BARNES RESIGNS
FOR PARTY GOOD
Old Charges Revived Against
National Secretary of the
Socialists.
PERSONAL SPITE ALLIED
Had Paid BlaCknaiI Tribute to WO-
man for Many Years-Defended
by Berger.

Milwaukee, Aug. 15.-What is de-
scribed by his friends as an affair of
the heart has proven the undoing Of
y. Mahlon Barnes of Chicago, secre.
tary of the national socialist party,
who following attacks on his person
al characer, has resigned. His resig-
nation will be accepted by the party,
but in explaining the affair Congress
man Berger says that no man in
public life has as clean a record as
Mr.. Barnes and that the charges are
the result of personal spite and black
mail
Fourteen years ago, according to
his friends, Mr.. Barnes became in
vOlved with a woman. BIackmail was
paid for years, according to Berger
and other socialist leaders, and the
trouble was forgotten until a clergy
foes of Barnes, revived the charges.
PARTY Is CAREFUL.
The party is careful on the moral
conduct of its officials, because of the
fact that the Roman Catholic church
is basing, in large part, its war against
socialism on the charges that social
ism means, in its entirety, free love.
The Inauguration of a national social
ist lyceum bureau was discussed by
l. E Katterfold of Chicago at the
closing meeting of the national con-
ference of social democratic officials
yesterday afternoon. He told of the effort
that might be made through the bu-
reau to more firmly organize the par
ty in the United States by concentrat-
ed action by the socialist newspapers
to gain subscribers and members to
the party. A vote indorsing the pro-
ject was taken.
A resolution was passed asking that
the national executive committee be
instructed to call the next conference
just before the national convention
next summer.
CLASH NARROWLY AVERTED.
a resolution was adopted for the
Formations -aeEA 0eRtRaI .iufoEEaa alton 1bu-
