allowing it to apply on fed
Grafton debt of $4,000 to the Butte
local. From the insurgents state
ment it appears that about $4,000 of
this assessment was used to wipe out
an Indebtedness Of the federation.
A lengthy discussion ended in an
attempt by the Flynn crowd to have
Meyers supplementary report as
we'll as his statement tabled, but this
was lost, 149 to 1913. Before the vote
on the adoption of the Flynn state
ment could be taken the hour of ad-
journment was reached.
Mother" Jones addressed the con-
vention today in behalf of the alleged
Mexican revolutionists for whom eX-
tradition is sought by the Diaz gov
ernment.

Is Killed by Stray
Shot in Mimic
Battle

e EATTLE, July 22.-In sham
battle in the Alaska-Yukon-Pa-
- cific stadium late this afternoon
between 100 members of the Improved
Order of Redmen and an equal num-
ber of state militiamen, Joseph Nor
hinway of Everett, one of the Red
men, was shot and killed.
In the imitation battle. which was
part of the festivities of Redmen's day
at the fair, the Redmen made up as
Indians, were to ambush and attack
a stage coach which was to be res
cued by soldiers, in the approved wild
west style. All the combatants in to-
days mimic struggle were under the
direction of Major Otton Case of the
Washington National guard of this
city, who had cautioned them to take
the utmost care in the matter of u.s.
ing only blank cartridges.
In the height of the battle, Morhin-
way, who was between the wheels OF
the waylaid coach, fell bleeding from
wound in the abdomen. The firing
was suspended, the injured man was
hurried to the fair hospital and four
surgeons of the city were called tC
attend him. On examination they said
the wound was mortal and he died in
about two hours.

~ HEYENNE, Wyo., July 22-The
lavish expenditure of money for
champagne by William White
and r. StockwelI of Rock Creek, led
to the arrest of the two men at Lara
mie today, and the recovery of large
sum of money, believed by officers to
be portion of the swag captured by
bandits several years ago in a Union
Pacific train robbery at Wilcox.
The arrests followed spree dur
ing which the two men spent $445
for wine, White later depositing $4,-
020 in Laramie bank. White claim
ed he found the money in glass jar
buried in the cellar Of VIM. Taylor's
residence. All the money is gold coin
and bears dates many years back.
White will fight the charge of grand
larceny, claiming that Taylor knew
nothing of the money and that it was
a legitimate find Taylor states that
his wife brought the money from Den
YER few days ago and buried it in
the cellar.
