inspectors OF the board, and it is be-
lieved that there will be less scab this

MACHINISTS' STRIKE.
1t Is to Made General Throughout the
limited States,

Chicago, March 19.-Another meeting
will probably oe held this evening by
the executive committee Of the interna-
tional association of machinists and the
administrative council Of the national
metal trades association, and last ef-
fort made to agree on a basis for the
adjustment of difficulties existing be-
tween the men and their employers. In
case no agreement is reached the mem
bers of the machinists' executive COM
mittee will leave the city to superin-
tend calling of strikes Of machinists In
various parts of the country, In pur-
suance of plan to make the strike gen.
eral. There seems but little prospect Of
an agreement, as the machinists insist
on a scheme for arbitration that shall
not be based on a return to work of the
striking Chicago machinists pending
the settlement Of their difficulties, on
which point the meeting on Saturday
night was unable to agree.

from Lord Methuen's presence at War

meditates an advance In force on Pre-
