citation of Machinists, was interviewed
concerning the order sent out Satur-
day by National President James
O'Connell calling a 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
10000 men. On the contrary it will
affect close to 100000.
"The machinists alone who will be
called out will number $50, 600 but all
trades depending upon the machinists
for their tools will be brought to a
standstill.
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. It will do nothing
of the kind.
'In this section about 10000 of our
men will will be affected. the district

does not include half the number OF
machinists employed here"

MIR. Hill, are the troubles between
the Northern Pacific. and the Union
Pacific settled?" asked a reporter.
"There is no question Of any trouble.
never myself had any doubt that in
the end we should come out all right
and the trouble was not foisted upon
the public by US. I did not speculate
myself in single share and the
shares of the Great Northern and Of
the Northern Pacific which I have to-
day, shall keep, if can, until dooms-
day.
1.-The trouble which have been caus-
ed by this dispute as the papers call
1t, have been fomented by the papers
themselves. When we who are con-
cerned can get together and talk mat
tiers over the differences will not be so
great as they appear. They will not
be impossible of settlement. But
look at the ruin that has been DONE"
Mr.. Hill paused and turned half

were tears in his eyes.

they have been caught in the vortex

Chairman Coult asked the committee
If it would not be wise to organize a
committee on finance to pay the expense
of publishing and distributing literature
and for holding meetings and to organize
another committee on agitation.
1--WE have met defeat after long and
hard labor, but we should not give up
the fight until our aims are accomplish
ed" Mr.. Coult added 1--WE must go
ahead until next fall. so that the ensu-
ing Legislature cannot fail to grant us
the relief we demand
Mr.. Courier said that he had balance
of $40 left over from subscriptions taken
by the North End Club for river pollution
expenses, and he would be glad to trans
fer that amount to the finance committee.
"And you can put my name down for
an additional $780," he added
Discussion over the scope of the work
of the proposed committees ensued and
it was the general opinion that sufficient
funds to conduct an active educational
campaign ought to be the aim. That pub
lie meetings be called both in this city
and in all the municipalities along the
river
E. F. Hartshorn moved that such COM
mittees be appointed by the chair, and
that the committee on agitation be in
structed to communicate Immediately
with all the organized Boards of Trade
or municipal authorities along the river,
and arrange to have them meet with this
committee at it's next meeting here in
Newark.
Then Mr. Eastman threw a sensation
into the meeting. He asked first if any
member of the State Sewerage Commits
sion was to be appointed this year, and,
on obtaining the information from James
NJ Kelley that one member was appoint
ed each year, he said:-
..The reason ask is that we ought to
take some steps to secure the appoint
ment his year of a member who is not
looking to advance some private scheme.
A short time ago I had a conversation
with a member of the third house IN
Trenton, who said to me that ne had
talked a few days before with one OF the
members of the State Sewerage Commits
sion who said to him: There is likely
to be a lot of money in this Passaic pof-
luton business and j have made con-
nection with a prominent New YORK capi-
talist who is interested in a sewerage dis-
posal corporation, who wants to have US

There was an animated talk alter TINS
declarations but no names We're men-

nounced that he would take some tiIne
to select the members of the conlnilltee,

THAT PLANK ROAD BRIDGE
Hudson Freeholders Hest
tate About Ratifying
the Agreement.

The Newark PLANK Road may not be
opened on Saturday as was expected. The
Hudson County Board of Freeholders has
not yet accepted the terms of the agree
ment prepared and may not do so until
Monday. If it does then. Seven of the
nine members of the Board met with
County Counsel John Griffin at the Court
House yesterday afternoon and discussed
informally the provisions of the agree
ment which was presented by their legal
adviser and which have already been pub
lished.
1t was explained at the conclusion of
the conference that no agreement had
been arrived at because of the absence
of Freeholders Kuper and Kelly. Another
attempt will be made on Friday to obtain
the attendance of all the members to
consider the agreement and act upon it
and if it is unsuccessful a special meeting
a call for which has been issued, will be
held on Monday afternoon next and the
matter finally disposed of one way or an
other.
1t is understood that while the senti-
ment of the majority of those present at
yesterday afternoons conference was
favorable to the general terms of the
agreement, there were some who felt that
the trolley company should keep the road
in repair for year and expect no return
from either county for the expense thus
incurred.
While there has been no change in the
sentiment that it is an injustice to Hud-
son to compel its taxpayers to pay
nearly all the cost of maintaining the
road and bridges, the opinion prevails
among the freeholders that the agreement
is the best thing possible until the next
Legislature meets.
