SAYS He FOUND
GOMPERS DRUNK
Miner Delegate Mcdonald

pers Denies All.

INDIANAPOLIS. Jan. so-That
Samuel Gompers. president of the
American Federation of Labor, was
"gloriously drunk" at the Seattle con-
vention of the federation, was the
charge made by Duncan Mcdonald. Of
Illinois, at the convention of the Uni
ted Mine Workers of America today.
During the prolonged cheers, liars, :"
"slanderers, were hurled at McDon-
aid, who sat on the platform.
Il am glad Mr.. Gompers is here. so

Donald, in beginning his reply to the
speech made yesterday by Mr.. Com

tel and the noise grew louder. Then

THE noise grew fierce and l finally
knocked on the door of the room and
was asked to come in and have a
drink When the door was opened
there sat Sam Gompers at the head
of the table, gloriously drunk. with a
bottle of booze in his hand.
The statement threw the conven-
tion in an uproar, and 1t was some
time before order was restored. While
the confusion was at its height, Com
pers called Mcdonald a liar and a
slanderer.
Mr.. Gompers followed Mcdonald
and denied absolutely the charge OF
drunkenness. He declared the state
ment "libellous, untruthful, vicious,
slanderous and without any form OF
honor.
Mr.. Gompers left the hall TO take
a train before Charles II. Meyer,
president of the Western Federation
of Miners, could speak.

Gompers." asserted Meyer. / firmly

Michigan strikers should have been
levied and that he failed to give a
satisfactory explanation why il was
not done. l reiterate that if the strike
should fail, it will be due to the fail

American Federation of Labor to levy
an assessment for that would be
the best way to get funds for our
strike"
Mr.. Gompers denied that he main
tanned a machine to keep himself in
office. and as an illustration said he
had had two offers of positions from
the Governor of a great State, one
paying $4,000 year and the other
$4,000, but had refused both to con-
tinue in the labor movement.
THE labor movement is part of
my life," he continued, land I'm
going to stick to it. You may drive
me out of office, but you can't drive
me out of the movement"
