The Hamilton bill. which was passed

The other objection relates to the pro-
lection OF public interests in relation to

UNITED MINE WORKERS
OF NORTH AMERICA
Charge That Lewis Tried to Pack
The Convention Brought on Bit
ter Fight on the Floor.

indianapolis. Ind, Jan. 19.-The
charge that the national administra-
ton of the United Mine Workers Of
North America, headed by President
Thomas L. Lewis, had attempted to
pack" the convention of the organiza-
ton now in session in this city so
that certain policies or interests could
be forwarded. brought on bitter
factional fight on the floor of the con-
vention today.
The anti-Lewis element, led by
Frank ]. Hayes. John H Walker and
Duncan Mcdonald of Illinois, and
William Green of Ohio, succeeded at
the opening of the session In suspend
ing the rules for the Introduction of
q motion by Hayes that the salaries
of the national organizers should be
suspended while they are in atten-
dance in the convention as repreSen-
tatives of local unions.
Between 80 and 60 OF the organizers
are m the convention and they have
voting power from many local unions
that are supposed not to be able finan-
cially to support delegates. Speakers
for the motion declared that a danger
Gus Capitalization of power had been
achieved.
President Lewis and his friends made
a hurd fight to prevent the question,
which caused violent scenes in last
years convention, from coming up at
this time but a storm OF protests from
a majority of the l.500 delegates settled
that all routine business of the con-
vention should be put aside until the
matter should be threshed out.
President Lewis finally said:
Very well. then; this filibustering
must take It's course and it might as
well begin now"
4 series OF heated speeches on both
sides followed and President Lewis an
nounced that he would be heard I'm his
defense before the matter was finally
put to vote,
