CONVICTED TRONWORKERS
A campaign for the pardoning of
the officials of the Structural Iron
Workers, convicted of dynamiting,
was started yesterday by the Chicago
Federation of Labor.
Frank NJ. Ryan, president of the
iron workers, who was one of the
% men convicted and who are await
ing action on the part of the Supreme
Court, made an appeal to the fedora
ton which was met with stirring APP
proval.
After his appeal a resolution call
ing for the circulation of petitions
calling upon President Wilson to par
don the union men, went through
with a shout. The federation went
on record as confirming Ryan's belief
that the men were railroaded to pris
on by Federal Judge, Anderson and
District Attorney Miller of Indian
apolis.
Ryan showed evidence that the
trial which was to bear the convicted
men from Indianapolis to the federal
prison at Fort Leavenworth was or
dered 40 days before the trial was
ended.

which was formed during the news

in sympathy with the locked-out
pressmen was recognized when let

Labor showed that according to law

however, was given No. f. 1t showed
