Miners Federation Adjourns and Plans Fund Drive
The Western Federation of Miners adjourned in Denver after a June 10 session. Denver won the next convention site with a 823 to 1d vote for Batte. Officers were sworn in and members face a collective assessment to fund the Moyer Haywood defense effort estimated at about 45000 dollars. The federation rejected affiliation with competing factions and invited both sides to Chicago in October to form a new national body. A new preamble pledges socialistic aims and Moyer and Haywood retain offices despite murder indictments.
