-MACHINISTS AFTER
 HIGHER WAGES
Membership in Union to be
 Opened to Specialists and All
 Workers in Metal Trades

James Fl. Smith of this city who has been special organizer of the Inter national Association of Machinists i. strike for higher wages at Boston is in this city preparing to start a movement here for higher wages. The work of advertising with the unions advertising wagon started today and there will. be a big open meeting to- night at MachinistsI Hall. The speak CTS will be Thomas L. Wilson, the vice president of the international organi- Zation and Joseph P. Coughlin, the general organizer of New York city. The machinists of this city who are not members of the union are invit- ed to attend.
 Orga nfzer Smith said that the plan afoot is to consolidate both lodges and do away with the class distinction between. specialists and machinists and too1makers. He said that in Boston 1,500 men went out on strike about three months ago and that all are back at advanced wages with the exception of about 200 Those that are out are receiving s8 a week strike Ebenehts. The wages secured in Bos- ton for the men was $3 per day for specialists; $3.50 for machinists and $4 for toolmakers. The high cost of living made the strike necessary. Be- fore the strike the specialists were getting $13.5O per week, the machin- ists $3.25 and toolnakers were working for from s2.75 to 8. per day.
 There are 5000 men working at the metal trades in Bridgeport who are eligible to membership.

Neices have been posted at the station in regard to the new de 1nurrage regulations. After the first of October all freight cars arriving in town must be emptied in two days, or S1 a day will be charged for every detained. A number of truckmen were discussing the rule yesterday and gave it as their opinion that the time is too short. At least, they said three days should be allowed. A man on GeenfieId Hill might have a car load of freight and find it very inconvenien6 to remove it inside of 48 hours.
