MAcHINIsTs OPEN QUARTERS.
No New Developments as Yet-Na-
tional officer to Be Here Today.

| ON Saturday morning the forty odd
| machinists who We're discharged from
the employc on the Delaware and Hud-
son Railroad company on Thursday
| night llung their banner to the breeze
| They secured a large room in the j. f.
| Watt building, corner of Main street
| and Salem avenue, and Immediately a
| large canvas sign with the words Ma
| chiuists' Headquarters was tackled
on the building.
The discharged men have their head
quarters on the third floor \ number
| of chairs and IL few tables have been
| installed and all day Saturday and into
the evening knots of men lolled about,
talking of the situation. expressing
their hopes and fears, and occasionally
taking a hand in a game of cards. No
meetings We're held on Saturday.
Yesterday the hall was filled during
the afternoon, many Of the employees
of the company besides the locked out
men resorling there. No card games
We're permitted and the men sat around
discussing the events which have
taken place. The room was thick with
tobacco smoke. the soacc of the agi-
tatad minds, and the majority Of the
serious expressions.
Ii seems to be the impression of the
men that II strike is improbable
Methods of settling the controversy
with the company in a peaceful man
ner and without resorting to extreme
measures seemed To be the prevailing
topic. The great majority of the men
who We're so suddenly deprived of their
situation own homes and property in
this city, and the wish to serve the
best interests of the community as
we'll as their own enters largely into
their calculations. These property
owners, some of whom are also city
officials, will consider very carefully
their future actions.
The pecularity of the situation is that
all. or nearly all, of the discharged
men have been employed by the COM
pany ever since they were able TO work.
One of them said he had been working
in the locomotive shops for twenty
eight years and had never been called
down." much less discharged Anoth-
er, who has the sympathy of all, is Eli
Birs. gray-bearded patriarch. who
has been with the company over two
score years, and who has seen nearly
all his brother workmen grow up from
babies.
Mr. Rcnnic, tn, master mechanic,
donned overalls and jacket and cap on
Saturday and went into the shop. He
did a good days work and demon
stratcd his ability to handle a hammer
and chisel.

day night was a surprise, by reason
of the unanimity of the vote cast for
him. and 1t is thought by some of the
commoncrs that tonights struggle to

there is a struggle. will be of short
duration. Although both sides flercely
maintained at the last meeting that
there would he no backdowns on their
parts, IL is known that peacemakers
have been at work since to induce a
more common sense view of the matter

necessities of having important city
legislation to be looked after.
The select council will also be on
hand tonight, in order to hold IL Joint
session. The vote for the city solici-
tor is to be taken. In view of Solicitor
Stuart's decision of Thursday night
that a Joint session may be held for
the purpose Of voting for city officials,
there will be nothing to prevent this
vote from being taken.
There are three candidates for this
office. Stuart, the present incumbent.

city from Scranton. and who is 4

just how much strength the latter can
muster is, Il problem as yet. although
it is whispered around that he win
prove Il big surprise. Which OF the
two candidates, O'Neill and Stuart. he
will pull votes from. is also a problem
Reports have been circulated the past
week that Mr.. O'Ncill is out OF the
race and will withdraw.
One of Mr. O'Nclll's friends said yes
terday afternoon that the cX-mayor is
still candidate and would remain go
until the vote is taken. Mr.. Jordan is
practically unknown here and 1t is
hard to see where he will get his sup
port from, if both Stuart and O'Nell
are candidates, for the former is popu-
lar with the Republicans, and the lat
ter is even more so with the Demo-
c'ats. The tip has gone out, however,
to look out for Jordan, as he will poll
d large vote. Ii the vote for the city
solicitor had been taken last Thursday,
it is said that it would have been Il
tic between Stuart and O'Neill. each
having nine councilmen pledged at the
meeting of the councils then. Now 1t
is an open question and the result
