 Three defeats were the portion of the Lewis adherents today. The first was the unseating of delegates from nine To- calls of district No. 2 of Central Penn sylvania; and the second was the over whelming vote given for the seating of William Green, delegate from an Ohio local and president pro tenn of the Ohio senate. The third was the decision of the convention to seat 31 contested delegates of the Irwin strike field In Pennsylvania Lewis men on the floor of the conven- tion today referred to themselves as "the minority The opposition made use of their advantage by pressing the proce- dure of the convention.
 The decision to seat the 31 delegates from the Irwin fields means that the long strike in that section, which is op- posed by President Lewis, will be con tinued and that general strike may be called. With this contest out of the way organization of the convention which has taken more than week has been com pleted and the convention is ready to pro- ceed with regular business.

VICTIMS
 ARE DISCOVERED

New Orleans, January 24.-A gruesome reminder of the severe hurricane which swept this section on September 20, 19o9' was revealed in the finding yesterday of the bodies of Capt. Henry Katham and one of his sailors on the marsh near Dunbar, La, on Lake Pontchartrain. The bodies will be brought here for inc torment.
 Captain Latham was master of the schooner Seven Brothers. which piled in the lumber trade on Lake Pontchartrain, and from which no tidings had been had since the storm of over a year ago. His body was identified through the discov-. cry on the hand of the body of ring which was worn by the captain when last seen alive. The body of the sailor has not been fully identified. but is thought to be that of member of the crew of the Seven Brothers.

 Captain Latham was the last of fam-' fly of seamen, his brother having lost his life in storm on Lake Pontchary train several years ago. VII

and seven others were called before the grand jury.
 The delay in the service of the sub poenas by the sheriff was explained by him to the court as resulting from the fact that he had been busy cleaning up the testimony in the case of negro who confessed on Monday to compiicity in several murders. The sheriff said he was now prepared to get quicker service.
 None of the politicians, who on Sunday predicted a great exposure of vote sell ing, would stand by that prediction to- day. The general impression now IS, as freely expressed by those most vi- tally interested, that there will be no great revelation of bribery. It IS now openly stated by public officers that While there may be a few indictments, there will not be any startling developments.
 Foreman Woodward declares he has not got started yet and that when he has cleared the routine matters something will happen" M
 The scope of the situation has been shortened by the announcement by the court that the inquiry may go back only IS months instead of three years. The court has indicated that there is doubt of a conspiracy charge, the only one which under the ruling could be brought for period back of 1s months could be made to hold i E
