citation of Machinists, was interviewed
concerning the order sent out Satur-
day by National President James
O'Connell calling strike of all ma
chinists throughout the country on
Monday next, unless all employers
signed the agreement for a working
day of nine hours and an increase of
IL IL per cent in wages.
There is little doubt in my mind"
Secretary Wilson said, that the strike
will actually take place; but the en-
ployers have until Saturday next to
come to our terms. That is the last
working day before the date set for
the order to go into effect.
"The figures given in the Washing
ton dispatch are wrong. They say the
strike, if it takes place, will affect only
100000 men. On the contrary it will
affect close to 100000.
1.-THE machinists alone who will be
called out will number $50, 900 but all
trades depending upon the machinists
for their tools will be brought to a
standsti1l.
can erroneous opinion prevails that
this strike will mean the practical
stoppage f all work on public build
ings an6 lat contracts like the Rap.
i'd Transit subway. 1t will do nothing
of the kind.
"In this section about 10000 of our
men will will be affected. the district
of course taking in Manhattan, Brook
lyn and Jersey City. That, however,
does not include half the number Of
machinists employed here"

man was there and received them with
a mouth watering in anticipation Of the
good time ahead.
"Whut yer gwine ter do wild dem cab

The trouble which have been caus-

it, have been fomented by the papers

cerned can get together and talk mat
ters over the differences will not be so
great as they appear. They will not
