Although the machinists' strike only

Although the machlnists strike only
started yesterday morning the backbone
of the strike is believed to be broken.
AIachinists all over the city are jubilant
over the success which they have achicv-
cd so far. Two of the largest ma
chine shops in Wilmington granted the
machinists' demands yesterday. AT noon
the Remington Machine Company grant
ed the request after 4 conference with
their shop committee. Several hours
later the Pussy 4 Jones Company also
conceded the demand. The Delaware
Hard Fibre Works followed.
Never before in the history of Will
mngton has there been such an orderly
strike Although about 400 machinists
were out there was not one disturbance
during the entire day which could be at
tributcd to the machinisis. They had
received their orders to act orderly ana
ubryed the command. Not machinist
was seen on the streets yesterday in n
disorderly or intoxicated condition. The
policr commended the muchinists on their
actions.
They feel certain of success i'll this
city. A prominent member OF the ma
rhinists' organization said last night:
w" nave every 'op'''' ~, ~ ~
meht ana mink we VIII WI. w. "'s
necessary for the occasion back of us.
We think that the strike in Wilmington
will be definitely settled by the last Of
