The thousand men. At the present time there are about 25O workmen and de- tectives aboard her, and every need is supplied them on the ship, so that they do not have to come out of the railroad yardsa A number of the striking boiler makers have already secured work else where, and those who remain here say 4 that they will win out in this strike, no matter what turns up.
 The more important clause of the ma. Y chinists' demand, has not as yet been * passed upon, and that is the request for a 15 per cent increase in the pay of the men.
 4 All sorts Of reports were current yes 'I terday as to what the outcome of the !, machinists' action would be. It is pos- itively stated that there will be no de- < termined action taken by the machin- 2 ists. They are waiting for a final an- swer from the company.
 The railroad officials are now taking up the grievances of the other work men affiliated with the car workers of the system. The blacksmiths have all ready been before the motive power de- lpartment, and the carpenters and car workers have still to appear before 3 them. While these meetings are going on answers are being prepared in the leases of others who have already been before the officers of the road. Just what the final answer of the company will be to the machinists is awaited with interest
 # All of the workmen living on the Northam had been set at work, and it was understood that the company had sdeclared that it found no difficulty in Igetting all of the workmen in this line |lthat it needs. All through the yards the notices warning people off the com pany's property, unless rightfully there, were conspicuous by their plentifulness. lone can see them everywhere.
 Yesterday afternoon delegates from the Boilermakers, Carpenters and Car Workers' lodges of the Consolidated system arrived here to take part in the deliberations which are expected to oc- o11pv tho raqt If tha meak Thaca da1a. gates will report back to their home lodges before any final action as to striking will be taken, and hence it may be week before the determination ot all of the dissatisfied employees on the road in the field of the carfworkers will
