The Machinists are out.

Clipped from The Albuquerque Citizen Of April p. -
 Union machinists, helpers, ap- prentices and handy men, num- bering about seventy, struck ii,- dependent of a general order this afternoon.
 The trouble began at 1 o'clock when the base ball game closed, and the strike breakers, who in this case proved to be strike starters, walked into the shops to go to work. A few ot the most enthusiastic union men dropped their tools and walked out. The more conservative ones gathered in quads about the shops and held councils of war; but at 8 o'clock this afternoon very few union mach'nists re- mained inside the enclosure, and these are expected to walk out tonight.
 The strikers walked out peace ably. and although extra guards were placed on duty about the stockade. no serious trouble IS expected.
 bo,i.,m.ksrs will Probably Strike
 It was stated by several of the striking machinists this alter ternoon that the boilermakers will walk out tonight. but wheth- or or not this is true could not be ascertained. The machinists say that union boilermakers will not receive work coming from non union machinists. If such IS the case the boilermakers are sure to be out tonight.
 Apprentices tho Suffs~srs.
 Those who will suffer the most from the strike and who were backward about taking the step were the apprentices. Some of the six or eight apprentices {" the local shops had but a tew weeks to go before securing the'' certificates as finished mechanics and the few hundred dollars ir gold that the company holds out of their wages during. the foul years of service, but gives then when the term of apprenticeship is finished. If they stay with thu company thev will tor ever b' under the unions ban, and ifthey walk out they lose the money and the chance to finish then trade.
 A telegram received late thi afternoon gives the information that the strike will become gen eral among the machinists on tn entire system, especially on tn coast lines
