Hole Springs, lenn., June 10.- A'list promises to le the most momentous convention In the history of tnu lu ternatlonal Printing Pressmen's union is to be held here this week at the national home and headquarters of the organization. The recent strike of the pressmen employed by the newspapers in Chicago and ccvoral other cities is said to have caused considerable dissatisfactioa aiiifn the members with the present heads of the union. Criticism is aimed uart!- cularly at President George L. Ber ry, and It is reported In some quartets that an attempt will be made In the convention to oust him from office. Friends of President Berry, however, declare that the reports of dissatis faction are greatly exaggerated, and that there Is little probability of any attempt to depose him from his posi tion at the head of the union.
