MINE WORKERS PRESIDENT
is Removed From Chair at Indiana
District Convention.

Terrc Haute, Ind Oct 9.-Delegates
from nine local unions of the Eleventh
District of the United Mine Workers of
America met here in special session to-
day. While the purpose of the conven-
ton was given as for the welfare of the
organization it was apparent when the
meeting opened that an attempt would
be made to remove District President
Edward Stewart, of llymera, and James
Shiel, icc-President.
The removal of President Stewart as
presiding officer of the convention was
accomplished after Delegate John Ing
left, Of Linton, in stating that charges
were likely to be filed against the Of
iicials, moved that another presiding Of
licer be named. John McCalum, OF Car
Isle, was elected by acclamation. The
motion carried after President Stewart
said he was willing to surrender the
chair
1t has been charged Stewart showed
favoritism in adjusting disputes with
mine owners.
The convention adjourned for the day
before charges against the officers could
be introduced \ resolution was passed
instructing delegates to the next Inter
national Convention to urge that the

STEEL PRICES GOING UP.

Pittsburg, Pa.-Writng in the Pitts
burg Dispatch on the remarkable up
ward trend OF the steel industry, B. f.
V. Luty says:
Conditions in the steel market have
now reached such stage that the ma
jority of observers expect an actual
runaway market in the near future.
Prices have advanced constantly, de
mand has vastly more chance to in
crease than to decrease, and the pro-
duction can not be increased materially.
The pressure for steel is increasing
daily. All the steel mills are striving
for maximum outputs. but there is little
increase, as substantially all the steel
making capacity has been in operation
for more than two months, and as the
weather in August was exceptionally
favorable it is difficult to improve upon
the records then made"
